I've been seeing posts all over about the state of CTFs post-LLM. I've seen many attempts to explain why this is just a new evolution of CTFs, but I fundamentally disagree. I believe the original spirit is gone and I've written why in my blog.

The only cybersecurity barrier that Mythos has lowered is the level of cybersecurity knowledge in the people talking about AI and cybersecurity.

@Jhaddix Osprey Archeon is excellent. Has multiple sizes based on how "big" you want. Great weatherproofing, can easily fit 2 laptops, and looks good too IMO. And Osprey's customer service is legendary.

There is this strange phenomena where people new to cybersecurity go way overboard trying to look cool and badass to give the facade of being really technical.

I'll tell you something right now. You probably won't like to hear it, but it is important.

Nobody cares about:
- Your certificates
- The conferences you've attended
- Your vendor swag
- What OS you're using
- How many LED's your computer has

Here is what your peers admire the most:
- If you're polite
- If you're willing to admit if you're wrong
- If you're easy to get along with

If you're just a chill nerd who is nice, easy going, willing to admit when you're wrong, you will go further than the big mean nerd with the galaxy brain

So when you call into Fidelity, they have you put your password in via phone. All letters are converted to numbers and any special characters are simply an asterisk. So [abcABC2] all convert to "2". "hunter2!" password is "4868372*". This scares me in how the passwords are stored

DRM is a system for prohibiting legal conduct that manufacturers and their shareholders don't like.

Laws like the US DMCA 1201 (and its equivalents all over the world) ban tampering with DRM, even if no copyright infringement takes place.

Let's make this simple: Zoom is malware.

Net Neutrality is a serious issue.
Don't wait to call your representatives.

They can take away our freedoms,
and they can ruin the internet.

Kaspersky can MITM everything on a MAC after installing it. The cert remains there even after uninstalling the product.

CactusCon is coming up soon, September 29-30. Bring your laptops on day 1 (Friday) if you want to do the CTF. https://t.co/N02tOC1UkP

@dejandayoff @sudophantom @IanGuile Does this answer your question?

No matter how this shakes out, tomorrow morning I'm going to wake up and be an American, and that's pretty damn great for me. #ElectionNight
