Joy is getting to write in a reference to both @ZooeyDeschanel and the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in a book about the programming language Rust. :-)

Interviewed by TechTarget about the most recent book. This is the result. https://t.co/6KgAHjy94T #securitytesting #infosec #testinglab

#10 coming to a major online bookseller near you shortly. Since I doubt it will be in stores. #infosec #testinglab #sekooriteeroolz

For my next feat, I will write a book on a programming language I barely know (Rust). Nothing like a challenge to put you to sleep in the morning.

Becoming a Certified Ethical Hacker course is now live on Udemy (well, not actually live, as in ... well, you know). Here's a coupon code for anyone interested in a discounted enrollment. https://t.co/ReH4x8N26p

[Ric Messier @securityprofric]

Okay, Cuckoo Sandbox install complete (for ISC2 course). Now what? After all the work, it's a little anti-climactic. #malwareanalysis #firstworldproblems #ethicalterrier

The great @sensiblecaptain is in Denver and I didn't even know (and as a result, won't be there)?? shame on me!
