DESCRIPTION:When we see the terms "Natural Language Processing" (NLP) or "M
achine Learning" (ML)\, often our guts are correct\, and it is vendor mark
eting material\, frequently containing FUD. After tinkering with various l
ibraries in Python and R with the use of some OSINT and SOCMINT techniques
\, Joe has found a use for NLP and ML that is 100 percent FUD-free in the
form of a brand new Python-based tool.
In this presentation\, Joe a
ddresses topics that he has frequently spoken about in past years: disinfo
rmation\, deception\, OSINT\, and OPSEC. When working through learning NLP
and ML in Python\, it dawned on him: marry these technologies with Decept
icon for good. Enter the Decepticon bot.
The Decepticon bot is a py
thon-based tool that connects to social media via APIs to read posts/tweet
s to determine patterns of posting intervals and content\, then takes over
to autonomously post for the user. What is the application\, you ask? Peo
ple who are trying to enhance their OPSEC and abandon social media account
s that have been targeted without setting off alarms to their adversaries.
Use case scenarios include public figures\, executives\, and\, most impor
tantly\, domestic violence and trafficking victims.
