OSINT Research Environment
A self-contained, network-isolated research environment for open-source intelligence work. Built on a dedicated Proxmox LXC container with a non-root research user, curated toolset, and deliberate separation from production services.
Why Build This OSINT work involves visiting unknown sites, running aggressive network scanners, and handling data from potentially hostile sources. Running this on a shared system risks contaminating production services if something goes wrong.
A dedicated isolated container solves this cleanly — if something goes sideways during an investigation, it stays contained. The container is intentionally stopped when not in use, reducing the attack surface further.
