Further Examination into External Attack Surface

Lari Huttunen @svimes.inform.social · 3d

From Assets to Exposure: What Do You Really Risk? The Patrician asks what you own; the Thief asks what you expose. Your valuable assets are just targets if you don't map them to their real-world risk. Go from simple inventory to a clear, actionable Exposure map.

#Cybersecurity

Getting from assets to exposure, or why identifying critical attack surface exposed by your assets might not be that straightforward after all.

Know Your Weakest Wall: Exposure Assessment. The Watch can't guard every street. You need to know which doors are unlocked right now. This is the vital, pragmatic step of calculating your current #exposure, not just what's behind the wall.

#Cybersecurity

Getting started on reducing your public exposure requires an understanding of your digital assets through exposure assessment.

What it would look like if Finnish followed French orthography.
As someone who probably still goes as Mrs. Yanne in some French records, this somehow breaks my brain :D.

(BTW still bigly mad that literary Finnish wasn't codified based on Savo dialect. It would've been gloriously silly.)

It's all hands on deck. I am shamelessly asking, one more time, for reposts and signal boost as this bird glides toward a landing in a few hours. It's gonna be a beautiful book, and there aren't going to be very many available afterwards!

And this is of course not limited to #cybersecurity or #privacy, rather than human life in general.

So, you want to write for Fabricati Diem? Excellent. We’re always on the lookout for sharp minds, sharper keyboards, and the kind of cybersecurity insight that doesn’t read like it was generated by a ...

Republished an interesting piece from Satu Korhonen, a #finnish #AI researcher, on why adversarial testing is needed and how you can (and should) do it as well.

I'm happy to announce that I have started a new #cybersecurity #blog to replace my old, decommissioned one.

The first write-up is a republished vulnerability disclosure write-up from 2022. It was written by Joona Hoikkala and Tomi Koski.

Enjoy!

Miksi Suomen medioissa massiiviset mielenosoitukset Yhdysvalloissa eivät ole oikein mitenkään nähtävissä?

Mielenosoitusten syy kuitenkin demokratian puolustaminen, luulisi sen aiheen kelpaavan Ylellekin (vaikka persuthan sitä nykyään johtaa).

2-panel comic. On the left, text reads "Wearing your face mask like this....." above an image of Trump a golden crown wearing a flight helmet and an oxygen mask that only covers his mouth, not his nose. On the right, text reads "Is like you wearing your underwear like this" above a simple drawing of a person wearing underwear that exposes his dick. Below both images, the text reads: "So please wear your face mask properly!"

One of the important pillars for the new #blog are guest write-ups. If you are a #cybersecurity professional in need of a place to say something you cannot say on a company blog, this might be the solution.
