Passive Recon & OSINT (2026)
Details
Passive recon (OSINT) is the practice of gathering intelligence about people and organizations using publicly available sources—without sending traffic to the target. This is a core cyber skill and a huge advantage for job interviews, meetings, and business development.
What we’ll cover:
• A simple OSINT workflow (collect → analyze → report)
• Free tools for people + organization research
• Google techniques to uncover site content and docs
• Historical data sources (archives, breaches)
• Turning OSINT results into a mini-report (portfolio proof)
