Experts: Dmytro Zolotukhin, Dmytro Odnokoz

The raccoon, who lived in occupied Kherson, was captured by the occupiers in November 2022. In captivity he was subjected to various technological experiments, as a result of which he developed extraordinary mental abilities and a native proficiency of the Ukrainian language. Raccoon decided to work undercover, using his own abilities for the benefit of Ukraine. In his guerilla activities he is known by the call sign "Bylava", and is engaged in open source intelligence (OSINT).

 

Bylava leads a team of Ukrainian teenage hackers, which you can join. But first you need to practice. So, over the course of several series, Bylava will teach you how to use basic OSINT tools on real Ukrainian cases.

 

The educational series was created by the Institute of post-information society on the initiative of the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine for the Diia.Education platform.
