This week I've been:

✅ Finalising a strategic partnership with a vulnerability assessment company
✅ Creating video-based security training that people actually want to watch
✅ Conducting Cyber Essentials assessments (yes, they still catch critical gaps!)
✅ Providing technical leadership to growing companies
✅ Deep-diving into AWS security best practices

Cybersecurity isn't just about the latest tools or threats – it's about building security into the fabric of how organisations operate.

The manufacturing client who was eager to learn despite having basic gaps impressed me more than the financial services firm with all the right tools but inconsistent processes.

Security culture > Security technology. Every time.

Three things that stood out this week:

🎯 Cyber Essentials still matters – Even "basic" frameworks catch significant vulnerabilities when properly implemented
🎥 Training works when it's human – Scenario-based learning beats policy recitation every single time
☁️ "Security as code" is the future – Treating security configurations with the same rigor as application code

The variety in this field never stops amazing me. In five days I touched business development, content creation, regulatory compliance, technical consulting, and professional development. Each area informed the others in ways that wouldn't be possible in a more specialised role.

Question for my network: What's been the most surprising security challenge you've encountered recently? I'm always curious about the problems others are solving.

🎣 Social Engineering Cheatsheet: Understand the Human Attack Surface

Social engineering targets human behavior — not just systems. This cheat sheet outlines common tactics used in awareness training and authorized red team simulations.

🧠 Top Social Engineering Techniques (for educational use):

1. Phishing – Deceptive emails that trick users into clicking links or revealing credentials

2. Spear Phishing – Targeted emails with personalized content

3. Vishing – Voice-based phishing (e.g., fake IT support calls)

4. Smishing – Malicious SMS/text messages

5. Pretexting – Creating a fabricated scenario to gain trust

6. Baiting – Leaving infected USBs or tempting downloads

7. Tailgating – Gaining physical access by following authorized personnel

8. Quid Pro Quo – Offering something (e.g., IT help) in exchange for access

🔐 Defense Tips:
• Train employees with real-world scenarios
• Enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA)
• Validate requests before sharing info
• Encourage reporting of suspicious activity

🦩 Living the HIGH life in DOHA!

Fun fact: Qatar's Doha airport has a 23-foot tall teddy bear lamp that weighs 35 tons! Even a flamingo feels small next to that one 😅

Speaking of larger-than-life experiences - your girl just lived it up in a Qatar Airways First Class suite! Who knew a dancing flamingo could travel so fancy? Catching some Z's at 40,000 feet before bringing my security training (and dance moves) to Hyderabad!

Next stop: India 🇮🇳
Because even fancy flamingos have work to do!
