One cannot underestimate the creativity and ingenuity of a service member until you see a keg in the middle of a field op.

1990: Clifford Stoll's book "The Cuckoo's Egg" was turned into an episode of NOVA entitled "The KGB, the Computer, and Me". To avoid spoiling it, let's say it's a story of how he tracked down a hacker who broke into his employer's computer. Watch for free! https://t.co/FZSRWwX6Lt

OSCP+ expires in 3 years 😬

I’m fine if it was like a reoccurring needed to update it like ISC2 does but more technical or whatever. Having a cert expire every three years is rough.

UPDATE - A system outage is impacting the county's website, call center, and other services including some bill pay systems. We are working with the vendor to restore services as soon as possible.

Massive data breach at SiSense - a business intelligence platform.

Actors allegedly compromised network, exfiltrated data and could potentially contain customer data.

Highly recommend if using SiSense, to look at the following:

* Change passwords of any SiSense accounts including customer service accounts / shared accounts.
* Reset API keys used for Sisense service if applicable.
* Look for any unusual activity dating from April 5th, 2024 and onward.

Right now, it's in the early stages on what occurred and the extent of compromise is still widely unknown.
