The Black Tiger: Unleashing the Beast

The Black Tiger is not your ordinary OSINT tool. It’s a fierce and intelligent linux tool that combines various
data sources, analytical tools, and algorithms to provide you with comprehensive information about your targets. Whether you’re a cybersecurity professional, a journalist, or simply someone curious about online investigations, this tool is designed to cater to your needs.

The Black Tiger tool is focused on OSINT almost all areas (People, Nicknames, Social Networks, Emails, Phone Numbers, Web Pages, Public IPs and Images). My idea was to collect and automate all the most
Advanced OSINT techniques possible in a single Tool and thus work in the most comfortable and fast way possible,
since we only have to give a couple of clicks and it will only start collecting and displaying in an orderly and
classified manner all the information. All Sections are separated into parts in case you only want to extract a specific type of information, but it also has the penultimate option that combines all the Options so that it can extract everything it is capable of from the data that we have entered.

The Name: Unveiling “The Black Tiger”

In the world of cybersecurity and OSINT, a tool’s name can carry significant meaning. “The Black Tiger” is no exception. The name draws inspiration from a real-life hero of espionage, Ravindra Kaushik, also known as “The Black Tiger.”

Ravindra Kaushik, an Indian Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) agent, dedicated his life to serving his country as a spy from 1975 to 1983. His remarkable contributions and unwavering dedication to the cause have earned him a place in the annals of Indian history as one of the greatest spies the nation has ever known.

As a tribute to the courage, dedication, and relentless pursuit of knowledge exemplified by Ravindra Kaushik, “The Black Tiger” OSINT tool stands as a symbol of tenacity in the world of digital investigation. It embodies the spirit of its namesake, helping users unveil hidden truths and navigate the intricate web of online information.

Much like the real Black Tiger left an indelible mark on India’s intelligence landscape, my tool aspires to leave a lasting impact on the field of OSINT. With its powerful features and capabilities, it’s a fitting homage to the legacy of a true espionage legend.

When using The Black Tiger, it’s crucial to pay attention to specific details and considerations to ensure a smooth experience. Here are some key points to keep in mind:

User Permissions Matter:

During the installation and configuration of requirements, when prompted to add a user, make sure to select a user who does not have root permissions.

Close Firefox:

The Black Tiger is designed to open multiple tabs in your web browser. To ensure a seamless experience, it’s recommended to have Firefox closed before running the tool. This precaution will help prevent potential errors and ensure that the tool can function as intended.

Optimal Terminal Usage:

For a visually pleasing experience, it’s advisable to use The Black Tiger with the terminal in full-screen mode. This configuration not only looks better but also provides a more comfortable environment for conducting your investigations.
