At this year's OSMOSISCon, we had the pleasure of hosting A Bright Spot, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to spreading joy and connection through handwritten letters. A Bright Spot’s mission is to bring joy to seniors, military personnel stationed far from home, children in foster care, refugee youth, hospital patients, and others in need of a lift. Thanks to our wonderful attendees, we signed and sent out 50 heartfelt cards, each carrying a message of support and kindness. 💌 Thank you to everyone who joined us in supporting this meaningful cause. If you'd like to continue spreading positivity, A Bright Spot is always welcoming more volunteers!

We had a ton of OSINT pros get certified through our OSC exams. Congratulations to everyone and thank you for helping us standardize the OSINT profession!
