Before I go to bed, since I've been staring at both the justification and problem statements of my phd for hours now-- here is what I want to say plainly.
Cybersecurity has moved past the stage of interesting, and is now hanging on the edge of critical. We aren't talking about just firms that handle data, but everyone ranging from cow farms to hospitals and even casinos are now in scope with ransomware at play. That genie is out of the bottle, and it won't go back in.
This problem is compounded by an utter lack of formalism and studies into what works and why. Hell, we barely even have formal studies available into how to test... with most near all advanced studies being focused on binary analysis and reverse engineering. Security testers are getting taught the same stuff that was created lit. in 2012 and hasn't been updated since. Some of our most popular tools for testing were created in 2006, with many not being frequently updated since. We gotta grow up, and we gotta grow up fast.

All joking aside: how did my iPhone go from being able to hold a charge for 2 days ➡️ barely able to keep a charge for 12 hours within the span of 1 week— with no change in usage, background app activity, or settings. And no reported change in the health of my phone's battery?

The Costs of War Project is a team of 35 scholars, legal experts, human rights practitioners, and physicians, which began its work in 2011. We use research and a public website to facilitate debate about the costs of the post-9/11 wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
Last month, Fossil Free Media’s Stop The Oil Profiteering campaign launched a series of billboards calling out Big Oil for its role in fueling climate-change-induced extreme heat that has plagued the country and claimed more than a hundred lives this summer. The billboard features a weather report with record-high temperatures and reads “Brought to You by Big Oil.”
