Next up, we're honored to share this eye-opening conversation thanks to our friends at BLACKCLOAK 🙏

Chris and I went pretty deep in a topic that is really dear to me: the fast-growing overlap between physical and cyber threats, and why hashtag#AI is making attacks faster, more targeted, and more personal than ever. A MUST LISTEN! 🤔

From boardroom to living room ... A compromised personal device at home can cause just as much damage as a breached server at work.

That's why our latest episode tackles the often-missed layer of corporate security—protecting executives and their families outside the office. Chris Pierson joins Marco Ciappelli to explain how combining hashtag#technology, hashtag#privacy safeguards, and concierge-level service creates an always-on shield for high-profile leaders.

On Free Comic Book Day I picked up the first issue of Black Cloak, having noticed it was written by Kelly Thompson. I’ve enjoyed her other comics, so decided to give this one a shot.

It’s a fun noir and urban fantasy, and this oversized first issue packs in some world building that won me over. I was very distracted by the inking of the art by Meredith McClaren, and the very thick lines really took me out of things. I might return to read the rest of the first collected volume to see if I can get back into the story, but I was left underwhelmed when I was hoping for an ongoing series I could commit to.

My #comics have arrived, that's my weekend sorted 😀 thank you TheBigBang_

I am really enjoying #BlackCloak it has a Shadowrun type feel, is a police procedural and a very relaxing art style.

Finally got #GoldenRage and #Crone, got to get more bad ass older women fiction.
