LinkScope allows you to perform online investigations by representing information as discrete pieces of data, called Entities.

Overview

LinkScope Client

Description

This is the repository for the LinkScope Client Online Investigation software. LinkScope allows you to perform online investigations by representing information as discrete pieces of data, called Entities.

These Entities can then be explored through Resolutions, which take the attributes of Entities as input, and resolve them to different, but connected, pieces of information.

In that way, one can create a knowledge graph (or abstract art) for any particular domain, which should help investigators easily discover answers and insights that otherwise might have been hard to extract.

Features

Some notable features of LinkScope include:

Client

  • Graph visualisation of information and their relationships
  • Drag and drop interface to add new data
  • Timeline of events based on creation date of entities
  • Import browser tabs and take screenshots of your session
  • Display locations on a world map
  • Easily extensible to suit your specific needs

Server

  • Collaborate with others live on projects
  • Extract sentiment, entities and relationships from files
  • Extract text from over 100 types of documents, and get summaries of the content for large files
  • Ask the Oracle a question about the data, and receive an answer with context

Installation

Supported Platforms

Currently, Linux (Ubuntu, but most Debian derivatives should work) and Windows 10 are supported.

Note that the SFDP graph layout does not function on Windows, as an essential graph related library is not available on that platform. Windows also has a few more visual bugs than Linux, which are currently being worked on.

Installing the software

Since Version 1.0.0, installers are provided for Windows 10 and Linux (Ubuntu) platforms.

Download the latest installer for your platform from the Releases page, and run it to install the software: https://github.com/AccentuSoft/LinkScope_Client/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Running from source

One could also clone the repository and run the software as-is.

Some dependencies need to be installed in order for the software to work properly. After downloading the release correspoding to your platform from the Releases tab, please perform the following steps to install the required dependencies:

  1. Linux
    • sudo apt update && sudo apt install libopengl0 graphviz libmagic1 -y
    • pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
    • playwright install
  2. Windows

The software comes packaged in a 7zip archive. Uncompress the archive, and double-click the executable to start the software. On Windows, the executable should be named 'LinkScope.exe'. On Linux, it should be named 'LinkScope'.

Extending the software

LinkScope was built from the ground up to be modular! In this repository's wiki, there are instructions on how to create your own modules, which can contain custom Entities and Resolutions. There is also an example module in the Modules directory that can act as a template, and has a verbose description of most things that a module creator should need to consider.

Security and safety

A warning about using the software:

Do NOT use Resolutions obtained by untrusted sources.

Resolutions are essentially Python code that ingests information from various data sources. Make sure that the people providing you with code to run are trustworthy, and that you inspect all the modules you use before installing them. Pre-compiled binaries on systems without Python installed are not able to install new resolutions, so compiling custom versions of the client to suit your investigators' needs should effectively mitigate this risk.

    Resolving new nodes for resoluition stuck at 66%

    Hi, I'm new to linkscope, found it at reddit and I'm just trrying out wether its a serious competition for maltego. Therefore sorry for incorrect wording.

    Whenever i use a resolution (?) , new nodes will be created. All new nodes appear on the same spot. Shortly after, usually when i distribute them menually on the graph window, the shown dialogue appears. It takes some minutes until it disappears.

    i use the current portable version of Linkscope (downloaded it yesterday) on Windows 11. 2022-03-05 14_25_28-Greenshot

    Performance issue with a lot of nodes on screen

    We are aware that creating a lot of nodes causes the software to stutter.

    We will be revising the canvas drawing code, and trying to optimize it to handle more entities on the screen.

  • Transition to a compiled Python binary & Update installer

    Transition to a compiled Python binary & Update installer

    We are aware of certain issues affecting a few resolutions when utilizing pre-compiled binaries. This is due to how PyInstaller creates standalone applications, and is difficult to remediate.

    For version 1.3.8.0, we will provide binaries compiled with Nuitka, and assess how we want to move forwards.

  • Shortcut creation does not reliably work on the latest Linux kernel versions

    Shortcut creation does not reliably work on the latest Linux kernel versions

    Shortcut creation on GNOME desktops is unreliable, and often requires manual intervention (i.e. right click -> allow launching).

    In older versions, setting a .desktop file as trusted and refreshing the desktop worked; however this does not appear to be the case any more.

    What will most likely happen is the shortcut creation functionality will only create the .desktop file, and will let the user know they need to manually allow launching to have the shortcut work.

  • WhatsMyName is changing JSON File Format

    WhatsMyName is changing JSON File Format

    Wanted to make sure that you saw that WhatsMyName project is changing/has changed its JSON file. Issue https://github.com/WebBreacher/WhatsMyName/issues/414 shows the details. This will impact at least the recon/profiles-profiles/profiler.py module.

    Right now, and for a limited, short time forward, we will continue to make changes to both the old/current format and the new allowing tools like your's to make a smooth transition to the new format. The new format is also described https://github.com/WebBreacher/WhatsMyName/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md.

    The new JSON file (wmn-data.json - https://github.com/WebBreacher/WhatsMyName/blob/main/wmn-data.json) is already up and running. Please note that we also have a minified version of this JSON file that is auto-generated at https://github.com/WebBreacher/WhatsMyName/blob/main/wmn-data-min.json.

    Thanks.

    Node Operations - Scrape Websites, Screenshot Websites, Notes field to text file

    Add more interaction between the software and the entities, especially the websites.

    Users should be able to save / screenshot websites without having to manually visit them.

    The 'Notes field to Text file' operation should streamline the process of converting extracted text in Notes fields into files, which can then be uploaded to the server and processed.

    Feature Request: Add Dockbar Options to the View Menu

    Right clicking on the the toolbar at the top of the application window to select which Dockbars to view is not intuitive and it took me quite a while to figure out how to get my Dockbars back. :P Perhaps moving those options to the view menu would be optimal?

    Also, when I do right click the resulting menu interface it doesn't interactively highlight each option as I hover my mouse over it, as compared to the regular menu where the sub-menus do. Nexus-current_situation-no-highlight Nexus-current_situation-highlight png

  • Slow building and compiling

    Slow building and compiling

    Hello, I'm trying to build the application by running build.sh but the building process is slow. During it, I get some warning messages like:

    Nuitka:WARNING: Using very slow fallback for ordered sets, please install 'ordered-set' PyPI package for best Python
    Nuitka:WARNING: compile time performance.
    Nuitka-Plugins:WARNING: numpy: This plugin has been deprecated, do not enable it anymore.
    

    despite I installed python-ordered-set, and also the following warnings:

    Nuitka-Plugins:WARNING: anti-bloat: Unwanted import of 'unittest' encountered.               
    Nuitka-Plugins:WARNING: anti-bloat: Unwanted import of 'unittest.result' encountered.

    Nuitka-Plugins:WARNING: '--nofollow-import-to=tkinter' or uninstall it for best compatibility with pure Python execution.
    

    I'm working on Arch Linux. Is there a way to fix these warnings and speedup the compilation?
