A CLASSROOM OSINT REFRESHER TRAINING COURSE OVER 3 DAYS

CLASSROOM OSINT REFRESHER TRAINING

A Classroom Course over 3 Days for Private and Closed Groups. The OSINT Refresher has 6 Modules.

This course is for OSINT practitioners that might have got into a rut, using the same limited set of processing techniques in their investigations. It is well suited for returners and self taught investigators, but it is not appropriate for beginners.

The training will bring you up to speed with the GDPR which affects every investigation and the OSINT capabilities that are well established, but where the processing techniques might have changed and developed.

If you have not had any OSINT since Facebook deprecated the graph search and TikTok gained traction, this course is for you!

MATERIALS PROVIDED WITH THE COT-P-R
