Doxxing -- or the publication of personal information to punish or harass an individual – represents a growing problem. Even worse, potentially anyone could become a target – from executives and celebrities to frontline workers.

So how can security teams address this threat?

Tristan Laugher, Product Specialist at Liferaft Inc., is on the show this week.

In this episode, Tristan breaks down how to use OSINT to stop and mitigate doxxing online.

Expect to learn what type of threat actors employ this tactic, how doxxing put executives and other VIPs at risk, the new tactics malicious individuals use to harass targets, how security teams can protect their principal from getting doxxed, the surprising threat vector most security teams haven’t considered, what to do after your principal gets doxxed online, and much more.
