Information Gathering (To be completed within MARS)
Use your Recon folder in the web browser to find the 4 sites listed above. Use common search engines (different ones from the ones used from the OSINT framework) to search for information on the websites.
- What type of public information can you gather that may help you perform penetration testing if you were a malicious user?
- URL
- Account Remember Me
- Social media is best way to gather information – chirpyhub followers seem to be other Cyberapolis businesses so maybe they are interconnected and if one has a backdoor, that could a malicious actor to the bank’s network, also the followers could also be employees, so taking their names and trying to brute force accounts, it also shows PII (email addresses and phone numbers, you can launch other attacks with this information).
- It shows the address, phone number, and the service numbers you can tell are automated because they are 24/7. If you can gather customer’s information a malicious user may use it to gather information from the automated system
- With emails you can send phishing emails

- no input validation on services and contact us page when entering private information
