The stolen data from LastPass is actively being decrypted and exploited. People with secrets keys for crypto wallets & login data to online wallets are being plundered. If you had your secret keys in LastPass, move your funds now, changing your password does NOT help.

I love this blog post from @Northwave_Sec. I cover some of this in my ransomware recovery talk. Taking care of your people during ransomware (and other) IR is really important, I see a lot of burnout and resignations after a ransomware incident.

Yesterday we presented our research on the mental impact of ransomware attacks on people at victim orgs at #one2022. This topic deserves much more attention than it's getting, happy to see awareness rise. Blog at northwave-security.com/en/bl… , paper with stats will be published soon
Pretty cool blog post about how to deploy and test Azure Sentinel monitoring rules at scale!

These 'Beach Animals' were created by Theo Jansen as a fusion of art and engineering. The kinetic structures walk on their own and get all their energy from the wind.

I worry that the current belief/practise that the only way to get into pentesting is via certs is having a weirdly damaging side effect. 🧵

Any incident responder saying "DO NOT PAY A RANSOM" is hurting their customers. Paying (or not) should be a risk-informed business decision, pure and simple.

Het blijft verbazingwekkend dat Jan geen hypotheek krijgt waar hij €1000 euro p.m. voor zou moeten betalen, maar hij wel €1500 huur mag betalen aan huiseigenaar Kees.
Jan lost de hypotheek van Kees af, maar wordt niet in staat geacht zijn eigen hypotheek af te kunnen lossen.

While this may sound too simple, we've managed to escalate across domains on several occasions by accounts with blank passwords 🔥!
In this blog we describe how it works, and which popular spraying tools we've updated to support empty password spraying: northwave-security.com/abusi…

The sad thing is that if we hadn’t expanded NATO, Putin would have tirelessly devoted himself to world peace and the brotherhood of man.

Interesting to see how @moxie’s post changed the tenor of discussions on web3 (at least on my timeline).
The strongest proponents shifted from “it’s the solution” to “it could be with a lot more work”.
Also a lesson for us: Nothing beats doing the work & writing it up cogently.
This is quite useful
