Class Description

During the course of 4 hours, students will reinforce reverse image searching and EXIF analysis then The Image Intelligence (IMINT), Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and Video Analysis course begins with a primer about Image Intelligence (IMINT) and immediately dives into metadata types – EXIF, XMP, and IPTC. Students are exposed to command-line and web-based tools for analysis and considerations for using each. In instances where no metadata exists, students are provided with techniques to attempt reverse image searching in addition to introductory photo forensics. Next, students will learn to enhance images, extracting/downloading video, and use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) tools.

In brief, this course covers the following:

• Reiterate Reverse Image Search and EXIF Analysis Sites
  • Image
  • Video
• Search Engines
  • Image
  • Video
• Image Enhancement and Introductory Forensics
• Video Extraction
• Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
