Lessons from the community

LEARNING FROM OTHERS

[…] procurement data and procedures concentrated in only one website, they established limitations of its search capabilities and used "word distortion techniques". We found about 10 tricks to hide the data: •  Cyrillic chars instead Latin chars looking like the same •  Cyrillic chars instead Latin chars for products with Latin

name, like "Hyundai" or "Microsoft" •  unreasonable use of "-" inside words –e.g., The ten-der

to bu-y mi-lk. •  large amount of mistakes –up to 10 mistakes per

sentence…

Everyone is welcome!
