FABRIC FACE MASKS: BETWEEN FASHION AND SAFETY
#Thread

As the confirmed cases of #COVID19 infection begin to rise, and with the adoption of fabric face masks across the different states of the nation, we have since seen an upsurge in the production of fabric face masks.

Women classify romance as Breakfast in bed, opening up the car door, fixing her shoes buckles, giving her morning and night kisses. Yes it's not bad but it goes beyond all that.

I once had that idea of a romantic man. And it's normal for a woman to categorize such as romance because of the emotions we carry.

But as I grew in age, I realised that the sacrifices a man gives, the efforts and extra miles he goes to just even put food on the table is ROMANCE.

I remember my hubby being so angry with me one time and in the heat of that misunderstanding, my man applied for an admission in £uros for me. That is ROMANCE IN THE HIGHEST ORDER OF LIFE. I saw the mail,I smiled and in my heart I just said a prayer for him.

May God bless our men. An appreciative woman will be appreciative of her man anyway he. shows up for her.

A man who doesn't buy you flowers, but can hold down his job just to stay with you on your sick bed is a ROMANTIC MAN.

Most women want to feel the butterflies which is not bad.
But the sacrifices he gives are the greatest of all.

Are you preparing for an interview? Here are a few things that can make a real difference:

Take time to research the company, understand what they do, the problems they solve, and the industry they operate in. Speaking with context always stands out more than generic answers.

Structure your responses (Scenario based) using the STAR technique (Situation, Task, Action, Result). Be ready to demonstrate how you’ve applied your skills, whether in risk assessment, compliance monitoring, or policy development, and the impact you delivered.

Avoid one-line answers. Use brief, practical examples to show how you think, solve problems, and collaborate with others.

Be clear about your value. Employers want to know not just what you’ve done, but how your experience can contribute to their goals.

Prepare for common questions like:
Tell me about yourself.
Why should we hire you?
How do you prioritize tasks?
Tell me about a challenge you faced.

Finally, remember, interviews go both ways. Ask thoughtful questions about the role, team, and growth opportunities. Good preparation builds confidence, and it helps you show up at your best. Good luck ✨

Hello Cyber friends,

In 2009, I fell victim to a phishing attack. I was pressured by a sense of urgency and played right into the attacker’s hands. I lost everything in my account and learned my first Cybersecurity lesson the hard way.

In 2026, the threats are more sophisticated, but so is our awareness. Don’t let urgency override your judgment. Think before you click!!!

[Victor Akinode @VictorAkinode]

Not all cyber threats type, some of them talk. What if your security system could hear deception?

Hello Cyber friends, let me put you on to something interesting: “Velma” by @modulate_ai , a voice-native, one of it's kind Ensemble Listening Model - that is changing how we think about verification.

Velma doesn’t just confirm identity, it listens for intent.

When a caller sounds coerced

When an attacker is mimicking a real user

When urgency is being weaponized to force access

When behavior suddenly doesn’t match the norm

This is powerful, especially in moments like:

Help desk password resets

Privileged access requests

Customer account recovery

High-risk financial approvals

Remote identity verification, and so many more!

Because let’s be honest, most attacks today don’t just break systems, they manipulate people.

Now imagine combining:

Behavioral signals + Identity data + Device posture + Risk scoring

That right there is adaptive intelligence.

And it doesn’t stop there. Voice-native analysis can:

Detect social engineering earlier

Flag insider risk through behavioral shifts

Expose fraud attempts like account takeovers and impersonation

Add a new layer of real-time telemetry to security operations

We’re entering a phase where how something is said matters just as much as what is said.

Curious how this actually works in real scenarios? You might want to take a closer look at Velma.

Because your next breach might not start with a code but an actual conversation.

STOP missing the signals that matter. Check out Velma here: https://t.co/MxtUCwTu9z

@GbengaWemimo Happy birthday sir. Your years are preserved.

@segoslavia Hahaha.

Unreal people. I saw one too recently in Surulere, Lagos. I think 3.5mill per annum and requires 2years rent minus the SC. Working class occupants only. Lol.

Most people trying to break into SOC are following outdated advice. Here is the actual SOC Analyst roadmap that works in 2026.

Phase 1: Build your foundation first
Networking basics, Linux command line, TCP/IP, OSI model. You cannot defend what you do not understand. This is non-negotiable.

Phase 2: Get one certification
CompTIA Security+ or ISC2 CC (free). Not five. One. Get it, then move.

Phase 3: Learn the tools SOC teams actually use
Splunk, Wireshark, Nmap, Elastic SIEM. Employers are not hiring people who know about these tools. They are hiring people who have used them.

Phase 4: Get hands-on every single day
TryHackMe SOC Level 1 path. HackTheBox. Build a home lab. Do CTFs. Your lab time is your work experience until you have real work experience.

Phase 5: Build in public and apply
Document everything on GitHub and LinkedIn. Cold outreach to SOC managers directly. Apply to internships. One SOC internship is worth more than ten certifications on your CV.

The average SOC Analyst earns $103,000. There are 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity roles globally. The opportunity is not the problem. The roadmap is.
