I've been in and out of information security professionally, but somehow always have related projects. Mainly working with zeek and network level detection at the moment. SDR, cycling, and climbing enthusiast.

I boost a lot. Topics range far and wide from security and "the cybers" and may include politics, food, humor, science, law, nature, art, and other sundry unsavories. I occasionally post my own projects and thoughts.

My home internet went out for 48 hours, which mean this server went down as well. Longest downtime I've had since 2014 and just a few months after Google Fiber got bought out by a private equity firm.

And my latest weekly cyber newsletter is now out, looking at: GitHub's hack, CISA exposed government cloud keys, EU authorities seized a VPN server, Google published exploit code for an unfixed Chromium bug, wrench attacks are on the rise, an SMS blaster at Eurovision(?!), and much more.

Thanks so much for reading; it really means the world to me.

"17 Americans aboard MV Hondius will be flown to the U.S. — with a first stop in Nebraska, home of the highly specialized National Quarantine Unit.

The CDC is not considering this a quarantine, but rather a brief visit to monitor their health.
