@secureideas @scottwright @agent0x0 There’s a raw, unfiltered banter you guys share—you in particular, Kevin—that’s warm, engaging, and refreshing. Often we need to hear those things that polite society discourages us from saying. I’m here for it.


 and as a CISO myself, your 31 Oct. episode is killing it (listening now)!

@scottwright @agent0x0 @secureideas Wow, Scott! This is one I hadn’t heard of. I just listened to the most recent (Nov. 7) episode. Really great! I love the conversation format and have already subscribed. Can’t wait to hear more. Thanks for highlighting this for me. Cheers!
@da_667 @jerry That was my guess but I hadn’t noticed the pattern of which instance it was. I prob don’t need more space to ramble 
 but I know where I’ll move if I decide to. Thanks for clearing that up!
@jerry @hacks4pancakes @da_667 I love that for you! It’s a crazy wonderful thing you’ve built here, and this frequent-visitor-from-another-instance is grateful for it, too!
@da_667 Dropped you a follow because I like what I think you’ll add to my InfoSec feed, and you sound like a smartass 
 which I appreciate a bit of as well. Cheers! Also, how in the hell are you (and others) able to post such a long intro when I seem to be stopped at 500 characters?
Humans continue to be the weakest link in your cyber defense arsenal. Constant training and awareness is essential! #mrobvious #securityawareness #infosec #phishing
@schlink @timhaines I think this is good! It’s a difficult thing to convey to the uninitiated, and I think you’re doing a great service to create this. Nice job!
@timhaines @schlink Right? That’s my question as well. I don’t think the added protection has as much to do with the U2F ensuring you’re at the correct URL (though password managers are a big help with this). Rather, I see the “unphishability” of U2F as due to the fact that no session token can be created/retained. Since U2F can be passwordless, and must be invoked for each and every authentication, login literally cannot occur without having the U2F key.
@stringlytyped I can imagine it may seem like no one but you suffers from that decision. But if it means anything at all, this stranger admires you for the decision. Hopefully you avoided a toxic work environment. Best of luck!
@unregistered436 Oh! Cool idea! Thanks for the tip
