Social Media Mining analyzes public information about your organization and employees on social media to identify potential security risks and help you guard against targeted attacks.
What is Social Media Mining?
With Social Media Mining, we help your organization understand how public information on social media can be used by cybercriminals to carry out targeted attacks. Hackers often gather data about your employees, company structure and other sensitive information through platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. This information is then used for phishing attacks, social engineering or identity theft.
Our Social Media Mining service analyzes your organization's online presence and identifies what data may be vulnerable. We help you understand the risks posed by this information and provide practical recommendations to strengthen your digital security. That way, your organization can be better prepared for attacks that start via social networks.
Our approach to Social Media Mining
Social Media Mining analyzes public social media to discover what information can be misused for phishing or social engineering. We help your organization by identifying these risks and making employees aware of the importance of online security.
Preparation and objectives
- We start with a conversation to determine the specific needs and goals of the Social Media Mining test. This helps us focus on the right channels and data that are important to your organization.
- We collect information about your organization, such as key employees, branding, and company pages on social networks, to understand where potential risks lie.
Analyzing Social Media Accounts
- We examine various social media platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for publicly available information that could be misused by cybercriminals.
- We look for employee personal information, company structures, location information, posts about internal processes or confidential data that has been shared online without employees realizing it.
Identifying risks
- We map what data on social media is vulnerable to misuse, for example: passwords, location information, business activities, or entry points for social engineering attacks.
- We analyze how this information can be used by attackers for targeted phishing, spear phishing, or other forms of cyber attacks.
Reporting and findings
- After the analysis, we prepare a detailed report documenting the risks and vulnerabilities we found.
- The report includes specific examples of public information that could potentially be misused and explains how this data could be used by attackers to launch targeted attacks.
Recommendations and improvement actions
- We provide concrete recommendations on how to improve your employees' online presence and make them aware of the dangers of sharing too much information on social networks.
- We advise on privacy settings and how employees can secure their social media profiles to protect sensitive information.
Follow-up and awareness
- After the test, we organize a session for employees to discuss the findings and train them in safe online behavior.
- We help your organization set up a policy and culture around online privacy and security so that employees always stay vigilant about what they share.
With this approach, we help your organization understand the risks of Social Media Mining and protect both your corporate information and your employees from the dangers of online data misuse.
