# Investigations+ (Beta)

Investigation+ is WhiteIntel’s premium forensic suite, designed to transform raw log data into actionable intelligence. By leveraging neural correlation and autonomous heuristics, this module allows analysts to de-anonymize targets, visualize lateral exposure, and prioritize critical assets through a centralized dashboard experience.

> ⚠️ Platform Availability: This module is accessible exclusively through the WhiteIntel Web Dashboard. To protect the integrity of our identity graph and the compute-heavy neural models involved, this feature is not available via the  API.

### 🚀 Core Capabilities

The Investigation+ module is built around four pillars of forensic discovery:

## 1. Comprehensive Assets Discovery

The Investigation+ module provides a comprehensive inventory of all known assets connected to the target username or email. This view consolidates fragmented log data into a unified forensic profile.

### 1.1. Connected Assets

The engine aggregates and displays:

* Computer Names: Hostnames of every infected machine linked to the target.
* IP Addresses: History of connection points and network origins.
* Observed Countries: Geographic anchoring based on IP telemetry and TLD analysis.
* Related Accounts: Secondary usernames, aliases, and emails used by the same individual.
* Passwords: A curated list of observed passwords, useful for identifying credential reuse patterns.

#### 1.2. Application Intelligence

The Results Tab also features a Detailed List of Affected Applications, showing every service, portal, or software package where the target's credentials have been captured.

## 2. Neural Identity Resolution

The engine performs linguistic forensics across thousands of data points to extract real-world identities from digital aliases.

* Cultural Anchoring: Matches surname patterns with detected geographic anchors (e.g., matching Pinyin names with `.gov.cn` assets).
* Cross-Log Correlation: Aggregates identifiers from multiple infected systems to build a single "Primary Identity" profile.

## 3. Forensic Graph Reconstruction

Visualize how a threat actor or target moves across a network. The graph maps the relationship between Infected Systems, Related Accounts, and Applications.

* Interactive Expansion: Click nodes to perform "Deep Dives" into secondary pivots.
* Application Nodes: Identify specific services where credentials were exfiltrated.

## 4. Smart Credential Prioritization

Instead of manually sorting through thousands of rows, the system automatically flags credentials based on their institutional value.

* High-Value Tags: Automatic categorization of Gov, Edu, and Malicious (Underground Forum) logins.
* Risk Context: Prioritizes administrative access and internal infrastructure portals.

## 5. Automated Risk Scoring

Every investigation is assigned a Risk Index based on the severity of the exposed data.

* Critical: Access to Government infrastructure or active presence on Tier-1 malicious forums.
* Elevated: Access to corporate VPNs, Cloud management panels, or financial portals.

### 🛠 Using the Module

There are two primary ways to initiate a Neural Investigation. Currently, investigations are supported for usernames and email addresses.

#### Method A: The Investigations Tab

Users can navigate directly to the Investigations tab to manage existing cases or start a new manual lookup for a specific target identity.

#### Method B: Global Search Integration

When using the Global Search bar, the system will provide an indication if an AI Analysis is available for a given entry. This allows for a seamless transition from a general search to a deep forensic dive.
