@LisaForteUK @UK_Daniel_Card If they can fake a hotspot that actually gets me on to the Internet on a train, I might take my chances...

@Scientits Season 2 will not disappoint. The Christmas episode will test your stamina (unless you come from a large family)

Please folks can you help me get their attention this has upset me

I'm being told this can only be E5 licensing if vinegar costs extra and tartar sauce is technically included, but "on the roadmap" for 2024.

Over the last few months, I’ve been working on a little project with the ABC here in Australia to help people visualise their exposure in data breaches. This has just gone live today and I reckon they’ve done an amazing job, check it out: https://t.co/K0QXip1Je2

#killnet collective has tragered eurocontrol, at posting the website is down.

Arguably this is the most significant killnet DDoS attack as it impacts all countries in #Europe achieving their main objective

who has the most exchange servers exposed to the web?

@LisaForteUK @Jake_MooreUK @Google @SeanWrightSec @PhilipIngMBE This is really useful at defining the core requirements of AI Chatbots - great writeup. The hallucinations are concerning though, as if they don’t believe you when you say “nope, try again”.

@Jake_MooreUK @SmashinSecurity Same for Android as well.

[Richard Meeus @rmeeus]

@Jake_MooreUK I think @SmashinSecurity covered this recently. It involves an interaction/conversation that gets the phone to restart and then the user has to enter their passcode, even if biometrics is enabled. Then shoulder surf and bingo

@LisaForteUK Today's edition of "where is Lisa for her java install?" is trickier than normal...

@LisaForteUK Grab my *hard copy* of the IR plan. Otherwise, options are pointless as I won't have access...

[Richard Meeus @rmeeus]

@LisaForteUK @johnbarker78 Have heard of ransomware scenarios where first step was to buy an axe to open the door...

[Richard Meeus @rmeeus]

@LisaForteUK Agreed, more the opportunistic than the dedicated. Of course, everyone else's information will be a lot easier to track now, which could be a motivator (wink), but to dress it up as child safety sounds more like a simpsons episode.

The interesting dilemma with Twitter and 2FA is that well over 95% of users don’t use it AT ALL. So the fuss over the small percentage that do use SMS and not auth apps may be overrated. Hopefully the noise generated will make some of the 95% at least look into auth apps.
