Infoga – Email Information Gathering
From the post:
Infoga is a tool for gathering e-mail accounts information (ip,hostname,country,…) from different public sources (search engines, pgp key servers). Is a really simple tool, but very effective for the early stages of a penetration test or just to know the visibility of your company in the Internet.
Its not COMINT:
COMINT or communications intelligence is intelligence gained through the interception of foreign communications, excluding open radio and television broadcasts. It is a subset of signals intelligence, or SIGINT, with the latter being understood as comprising COMINT and ELINT, electronic intelligence derived from non-communication electronic signals such as radar. (COMINT (Communications Intelligence))
as practiced by the NSA, but that doesn’t keep it from being useful.
Not gathering useless data means a smaller haystack and a greater chance of finding needles.
Other focused information mining tools you would recommend?
