"Penetration Test" is a crazy overloaded term. Important to start w/ discussion of goals and tradeoffs between testers and client team.

Thanks for the #BSidesSF Semgrep workshop @enncoded @LewisArdern @onefiftyman . You packed a *ton* into 2 hours. Really appreciate the work that went into it.


What can we say, twitter-driven development sometimes works :) netflix.com/.well-known/se… Ya'll are good folks. Keep it going!

Exciting news! @Apple joins the list of companies with a security.txt file. Now, we only need @netflix to complete the FAANG list. 🙌

Of the ~950 people I follow on twitter, some hacky profile scraping says that about 60 of those currently have a Mastodon link. So for me that's basically from ~0% to 15% exodus (or at least strongly hedging) in a *week*.


Hah, this makes me feel so much better about my small pile of aborted "I think I should write something about..." drafts.

Know how many blog posts I start writing but never finish? *HEAPS*! Sometimes the story just doesn't work out as expected, sometimes I calm down and change my mind, other times... I'm a busy guy 🤷‍♂️ Are there any here I really should finish?

I don’t think there’s a SOC2 rule against banking 50 pre-approved empty PRs for future use.

Chrome was delivered without any sprints at all. The team came in at 9 and left at 5 (figuratively, people actually kept their own ~8h schedules) every workday for a couple years like clockwork. No drama. No broken marriages, no broken families.

Sadly, there were divorces and broken families and bad things that came out of that. But I also learned that even at a 20,000-person company, you can get a team of 100 people to work like their lives depend on it.



Congrats to @Resourcely! Clear, exciting product vision at that critical touchpoint of developer velocity, security, and cloud resources. Very pleased to have joined this round, and looking forward to seeing where @travismcpeak and @0xshellrider take this idea.

Hello world! We're on a mission to make cloud security easier for users. See our funding announcement (techcrunch.com/2022/07/26/res…) and blog post (resourcely.io/post/introduci…) for more details. We're #Hiring!



Strong recommend for anyone thinking about sustainability, culture, and ultimately the humans in a security organization. @astha_singhal knows what she's talking about and delivers it so well. 🙌

This year I got the amazing opportunity to deliver the keynote at one of my favorite security conferences, @BSidesSF. You can now check out my talk on "Building Sustainable Security Programs" here: youtube.com/watch?v=-hWp_C…

Web timing attacks: super cool in principle, still super janky in practice. Seems like TimeTrial (github.com/dmayer/time_tr…) and Nanown (code.blindspotsecurity.com/trac/nanown/) still best tools, but really janky to get running & require a known-good case. Anyone got suggestions? Banging my head.

Strong recommend. Some great examples that improve both risk and user experience, and also give metrics that make the wins feel real.
