The CTOC-Marine (CTOC-M) training program was designed to help enforcers analyze, investigate and dismantle trafficking syndicates using marine pathways. CTOC-M is an adaption of CTOC, which was born from the realization that no one agency or country can address the problem of counter transnational crime alone.
CTOC Marine Manual is available in Bahasa Indonesia, Bahasa Malaysia and English.

Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) is data collected from publicly available sources to provide the intelligence needed on a given operation. OSINT is also the process of collecting and analyzing of said data to produce a comprehensive understanding of an individual, collective, place, or thing.
According to the US Intelligence Community, “OSINT is primarily used in national security, law enforcement and business intelligence functions. It is of value to analysts who use non- sensitive information in answering classified, unclassified, or proprietary intelligence requirements across all intelligence disciplines.” In the context of this manual, open-source refers to information that can be collected from the Internet, is within the public domain, and is available to be used in building an online investigation of a target entity, which may be a person, group of people or a company. OSINT is made up of, and built on many pieces of information, known as breadcrumbs. Available in English and Bahasa Indonesia.

Wildlife trafficking, an industry worth billions of dollars annually, is leading to the degradation of nature and the communities that live around them. The illegal trafficking of wildlife and wildlife products is strengthening criminal syndicate networks and in turn corruption, undermining governance and weakening the security of affected communities.
As both a supplier and consumer, Southeast Asia lies at the heart of the trade and plays a major role in the international fight against wildlife trafficking. Giving the region and it's actors the tools and strategies will help to dismantle these criminal syndicates and set an example for the rest of the international community. This report maps the evolution and trajectory of wildlife and counter trafficking in Southeast Asia, while analyzing what has (and has not) worked and where the region should go next. The research points to challenges, opportunities, and a pathway forward.

With pangolin species in Asia facing catastrophic decline due to poaching, traffickers have increasingly started to source scales from African pangolins to cater to Asian demand. This demand can only be countered by a comprehensive response encompassing local and regional law enforcement cooperation, involving stakeholders from pangolin habitat areas, and reducing consumer demand. This report traces the rise of the trade, and offers recommendations on ending it.

The Case for a Planetary Security Program
In Rome, Italy, leaders of the world’s 20 wealthiest nations convened to address global priorities under the banner “People, Planet, Prosperity.”
High on this year’s G20 agenda is improving COVID-19 vaccine rollout to lower-income countries, and improving preparedness for future outbreaks. This is of course badly needed. But it is equally important to take a step further and examine the root caused of zoonotic outbreaks in order to prevent new, potentially more destructive ones from happening in the first place, sparing us from undergoing entirely new inoculation and recovery efforts all over again.
It’s time to re-examine the most pressing threats to our planet and how governments plan, and spend our money, to stop them.
