About this listen
In this episode, Michael DeBolt joins Robert Vamosi and AJ Nash to dive into the world of Cyber HUMINT — the application of traditional human intelligence (HUMINT) tradecraft in cyberspace. They discuss how investigators use digital personas (sometimes called “sock puppets”) to infiltrate online threat actor communities, collect intelligence, and even engage adversaries safely. Michael explains how credibility, language, slang, and cultural nuance are essential to blending in, while AJ highlights the risks of untrained amateurs attempting such operations. They explore the art, ethics, and operational security challenges of conducting human intelligence in the digital realm.
