Vital Clues Recovered: Liferaft Retains Key Details Before They Vanish.

The company was alerted by Liferaft and was able to retrieve an image of the original Tweet before its deletion. This enabled their team to obtain the full name of the threat actor, the content of the Tweet, and the timestamp.

With the acquired information, the team member used Liferaft's identity resolution tool, People Search, and was able to assemble a basic profile of the individual, including factors such as age, location, and any previous mentions of their company on their social media accounts.
