social-analyzer: A JavaScript repository from Cameron1323

Social Analyzer - API, CLI & Web App for analyzing & finding a person's profile across social media \ websites. It includes different string analysis and detection modules, you can choose which combination of modules to use during the investigation process.

The detection modules utilize a rating mechanism based on different detection techniques, which produces a rate value that starts from 0 to 100 (No-Maybe-Yes). This module intended to have less false positive and it's documented in this Wiki link

The analysis and public extracted information from this OSINT tool could help in investigating profiles related to suspicious or malicious activities such as cyberbullying, cybergrooming, cyberstalking, and spreading misinformation.

This project is "currently used by some law enforcement agencies in countries where resources are limited".

Update

You can import SocialAnalyzer object from the python package (Users request)
Cancel task has been implemented (Users request)
Save the GUI analysis \ output as JSON file has been implemented (Users request)

Running Issues

Remember that existing profiles show status:good or rate:%100
Some websites return blocked or invalid <- this is the intended behavior
Use Proxy, VPN, TOR or anything similar for periodic suspicious-profiles checking
Do not mix FindUserProfilesFast, with FindUserProfilesSlow and ShowUserProfilesSlow
Change the user-agent to most updated one or increase the random time between requests
Use the slow mode (Not available in the CLIs) to avoid running into blocking\results issue

Goals

Adding the generic websites detections (These need some reviewing, but I will try to add them in 2021)

Resources

DuckDuckGo API, Google API, NodeJS, bootstrap, selectize, jQuery, Wikipedia, font-awesome, selenium-webdriver & tesseract.js
Let me know if I missed a reference or resource!
