So you’re on a social engineering test… and you need to target some users for spear phishing. Previously we’ve used theHarvester and metasploit for this, but I’ve now fully switched over to esearchy by Matias P. Brutti.

Install on BT5:

[plain]
sudo gem sources –add http://gems.github.com
sudo gem install gemcutter
sudo gem install esearchy
[/plain]

Let’s Pick on Valve (for no particular reason):

[plain]
esearchy -q “@valvesoftware.com” –company “Valve Software” –enable-spoke –enable-linkedin -m 500
[/plain]

Output for Social Profiling”
