It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

TIL the windows clipboard is way more complicated than I thought.

Good Monday morning tech nerds. One of my devs wrote *another* blog post about kerberos (I'm creating an army of crazy bloggers). This one you might consider bookmarking.

Who else nearly fell out of the seat when you heard Cosplay Kristi accuse Sen. Padilla of “political theater”?

Went up to NYC to see a couple Pinback shows. Had pizza, had bagels, both shows were great, a good time was had by all.

I was skeptical but this seems really well thought out. I’ve had plenty of ideas that I didn’t think were worth the trouble of creating a project. This lowers that barrier to a single file. devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/annou...

Here's a PDF version of the CIA Guide to Sabotaging Fascism: 🔗 www.404media.co/heres-a-pdf-...

Would never have guessed Rockstar used Windows, IIS, and MSSQL for some of there backend.

First couple weeks of being a blue teamer has been eye opening. I was a sysadmin before becoming a red teamer, so I had a lot of sympathy for defenders in my previous life, but man there is so much skill to defending at scale. Humbled by the people getting me up to speed. True rock stars.

That’s enough internet for me today.

Super stoked to be able to say that I’m starting a new gig as a Principal Detection Engineer at Red Canary this week. I think both the job and company are going to be a killer fit for me. Really excited about officially joining the blue team side of things and making the world a little safer.

New from 404 Media: the Signal clone the Trump administration uses was just hacked. TeleMessage makes a modified version of Signal that archives messages for government agencies, Waltz used it. A hacker got some users' messages, group chats. Hugely significant breach www.404media.co/the-signal-c...

honestly this shit would have had me joining the Foot Clan too

Well.. that’s not great. www.theverge.com/news/649314/...

'equality in space tourism' is not something one can write with a straight face

Infosec must not remain silent while Trump goes after Chris Krebs: www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

So I stuck up for Sean Plankey as future CISA, now time to stick up for Chris Krebs, past CISA - this shit is bonkers and should give pause to anyone even considering federal employment if this kind of shit is what you get for doing your job: www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/...

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Boondock Saints is better than Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Unemployment pro tip: volunteer! I’ve always wanted to volunteer but it was hard to make time. Now I have nothing but time! I’m going through training at an animal shelter so I can go take dogs on walks and assist with events and stuff. Adds some structure and more dogs to my life. Everyone wins!

Active Directory isn't going anywhere, but security pros lack key knowledge. 🧠 Join @jimsycurity.adminsdholder.com & Darryl Baker at @bsidescharm.bsky.social for their AD Security 101 training, which aims to give you tools to find & fix misconfigurations attackers exploit. bsidescharm.org

When I was like 14 some friends and I were skating down from the top floor of a parking garage, and as my then best friend was rounding the first corner, I heard what sounded like a thud. I sped up to see if he got hurt and instead see him cartoonishly splayed out on the hood of a cop car.

Applying for infosec jobs while living in the DMV is nuts. If I see one more job that requires a TS plus poly I’m going to scream.

Baltimore continues to be a pretty good decision.

Stolen from somewhere else. But still very funny 😂

I still don’t know how I feel about OST tooling these days, but happy to see there’s some decent detection guidance here on top of the great research.

Don't miss my teammates as they present the 2025 Red Canary Threat Detection Report tomorrow afternoon! This report is overwhelming with goodness, and they'll help you navigate it. 😀 redcanary.com/resources/we...

Finding a good therapist can be really difficult, but it’s worth it. My favorite part is you’re literally paying them to hear you talk about your issues. It helps with that feeling that you’re burdening someone with your problems. A good therapist doesn’t judge and works with you where you’re at.

I applied for a Red Team position on 2/16. Was told that they went with a different applicant on 3/2, and got an invite for interview today. Job hunting is wild these days.

Cloudflare took my advice and built their web-based RDP client using IronRDP — with the RDCleanPath protocol extension we pioneered in Devolutions Gateway. Apache Guacamole and Azure Bastion, watch out: there's a superior design in town, and it came from @devolutions.net 💪🚀

Beauty and grace.

Hey #dotnet - if we had some kind of built-in SDK/Runtime acquisition tool (a la rustup or nvm), how would you expect it to be delivered? What would you call it (as a command name)?

One of my primary motivations for getting a job is so I can go back to never using LinkedIn. It’s a social network for psychopaths.

Enter the Gungeon is $1.50 on Steam right now, which is nigh criminal for how good it is.

I actually heard someone in real life use “woke” derisively for the first time today. It was about a video game (Avowed) and then conversation moved to Joe Rogan and UFC. Wild to see internet troll accounts show up in real life.

It is kinda funny that people are going wow Canada seems pretty united and pissed off and yeah I guess threatening to take over someone’s homeland and trying to economically ruin them might make folks a little upset that’s wild
