The Power of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) in Conducting Background Checks

Nothing helps out security more than information.  Heck, it's the first part of our professions name!  In Infosec, knowledge is key and sometimes we need to roll up our sleeves to get the information we need from various open source outlets.  I'm fortunate to have as a guest on this episode the man who literally wrote the book on OSINT techniques, Michael Bazzell.  We discuss OSINT techniques as well as his recently updated book.  Have yourself a listen and hear the advice Michael has for starting your own OSINT adventures.
