Bookmarks

Bookmarks can be added to any returned search result. 


Bookmark colors can be assigned to categorize returned data from your search, making it easier to return to bookmarked results from the Bookmarks Menu. Your Bookmarks will be exported to your Maltego graph if you download your Maltego Search search results as a Maltego graph.


Compromised Record/s

Compromised records include compromised credentials and other personal identifier information which has been flagged as being related to known data breaches through a data provider. 


The Compromised Record list on the search result page provides you with a list of websites that experienced a data breach.


Data Lineage

Data lineage indicates how Maltego Search retrieves a specific result from the original search input. If there are multiple data lineages, this indicates that the same result was found in multiple databases. 


A larger number of data lineages can be indicative of a more relevant result.


Data Integrations

Data integrations are public and OSINT data sources which can be searched against using Maltego Search, allowing investigators to gather OSINT information using a Name, Alias, Email address, Phone number, or other starting input to collect personal identifiable information.


Occurrences

Occurrences indicate the number of times that Maltego Search matches a particular result from your initial search to a data category in your Results Window.


Properties

Properties provide metadata and other information related to a result, such as the database it was found in, IP address, URL, Name, Email, and more. 


The properties are dynamic, meaning the exact list will depend on the result and the data source.
