1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,050 Now let's talk about LinkedIn Osint. 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:11,300 LinkedIn has over 900 million active users monthly, and people can post, share photos, videos, and 3 00:00:11,300 --> 00:00:12,230 add links. 4 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:18,260 Now, what's special about LinkedIn is that people try to keep their profiles updated. 5 00:00:18,260 --> 00:00:24,560 It's not like Facebook because if a company wants to hire a certain person, then they will always have 6 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:31,400 a look at their current position, their past experiences, etc. and this means that you'll be able 7 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:36,650 to find where the person works, where they live, and in which university they have studied. 8 00:00:37,190 --> 00:00:43,820 So the first thing that I would like to show you is search filters that will help you to find the person 9 00:00:43,820 --> 00:00:46,880 quicker and will help you to narrow down your search. 10 00:00:47,330 --> 00:00:53,090 Similar to Facebook, you just have to enter the person's name and then specify all the information 11 00:00:53,090 --> 00:00:56,420 that you have about the person to narrow down your search. 12 00:00:56,690 --> 00:01:02,060 For example, if you have searched for John Smith, then you'll get hundreds or maybe thousands of search 13 00:01:02,060 --> 00:01:02,660 results. 14 00:01:02,660 --> 00:01:10,790 But once you specify the country, city, the university, etc., you'll be able to refine your search 15 00:01:10,790 --> 00:01:13,580 and only find the person that you are looking for. 16 00:01:13,940 --> 00:01:16,340 So let me show you an example here. 17 00:01:16,340 --> 00:01:22,490 I'm going to search for Rishi Kabra and since we have searched for Rishi Kabra multiple times, that's 18 00:01:22,490 --> 00:01:24,740 why it's getting displayed at the top. 19 00:01:24,740 --> 00:01:28,130 But what I would like to show you is this tab. 20 00:01:28,130 --> 00:01:33,620 For example, when you go to people, then you'll only see people that have this name and we can see 21 00:01:33,620 --> 00:01:35,990 that we have 30 search results. 22 00:01:36,410 --> 00:01:43,310 Now, since we know that Rishi Kabra lives in Kolkata, I'm going to specify the location to be India 23 00:01:43,340 --> 00:01:46,700 first and then I'm going to say show results. 24 00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:48,770 And now I have 28 search results. 25 00:01:48,770 --> 00:01:51,590 So I've only executed two results. 26 00:01:51,620 --> 00:01:57,380 I can go to the current company and say contact out which is already displayed in here. 27 00:01:58,350 --> 00:02:01,440 and we can see that we only have one search result. 28 00:02:02,430 --> 00:02:07,860 Now, if you would like to specify more information, then you can go to all filters and then scroll 29 00:02:07,860 --> 00:02:14,880 down and specify for example the school, university, industry, language, etc. these are all information 30 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,220 that could be used to narrow down your search. 31 00:02:17,250 --> 00:02:19,680 You can also go to posts. 32 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:25,860 For example, if you only want to see posts of people with this name or related to this search term, 33 00:02:25,860 --> 00:02:31,920 and we can see that this person has mentioned the name Rishi, but it's not Rishi Kapoor, it's Rishi. 34 00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:32,730 Something else. 35 00:02:32,730 --> 00:02:36,030 We can scroll down and find more information. 36 00:02:36,030 --> 00:02:42,150 So if I search for Rishi, we can see that there's another person called Rishi Chhabra that has posted 37 00:02:42,150 --> 00:02:43,320 here as well. 38 00:02:43,710 --> 00:02:51,030 We can also specify when the posts were posted and the content and select a certain member. 39 00:02:51,030 --> 00:02:58,300 For example, we can search for Rishi Chhabra and click on this profile and see if there is any public 40 00:02:58,300 --> 00:02:59,560 comments or posts. 41 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:06,670 And as you can see here we have a comment, etc. after finding the target profile, the next thing you 42 00:03:06,670 --> 00:03:12,370 want to do is to analyze their profile and see what information are important or relevant to you. 43 00:03:13,030 --> 00:03:16,420 So in this example here I have a screenshot of my profile. 44 00:03:16,420 --> 00:03:18,580 You can see that I teach people Osint. 