The Skip Tracing Framework is an interesting concept that can be very well used in information gathering phase of an attack. Skip tracing per se refers to the collection of as much information possible while trying to gain information about a person. This type of reconnaissance, usually starts with only a few tiny details. You could use the information gained to execute a well directed social engineering attack against a person, say the Windows Administrator of an organisation you would like to break into. The Skip Tracing Framework was born out of a need to streamline the information reconnaissance process.
The Skip Tracing Framework is a directory of information gathering online tools, websites and programs aimed towards situations where one must gather as much information as possible about some individual or company. The main purpose of the Skip Tracing Framework is to offer a checklist anyone can follow to perform a thorough investigation based only on small pieces of input. All of this information is collected by passive information gathering, so that the user does not have any idea!
This framework is inspired by the great Penetration Testing Framework , including additional sources of information in addition to present the available options in a more convenient manner. Ratings are used to display the general usefulness of the obtained results and how well the the Skip Tracing Framework usually behaves.
The Skip Tracing Framework includes additional sources of information in addition to present the available options in a more convenient manner. It aims to offer an updated directory of public sources of information which can be used for information gathering processes about a person or company. Ofcourse you could pay large sums of money to gain information about the target. But why pay when could do it for free? The current trend is such that almost anyone can be “skiptraced.”
