btw our public (!) supply chain threat feed, Aikido Intel, includes VS Code threats

filter on malware -> VS Code

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

Just sayin'

[Madeline Lawrence @madelinelawren]

.@github you need to use aikido device protection

it would have blocked that malicious VS Code extension from compromising your team member's laptop

[Aikido Security @AikidoSecurity]

GitHub was hacked via a malicious VS Code extension that compromised an employee’s laptop.

This is *exactly* why we built 'Aikido Device Protection'
https://t.co/kfS8HRkZOV

It protects devices from installing malicious IDE extensions, browser extensions, and packages.

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

@madelinelawren 2026 vibes 🫠 a few extensions → ~3,800 affected repos

[Aikido Security @AikidoSecurity]

Aikido Intel is your earliest warning for supply chain threats.

Our engine detects malware and vulnerabilities in open-source ecosystems within minutes.

We hunt for the gaps that others deny,

Ethical hacking thrives on creativity and relentless curiosity. I’ve been exploring this ever since I joined https://t.co/xG5kl3GFM1 8 months ago.

There’s nothing I love more than surfacing that creative, rebellious spirit that drives our team.

PS: Stick around for (a lot) more

[Pentest-Tools.com @pentesttoolscom]

We're coming to @DefCampRO and we're bringing the goods! [ 📣 Sound on.]

If you're into #ethicalhacking, drop by our booth in the Hacking Village. We'd love to talk to you and share knowledge, stickers, and more.

See you next week! 😎

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

I'm beyond excited to take part in my first cybersecurity conference along @pentesttoolscom!

[Pentest-Tools.com @pentesttoolscom]

Could this be the ethical hacker's motto?

PS: We're cooking up something for you, fellow pentesters. Meet us @DefCampRO 2022. 🏴‍☠️

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

@DenisJeliazkov Or one can just hire me to shoot and edit for them 🙋🏻‍♂️👀

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

@DenisJeliazkov @MSewillo That sounds awesome! Thanks for the info @DenisJeliazkov

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

@AndraZaharia Codiță to the right! ❤️

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

@DenisJeliazkov Rooting for you, man! Keep it up 🦾

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

@AndraZaharia Can't agree more! It's an instant turn-off when I see content creators post lists that include "should/must do x in order to become successful" type of items.

[Mario Popescu @MarioPopescu10]

@AndraZaharia 🤗 Celebration time
