I have been spending more time at https://t.co/9p7Dbrnh0i lately. I still check into here, but mentally Bluesky has been better for me.

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@ConsultingCso I’m over there as well. Clicking the link in my bio should redirect you to my profile, but otherwise the domain is my handle.

@techspence Used a different product to block ads, and when we did it we had an increase of blocks over 2000%

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@techspence My issue with idea setups are that they may not be attainable to a number of people. In my opinion please put MFA on at least, only allow approved access and disable any VPN accounts that are not used, don’t let management interface be internet facing if possible.

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@techspence Not that I would ever use recall, but this would be one good feature of it. Document all changes I made in the past amount of time. Verify it somehow.

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@techspence Spent some time tuning a tool this week. Had a massive success in blocking some of the crud on the internet

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@GeneralGray I think you are most certainly correct. I just find it funny cause what does gambling have to do with the product.

It is however a bit annoying as now the name is everywhere, and not everyone find it funny like me. I’d hate to see this all the time if you do not want to see it

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

A couple things here.

First time? I have been microwaving these for the past 20 years.

Stake? This one is funny to me. Most likely from the user for some reason. However I can’t get it out of my heading needing to place a bet on how my stomach will feel after eating this.

If I am reading this CoD ban stuff correctly I am dumbfounded. I know an anti cheat must be hard to make, and I would not know where to start. However it has to been very traceable and for it to go on for so long is what confuses me.

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@techspence @cyberthreatpov @SecurIT360 Podcasts are initially what led me to finding InfoSec folks on social media which has in turned led me to more podcasts. Plus they help me get some perspectives or idea on things.

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

It might be the coffee, but I got a feeling in my gut that today will be interesting

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@techspence Makes we wonder if some workplaces allow games to be played on the fleet. I have never worked where that would have been possible unless you were a rouge sysadmin.

With an attack surface so big there is so much there, and so many different ways to go.

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@techspence Yeah but I think that those actually are helpful and needed due to the cheats. Granted I don’t play much PC games currently and mostly console. However they could be a neat delivery method right into the kernel.

Being a consumer I wonder what I could do to help as well

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@Laughing_Mantis Video games are a very big reason I’m in IT and my passion is security. I also love reading about how passionate you are for video games. Do you have any tips on what someone can look into for learning or what they can do to help?

@EricaZelic I might shoot myself in the foot here, but I think that is the Microsoft recommendation. The places I worked are slow to adopting the cloud, and they are small business.

In large orgs I could see that IT managing the groups would be a pain.

[Matt Hoff @TheH0FF3R]

@EricaZelic @joaompinto4 @infosecspy In your opinion would you advise people to not allow anyone to create Teams?

In every environment I have worked in IT has always been the ones that have been able to create Teams. It can slow things down, but we don’t get random Teams or Sites showing up.
