Today I began assembling a list that will include single programmers and small teams that develop tools for #OSINT

twitter.com/i/lists/143622…

In this thread I will tell you which of these people are working on which project (please subscribe to them and put stars on #Github) 🧵
The thread is over for today, but I will have two requests for the #OSINT community.

1. Do you know any other twitter accounts of #osint tool developers?

2. Try to support these guys as much as possible (with star, donations, feedback)

SQL dumps (database dumps) for #OSINT

Super short practical course.

Thread🧵🧵🧵

(12 tweets)

#sql #mysql #phpmyadmin
(1/12)

In @GoogleHacking (exploit-db.com/google-hacking…) there are 176 dorks for searching SQL dumps, which may contain any confidential information.

Simple ex (pic 2):

ivanov ext:sql site:github.com

This query search all sql-files, which contain "ivanov" in #Github
(2/12)

Sometimes in this way it's possible find databases with information about orders, customers or employees. Inattentively, site owners forget to close them from indexing in robot.txt.

Such SQL-dumps may contain names, surnames, dates of birth, addresses, phone numbers.

Trying to identify a country from a photo

Part 1. 12 basic tricks for outdoor photos

Thread 🧵
Step 1

The first thing to do is to break the photo up into fragments so that you can examine each one individually.

The fastest way to do this is to use online tools. For example:

iloveimg.com/crop-image

(If you have a Mac, just press Command+Shift+4)
Step 2

Now look for interesting fragments in Google or Yandex

(by the way, Yandex has a built-in cropping)

It happens that the country can be identified by the model of public transport. If the photo shows "PAZ 4234", it is most likely Russia (but maybe other CIS countries).

The first thing you should do is just try searching for the file in the Yandex.Images service. In my opinion, this is the best service in the world for reverse image search.
Sometimes it is quite enough to answer the question, "Who is this?

Now it's possible to try to search for a person's profile in the Russian social network VK ( 1,109,563,766 faces in database).

But this method doesn't work very well with known personalities...
