China OSINT MASTER program

This  module lays the foundation for doing OSINT On China and China-focused  OSINT by explaining how the Chinese internet differs from the West and  why standard tools often fail. You'll learn how censorship, real-name  policies, and access restrictions shape the landscape, what mistakes to  avoid, and how to adapt your mindset and methods for effective  investigations. It’s a practical introduction to thinking, searching,  and operating smarter in China’s controlled online environment.

This  module teaches how to effectively work with Chinese-language content in  OSINT investigations, searching China even without knowing the  language. You’ll learn how to search smarter, spot mis-translations,  understand slang and hidden meanings, and investigate names and people  accurately. It covers key communication styles, tools to bypass language  and access barriers, and how to avoid common mistakes that derail  Western analysts. 

This  module gives you a hands-on introduction to key China OSINT  disciplines—OSINT, GEOINT, IMINT, SOCMINT, and corporate intelligence.  You’ll learn how to search hidden Chinese platforms, use tailored tools  and plugins. Through real case studies, OSINT On China exercises, and  step-by-step guidance, you'll build the skills to extract actionable  intelligence from China’s online ecosystem—independently and long-term. 

This  module focuses on advanced access techniques for Chinese platforms.  You'll learn how to bypass the +86 number requirement, register and obtain accounts, and bypass  blocks without using VPNs or flagged tools (that typically fail from western perspective). It covers how to think and  operate like a local, searching China, spot weak points in China’s  internet controls, and apply manual, field-tested methods. Real-world  examples and OPSEC strategies show how to stay low-profile while  expanding access for long-term investigations.

This  module dives into China-specific cyber threat intelligence. You’ll  learn how to map threat actors, monitor dark and deep web spaces,   track leaks and hacking activity. 

It covers safe engagement using  avatars, vHUMINT techniques, and how to build credible profiles for  deeper access. Searching China and doing OSINT On China like a pro.

In  every section, you get real-life examples, detailed case studies, and  hands-on exercises. You'll see how the techniques taught throughout the  course are applied in actual investigations—tracking actors, accessing  hidden platforms, and extracting intelligence. Each case study breaks  down the tools, methods, and decisions used. Practical exercises let you  apply what you’ve learned in simulated scenarios, building the  confidence and skill to operate independently in real-world OSINT on  China investigations in this Master OSINT On China Course.
