ZeroTrace OSINT

Professional-grade OSINT toolkit combining intelligence gathering, security analysis, and operational security in a unified platform.

Overview

ZeroTrace OSINT is accessed exclusively through the ZeroTrace Dashboard under the dedicated ZeroTrace OSINT tab after purchase. It provides advanced reconnaissance capabilities with strict licensing controls for operational security and compliance.

System Requirements

Licensing Model

Lifetime License

Session-Based Access

While the license is lifetime, access is managed through 3-hour sessions:

• Each session grants 3 continuous hours of tool usage
• Sessions begin when you launch the tool
• Upon session expiration (3 hours), restart the tool to begin a new session
• No usage limits—restart as many times as needed

Hard Authentication System

ZeroTrace uses a cryptographic hard authentication system to ensure license validity:

Authentication Requirements:

• Valid internet connection (for initial validation handshake)
• Accurate system time synchronization
• Up-to-date SSL certificates
• Valid license credentials

Authentication Process:

1. Tool connects to licensing servers with cryptographic proof
2. Server validates license status, expiration, and time-based constraints
3. Session token issued for 3-hour window
4. Periodic re-verification during session (optional depending on connectivity)

Error Code Reference

When ZeroTrace OSINT encounters an issue during startup or operation, it displays an error code (format: E###). Use this reference to diagnose problems.

Quick Diagnostic Commands

Check System Time (UTC)

# Linux
timedatectl  # Should show "System clock synchronized: yes"
date -u      # Show current UTC time

# macOS
date -u      # Show current UTC time

# Windows PowerShell
Get-Date -AsUTC

# Should match official time within 1 second
# Reference: time.nist.gov or time.google.com

Test Network Connectivity

# Ping DNS
ping 8.8.8.8

# Test HTTPS to licensing server
curl -v https://secure.zerotrace.pw

# Check firewall isn't blocking
# Windows: Settings > Firewall > Allow app through firewall
# macOS: System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall Options
# Linux: sudo ufw status

Force Time Sync

# Linux
sudo timedatectl set-ntp on
sudo ntpdate -s time.nist.gov

# macOS
sudo sntp -sS time.apple.com

# Windows (PowerShell as Admin)
Set-Date -Date ((Get-Date).AddSeconds(-$((Get-Date) - (Get-Date -AsUTC))))
# OR manually: Settings > Time & Language > Date & Time > Sync now
