I won’t be at CYBERWARCON this year so I need someone to give @hultquist.bsky.social a hard time for me. I don’t yet know why he deserves this, but I’m sure a reason will present itself between now and then. The man never disappoints in the shenanigans and tomfoolery department.

Gosh does @cyberwarcon.bsky.social have a talk for you!

DMV folks, I'll be in town for CYBERWARCON this year. I'm proud to say I'll be giving a lightning talk about a certain APT group, and their association with some interesting corners of the nuclear sector.

More details to follow!

🚨🚨🚨 Google released a report on "Brickstorm" this morning — a next-level, suspected China-linked campaign targeting U.S. firms. Ultra-stealthy, 400+ day dwell times, focus on stealing IP, finding zero-days, and focused on long-term cyberespionage. cyberscoop.com/chinese-cybe...

We are expecting several organizations who use this tool and actively hunt for this threat will find that this actor has been active in their networks for some time.

Last week to get your @CYBERWARCON submissions in! Don’t miss out!

We've got some good submissions flowing into the @CYBERWARCON CFP, but there's still time for more. If you have good content, and you're worried the honorarium won't cover your travel, please submit, and we'll work it out. We do this because we believe this research matters.

Finland is so small that I once visited and Mikko found me in a bookstore.

Finland is so nerdy that today’s top celebrity news in the largest tabloid concerns a cybersecurity expert (tietoturvaguru) starting a new job at a mobile operator. This is our Kylie Kardashian.

Tech startup idea: instead of starting your car with your key, you get in, turn on the display panel, enter your password, get your phone out, open the authenticator app, enter your pin, enter the timed passcode, then open the start menu, then helpdesk, then "request engine start", then submit a tic

Major Update: We now believe this incident impacts other Salesloft Drift integrations, not just Salesforce. We’re advising Salesloft Drift customers to treat any and all authentication tokens stored in or connected to the Drift platform as potentially compromised.
