I am the Alpha and the Omega.

[Jon L. Noble🇬🇧 @CheckCanopy]

It’s hard to believe it’s already been 100 days since I received my Neuralink N1 implant. Looking back, the whole journey feels like science fiction that somehow became my everyday reality.

The surgery on Day 0 was surprisingly easy. A quick general anaesthetic, a small incision, and the robotic system did the rest — precisely placing the 1,024 ultra-thin threads into my motor cortex. I woke up alert and in good spirits and went home the next afternoon. By Day 3 I was feeling a lot better, and by Day 7 the little scar was already starting to fade. Recovery was genuinely minimal; I felt sharper and more positive than I had been in years after the BCI was turned on.

The real fun started in Week 2 when we paired the implant with my brand-new Apple MacBook (my very first Mac). The @neuralink engineers walked me through calibration sessions, and within a couple of minutes I was moving the cursor just by thinking. At first it felt like trying to remember a dream, but by Week 3 it was second nature. Scrolling, clicking, typing — all mind-controlled. The Mac integration was buttery smooth; I went from total Mac newbie to power-user faster than I ever expected.

By Day 80 I was ready for the big leagues. That’s when I fired up @Warcraft of Warcraft for the first time with pure thought control. The first raid felt clunky, but once my brain and the BCI synced, it was pure magic. I’m now raiding, and exploring Azeroth hands-free at full speed — no mouse, no keyboard, just intention. It’s honestly brilliant. The freedom is addictive.

The social-media side has been just as surprising. Every update I’ve shared has been met with genuine excitement rather than scepticism. Thousands of messages from people with disabilities, gamers, students, and scientists — all asking real questions about the tech and what it could mean for the future. The positivity has been overwhelming and incredibly motivating.

100 days in and I already can’t imagine life without it. The N1 didn’t just give me a new way to use a computer — it gave me a new way to live. Can’t wait to see what the next 100 days bring.

Thank you all so much for your support and I will keep you all updated as we continue this journey together.

RIP Rob Grant. Red Dwarf wouldn't have been the legend that it is without your contribution. Sad day. ❤️

I just released MFTool, an NTFS parser that builds an in-memory map of a volume, allowing you to:
- Read any file without opening a handle
- Get the contents of locked/deleted files (registry hives, pagefile.sys, etc)
- Perform fast, in-memory searches across the entire disk

CVE-2025-24054 was patched in Microsoft’s March 11 update, but just over a week later, threat actors began exploiting this NTLM Hash Disclosure Spoofing vulnerability in the wild.
Stay patched. 🔒

Recently I was targeted by an extremely sophisticated phishing attack, and I want to highlight it here. It exploits a vulnerability in Google's infrastructure, and given their refusal to fix it, we're likely to see it a lot more. Here's the email I got:

Hmmm. The adverts on YouTube videos are now getting so long that they have their own adverts splitting them up.

I just had an long unskippable advert split by another shorter advert. 😅

Super excited to be speaking alongside @johnnyspandex at #SANSHackFest!
Join us in Hollywood where we will share our latest research into some very popular VPN clients and demonstrate remote root/SYSTEM RCE exploits! 🌮💥

After a great summer of family fun, it's time to get some tasty sweet sweet root... and right now I am very hungry.

Super excited about joining a new team of heros today. Let's rock!

Thanks to @cube0x0 works (& the damned RpcBindingSetObject function on Windows🤬), a new #mimikatz 🥝release using MS-PAR protocol instead of MS-RPRN

Now, #printnightmare / CVE-2021-34527 *everywhere*, not only domain controller: servers & workstations

This would actually be an amazingly effective way to teach people how computers work and what computer programming is.

Today was my last work day for a while. Thanks to everyone who's been part of the adventure over the years. Good luck to the remainder of the pentest team... Happy rooting! 👍🏼
I've now got a new adventure ahead of me, but first a summer of #RedTeamFit to get through. 🥳💪🏼😎

Is it possible for us to work together to create a Twitter poll with zero votes?

[Beechman @Ubermonstro]

What a fun podcast. One of @NCCGroupplc Full Spectrum Attack Simulation (FSAS) team specialists chatting about Pentest, Red Teaming and Physical Breach scenarios.

Well worth a listen, definitely made my day on a commute to a client site this morning. 👍

@code0x13 @zeropointsecltd It's fair to say that the course itself tops up an infrastructure pentester's skillset/toolcraft to get more familiar with the fun red team tradecraft.

But getting all the flags in the final exam, needs good familiarity with both your red team toolset and the course material. 😅

[Beechman @Ubermonstro]

The @zeropointsecltd Certified Red Team Operator exam is a fun way to spend a weekend. 👍

Different to RastaLabs (which is also great and complimentary to this exam).

Also, thank you to my awesome wife for letting me successfully hunt down that last flag on Valentine's Day. ♥️
