I have come to the conclusion that if I don't find a job by the end of March, I am retiring. I will be closing this account on March 31.

a major american city is being forced to close schools because armed government agents are raiding and pepper spraying and terrorizing children and teachers for social media content
They stopped him. Broke the car window. Terrorized him. And then disappeared him. Look at the exchange. It's terrifying. This could be any of our children.
'Get out of the car.'
'I'm a U.S. citizen.'
'I don't care.'
I am honored to be selected to speak to the ISSA Cyber Executive Forum in December.

Silly scammers:
fixed a typo, was 2025
A very long con (how a criminal organization tried to trick me out of thousands) www.linkedin.com/pulse/very-l...
Of all the scammy, weird things the Josh Kraft campaign has done this feels uniquely bad and actually illegal.
The FTC requires that sponsored posts be labeled #ad or #sponsored. For months, Kraft paid Boston influencers thousands of dollars for Instagram posts with no disclosure. #mapoli #bospoli
Take a mental health day, cancel all meetings. Go for a long walk, in the woods, in a museum, both? Turn off the phone, the computer. Read fiction. Invest in you as the firm you're working for doesn't give a damn if you burn out, they'll just replace you.
For any women (including those who identify as women) who are in or want to be part of our profession. Edna Conway is an amazing person. If you are local to NH or close enough to travel within your budget, go and participate. www.diversifythinking.com/forward-toge...
What that means? Watch Colossus: the forbin project and learn.
FYI: The capital in the western empire was moved in 401 CE to Ravenna, 9 years before Rome was sacked. Ravenna remained in Imperial control until 751, years after the sole capital of the remaining Empire was Constantinople. Constantinople wasn't sacked until 1204, during the 4th Crusade.
Once again the presentation from Wendy Hou at Security BSides Las Vegas was worth coming to Las Vegas for. Anything else this week was bonus!
Once this is released, watch the recording.
Any member of Society of Information Risk Analysts (SiRA) should be very interested.
The Diana Initiative will be at DEFCON, and they need your help. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
There is a company that wants to interview me using whatsapp, should I presume scam?
The people at Microsoft sometimes have no clue about security. This is one of those: arstechnica.com/security/202...
That would need republicans to grow a spin and remember their oath.
Those of us who lead a cybersecurity organization need to change our tune, discuss how we're enabling business growth and development which is what risk management should be all about. #Unicon. 2/2
Love how Ron Gula is reminding us that for the most part what we do is successful. Too many CISOs are preaching "They sky is falling" and will fall if you don't do X, Y, and Z. And we wonder why business leaders don't listen. 1/2
Loving that Unicon is happening on National Unicorn Day. Sometimes my day job and my secret identity as an author collide in delightfully silly ways.
Please consider this very carefully as you update your risks, and as you consider exactly when you might bring in the FBI during a security incident response. 4/4
As the FBI continues to advocate for a public/private partnership, this becomes increasingly problematic as businesses continue to need to do business in places seen by our government as threats to national security.

If you manage security for a corporation, you now need to understand that Japan and Korea are now becoming a threat to the nation as understood by our government.
2/4
This is not about politics.
I am at an event listening to an FBI agent talk about China as a threat, and am thinking how China, Japan, and Korea are now cooperating due to the new tarifs. 1/4
βI don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness.β - Cory Booker .........put that in stone out front of our museums and libraries.
If you have the time, highly recommend Unicon: learn.scythe.io/e3t/Ctc/I8+1...

The barriers for entry are very real. Our profession NEEDS to have women's voices heard. It also needs the voices of other "minorities" heard.
I am glad SecureWorld Boston helped me hear what they had to say.
