    What Investigators Need to Know About Hiding on the Internet

    When a person visits a website, blog, or social media platform, information about the person is visible to the site administrator, blogger, or social media company. This information can be used by a criminal investigator or analyst to identify and locate a suspect. It can also be used by a criminal to identify, compromise, and potentially locate an investigator. It is vitally important that investigators and analysts collecting information from the Internet, or communicating in a covert capacity on the Internet, understand these potential investigative leads and possible vulnerabilities.
