Maltego Masterclass — From Fundamentals to Automated Complex OSINT Analysis

Master Maltego systematically: From installation through professional network visualization to automated workflows with Custom Sets. Foundation Training + Advanced Training in one course — featuring exclusive corma Custom Sets available nowhere else.

Technical terms explained simply:
Maltego uses “Transforms” (automated research functions) to investigate “Entities” (people, emails, domains, phone numbers, etc.) and visualize them in a “Graph” (interactive network diagram).

Numerous investigators and analysts have already elevated their OSINT capabilities to a new level with our Maltego training

You've Installed Maltego — But Where Do You Start?

Maltego is one of the most powerful OSINT tools for network analysis and visualization. But that's exactly the problem:

The flood of Transforms is overwhelming.

Hundreds of available transformations, dozens of data sources, countless possibilities. Without structured guidance, you get lost in trial and error. Which Transforms do you really need? What sequence makes sense?

Standard workflows are inefficient.

You laboriously click through individual Transforms but don't know which combinations deliver the best results. Every person-of-interest investigation takes hours because you lack reproducible workflows.

Visualizations are chaotic.

Your Graph explodes in all directions. Hundreds of Entities without clear structure. You can't see the forest for the trees. Which connections are relevant? How do you filter out noise?

The solution: Systematic training from Foundation to Advanced.

This Masterclass gives you complete Maltego competency: From your first Entity to automated Custom Sets that perform complex POI analyses in minutes. With exclusive corma workflows developed from 35+ years of investigation practice.

2 Modules — From Basics to Automation

The Maltego Masterclass combines Foundation and Advanced Training in one course. You don't just learn how Maltego works, but how to use it professionally for OSINT investigations — with custom workflows that accelerate your research tenfold.

→ What this means for you: From zero to professional level in one course

No prior knowledge required. After Foundation, you'll master the basics. After Advanced, you'll automate complex analyses with Custom Sets available nowhere else.

Structured Methodology

What this means for you:

No chaotic experimentation. From your first Entity to complete network analysis. Every step logically structured. You always know which Transform comes next and why.

Exclusive Custom Sets

Your advantage:

Speed through automation. corma Custom Sets developed exclusively for this course. Example: The “POI Social Media Set” searches professional data sources across 12+ platforms with one click, finds profiles, and visualizes connections — in under 5 minutes. Manually, this would take hours.

Professional Visualization

In practice:

Clarity instead of chaos. Learn how to structure Graphs, use layouts, and highlight relevant connections. Your analyses become understandable and presentable.

Certified Trainer

What this means for you:

Learn from a real Maltego expert. Jörn Weber is a certified Maltego and Maltego Evidence Trainer (formerly Social Network Harvester). You learn the methodology used daily at corma for DAX corporations and government agencies.

Lesson 3: Custom Sets — The Core

corma Custom Sets: Developed exclusively for this course

What you'll learn:

  • Understand Custom Sets (what makes them better than Built-In Sets?)
  • Use Person-of-Interest Custom Sets
  • Social Media Custom Workflows (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn)
  • Leak Database Custom Sets
