Recently there were revelations about a GHCQ initiative called ‘Lovely Horses’ to monitor certain hackers’ Twitter handles. The guys over at Paterva quickly whipped up a Maltego Machine to replicate this:

Building your own LovelyHorse monitoring system with Maltego (even the free version) – it’s easy!

We’ve wrapped some supporting transforms around that Machine to allow you to create and manage your own set of lovely horses (Twitter accounts), and dubbed it ‘Lovely Pwnies’. You can obtain the transforms and original Machine via the new Maltego Transform Hub.

The video below illustrates its usage:
