Gavino highlighted that people remain the weakest link in cybersecurity, introducing delegates to concepts such as malware, social engineering, and supply chain attacks. Stressing the importance of cybersecurity awareness, he reminded participants that “The only way you can avoid being hacked is through knowledge,” while encouraging them to adopt safe online practices, including regularly updating passwords and protecting personal information.

Encouraging students to discover their place in the field, Gavino likened cybersecurity roles to game characters, emphasizing that success in the profession is driven not only by technical skills but also by curiosity, discipline, and the desire to make a positive impact.

OSINT Bastion Founder Naz Dane Mauri Highlights the Fundamentals of Open Source Intelligence at ITE Convention 2026

Naz Dane Mauri, Founder and CEO of OSINT Bastion, introduced delegates to the fundamentals of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), emphasizing that mastering the basics is essential before advancing to more complex investigative techniques.

Through live demonstrations, Mauri showed how publicly available information from search engines, social media platforms, government websites, and online articles can be gathered and analyzed using techniques such as advanced search queries, Google dorking, reverse image searches, and phone number investigations. He stressed that professional OSINT requires more than basic searches, emphasizing the importance of verifying and cross-checking information to ensure its accuracy and reliability.

Mauri also shared that OSINT plays an important role in supporting investigations across individuals, businesses, government agencies, and law enforcement. Beyond the technical skills, he encouraged delegates to remain humble, continue learning, and use their knowledge responsibly to help others rather than seek recognition.

The session concluded with a reminder that effective Open Source Intelligence begins with strong fundamentals, critical thinking, and a commitment to using information ethically and responsibly.