45 00:03:18,610 --> 00:03:25,900 You can see my website and how many followers I have and the country that I am in. 46 00:03:25,930 --> 00:03:32,200 We can also click on contact info to find any additional information, for example an email address 47 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,420 or date of birth, etc.. 48 00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:39,880 Now let me go to Rishi Kabra profile because we already have gathered this before. 49 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:46,630 As you can see here, it's already in our notes and we can see that he is a Product Manager at Contact 50 00:03:46,660 --> 00:03:47,080 Out. 51 00:03:47,110 --> 00:03:54,430 We can see where he studied and where he's working, and we can hover over this website and see in the 52 00:03:54,460 --> 00:03:57,580 bottom left that this is contact out website. 53 00:03:57,580 --> 00:04:03,550 We can see the number of followers and the mutual connection between me and him, and if I clicked on 54 00:04:03,550 --> 00:04:07,750 contact info then I'll be able to find some additional information. 55 00:04:07,750 --> 00:04:14,890 He only added his birthday without the year, but we have already identified in which year he was born 56 00:04:14,890 --> 00:04:17,590 when we performed Facebook Osint. 57 00:04:18,370 --> 00:04:23,380 You can also read the biography about him to gather more information. 58 00:04:23,380 --> 00:04:26,140 We can see his activities and comments. 59 00:04:26,140 --> 00:04:30,460 So if I clicked on comment, I can see all the comments that he has made. 60 00:04:30,460 --> 00:04:38,680 As you can see here, I can go to reactions and find to what he has reacted and I always like to go 61 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:44,020 through the posts, comments and reaction because this will tell me if the person is actually using 62 00:04:44,020 --> 00:04:45,040 their accounts. 63 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:52,450 So if I see that he supported this article or this post two days ago, then this will tell me that he's 64 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:57,760 active on his LinkedIn account and he's liking supporting posts, etc.. 65 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:05,950 One of the coolest things that I really find about LinkedIn is that LinkedIn allows us to download the 66 00:05:05,950 --> 00:05:08,740 person's profile very, very easily. 67 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,800 So you don't have to open an Excel spreadsheet, copy data, paste data, clean the data that you have 68 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:22,120 copied, etc. you can basically click on more and then save to PDF to download the person's resume or 69 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,080 profile. 70 00:05:23,950 --> 00:05:29,350 So let's come back to Rishi Kabra account again and I'm going to download his profile. 71 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:33,820 I'm going to click on more and then save to PDF. 72 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:41,590 So even if he changed his information, I still have an offline copy of the information that were posted 73 00:05:41,590 --> 00:05:44,110 or made public on his LinkedIn account. 74 00:05:44,140 --> 00:05:46,930 So let's go to our notes and upload this. 75 00:05:46,930 --> 00:05:54,510 I'm going to say add a page inside and then I'm going to say LinkedIn, and then I will go to this page 76 00:05:54,510 --> 00:06:00,690 and upload my file by adding a slash and then PDF. 77 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:07,320 And then I'm going to click on this and choose the file that I have downloaded, which is in my downloads. 78 00:06:08,250 --> 00:06:12,780 And now I have an offline copy of his LinkedIn profile. 79 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,990 Now we don't see the picture, but this is not a problem. 80 00:06:15,990 --> 00:06:23,970 We can copy it so we can open the picture, right click save the image as and then save it on your desktop. 81 00:06:23,970 --> 00:06:30,270 And then we can upload it to our notes by adding slash and then image. 82 00:06:30,270 --> 00:06:35,910 And here I will click on upload file and then go to my desktop. 83 00:06:35,910 --> 00:06:37,770 And here is his image. 84 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,360 I'm going to say open. 85 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,590 And I can make it smaller like this. 86 00:06:43,590 --> 00:06:47,430 And then move it to the right side of the page.
