OSINT is an incredible tool for understanding the reality of our day and age. Its an important tool for anyone, not just IT or cyber security. If you want to be able to investigate claims, events, trends, people, organizations - OSINT is the tool and skillset that can do it for you. Investigative journalist, red team, blue team, or just like me a hobbyist... it is one of the few tools anyone can use to discern reality and fiction, see who is behind a website or movement, and tell lies and truth apart in the sea of misinformation that is the modern world.
I took an 85 hr course on OSINT from Michale Bazzell, and THAT was just the tip of the iceberg on learning OSINT. Thank you for the recommendation for additional reading.
Michael Bazzell has some great resources, and definitely knows his chops. But absolutely, it's just the tip of the iceberg! Many more experts out there to follow.

This is exactly the video I've been looking for. Perfect. A clear and concise overview of OSINT and many great resources to continue my education. Thanks!

My favorite story of osint was rhe time 4chan tracked down the you will not divide us flag. They used flight trackers, star positions, sounds in the video and social media to track down where it was located. Not totally supporting what they did but sorta opened my eyes to what was possible. Internet historian did a whole series on it. It was so ridiculous that it ended up just being funny.
This video and your channel is one of the best resources I've found and I've searched through a lot! Currently doing a degree in cyber and I've been doing osint on all the students in my class lol 😂 it's shocking how all their social is public open and they are doing a cyber degree!!
Thanks for the compliment! Yes a lot of people operate with high-trust for online services. We're entering a world where privacy and security are becoming more aligned. Gather information is the step one to targeting someone!
3 videoclips from your youtube channel and I've learned more than an entire semester on school....Bad jokes aside, they don't teach the good stuff like this in highschool...moral, they should...regardless, your videoclips are amazing edited, scripted, and I love the way you teach...you should become a teacher:)
Glad yt algorithm recommended this channel to me. Subbed. I am not looking to cyber security. But looking into BI which I think osint will be very useful. Looking forward to unpack this.
I'm a tradesman and like watching these type of videos. IMO it's useful for most people to have a basic understanding of this stuff to protect yourself. Darkness diaries is another channel I've been binge watching.
Thanks for this. It provides a possible answer I had to a question about how a client whose account info was compromised might have ended up in that situation, even though he swore he changed his pw regularly, shredded old bills and credit offers and was "careful" not have his PII floating around on the web.
your explanation is super clear and its led me to build a good learning strategies. brother please if you can please talk about any malware in technical level. for example explain in depth level about keyloggers to understand how real world malwares looks like and how they work in technical level.
iam crazy about your channel excellent content well order and great teaching keep doing with new content and video sure you will get million subscribers
@@Cyberspatial start a hacking series in order from scratch with your teaching skill that would be excellent. well apparently most hacking channels are irrelevant
I have questions. Is Osint legal and is it harmful to use it(through apps or websites) eg: when you search someone's name or email would your informations or the person's that you investigate get leaked or tracked?
How does OSINT facial recognition handle the emerging technology of CGI facial mapping which is increasingly becoming a common feature for play and meme time? While good for those things, the efficacy for this in committing a fraud or framing a person can't go unnoticed.
One day there's going to be a data breach leaking facial recognition databases. OSINTers will be able to use that for investigations privately on their own computers.
Back in the day one could easily get a lot of information by just googling someone's email or using quotes for specific phrases. Are there any entities apart from Google that are still able to use the search engine the old way?
You can still do that with Google's advanced search operators. The functionality definitely, depends on the search engine, though there's value in trying all of them. There's a lot of data-specific search engines now too. Pipl > people, for example.
It's best to be pretty OS-agnostic overall. All of them are exploitable. A good rule of thumb to follow is to pick a brand that makes both the hardware and software. Better compatibility and faster security updates.
Best way to start is to learn "what's out there?" Find out what you don't know first. What are the different sub-fields related to cybersecurity and which ones interest you? Books are a great way to gather broad knowledge.

Raghav Kumar it depends on where you are in your cybersecurity journey and what your goals are. If you just want to level up your personal security, then you may not need to learn programming languages. If you’re early in a career, it’s probably more important to learn the skills in our “Top 5 Skills” video. But if you’re looking for a long term career, it’s certainly valuable to learn programming languages. You can see the recommendations from a current red team operator here: th-cam.com/video/nSTAkhe-gh0/w-d-xo.html
IntelX.io is super dangerous if the pastes lead to access breaches. Especially where a good portion of the info is just readily available to the average joe
@@Cyberspatial Google analytics is practically pre crime for intelligence organizations if you throw psychographic profiling into the mix and switch up ad generation.... so yes. Scary things you think about delving into data and OSINT lol
Oh man I get mad when I hear the words ClearView, but at the same time I'm so happy my country essentially kicked out their business. IOW, 3 different provinces (similar idea to a state in the US) AND the federal gov. opened investigations into ClearView. So then ClearView packed up shop and just left lol. Pretty telling
They certainly are controversial, though I think the business is here to stay. Until the entire database gets leaked to the darknet for anyone to use, that is...
Please never stop making these tutorials. I feel like a hand is pulling my hand through a bunch of textbooks I had so much trouble understanding :"))
