Our latest @rapid7.com analysis does a deep dive into the #ransomware eco-system revealing "80 active groups in Q1, 16 of them new since January 1. There are also 13 groups that were active in Q4, 2024, but have thus far been silent in 2025" www.rapid7.com/blog/post/20... #malware #cybersecurity

Well done to @troyhunt.com for owning his Mailchimp data breach. Not so much “well done” to Mailchimp for now support FIDO Passkeys yet!!

For IT managers in SME: if you want a secure yet convenient remote access to company devices, I recommend RustDesk and @tailscale.com Configure RustDesk not allow direct IP access and not to advertise anything to the Internet. The security of connection is delivered by Tailscale.

@nathanmcnulty.com thank you for the excellent podcast on operational groups. It’s great to see the ingenious ways to plug vast gaps that Microsoft leaves in their disjointed products.

I wanted to thank the team at Cyber Daily for the opportunity to discuss details of our latest research in which we do a deep dive into prevalent #ransomware groups, and the evolving TTPs of APT groups. www.cyberdaily.au/digital-tran... #infosec #cybersecurity

Since Apple might take away Advanced Data Encryption from existing users in the UK, I’ve been on the hunt for a better alternative. And guess what? I found one. It’s called Syncthing from syncthing.net and is proudly mentioned on the SecurityNow podcast.

I didn’t know I am well-known? 😂😂 @tomsguide.com

This story resonates with me. Technology companies don’t communicate with parents sufficiently about the options available protect their family in these situations. That said, as a parent, I find it strange that it took them so long to even notice this, especially as their daughter is 8 years old.

@proton.me Hi. Are there proton apps for Linux (I use Fedora), especially Drive, Mail proxy and Pass?

website setup and a new page added: Apple resources - useful tools and videos for Apple users. Especially those migrating from Windows. vladimir.jirasek.uk/resources/ap...

Yesterday, 24th February 2025, I received the heartbreaking news that one of the cybersecurity vendors I had worked with since 2006, Skybox Security, has closed its doors. My thoughts are with all the former employees whose lives have been suddenly disrupted. vladimir.jirasek.uk/blog/2025/02...

OWASP Foundation support many initiatives. One of them, OWASP Top 10 for LLM Apps & Gen AI Agentic Security Initiative, have released an updated version of “Agentic AI - Threats and Mitigations” document. Link: genaisecurityproject.com/initiatives/ #agenticai #owasp #threatmodeling

The Series 1 of the Zero Day is behind me. Worth a watch? Yeah! And I must correct my assertion: this is not based on Mark Russinovich book of the same name.

A sunny day in our city. I feel the energy of the Spring just around the corner.

Allegedly the owner of the company “Dr. Schwartz disregarded basic security measures necessary to protect that information from malicious cyberattacks” #health #cybersecurity thanks @404media.co for the article www.404media.co/beverly-hill...

People that call for “let’s go to Mars” might instead focus their resources to “let’s fix Earth”.

It is going to be long evening. A Netflix series based on my favourite book by @markrussinovich.bsky.social is out today!

If you use Signal and your threat model includes Russian state actors, make sure your version of Signal is up to date in order to harden your account against these attacks: cloud.google.com/blog/topics/...
