Previous📚 Visual Threat IntelligenceNextDiscovery of information about a phisher through OSINT

Last updated 1 month ago

OSINT, which stands for "Open Source Intelligence," refers to the collection and analysis of information from open and publicly accessible sources. These sources include data available on the Internet, media outlets, social networks, public publications, government databases, and other resources that can be accessed without requiring illegal methods or intrusion techniques.

"The discovery of the potential of open sources dates back to World War II, when the American Office of Strategic Services realized that it could estimate German losses by reading the obituary columns in German newspapers available in Switzerland" [Rawnsley, 2015]
