Description

This tool can help you in your OSINT investigation on Proton service (for educational purposes only).
ProtOSINT is separated into 3 sub-modules:

  • [1] Test the validity of one protonmail account
  • [2] Try to find if your target has a protonmail account by generating multiple addresses by combining information fields inputted
  • [3] Find if your IP is currently affiliate with ProtonVPN

⚠️ Important update of the ProtonMail API [2021-11-07] ⚠️

For several days, we observe an update in ProtonMail's API:

  • The API now seems to be limited to a few queries (ten/fifteen requests).
  • The blocking time is one hour (the limitation seems to be by IP address).
  • Even if an email is not valid, the API will return a result that seems valid with a random timestamp.
  • However, if the email is really valid, the timestamp returned is still good.

Advice for using ProtOSINT nowadays

  • Use only modules 1 and 3.
  • Before using module 1, first, test the validity of your email with a third party....
