You Should Know: Essential OSINT Commands & Techniques
1. Image Geolocation with ExifTool
Extract metadata from images to identify locations:
exiftool -GPSLatitude -GPSLongitude image.jpg
For bulk processing:
exiftool -csv -GPSLatitude -GPSLongitude .jpg > locations.csv
2. Finding Email Addresses with Hunter.io (API)
Use `curl` to query Hunter.io’s API (replace `API_KEY` and DOMAIN
):
curl -X GET "https://api.hunter.io/v2/domain-search?domain=DOMAIN&api_key=API_KEY"
3. OSINT Framework (SOWEL) Automation
Leverage Dmitry Danilov’s SOWEL Framework with Python:
import requests response = requests.get("https://api.sowel.io/search?query=target") print(response.json())
4. Future OSINT: AI-Powered Recon
Use Maltego + ChatGPT for automated entity recognition:
maltego --transform "DomainToIP" --input "example.com" | grep -Eo '[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}'
5. Windows OSINT: Harvesting Data with PowerShell
Extract browser history (Chrome) via PowerShell:
Get-Content "$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\History" | Select-String "http"
What Undercode Say
OSINTCON 2025 highlights the evolution of OSINT from manual scraping to AI-driven intelligence. Key takeaways:
– Metadata is gold: Always scrub EXIF data before sharing images (exiftool -all= image.jpg
).
– Automate ethically: Use APIs (Hunter.io, SOWEL) to avoid IP bans.
– Future-proof skills: Learn Maltego transforms and AI-assisted OSINT (e.g., ChatGPT + Shodan).
Linux/Win Commands to Master:
Linux: Track domain changes (WHOIS + diff) whois example.com > whois1.txt && sleep 3600 && whois example.com > whois2.txt && diff whois1.txt whois2.txt
Windows: Extract Wi-Fi passwords netsh wlan show profile name="SSID" key=clear
Prediction
By 2026, AI-driven OSINT tools will dominate, reducing investigation time by 70%. Expect tighter privacy laws, pushing OSINT professionals toward legal automation frameworks.
Expected Output: A high-value OSINT guide with actionable commands, registration links, and future trends.
