# Report 02: Domain Intelligence Summary
**Date:** 2026-03-03
**Analyst:** Claude (automated OSINT)
**Classification:** Passive OSINT — No exploitation attempted
**Tools Used:** THOT Domain Intel, THOT Email Hunter, THOT Domain Harvester, WhatWeb, httpx, subfinder, dnsrecon

## Executive Summary

Comprehensive passive reconnaissance of Burkina Faso's digital infrastructure identified 255 domains across 20+ sectors, with 132+ confirmed alive. Deep technical analysis on 11 high-priority targets revealed a fragmented digital landscape: a shared TYPO3 government platform (defense, security ministries), scattered WordPress/Joomla deployments, and one standout — the national cybersecurity agency ANSSI running Django with the strongest security posture of all. Critical findings include ONATEL (national telecom/TLD operator) exposing a database admin panel, ONEA (national water utility) operating on an expired domain, ARCEP (domain authority) running wildcard DNS, and the Police Academy exposing its entire cPanel/WHM hosting stack.
