Very interesting morning at #SophosMDRStadiumTour in Vancouver. Thanks for the invite @Sophos

A wise man once said to me, "process creation does not lie".
Turns out that's true for DFIR and developers blaming the firewall.
Sound familiar @eric_capuano?
Heading back to the office on a regular basis for the first time in 2 1/2 years.
Can confirm COVID-19 was in the closet making my clothes smaller. 😬
Patreon: Cuts security team.

Who knew Dream Theater is good music for threat hunting?
Dear Users - "NDA" documents don't come as html files. If you're not expecting an NDA, don't click on it.
Just saying. Le sigh.

The more I learn about #infosec, the more I realize the most important things one can do to secure an environment aren't sexy. They are mundane, they can be tedious, but they will underpin everything else you do.
Home from Black Hat. Had a great time, very fun and very interesting.
Things I learned in training:
1. Process creation doesn't lie.
2. If you're not sure what happened, refer to #1.

Landed my first role that is focused on cyber security.
If I can do it, you can too.

Thoughts chatting with my boss today:
I'm thinking financially motivated cyber attacks will increase as the situation because increasingly desperate for the average Russian.

I'd like to quote a friend I've never met.
"Those of us not under rocket fire are lucky ducks, indeed." Dave @Bittner, the Cyberwire Daily.
2/2: Also, saying something like "We helped Company X so we can help you. When Company X's business is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike mine tells me a bunch of not-good things about your prep skills. Takes that 0% even lower. -100%?

Dear Cybersecurity Vendor salespeople: If you email me out of the blue and I click the provided 'unsubscribe' link... and you contact me again... There is now a 0% chance that I will ever buy anything from your company.
Unsubscribe means stop. Just saying

All patched up for the holidays.
<Brand Redacted> Firewalls: Check
Windows: Check.
Linux: Check.
See you next year, folks. And remember: effective infosec is more about basics - like patching - than the sexy stuff.

"sucks to be a smaller organization"
- me.
Threat intel feeds from... well... I haven't found a vendor under $35k USD($43k CAD).
For a shop of 140 employees, that's not going to fly.
Any suggestions beyond free/open source?

Cyber Tip of the Day: If an app or website/service is asking for info, ask yourself why they need it, then go ask THEM what they'll do with it, and how long they store it.
If you don't pay for a product, you ARE the product.
