In this video, Joshua Richards walks through Week 7 of the UK OSINT CTF, focusing on how Python can be applied in real investigative workflows. This session demonstrates how scripting and automation can support structured data triaging, parsing, enrichment, and analysis within a capture-the-flag challenge.

Rather than relying solely on manual searching, the walkthrough shows how Python can be used to scale investigations, extract signal from large datasets, and document repeatable methodology. The emphasis is on building transparent, defensible processes that support professional OSINT work across policing, journalism, and intelligence contexts.
