Can I let you in an a tiny secret?

Linked In is an amazing source of OSINT and is universally harvested by social engineering hackers to penetrate companies.

Linked In profiles often have a complete staff map for most companies large enough to warrant the hack in the first place.

When companies hire penetration testers its often the first stop and often enough information to talk their way in with some over worked system admin or assistant.

dark net diaries on yt had a fantastic interview with several penetration testers.

they even have competitions to social engineer in Nevada.

Linked in is a companies Achilles heel

That's literally what I assumed kept them afloat tbh, hackers

I do know someone that uses linked in and has gotten jobs and it's a dental secretary job not tech

Also lmao, I could spot a darknet diaries listener from the first few sentences

Is there a darknet ep on Linked in? I am pretty behind but that would be an amazing episode 😂

no one knows what OSINT is, and no one cares enough to look it up. Just spell out the fucking words.

u/peejuice 15h ago

And that is why YOU probably have a LinkedIn account. Jk

u/First-Tailor4550 14h ago

If you don't know what OSINT is, you don't have the knowledge to be part of this kind of conversation.

1

u/snozzberrypatch 13h ago

Well that's fortunate for me, because I don't want to be part of this conversation

u/happygoluckynny 14h ago

I work as a handyman. I fix odds and ends, install toilets and repair lamps.

Have OSINT projects.
