Shortly after setting up counterintelligence.pl, I also started the RonanVM project, i.e. a virtual machine image adapted to conduct OSINT investigations. Unfortunately, I don't have that much time to develop the project at the pace of Kali Linux, but I had the opportunity to make some changes and improvements recently. Moving on to the specifics: I also encourage you to use, in my opinion, the project […]
The name of the blog obliges us, therefore, this time we deal with the latest events in the field of catching intelligence officers and fighting the operations they conduct.

Some may have expected much more intense cyber activities in Ukraine, attacks on industrial networks or the massive use of wipers. Although there are no signals indicating [...]
TL; DR - If you need a pre-configured virtual machine for your OSINT investigations, take a look here for a ready OVA image that you can import into VirtualBox and have a clean system ready. There you will also find a list of tools and additional information about the project. And now the longer version ... Creating a virtual machine for [...]
Collecting information as part of OSINT is often based on finding traces of users' online activity, such as logging into social networks or using the same e-mail address to register on multiple portals. It must not be forgotten, however, that the same applies to ourselves when we try to obtain this information, often [...]
