Fills me with the same question I always have with stats like that:

20% increase in breaches?
20% increase in breaches *reported*?
20% increase in breaches *detected*?

From the data I’m never 100% confident of the correct narrative, and always spun all ways depending on vendors’ goal.

“I never heard of when a kid…”

When I was a kid, I knew nothing about nothing. When I grew up I (tried) to learn and fill in the blanks. I did not just assume that I’m anything I didn’t personally know about was wrong/fiction/conspiracy.

How big an ego do you need to make that leap?

Started my career running a colo-DataCentre.

The look of bewilderment when explaining “we run part of the Internet” or better, showing them the racks, cables and blinky lights is something I’ll never forget.

If it wasn’t a real data breach, and no tangible impact, orgs would have no issue being open and transparent. The fact that guidelines like these provide wiggle room for silence, is deafening

It’s strange (and terrifying), I’m currently in US on vacation (booked *long* before $currentTimes), and I’ve been discussing current events and issues with some locals, who were previously completely unaware of goings on (and not just recent, “happened yesterday” events either….)

I’ve been meaning to pickup new egg cups after smashing one of the set.

Not seen these yet (on vacation and away from hobby news). On the scale of “paint pot to Titan”, how scared should my wallet be?

I doubt anyone would….*intentionally*.

I also highly doubt the current administration is competent enough to be trusted the the centralised functions we’ve all accepted that US Institutions run for the global collective up until this point. And not sure we can pivot fast enough to avoid pain now

I want to make jokes in reply, but they all make me sad and (more) depressed….

DShield one might do what you need, couple of their recent articles covered findings from similar deployments.

They freely share data via API feeds if you want to poke around some datasets whilst you get a feel for what you’re looking to look for.
