Reminder: Everything you do is either goal achieving, or stress relieving.

Make sure you balance between the two is correct.

🔥 This Is Fine | The State of Pen Testing

"If you talk to a dozen pen testers and ask them what a pen test is, you're going to get a dozen different answers."

Penetration testing has long been a cornerstone of enterprise security — but the landscape continues to evolve.

In this episode of the Hunter Strategy podcast, AJ King (@ScrumWhat), Jake Williams (@MalwareJake), and Joshua Marpet (@quadling - Sr. Product Security Consultant at Finite State, Faculty Member at IANS) discuss how penetration testing fits into modern enterprise risk management strategies.

From compliance requirements to real-world security validation, the conversation explores how organizations can approach testing with both technical rigor and business context.

Good security isn’t theoretical.

It’s tested.

CVE-2020-2033, CVE-2020-2021, CVE-2020-2050, CVE-2026-0257, and now CVE-2026-0265

Authentication bypass, as in direct access to your internal networks over the Internet

This VPN architecture should be dead, get it off the Internet, it's a time bomb waiting to happen

Entra App Proxy continues to be one of the biggest hidden gems of Entra P1

For over a decade, we've been able to stop exposing risky apps to the Internet by routing through agents with outbound connections to Azure

I don't care what vendor you use, just get it off the Internet

A good primer on reasoning for IaC for all the things, even outside of infrastructure

The one big caveat is, of course, the learning curve involved and the resulting increase in level of skill required for new hires

@HackingDave @brandonajames I mean astronomers estimate that there are over 100 Billion planets in the Milky Way galaxy alone, and there are billions of galaxies.

Of course there are other forms of intelligent life out there. For us to think otherwise is just pure arrogance.

When you bring an idea to someone, and the only thing they can do is talk about why it’s exhausting, hard, or can’t do it…just know if you’re that kind of person…you’re the worst.

There is a difference between poking holes in an approach for someone to help vs. criticize.

Man there is zero question in my mind that Miami drivers are by far and away the worst drivers I’ve ever seen. Almost every single morning there is some dumbass wreck on I-95.

Someone needs to go tell @Apple that their speech recognition has gone into the garbage can. It’s gotten to the point for me where it’s almost unusable.

Anyone else notice this trend?

I mainly use it for speech to text.

@bettersafetynet @TimMedin LOL. I live in Florida now - I will say that there are times where I am outside for a bit and the 30+ degree swing from outside to inside leaves you feeling chilly for a bit, but that quickly passes. Give me all the AC

@realfrugalmogul @AdultingIsEasy Just part of life. Being afraid of the inevitable is just giving yourself anxiety. Best way to not be afraid of death…is to live life everyday to its fullest. Regret nothing. Love deep.
