Apologies if some of the resources are no longer available or contain errors, as the owner does not regularly check the status of these resources, If there is new information, the owner will add it to this repo along with the category. If you want to read about techniques and intelligence some have already been added to the Wiki page Jieyaboo Wiki The owner will add them back. If there are any errors let us know thank you.

Tips & Trick Safe Guide Using Resources

Please take a notes. Due to the large number of supply chain attacks, refer to OWASP TOP 10 2025. My advice is to use a sandbox machine that does not contain your personal data and office. With the rise of malware stealers, crypto miners, and other threats, to reduce this risk, you can use fake accounts on social media, email, phone numbers, and your sandbox machine, as well as turn on your AV (Anti Virus) and firewall.

Tips:

  • Use virtual machine, fake host or docker machine, or cloud machine try on your vps
  • Use private network e.g vpn, tor, p2p
  • Use second account (not you real account)
  • Read ToS the resouces
  • Enable your firewall, AV and IDS on your host or machine
  • Strict your browser with the privacy extension disable js, ads and more
  • Dont upload your private files make sure you have clean personal file in folder
  • Scan the files will you download
  • Encrypt your network traffic, message and disk
  • Beware about attachments such as docx, xlsm or macro documents (Check macros don't immediately press enable, check properties file to do strict mode)
  • Beware about malicious script like programm lang always check will you run it e.g review, code and community usage (like plugin, library, github source code, extension browser, extension code editor or other things) beware with code with obfuscate (dont trust it)
  • Do a active on each platform example like post, follow, following to avoid bot detection or blocked by user (target)
  • If tools are paid try on with demo trial version with sock (fake) account, many on this resouces there is a paid so i suggest to try demo first. If there is a payment such as using crypto, try to track the transaction using Arkham or similar. If it is non-crypto, make sure there is a clear contact us, support, and email. Do not rush to pay. If you want to pay and are forced to, find the cheapest version and pay using a virtual account or third-party service to make the transaction

Legal Considerations and International Law for OSINT

Country / Region Legal Framework Key Legal Considerations OSINT / PII Implications
Indonesia 🇮🇩 Personal Data Protection Law (Law No. 27 of 2022) — UU PDPElectronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) — Law Overview Requires a lawful basis for processing personal data (consent, contract, legal obligation, legitimate interest, etc.). Data subjects have rights. UU ITE prohibits unlawful access and misuse of electronic data. OSINT using publicly available data is generally permissible, but processing identifiable personal data must comply with PDP Law principles such as purpose limitation and data minimization.
European Union 🇪🇺 General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) — Official EU Text Processing requires a lawful basis (consent, legitimate interest, etc.). Transparency, accountability, and data subject rights apply. High-risk processing may require a DPIA. Public availability does not remove GDPR obligations. OSINT involving EU residents’ personal data must meet GDPR compliance standards.
Spain 🇪🇸 LOPDGDD (Spain’s Organic Law on Data Protection) + GDPR — Official Text (BOE) Supplements GDPR with national rules. Legitimate interest may apply for research under strict necessity and proportionality tests. OSINT research must document lawful basis and balance privacy impact against legitimate interest.
Mexico 🇲🇽 Federal Law on Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties — Official Government Portal Requires privacy notice, lawful basis, and safeguards when processing personal data. Individuals have rights to access, rectify, cancel, or oppose data use. Collecting public data is allowed, but processing personal data still falls under legal protections.
United States 🇺🇸 Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) — Cornell Law School ReferenceState Privacy Laws (e.g., CCPA/CPRA) — California DOJ Prohibits unauthorized access to computers and bypassing authentication. Privacy laws vary by state. OSINT is legal when using publicly accessible sources. Accessing restricted systems or circumventing security controls is illegal.
China 🇨🇳 Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL) — Official Text (NPC)Cybersecurity Law (CSL) — OverviewData Security Law (DSL) — Overview PIPL requires lawful basis and strict consent rules for personal data processing. Strong state controls on data handling, cross-border transfer restrictions, and broad definitions of sensitive personal information. Even publicly available personal data can be regulated under PIPL. Large-scale OSINT data aggregation, profiling, or export outside China may trigger compliance reviews or security assessments.
International (Human Rights) International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), Article 17 — UN Text Recognizes the right to privacy and protection from arbitrary interference. Applies to digital environments. OSINT activities should respect fundamental privacy rights even when data is publicly accessible.
OSINT Ethical Principles (Non-Legal) Community-driven OSINT codes of conduct and research ethics Use only lawfully and publicly available sources. Avoid doxxing, stalking, harassment, or data resale. Minimize sensitive data collection. Ethical practice often goes beyond legal requirements and reduces risk of harm, misuse, or reputational damage.

Github Dork

Dorking

Dorking is a wonderful thing, you can use this technique to search for anything such as index of a website, looking for live online camera server and other specifics, as for dorking commands that you can do for example

  1. intitle: Search for specific titles
  2. inurl: Search for specific urls or paths
  3. intext: Search for specific words or contects
  4. filetype: Search for files
  5. site: Search from a specified target
  6. Wildcard or symbol * (star) Find all web pages, for example: seccodeid*
  7. Define:term Search for all things with specified terms, example define:seccodeid
  8. cache page Take a snapshot of an indexed page. Google uses this to find the right page for the query you're looking for. Website or target specifically
  9. allintext: Searches for specific text contained on a web page
  10. allinurl: Find various keywords in a URL
  11. allintitle: Restricts results to those containing all terms specified in a title
  12. link: List of web pages that have links to the specified URL
  13. (|) Pipe. This is a logical operator, | "tips" will show all the sites which contain either, or both words
  14. (+) Used to concatenate words, useful to detect pages that use more than one specific key
  15. (-) Minus operator avoids showing results that contain certain words, e.g. security -trails will show pages that use "security" in their text, but not those that have the word "trails"
