Testimonials

“I took the courses on financial intelligence when I started working on the terrorist financing file as a whole, related to the public safety domain. I needed to learn quickly and had no prior knowledge of the subject. The courses helped me understand the fundamentals, key methodologies, and sources used in financial intelligence very well. The content in the terrorist financing bundle was thorough and useful, with material suitable for different levels of expertise. Insight Threat Intelligence has a very good reputation in the field and the courses met my expectations fully.”
