27+ year information security “professional”.

I like non-alcoholic #beer, #gardening and yardwork, playing guitar, and reading #books (mystery, thriller, suspense, #scifi, fantasy, astrophysics, and cosmology).

Stage IIIB #ColorectalCancer survivor.

I'm a middle-aged, middle class Christian, husband, dad, doggy-daddy, and friend. I’m supporter of #LGBTQIA rights, a #BlackLivesMatter advocate, a believer in #TransRights and proponent of equality. I support #Ukraine.

#Aflac seems to be dealing with a cyberattack.

They've "identified suspicious activity on its network in the U.S. that may impact Social Security numbers and other personal information."

Furthermore, the company is "in the early stages of a review of the incident, and so far is unable to determine the total number of affected individuals."

For those who haven't given up completely on #Firefox, version 140 comes out next Tuesday, 24 June.

A couple of interesting changes; first, all the Pocket integration will be removed...  

But also, custom search engines will now be fully supported. That seems good.

I found an interesting Microsoft Recall issue with the latest version - Recall is enabled on my PC, but the tray icon (bottom right) saying it is running is missing.

Edit: after a reboot, it's back. I'll keep an eye on it. After the latest Windows Update the UI wasn't visible, but it was still recording.
