*Today is going well... for audit day*

Audit panel with piggyback questions:

@nCrazed @gayint you think I’d disappoint you like that?

Up your CTI game by knowing the correct threat actor names for executive briefings.

Security isn’t about being right, it’s about being accurate, after all:

@afb you’ve seen an axolotl in person?! Jealous.

@Viss @catsalad can we get some flairs on mastodon?

“I was in the UK when Nonce Princedrew was arrested?”

They’ve arrested the nonce. I can’t stop laughing.

On his fucking birthday.

Important stuff. Take note.

I will exhaust every last one of these SATA SSDs before I pay a penny more per gigabyte than I would have 2 years ago.

I have 384TB of ECC DDR4 across two blades with 4 CPUs for a combined core count of 96.

It powers a fully populated 192 disk solid state SAN.

I was told it was old and in need of replacing, but apparently now it’s worth more than the GDP of the UK.

Can’t afford to run it (or hear my thoughts when in the vicinity)… but I can sit atop it like a fucking dragon.

And I will.

This is still bothering me.

I’d you’re in a position where you need to have your identity protected, don’t agree to being recorded with no precautions.

Do it the old way. Use an actor, wear a mask, use creative lighting.

AI is even eroding established practice here.

The Lucy Letby Netflix doc using the worst, bargain basement AI to hide people’s identities insults my eyes.

Moreover, we now know fully visible footage exists with no attempt to protect the individual.

Can’t see this going wrong in the future.

If you have this bright idea. Don’t.

Reckless and idiotic.

A timely reminder that if you have an iPhone (8+) and press the power button and either volume key (think: just squeeze your phone tightly) for a couple of seconds, the phone will vibrate in an unfamiliar way, STOP holding the buttons NOW.

It will force you to input the PIN to continue using the phone.

*CAUTION* continuing to hold WILL call emergency services.

From this screen you can also leave it locked or power it off, or manually call emergency services, depending on your situation and time available to you.
