April 2019 - OSINT101: From A Name To A Dossier
Imagine what could happen if a top executive at your company were targeted by malicious individuals, how bad could it realistically get? We're a team of pen-testers who posed this very question and spent a week performing open-source intelligence gathering targeting an executive in our company. By combining threat modeling techniques, and a vast amount of information we were able to gather, several tangible and exploitable threats were identified. Going beyond what a Google search will show you we'll share several tools and tactics that can be used to uncover surprising amounts of sensitive information an attacker might utilize. We'll also provide some key tips around online hygiene and some limitations around just how secure and anonymous you actually are.
