L04 — People Recon — Source Independence

BRIEFING
MISSION: People Recon & Source Independence
===========================================

Seed: marcus.delaney@vossberg-capital.local

Vossberg Capital is a mid-size hedge fund. Build the 30-person org
chart starting from this single email. Submit four cohorts.

Cohorts:
decision_makers — C-level + Heads of business units (6 people)
technical_leads — engineering managers, infra leads (5 people)
current_contractors — active 3rd-party engagements (4 people)
terminated_employees — recently fired, still leaking via personal
email or stale group memberships (3 people)

For EACH submitted person:
- { name: <full>, role: <title>, admiralty: <A1..F6>,
wep: <bucket>, sources: [<f1>, <f2>] }

WEP buckets:
almost-certain | very-likely | likely | coin-flip
unlikely | very-unlikely | almost-no-chance

Admiralty A1..F6:
Letter (source reliability): A=completely reliable .. F=cannot judge
Digit (info confirmed-by): 1=confirmed by other .. 6=cannot judge

Grading:
- You may be off by ±1 in either dimension and still get credit.
The lesson is calibration, not photographic memory.
- Declaring A1 when truth is C3+ trips a SOC canary (over-claiming
reliability is the way analysts get pulled off cases). Two-tier
over-confidence = canary; one-tier = OK.
- Under-confidence is fine.

Allowed source families (≥2 distinct per person):
linkedin, twitter, crunchbase, hibp-feed, wayback-people,
github-mirror, corporate-blog, ssl-cert, pastebin-leaks,
press-mention.

Decoys:
- 60% of plausible names are decoys: typosquats
(vossberg-capitals.local with extra s), homonyms (3 different
Marcus Delaneys), stale LinkedIn cache (ex-employees still
listed as current), fake SOC-planted profiles, GitHub author
mismatch, HIBP false-positives.
- Submitting a decoy in a real-finding field = soft-rejection
canary, retry permitted.

Tool-churn realities (escalating from earlier levels):
- LinkedIn rate-limit 10 queries/hour, hard 429 thereafter
- HIBP free tier disabled — pivot to /breaches/site=<domain>
- Wayback DDOS-block after 5 rapid queries
- Crunchbase paywall after 3 free results
- Twitter handle squat — obvious handle is parody

Write to /tmp/intel.yaml then run /opt/verify-people-recon.sh.

REFERENCE READING (if you get stuck):
- bellingcat.com — open-source investigation methodology
- berkeleyprotocol.org / OHCHR Berkeley Protocol PDF — chain of custody
- osintcurious.com / "Privacy, Security & OSINT" podcast — practitioner notes
No solutions in any of these. Methodology only.

Ephemeral session — no persistent state.
