Request information

Through our OSINT Course you will travel, through the web, between search engines, media files, e-mail, social networks, learning to identify the many places to gather information. The latter must then be screened and sampled in order to select those that are valid, usable and evidential. We will learn that only through precise investigation processes, appropriate analysis methodologies and specific filtering activities will it be possible to achieve a verified knowledge of the OSINT world.

An important moment of the Course will be devoted to understanding how data, found through OSINT analysis, can be employed by criminals to structure a social engineering attack, compromising the security of the corporate perimeter by exploiting the human factor.

Aims

The purpose of the course is to provide the technical and theoretical tools for conducting OSINT research on the network. At the end of the course, participants will be able to perform an OSINT analysis using both manual techniques and search tools as well as assess the reliability of the information found.

In addition, learners will be educated about the main types of social engineering attacks that exploit the OSINT world to bring their attacks to fruition and learn how to defend themselves.

The Course will end with a “Capture The Flag OSINT.” This is a challenge that tests participants’ skills in using open information gathering techniques to solve problems and puzzles.

Prerequisites

No specific skills are required for participation in the Course.
