Decent year for #birding. Wish I would have gotten out more locally instead of doing trips.
Goals next year include: more time for local outings, Magee Marsh in the spring (finally), and either Puerto Rico or Dominican Republic at some point.
An exciting year is about to end in which cyber security experts have reported more than 250,000 malware sites to URLhaus 🪲 and shared over 160,000 IOCs on ThreatFox 🦊
We have processed 7,844,382 malware samples 📄, conducted 41,847,925 YARA scans on YARAify 🔍 and generated almost 5 Petabyte of network traffic 👀
Our heros of the year (top contributors) have been:
👉 URLhaus: 🥇geenensp 🥈lrz_urlhaus
👉 ThreatFox: 🥇Gi7w0rm 🥈 drb_ra
👉 MalwareBazaar: 🥇andretavare5 🥈 zbetcheckin
👉 YARAify: 🥇 Casperinous 🥈 0xThiebaut
Keep up the great work! 💪

My favorite #birding experience of 2023 was birding the Pamao of #ecuador. The Paramo which is the alpine tundra in the #andes. It was full of beautiful birds in mutued but spectacular colors, all filling ecological niches in this lovely place.
Just a friendly reminder that I am still looking for my next role 🔍 FT or project/contract
I'm in the SANS CTI class this week to add to my existing arsenal of knowledge and experience. 🧠
If your org could use the services of an InfoSecSherpa 
LMK!
I will be speaking at RSA, if anyone wants to meet-up there. 👋
RT for reach, if you don't mind. 🙏Thanks!
Im not a #herpetologist nor do I play one on tv. I find these creatures to be delightful though. These were all species seen in #Jamaica in the last week or so. I THINK they are different kinds of #anoles but I am not sure. Any insight #herpetology friends?
As much as I love the #birding community and I have been able to meet such a beautiful group of people while pursuing my passion, some hardcore birders can be the apex of horrible.
I ran into a group of birders where one person straight up told me I wasnt “dressed like a birder” and they were surprised I was birding?!? Apparently bird watchers cant wear leggings and Birkenstocks? Half an hour later their guide was really firm in saying I didnt see a bird that I saw and I had to offer to grab the photos for proof.
I’ve been doing this for a while and I got it a lot worse a decade ago when I started birding but people - PLEASE! If you love birding its important to be a good ambassador for our hobby. This type of behavior can turn people off for good, despite the fact that it can make people feel like shit.
