Hey @Siemens... Would you please do us a favor? We would like you do some phishing training for your employees, so we don't have spend time keep reporting to your cert/sec people that "high & higher in the chain" people at your company getting phished? It's boring... Thank you!
Science: Here when the next eclipse is. Here's a bunch of new medicine that will save lives. Here's new technology that will make everyone's lives better. People: Yay. Science: Anthropogenic climate change is real. People: Lies!!!
Is the “millennials are killing big brands” thing going to extend to infosec once millennials become the buyers on enterprise security teams? It’s be amazing if infosec tool buying starts being about quality vs. brand-name or which vendor took you to the sportsball game
If you have Linux servers, enabled auditd. Yes, it logs a LOT. But you see a lot too. You don't have to send full logs from every server to the SIEM to make gains. Even if you just have a process grep through the logs daily (or hourly) for badness, you'll be far more secure.
/Thread: Microsoft does it again. Breaks paid users privacy and security. Anomalous CPU utilization on Windows build node caused by ads. Things like these is why most Linux and macOS/*BSD user never return to Windows/WSL2.
Ims00ry / ch4x0 ransomware's note says "My friend. I want to start my own business, but i have no money." 👏👏👏 What one does if he wants to starts a biz, but has no $$$? Of course, go & ransom people! What else to do, right? 😂 Filemarker: "---shlangan AES-256---" @demonslay335
This is how artificial intelligence can help save our planet and humanity from climate change. trib.al/IX9pF7i
A new analysis of the prisoner’s dilemma finds that one can learn to profit at the other’s expense—and the victim will cooperate. trib.al/gOKdZYB

How Cells Pack Tangled DNA Into Neat Chromosomes | Quanta Magazine
For the first time, researchers see how proteins grab loops of DNA and bundle them for cell division. The discovery also hints at how the genome folds to regulate gene expression.
ICYMI: Some mutant forms of proteins linked to neurodegenerative disorders and cancer don’t liquefy inside cells as they should: “Instead of forming nice drops, they form very strange hedgehog structures.” buff.ly/2DYjtxu
Against all expectations, this researcher has shown that a two-dimensional universe could support both gravity and the kind of complexity that life requires. trib.al/nmgSBMG
ICYMI: To solve problems that involve finding the best solutions among nearly infinite options, computer scientists are looking to evolutionary biology for inspiration. buff.ly/2E7WHmW
This AI was able to correctly identify manipulated images 99% of the time, compared to a 53% success rate for humans. trib.al/zMfA0Hd
ICYMI: The effects of genes are so intertwined, it’s almost impossible to delete more than one without hurting a cell’s fitness in unforeseen ways. buff.ly/2HcpXqu
A theoretical cosmologist with a knack for narrative, Valeria Pettorino, is aiming to apply the swath of data flooding her field to resolve the plot holes in our story of the cosmos. quantamagazine.org/cosmologist-va…
ICYMI: Enhanced computing power and stand-in simulations have open the door to a provocative possibility within the world of physics: mathematical modeling may soon be obsolete. buff.ly/2Paas5X
From the archives: The biological world is computational at its core, argues computer scientist Leslie Valiant. His “ecorithm” approach uses computational concepts to explore fundamental mysteries of evolution and the mind. quantamagazine.org/the-hidden-alg…
