SensePost OSINT: Stalk like a boss

A course which needs no introduction (and yet we bothered to write one). This course, by SensePost COO Daniel Cuthbert and Jonathan Hargreaves teaches you how to harness information online to build up a solid dossier of intel and gives you the confidence, as an investigator, to research individuals, companies, organisations and internet traffic.

Course Description

Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) is publicly available information including radio, television, newspapers, journals, the Internet, commercial databases, videos, graphics, and drawings. We can mine and correlate this information to profile a person or company in order to find or track an individual, look for affiliations or look for relationships between people or companies.

This course teaches you how to harness information online to build up a solid dossier of intel and gives you the confidence, as an investigator, to research individuals, companies, organisations and internet traffic.
