English | Tutorial | Size: 13.22 GB

With Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) being the engine of most major investigations in this digital age the need for a more advanced course was imminent. The data in almost every OSINT investigation becomes more complex to collect, exploit and analyze. For this OSINT practitioners all around the world have a need for performing OSINT at scale and means and methods to check and report on the reliability of their analysis for sound and unbiased reports. In SEC587 you will learn how to perform advanced OSINT Gathering & Analysis as well as understand and use common programming languages such as JSON and Python. SEC587 also will go into Dark Web and Financial (Cryptocurrency) topics as well as disinformation, advanced image and video OSINT analysis. This is an advanced fast-paced course that will give seasoned OSINT investigators new techniques and methodologies and entry-level OSINT analysts that extra depth in finding, collecting and analyzing data sources from all around the world.
What You Will Learn
SANS SEC587 is an advanced Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) course for those who already know the foundations of OSINT. The goal is to provide students with more in-depth and technical OSINT knowledge. Students will learn OSINT skills and techniques that law enforcement, intelligence analysts, private investigators, journalists, penetration testers and network defenders use in their investigations.
Open-source intelligence collection and analysis techniques are increasingly useful in a world where more and more information is added to the internet every day. With billions of internet users sharing information on themselves, their organizations, and people and events they have knowledge of, the internet is a resource-rich environment for intelligence collection. SEC587 is designed to teach you how to efficiently utilize this wealth of information for your own investigations.
SEC587 will take your OSINT collection and analysis abilities to the next level, whether you are involved in intelligence analysis, criminal and fraud investigations, or just curious about how to find out more about anything! SEC587 is replete with hands-on exercises, real-world scenarios, and interaction with live internet and dark web data sources.
This course is also blended with all the fundamentals an OSINT analyst will need to learn and understand and apply basic coding in languages such as Python, JSON, and shell utilities as well as interacting with APIs for automating your OSINT processes.
SEC587 students will learn effective OSINT methods and techniques including:
Structured intelligence analysis
Rating the reliability of information and its sources
Researching sensitive and secretive groups
Practical and Advanced Image and video analysis and verification
Dark web and criminal underground investigations.
Operational Security (OPSEC) for OSINT
Fact-checking and analysis of disinformation and misinformation
Knowing cryptocurrency fundamentals and tracking
Using basic coding to facilitate information collection and analysis
Interacting with APIs for data collection and filtering
Conducting internet monitoring
Automation techniques to support OSINT processes
You Will Receive with this Course:
Physical and digital workbooks and a course specific Virtual Machine (VM) tailored for this Advanced Open Source Intelligence Gathering and Analysis course
This Course Will Prepare You to:
Take a dive more in-depth into finding, collecting, and analyzing information found on the internet
Debug, understand, alter, and create your own OSINT-focused Python scripts
Move and pivot around safely on the Dark Web
Perform financial OSINT investigations

Prerequisites
SEC587 is a fast-paced, advanced course that is meant to build upon previous knowledge and experience in OSINT. The SANS SEC487 Open-Source Intelligence Gathering and Analysis course is recommended but not required prior to taking this course.
Basic knowledge and experience with open-source intelligence collection.
Rudimentary understanding of intelligence analysis
Knowledge of how to use a Virtual Machine (VM)
Laptop Requirements
!! IMPORTANT – BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP CONFIGURED USING THESE DIRECTIONS!!
A properly configured system is required for each student participating in this course. Before coming to class, carefully read and follow these instructions exactly.
CRITICAL NOTE: Apple systems using the M1 processor line cannot perform the necessary virtualization functionality and therefore cannot in any way be used for this course.
Host Operating System: Latest version of Windows 10, macOS 10.15.x or later, or Linux that also can install and run VMware virtualization products described below.
It is necessary to fully update your host operating system prior to the class to ensure you have the right drivers and patches installed to utilize the latest USB 3.0 devices.
Those who use a Linux host must also be able to access exFAT partitions using the appropriate kernel or FUSE modules.
You also must have 8 GB of RAM or higher for the VM to function properly in the class.
It is critical that your CPU and operating system support 64-bit so that our 64-bit guest virtual machine will run on your laptop.
In addition to having 64-bit capable hardware, AMD-V, Intel VT-x, or the equivalent must be enabled in BIOS/UEFI.
Download and install either VMware Workstation Pro 15.5.x, VMware Player 15.5.x or Fusion 11.5.x or higher versions before class. If you do not own a licensed copy of VMware Workstation or Fusion, you can download a free 30-day trial copy from VMware. VMware will send you a time-limited serial number if you register for the trial at their website.
Other virtualization software, such as VirtualBox and Hyper-V, are not appropriate because of compatibility and troubleshooting problems you might encounter during class.
VMware Workstation Pro and VMware Player on Windows 10 is not compatible with Windows 10 Credential Guard and Device Guard technologies. Please disable these capabilities for the duration of the class, if they’re enabled on your system, by following instructions in this document.
MANDATORY SEC587 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
CPU: 64-bit 2.0+ GHz processor or higher-based system is mandatory for this course (Important – Please Read: a 64-bit system processor is mandatory)
BOIS/UEFI: VT-x, AMD-V, or the equivalent must be enabled in the BIOS/UEFI
RAM: 8 GB (gigabytes) of RAM or higher is mandatory for this course (Important – Please Read: 8 GB of RAM or higher is mandatory)
Wireless Ethernet 802.11 G/N/AC
USB 3.0 port (courseware provided via USB)
Disk: 30 gigabytes of free disk space
VMware Workstation Pro 15.5.X+, VMware Player 15.5.X+ or Fusion 11.5+
Privileged access to the host operating system with the ability to disable security tools
A Linux virtual machine will be provided in class
Your course media will now be delivered via download. The media files for class can be large, roughly 40-50GB in size. You need to allow plenty of time for the download to complete. Internet connections and speed vary greatly and are dependent on many different factors. Therefore, it is not possible to give an estimate of the length of time it will take to download your materials. Please start your course media downloads as you get the link. You will need your course media immediately on the first day of class. Waiting until the night before the class starts to begin your download has a high probability of failure.
SANS has begun providing printed materials in PDF form and this class uses an electronic workbook in addition to the PDFs. In this new environment, we found that a second monitor and/or a tablet device can be useful by keeping the class materials visible while the instructor is presenting or while you are working on lab exercises.
