Do you need to go beyond OSINT in an investigation and transition into HUMINT? This blog post discusses developing and tailoring the right sock puppet persona for your target. Use it to gain your subject's trust and to collect crucial information. 👇
christina-lekati.medium.com/from-sock-pu...
Active sock puppets are designed to interact with targets. They are elaborate, involve higher risks & demand rigorous operational security.
Still, they play a pivotal role in investigations when crucial information is unavailable through OSINT.
Differentiating Between Passive & Active Reconnaissance:
🌐Passive: Accessing publicly available information without direct interaction with a target or triggering security alerts
🌐Active: Involves engaging with a target directly. You become noticed and deal with higher risks.

digital-trails.academy/p/fundamenta...
Online infiltration operations require advanced sock puppet accounts. To get a criminal to "trust" your online persona and interact with it, you need to think like them and reflect some key elements.
What is the right online persona to get the job done?

Social Media Intelligence... What can we really find about a subject?
An entire world unfolds right in front of your eyes, if you know what to look for...and how 👨🏻💻🕵🏻♀️
OSINT SOCMINT
How? You may ask. Don't you worry. Here you are:
digital-trails.academy/p/fundamenta...
Can you dive into an OSINT investigation without applying proper OPSEC before? That's risky.
Conduct SOCMINT on a subject & leave out the rest of their digital foortprint? Argh, no.
Can you learn how to use & combine those important aspects & more? Yes, you can and you will ⬇️
Did we mention?
All participants that complete the class are eligible to receive:
🎓 Their certificate of completion
📕 Their Student Notebook
🎁 A little gift from us to accompany their future investigations!
We are particularly proud of this course as we have actively seen it provide an edge in the sphere of online investigations by uniquely combining #OSINT, #SOCMINT & #HUMINT. For that reason, it was also selected as one of this year's Black Hat Asia Trainings.
For the the first week and all our "early birds" , we provide a 20% discount with the code : DIGITALTRAILS
Ever since we started our class "Fundamentals of Cyber Investigations & Human Intelligence" we kept being asked to record it & provide it online.
