#TIL about OSINT (open source intelligence, the process of gathering information utilizing public resources) & I’m like wait a min, I’ve been doing this for FUN since I was a kid and there’s whole methodologies and techniques? It’s never too late to learn and expand your skillset

I always thought I was weird bc I’ll just randomly go on deep dives and find more information about a person or case. I’ll have barely one or 2 clues or pieces of information about something & investigate. That’s what I did for a lot of missing person cases for instance.

Infosec is so fire y’all. Deadass.

When I started my coding journey I was initially trying to get into infosec lol 😂 but I had no idea what I was doing, ended up in web dev. But I’m grateful I followed so many infosec ppl early on bc now i can creep on y’all timelines and figure out what I need to learn 🤌🏽
