New release coming soon!\n\n### Download Options:  \n[![Download inforensics](https://a.fsdn.com/con/app/sf-download-button)](https://sourceforge.net/projects/inforensics/files/beta1/)  \n \nSee [Wiki](https://github.com/Inforensics/osint-vm/wiki) for FAQs and Help.  \n\n\nInforensics osint-vm is a cutting-edge Linux distribution designed specifically for Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) investigators. Built on the solid foundations of Debian, Kali, and antiX packages, Inforensics brings together a comprehensive suite of tools and resources to empower digital investigators in their quest for information. We make sure Inforensics osint-vm does not use out-of-date tools that have not been updated in 3+ years. Only the most current and useful tools we use ourselves are included.\n\n## Background\n\nInforensics osint-vm is a continuation of specialized Linux distributions that began with the creation of [L.A.S. Linux](https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=las) (Local Area Security Linux), a precursor to Kali Linux in the early 2000s.\n\nL.A.S. Linux gained recognition for its innovation and utility that it was featured as Hack #100 in Kyle Rankin's \"Knoppix Hacks\" book.\n\n## The Evolution from L.A.S. to Inforensics osint-vm\n\nDrawing from the success and lessons learned from L.A.S. Linux, and many other specialized Linux distros we've made Inforensics osint-vm to meet the evolving needs of modern OSINT investigators. Like its predecessors, Inforensics is built with a focus on:\n\n1. **Specialized Toolset**: Carefully curated selection of high-quality OSINT tools, avoiding redundancy and ensuring each inclusion serves a unique purpose.\n2. **Regular Updates**: Commitment to frequent updates, ensuring investigators always have access to the latest tools and security patches.\n3. **Community-Driven Development**: Embracing feedback and contributions from the OSINT community to continually improve and expand the distribution's capabilities.\n\n## Key Features of Inforensics osint-vm\n\n- **Comprehensive OSINT Toolkit**: Includes a wide array of tools for social media investigation, network analysis, geolocation, and more.\n- **User-Friendly Interface**: Intuitive design that caters to both novice and experienced OSINT practitioners.\n- **Customizability**: Flexible environment that allows investigators to tailor their workspace to their specific needs.\n\n\u003e [!WARNING]  \n\u003e Be sure to install your own chosen VPN service and practice good OPSEC. Tor and Tor Browser are already installed, but may need further configuration.\n\n## Screenshot\n![Inforensics OSINT-VM Desktop](https://github.com/Inforensics/osint-vm/blob/main/screenshots/apps-shell.png)\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finforensics%2Fosint-vm","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Finforensics%2Fosint-vm","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finforensics%2Fosint-vm/lists"}
