F3EAD (Find, Fix, Finish, Exploit, Analyze, Disseminate) is a targeting methodology to conduct operations. This is often used in a military or cybersecurity context.

  • Find: identify potential targets through intelligence and surveillance.

  • Fix: confirm target’s location and status to confirm accuracy.

  • Finish: execute operations to neutralize or capture the target.

  • Exploit: collect and analyze intelligence from the target or the operation itself.

  • Analyze: integrate the exploited intelligence into the broader operation.

  • Disseminate: share the intelligence with relevant stakeholders and allies to inform additional/future operations.
