Free Download Open Source Intelligence Methods and Tools Book in PDF written by Nihad A. Hassan & Rami Hijazi and published by Apress Media LLC, New York.
According to the Author, ” Open Source Intelligence Methods and Tools focuses on building a deep understanding of how to exploit open source intelligence (OSINT) techniques, methods, and tools to acquire information from publicly available online sources to support intelligence analysis. The harvested data can be used in different scenarios such as financial, crime, and terrorism investigations as well as in more regular tasks such as analyzing business competitors, running background checks, and acquiring intelligence about individuals and other entities. This book will also improve your skills in acquiring information online from the surface web, the deep web, and the darknet.
Many estimates show that 90 percent of useful information acquired by intelligence services comes from public sources (in other words, OSINT sources). Social media sites open up numerous opportunities for investigations because of the vast amount of useful information located in one place. For example, you can get a great deal of personal information about any person worldwide by just checking their Facebook page. This book will show you how to conduct advanced social media investigations to access content believed to be private, use advanced search engines queries to return accurate results, search historical deleted versions of websites, track individuals online using public record databases and people-searching tools, locate information buried in the deep web, access and navigate the dark web, collect intelligence from the dark web, view multiple historic satellite images and street views of any location, search geolocation information within popular social media sites, and more.
What the Book Is Not
This book is not about the history of open source intelligence, and it does not discuss at length the legal issues of personal reconnaissance online. We will not talk about policies and regulations that govern different countries or business organizations. Although some of these issues are discussed briefly in Chapter 1, the main aim of this book is to create a guidebook to support all types of investigations. You can read the chapters in any order because each chapter is considered an isolated unit that discusses the chapter subject’s comprehensively.
