Apparently I volunteered myself to be a CFP reviewer for next year's WiCys conference.

I am so excited, y'all.

How is this not bigger news in tech/security circles.

Jaguar Land Lover lost $250M (£200M) and counting thanks to a cyberattack that it still couldn’t mitigate. This is growing every week.

The cost of underinvesting in security is very real. 1+ month recovery is bonkers

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?

It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Yes, we are still meeting at Twisted Spoke (501 N Ogden) this Thursday (21 August). Sometime around 18:30.

And then I'm going to have to find a new place and memorize the address.

ChiSec @chisec.bsky.social · Aug 6

Well 💩.

ChiSec on 21 August will still be at Spoke. Then we will move. Open to suggestions.

ChiSec @chisec.bsky.social · Jul 17

See you tonight at Twisted Spoke (501 N Ogden). If there is an unreasonable amount of sky water, check the back room. Otherwise, head to the roof.

We're meeting at Twisted Spoke (501 N Ogden) on Thursday around 18:30-20:30.

I'd add something witty or clever but the heat has cooked my brain.

2. Come to Twisted Spoke after 18:30.

Google's @hultquist.bsky.social says in an emailed statement that the company is seeing "multiple intrusions in the US" that bear the hallmarks of Scattered Spider activity and "now seeing incidents in the insurance industry." Google spox. confirmed there's more than one U.S.-based insurance victim.

Hm. That calendar link is... broken somehow. Working on fixing it.

ChiSec @chisec.bsky.social · May 25

A small bird told me that the next ChiSec was scheduled for Juneteenth so I'm moving it to 26 June.

Well 💩. I am rapidly developing a sore throat (which i likely got from @sockpuppet.org). Thought it might be allergies but it is not responding to $DRUGS. Since I do not wish to infect anyone, I am going to stay home.

Feel free to show up anyway. ChiSec is for YOU. I'm just a petty annoyance.

ChiSec @chisec.bsky.social · May 15

It's finally THURSDAY. Come to Twisted Spoke (501 N Ogden) any time after 18:30.
