1 TRACE, a next-generation open-source intelligence (OSINT) and digital investigation platform, has announced the launch of its Pakistan-Based OSINT module, designed to provide unprecedented visibility into identities, communication patterns, and behavioral data tied to Pakistani phone numbers and national identity cards (CNICs). This feature marks a significant advancement in cross-border intelligence gathering, aiding agencies worldwide in countering terrorism, cybercrime, and transnational fraud.
Founded in 2024, 1 TRACE empowers investigative professionals with lawful access to publicly available and metadata-driven intelligence. By integrating SOCMINT (Social Media Intelligence), GEOINT (Geospatial Intelligence), CYBINT (Cyber Intelligence), and advanced data correlation techniques, the platform has quickly become a trusted tool among cybersecurity experts, law enforcement, journalists, and digital forensics teams.
Unlocking Data Behind Pakistani SIM Cards and CNICs
The new Pakistan-Based OSINT module enables users to:
Retrieve registered user identity from Pakistani phone numbers
Access national ID (CNIC) details linked to numbers
Correlate address and location data
Discover social media profiles and behavioral patterns
Map connections and potential threat affiliations
This module is particularly effective in regions facing terrorism or insurgency threats, as it breaks through the opacity traditionally surrounding foreign mobile data and offers real-world intelligence usable in court, surveillance, or cybercrime attribution.
Real-World Application: Unmasking a Threat Actor
In one case study, an investigative unit received threatening calls and social media messages from a Pakistani number suspected to be tied to a radical cell. Traditional tracing failed due to cross-border limitations. Utilizing 1 TRACE’s Pakistan-Based OSINT, the agency successfully resolved the identity behind the number, retrieving the individual’s CNIC details, address, and previously used Telegram handles. This intelligence supported a coordinated cyber operation involving international partners, averting a potential security incident.
A Trusted Platform for Advanced OSINT
1 TRACE’s capabilities extend beyond just regional intelligence. It is the first OSINT provider to offer integrated Bitcoin transaction tracing, enhancing visibility into darknet financial flows and crypto-enabled crimes. Its growing reputation is rooted in accurate insights, real-time data mining, and strict compliance with ethical frameworks.
