Facial Recognition Is Tracking Subjects on Social Platforms A new open-source tool is tracking faces across social media. The invasive tool is called Social Mapper. Security researchers can perform social engineering attacks based on a name
and picture. Such processes were already
achievable manually. The automation will allow the task to be performed faster. The system locates profiles on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn and
other networks. The end result is a spreadsheet of confirmed accounts for
each name. Social Mapper is perfect for targeted phishing campaigns or general intelligence gathering.
