We are very grateful to the United States for all the support. I’m thankful to President Trump, Congress for their bipartisan support, and American people. Ukrainians have always appreciated this support, especially during these three years of full-scale invasion.

Security leaders should be as obsessed with the SOC as good manufacturing leaders are with their factories. Frontline analysts don't exist to support "higher" tiers, those tiers exist to support frontline analysts.

So many of the InfoSec people dunking on CrowdStrike's Super Bowl ad might be shocked to find out that the company they work for also has to market their products in order for them to earn a paycheck.

What in the world is going on with @Allegiant support right now? Their online chat has been down for days, phone number drops as busy, and when I try to call through the bookings line they hang up on me when I ask for help.


“my thinking on this particular topic” 😂 Dude, nobody cares. What a self-important turd.

I'm not suspended from the ceiling above a barrel of acid by a rope that burns a little faster every time I tweet, you concern-trolling ghouls. I've just lost any confidence I had that sharing my thinking on this particular topic continues to be useful, because I called it wrong.



People complain a lot about the sleep deprivation that comes with having kids. It’s a lie. The sleep deprivation fades. The real threat is washing dishes. Nothing in life prepares you for how many dishes you are going to wash.


If there is something worse than people making “lol sportsball” jokes during the super bowl, I don’t know what it is. We get it, you’re very interesting. Just let people enjoy things.

Oh man I almost forgot to hit the “boost defenses” button before I left for PTO. That was close.


Get me a Forrester analyst stat. I need to know which XDR vendor paid them to tell me that they can handle this Log4J vuln with machine learning.


Does anyone else remember their teachers in elementary/middle school telling them that every little thing was going to end up “on your permanent record” or is that just me?
