    • Introduction to OSINT (video) Micah was very lucky to meet and get to work with the talented Ritu Gill, (@OSINTTechniques). At the recent Trace Labs (@TraceLabs) and SANS (@SANSDefense) Missing Persons CTF in Washington DC, they both noticed that many people wanted to participate but had no idea how to get started. After a few discussions, they decided to make an Introduction to OSINT video. https://osintcurio.us/2020/01/16/introduction-to-osint-video/
