Revealing the invisible map of the internet and learning to safeguard your digital trail
In an era where data is the new oil, your digital trail is the most sought-after asset for both marketers and malicious actors. The Basics of Digital Footprints is a high-impact, 1-day workshop designed to peel back the layers of the internet to reveal how information is generated, tracked, and exploited.
This workshop moves beyond theoretical security to provide a visceral understanding of "Active vs. Passive" footprints. Participants will explore the mechanics of how attackers trace personal and organizational data using Open Source Intelligence (OSINT). By shifting the perspective from a standard user to that of a digital investigator, attendees will learn to identify their own vulnerabilities, improve digital hygiene, and implement "Zero Trust" concepts to safeguard sensitive information.
This is an essential session for those who need to understand the "Invisible Map" of the internet.
The architecture of this workshop is built upon four critical pillars of digital intelligence:
Mastering the ethical and systematic gathering of publicly available information. We teach how to connect fragmented data points to create a comprehensive profile of a target or an organization.
Understanding that every file and server interaction leaves a "digital fingerprint." We explore how logs, DNS lookups, and hidden metadata can be used to reconstruct activity history.
Moving away from traditional perimeter security to a model where "never trust, always verify" is the standard for every user and device within an enterprise network.
Visualizing how the "Internet of Things" expands the attack surface. We demonstrate how seemingly benign hardware generates data footprints that can be intercepted or traced.
