The story goes that a pen tester was performing intelligence gathering on the at-the-time director of the FBI, James Comey. By listening to footage from Comey, the pen tester noted that Comey mentioned having several social media accounts, including a Twitter account. However, at the time, no account of his was known.
Through thorough investigation, the pen tester eventually discovered Comey's secret Twitter account, screen name Reinhold Niebuhr. The goal of this recipe is to help the pen tester to automate and expedite the sifting through large amounts of audio/video footage about a target in the search of keywords. Specifically, we use machine learning to convert speech into text, collect this text, and then search for keywords of interest.
