Another LastPass breach, through a 3rd party (Klue). They claim it’s only customer contact data (only!), and doesn’t include data in your vault (passwords,…). Sigh

“Through the Klue integration, an unauthorized party was able to gain access to certain data within the LastPass Salesforce CRM. That data included customer contact details, organizational and account information, and customer support case records. “

Leanpub Book LAUNCH 🚀 Someone Else's Debt: A Quantitative Framework for Cyber Diligence at Deal Speed by Yolonda Smith

A deal closes. Eighteen months later, the breach hits. Cyber risk that wasn't priced into the deal architecture becomes a cost the acquirer absorbs alone — sometimes in the billions.

If you are shocked that 'AI' can work out the security holes that allow it to obtain local superuser privileges from an unprivileged account, bear in mind that explicit instructions to agents have been published on the WWW, and no doubt scraped over and over into training models, since the end of 2025.

There is an awful lot of stuff like that Out There for models to ingest and enact.

I wrote about this exact thing as a hypothetical a few months back: https://www.... | Hacker News

I think that most people who work in computer security do not actually understand what #security should do.

Continuing my deep dive into a #cybernetic #ComputerSecurity program, I finally begin to talk about environments, adaptation, the feedback loop between the two, and complexity management.

I also mention Elinor Ostrom. If you work in security and don't know why I'd mention Ostrom, then you may well radically adjust your perspective about what you do after reading this.

This is the second entry in a series. If you haven't read the previous one, now might be a good time. If you're all caught up, then let's...

Security Through the Looking Glass

You know why I love computer security?

This is why.

A big corpo fuck you up? Fuck them back.

While other field is just staggering with "uh, we need to do abcdefg first to make right what is in front of us"

Context: Security researcher are now contacting NightmareEclipse, and willingly to drop Windows product zero days they found in the name of solidarity.
