Kirby speaks at PFIC Fall Session: Crypto Creepers: Unmasking Telegram’s Bitcoin Bandits with OSINT
Crypto Creepers: Unmasking Telegram’s Bitcoin Bandits with OSINT
This presentation delves into the use of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) techniques to investigate and expose illicit activities involving Bitcoin within the Telegram messaging platform. As cryptocurrency adoption grows, so does its exploitation by malicious actors. This abstract outlines how OSINT methodologies can be applied to track, identify, and attribute criminal activity, focusing on case studies of individuals or groups leveraging Telegram for scams, fraud, and other Bitcoin-related offenses. Attendees will gain insights into the specific OSINT tools and strategies employed to uncover digital footprints, connect disparate data points, and ultimately unmask the identities and operations of these "Bitcoin bandits."

AI Foundations: Understanding Methodology, Changing Mindset, and Crafting Powerful Prompts
Artificial Intelligence is reshaping open source intelligence (OSINT), but success in using AI tools requires more than technology—it demands a shift in methodology and mindset. In this 1-hour webinar, Rae Baker will guide you through key principles for effective AI integration in investigations. You’ll learn how to craft powerful prompts, optimize AI workflows, and approach AI-driven tools with a strategic mindset.
Rae draws from her extensive experience as a senior OSINT analyst, licensed private investigator, and maritime OSINT subject matter expert. She is also the co-creator of KASE Scenarios, an immersive OSINT training platform, and a sought-after speaker at major conferences such as DEFCON, Shmoocon, and the SANS OSINT Summit. Rae is the author of “Deep Dive: Exploring the Real-World Value of Open Source Intelligence.”
A Journey in Practical OSINT for a Cybersecurity Analyst
Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) techniques are essential for investigating Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) following cyberattacks like malware, phishing, and other threats. In this presentation, Nadia Vigneault will provide practical tips and showcase key OSINT tools used to uncover and analyze malicious infrastructures.
Participants will learn how to search for crucial data points—such as IP addresses, DNS records, emails, ports, and file hashes—and use both online tools and CSI-Linux to strengthen their investigations. Join us for a hands-on exploration of the world of practical OSINT for cybersecurity!
Leveraging AI Agents in OSINT Investigations
