Issues/Bugs/Updates:

  • (Status: Working on it) Posts in lesson discussions display the user's full name. I am researching the ability to use an alias, but this is not natively supported currently. In the meantime, I recommend editing your profile to remove your real name if that is what you used to sign up.
  • Site Functionality Update - Context menu enabled for lesson text. This was a fix for the issue of not being able to right-click and open links in a new tab.
  • Reference Sheet Mod-Dates - Going forward lesson notes/reference sheets will get a modified date in the format v.month.year
  • Updates - Account Creation notes updated (this is a good time to remind everyone that the notes/reference sheets will be updated more often than the videos, so they are always the most up to date information)
  • Updates- OSINT EssentialsSearchOperators_v82020.pdf fixed minor errors/typos, version indicator added
  • Testing New Support Chat - If anyone wants to help, we are testing a new platform for potential use in offering more interactive discussion/support. If anyone wants to help test, we have a discussion going at https://www.inteltechniques.net/manage/discussion/posts/1061113 It’s totally optional and experimental at this point. This is just a more interactive, private chat space that we may end up using for our practicals next year and in the meantime it is a venue to offer some more direct help when people need a back and forth. No one needs to monitor or keep tabs on it aside from me. I do not want anyone to have yet another "online community” to keep track of each day.
