Reflexive security, accidental hacker, writer, mad scientist, spacecraft operator, polymath, inexplicably beloved by random wildlife. I probably know things you would prefer I didn't. Lapsed GWAPT, ADHD, EDS, red team. Anathea 6:1-4. Posts=mine, not employer's, not yours.

All references to black cats in anything of mine are referring to the beautiful creature in my profile pic, the other beautiful creature not in my profile pic, the one who wanders by expecting me to feed her, etc. I hadn't even heard of the APT group until I'd had the handles for a year!

Anyone happen to know if there was a breach or dump data showing up for Bezos-mart or Wallyworld in the last month or so?

(Asking for a situation on another platform.)

Contract cut.

Shocked EVERYONE.

One week before my birthday, no less.

Need a job NOW. Remote desperately needed, I know but it is for health reasons. (Also in the DC Metro region where a five mile commute takes 90min at best.)

Like. NOW.

Currently a pentester/red team, edging to purple. Prior exp in aerospace. Up for switching to blue team, interested in DFIR and Threat Hunting.

Or switching fields entirely.

Boosting this for Phil Brucato, of White Wolf/World of Darkness/Mage: the Ascension (among others) fame.

From Phil:

"My urban fantasy novel RED SHOES takes place in a town inspired in part by the three years I lived in Asheville, NC. Riverhaven resides near Asheville in that book, and so I will donate all proceeds from sales of RED SHOES from now until at least early next year to relief efforts for the people of Asheville.
Please spread the word.

At least I know what the term "eating pussy" actually means.

Do I know anyone at Meta who deals with accounts/security/account takeovers?

Not mine, favor for a friend.

Anyone else start humming BOC while running Balena, or am I having a particularly silly morning?

Also? I have decent risk analysis skills.

The times I have gone against my better judgement have ALWAYS resulted in bad things. Even when I did so on the recommendation or urging of someone else who allegedly had excellent ones.

I'd love to lobbycon at #Shmoocon2024 , but I have this thing about having seen too many of you posting lots of maskless pictures taken in public spaces and talking about lots of recent travel.

I like a fair number of you well enough, but no one not my kids is worth risking my life or last vestiges of health for.
