Session
Being a similar age to the WWW, I've grown up using it and freely providing it my personal data without knowing any better. In this session we’ll jump into the field of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) and explain how it can be leveraged to understand your digital footprint on the internet. As part of the session we’ll discuss the various sites, tools and learning resources that can be used when investigating the spider web of information that is publicly available about people and explore what sort of data I found in my own personal investigation. Ultimately, I hope this talk will provide a potent example of the old adage ‘the internet never forgets’.
