​

Day 1: Advanced Target Identification & Deep Digital Footprints

​

• Session 1: Foundations of Anonymous Research & Operations

  • Setting up secure, untraceable virtual investigation environments (sock puppets and research personas).

  • Operational Security (OPSEC) protocols to prevent counter-reconnaissance and attribution by targets.

  • Advanced search operators and hidden database extraction techniques.

• Session 2: Identifying, Analysing, and Tracking Targets Anonymously

  • Methods for uncovering hidden identities across social media, forums, and the dark web.

  • Analysing target networks, relationships, and online behaviours without alerting the subject.

  • Automating target monitoring using open-source alert systems and scrapers.

• Session 3: Practical Lab – Initial Target Triage

  • Hands-on Workshop: Students will be given a minimal digital lead and must safely build out a comprehensive target profile using the custom tools provided.

  • ​

Day 2: Geolocation, Tracking, and Advanced Software Integration

​

• Session 4: Advanced Geolocation Techniques

  • Extracting and analysing EXIF data and metadata from imagery and files.

  • Image and video verification: Identifying exact physical locations using satellite imagery, architectural clues, weather patterns, and landmarks.

  • Utilising open-source mapping tools, IP geolocation datasets, and wireless network mapping (Wi-Fi positioning system tracking).

• Session 5: OSINT Tool Deployment & Rigorous Result Analysis

  • Deploying automated collection tools (e.g., Maltego, SpiderFoot, and custom command-line scrapers) to gather large-scale intelligence.

  • Data sanitisation and triage: Filtering out false positives, verifying automated discoveries, and assessing source credibility.

  • Advanced analysis methodologies: Transforming raw, disparate data points into structured, actionable intelligence reports.

• Session 6: Digital Footprint Tracking & Pattern Analysis

  • Tracking domain ownership, historical website changes, and interconnected digital infrastructure.

  • Analysing breached data repositories legally and ethically to find historical target footprints.

  • Chronological timeline mapping of a target's physical and digital movements.

• Session 7: Capstone Live Investigation & Resource Deployment

  • Interactive Workshop: A real-time, simulated tracking operation requiring students to deploy OSINT tools, critically analyse the resulting data, and combine geolocation techniques under time constraints.
