The release date for my book moved up! While I'm weighing in for my Muay Thai fight this weekend, Practical Detection Engineering will be dropping on Amazon.

DM me here or on LinkedIn and let me know what you think! Thanks in advance for all the support :)

Last night my co-authors and I turned in the final chapter's first draft for our book, Practical Detection Engineering: A hands-on guide to planning, developing, and validating threat detections. Still got a few rounds of technical reviews and copy edits but definitely a big milestone for us.

When performing competitor analysis we found that despite the numerous amazing blog posts from industry experts, there wasn't a complete book focused solely on detection engineering, so hopefully we can fill that gap for the field! The book is scheduled to release in early August and is available for pre-order on Amazon now:
https://www.amazon.com/Practical-Detection-Engineering-Confidently-detections/dp/1801076715

If you have a Packt subscription, it'll be in the eBook library too.

Thanks in advance for anyone who decides to invest in our work and check it out!

Still singing the praises of Arc browser lol. If you want to be converted, got 5 more referral codes here. I think their Windows version is coming by the end of year, macOS for now. Give it a week of use to get used to a differently-designed browser.

Wouldn’t usually share a fundraiser related to personal stuff on Mastadon, but it’s for a good cause so passing along. In order to satisfy some visa requirements my boyfriend has to go back and stay in Brazil for a little while. He’ll also be working towards his green card which is not cheap esp while working with an immigration lawyer. He’s a hard worker and has worked hard to save up the money but his friends organized a gofundme to take a tiny bit of the burden off of him so he doesn’t have to fully empty his saving account for getting back to Brazil, paperwork fees, lawyers, etc.

I’m constantly in awe of how he overcomes his paraplegia and faces everyday with positivity. Now he’s got another challenge ahead navigating our screwed up immigration system and want to support him however I can.

Alternatively if you ever need a website designer, graphic designer, social media content creator, videographer, etc let me know and I can get you connected! He’s worth the cost, I can assure it.
