Abstract

Information gathering in cybersecurity is a foundational practice that helps organizations assess and mitigate risks, detect and respond to threats, and establish a robust security posture. Securing an organization's digital assets and guaranteeing the confidentiality, integrity, and accessibility of its data and systems is a crucial measure. Ethical hackers and security professionals use information gathering as the first step in penetration testing. By collecting information about a targeted system or network, individuals can replicate real-world attack scenarios and detect vulnerabilities proactively, preventing exploitation by malicious actors. Keywords— Cyber Security, Hacking, Information Gathering, Reconnaissance.
