Laser-based hardware attacks are only for nation-state actors with million-dollar labs. Right?
Wrong.
At BSides312, Larry Trowell and Sam Beaumont (PANTH13R) from NetSPI built affordable laser tools using an open-source microscope and consumer-grade lasers to detect hardware malware and supply chain chip swaps.
Hackers go pew pew.
May 16th. Chicago.

Most clients struggling with AI governance are struggling because they haven't fully defined their enterprise data governance requirements.

You can't code "people will use their judgment" into coherent AI governance, as much as you might want to.

Redid my website siliconshecky.com so it looked newer when I wrote new blogs. Damn if I ain't wrote shit. Damn if I can't come up with something to write. Opinion pieces are a dime a dozen and I want substance which is tough for me.
