Cybersecurity Principles and Risks

The primary purpose of open-source intelligence (OSINT) is to:

  • A encoding stolen data prior to exfiltration to subvert data loss prevention (DLP) controls.
  • B initiating active probes for open ports with the aim of retrieving service version information.
  • C leveraging publicly available sources to gather information on an enterprise or on individuals.
  • D delivering remote access malware packaged as an executable file via social engineering tactics.
Explanation

Open-source intelligence consists of collecting and analyzing information from publicly available sources, such as public records, news articles, social media, and government reports. It can be used to develop information about an enterprise or individual without conducting active probing or delivering malware.
