Blackbird – OSINT Tool to Find Accounts Using Username

Blackbird is a user name enumeration tool developed by Cyber Hunter Lab. This is one of the OSINT tools to find usernames across social media websites.

What is OSINT?

Open-source intelligence (OSINT) methods involve collecting, analyzing, and disseminating publicly available information to address specific intelligence requirements.

This information is gathered from diverse sources and distributed to the appropriate audience at the appropriate time.

Using these tools enables the comprehensive analysis and collection of information about a particular topic. However, the process can be laborious and time-consuming.

This new user enumeration tool was developed by Cyber Hunter Lab and allowed to use only for Educational purposes.

The tool will check for over 581 websites within a second for a given username and display a graphical result.
