Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) Methodology

Rock is a disgruntled employee of XYZ Inc. and wants revenge. For this purpose, he created malicious software that automatically visits every page on the company's website, recursively checks pages for important links to other content, and indexes them in a logical flow. Using this malicious software, he collected a large amount of crucial information required to exploit the organization.

What type of software did Rock develop?

  • A Web spider
  • B Web fuzzer
  • C Web scanner
  • D Web proxy
