The world of open-source intelligence (OSINT) continues to rapidly evolve, growing larger and more complex as new tactics and tools emerge. The constant change in this space drives the need to stay current in the latest OSINT best practices and techniques. In this OSINT Spotlight live stream series, SANS expert OSINT practitioners Nico Dekens, David Mashburn, and John TerBush will welcome special guests from across the field to come and explore a new corner of OSINT.
Nico, David, and John are the authors of the new SANS course SEC587: Advanced Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) Gathering and Analysis. In SEC587 you will learn how to perform advanced OSINT Gathering & Analysis as well as understand and use common programming languages such as JSON and Python. This is an advanced fast-paced course that will give seasoned OSINT investigators new techniques and methodologies and entry-level OSINT analysts that extra depth in finding, collecting, and analyzing data sources from all around the world.
