I am a security advisor working mostly in GRC, I also work as an auditor. My academic background is electronics and my experience in IT infrastructure. I hold the typical professional certifications that are sought as "lettre de noblesse" in this field. My interest resides in expanding my understanding of technology. My aim is to engage with people in the hope we gain mutually and to achieve a positive outcome about protecting information and preserving privacy. Je vis en français et travaille en anglais.

I'm excited to announce our "Out-of-Band" series; these articles focus on the security risks of management devices like BMCs, serial servers, and IP-enabled KVMs. "Out-of-Band, Part 1: The new generation of IP KVMs and how to find them" is now live at:

In a private #Github organization, in a private repo filled with NDA code, Github decided that to automatically start reviewing that code using Copilot.

Mind you, Copilot is disabled for this organization.

Could we please just fucking not ?! Not even mentioning the fact that the Github organization didn't enabled this, there is no data policy to be found in sight. I have no clue what Copilot does with the data after it "reviewed" the code and I could potentially be breaking the signed NDA.

I bet my fiancée that this picture of our cats could get 10 billion boosts on Mastodon.

She said she doesn't believe me. She said there's only 13 million accounts on Mastodon. She said there aren't even 10 billion people on Earth. She said it concerns her that I struggle so hard to comprehend large numbers.

Let's prove her wrong everyone. Boost away and show her just how awesome the Mastodon community is.

It is frankly obnoxious that portal.office.com now redirects to a Copilot page with no direct link to Outlook, Word, etc. (you know, Office...).

Enormous long shot.
I lost my necklace today (Sunday June 15th 2025).
Probably somewhere in Brussels during the #IkTrekEenRodeLijn #RodeLijn manifestation.
It was a custom made present from my wife.
If anyone found this, or sees it posted as found somewhere, please contact me! 😢

Hey, cis dudes. I need you to show up as allies at trans #pride events this month. Don’t make a big deal out of it. Don’t expect to win awards for it. Don’t hit on people. Don’t make it about you. Just swell our numbers.

And stand between us and the cops and transphobes, please.

#boost welcome.

We’re proud to see CryptPad technology powering the new Online Vault in Murena Workspace, part of the /e/OS 3.0 release.

It brings end-to-end encrypted file storage and real-time collaboration right into your phone. A big step for privacy that stays easy to use.

Built in Europe. Open source.

Just the way we like it.

👏 Thanks to the Murena team for making strong encryption accessible.

You can get to Outlook under "Apps" - silly me for not immediately understanding the UI change.

@alexgabbz @malwarejake plenty of other tools out there that do that task just as well, if not better.

@malwarejake Microsoft board, maybe: "Look, we cannot get people to buy this thing, so lets just change everything to point to it so that we have numbers that make it look like people are using it. Who cares if it breaks years long workflows, documented processes, common practices, or everybody's guidances"

@malwarejake Hur Hur Hur... this change is having a hilarious impact where I work.

Our Internet Gateway provider has designated Copilot as AI, and our Internet Gateway settings are to restrict people from being able to browse to services marked as AI unless explicitly allowed.

So many support tickets coming in 🤣
I've told the team responsible for the IG to just allow Copilot on the default policy, but they're being adamant that they shouldn't allow it (I've no idea why...) despite us *giving* certain people Copilot licences.
