The SITE Institute, or the Search for International Terrorist Entities, was a non-profit organization that monitors the Internet to uncover possible terrorist activities.
Passing the Torch to SITE Intelligence
The SITE Institute's website now explains that the organization no longer exists:
"After several years of public service, the SITE Institute, a non-profit organization, has ceased its operations. Its assets have been sold and the proceeds transferred to other non-profit organizations consistent with the educational and charitable mission of the SITE Institute. Some of the activities formerly conducted by the SITE Institute will now be carried out by the SITE Intelligence Group, a for-profit entity."Official Site: SITE Institute
