The wildest thing about the KnowBe4 "we accidentally hired a North Korean threat actor as an engineer" story is that the SOC immediately caught it, followed their instincts, and escalated immediately.

In post mortems for most serious incidents, there's an ignored alert.

Is that the most critical security vulnerability (in 2024) in LLM infrastructure ecosystem? Attackers can escape LLM chat to execute arbitrary code on the affected system. https://t.co/BFopaQ51mq

It's just so important to see things from a different angle.

So here is how an IT helpdesk experienced the #Crowdstrike outage. 🧵

Please, read this even if you no interest in IT or know nothing about it. It doesn't matter. It's about appreciation for those who keep us going.

Someone spent $20,000 to get a Jim Lee commission and then went for Bluey!!

My view on our role as cyber professionals today is this- we work on fixing the issue and bringing services back, reassuring the public not to panic and then, critically, learning some lessons about resilience, single points of failure, redundancy and supply chain management

[Jason O'Brien @JasonM_OBrien]

#ncsc24 interesting results from the AI usage survey at today's conference. I suspect the shadow AI usage is actually higher than reported.
