Testimonials
"While at the FBI National Academy, I had the opportunity to learn Open Source Intelligence skills from Cecilia. Her specific class was one of the most interesting subjects taught in the intelligence curriculum. I was able to start using some of these skills immediately in my day to day work. She is a great instructor." --Layne Barnum, Public Safety "Cecilia is an absolute consummate professional both as an instructor in her on-line protection / risk management class, as well as her business as an intelligence analyst / private investigator at Meta Enterprises.

A pleasure to work with AND she gets results too!" --Mike Davis, Director, IT Security (CISO) at American Bureau of Shipping |
