Happy OSINT hacking fun with the Panama Paper’s law firm, Mossack Fonseca post breach

Too Long; Didn't Read

My involvement with the Panama Papers came about from curiosity. Originally, I submitted a talk to a nuclear ICS security conference where I intended to show how OSINT techniques could expose a nuclear facility. Presentations should be fun and exciting, especially at a meeting of engineers. A day or two after it was accepted, Daesh started threatening European nuclear facilities. Instead of presenting a how-to which ISIS tw*ts could use, I switched the target to the law firm behind the Panama Papers fiasco, Mossack Fonseca. After the first news hit about the Panama Papers leaks, I decided to sniff around so to speak and had the research data ready. Initially, I intended on keeping my findings more private. However, in 2016, I wrote and leaked a detailed 40-page report to one of the Panama Papers journalists. Containing proof, with step-by-step instructions how to verify my results, create accounts and database access. Hope it helped.
