Splunk's #SURGe research team is now Cisco Foundation AI's SURGe security team, and I couldn't be more excited. We've been researching #AI's impact on #cybersecurity for years now, and how teams can leverage it to improve their operations. Now our team's extensive cybersecurity experience is paired with Foundation AI's world-class AI expertise. I'm really looking forward to what we can do together.

The EU wants to stop feeding your DNS queries to Silicon Valley.

DNS4EU is the European Commission’s attempt to build a sovereign DNS resolver infrastructure that doesn’t route all your web lookups through the likes of Google, or Cloudflare.

DNS4EU aims to bring DNS resolution under EU oversight and privacy rules.

So, if you want 🇪🇺-backed ad-blocking and child protection, you may want to give it a try.

Check out DNS4EU here: https://www.joindns4.eu/for-public

"Well, better get back to work. This code ain't gonna write itself."

Guess I have to stop using that one now. #AI
