Intelligence reports/ techniques
Description
This week we will focus on your better understanding of what is going on with the situation described by the intelligence reports you reviewed last week. There is no new required reading to do, now you just need to start doing some initial analyses. Though if you need more familiarity with an intelligence technique, feel free to do it yourself (typically a google or youtube search, any old notes from previous classes).
By the end of this week your ASAC has directed you to turn in two due-outs(e first being a spreadsheet, and the second being your initial work using an another analytic technique of your choice.
Reports from last week:

Useful links to complete this new assignment:
For the first part of the analysis, thoroughly read all the intelligence provided in the initial intelligence dump and create a spreadsheet (using excel) with the actors (individuals, organizations, or companies) you found in the initial intelligence.
- On this spreadsheet also tie these actors to available intelligence on addresses, SIGINT selectors (phone numbers, email address, social media, and internet sites.
- For these lines of data, provide a reference to tie the specific information to the intelligence report (so that you can easily track the specific intelligence back to the specific intelligence report).
- Save the spreadsheet with your name (lastname, firstname) and date (Month, Day, Year), using no spaces: For Example, if I submitted on on January 12, 2023, it would be: ClarkTimothy01122023.
- Attach the spreadsheet to this assignment.
Save a copy for yourself as this will be the primary means by which you keep track of the actors in your overall analysis. You will be adding more intelligence to this spreadsheet in the weeks ahead (and resubmitting later drafts of this spreadsheet).

Part B:
In addition to the spreadsheet above, you should be using one of the other intelligence techniques that was discussed in last weekàdiscussion. For this assignment, show your initial progress at an attempt using one of those techniques (such as a Link Analysis/Association Analysis, Telephone Record Analysis, Event Charting/Event Flow and Activity Flow Analysis, Commodity Flow, Financial Analysis, or other someone suggested). At this point, it need not be pretty, but should show some work. If the technique just does not work with the current intelligence reports that you have, then switch to another (possibly coming back to that technique later). Attach the initial product (word, excel, PowerPoint, or pdf) to this assignment. [This is worth up to 25 points]
