One of the really great things about a lot of very easy vulnerabilities coming out in Enterprise appliances. Is that people assume that the hackers that have recently found them are the very first hackers to ever have found those vulnerabilities. This is an amazing amount of rationalization that allows people to continue using these products after they have patched them as if people attacking internal networks don't exist and hackers with ODay don't exist.

📢 My @NDSSSymposium keynote is up!

On how we lost the crypto wars, why surveillance advertising must be understood as the foundation of "AI", & why the tactics of the past won't serve us in defending privacy today.

Is climate change real ? Well when I first moved to Miami Beach it never flooded. I've lived in the same house for 20 years . Now it floods literally all the time (not always this badly but still). If there was no lightning I would take the kayak out on the street.

We need to have a bigger talk about why CISA got owned with Ivanti when it has such a poor recent security history - we should have been more proactive about removing it. This is one of those things Secure by Default should offer guidance on.

Why can't smoke detectors get replaced or augmented with olfactory systems attached to an LLM that has that as a model view? I want my thing to know when I burnt my pie vs an electrical fire is happening vs when I'm having a contractor drill my drywall to put in a cabinet.

This is absolutely insane - the CWE was not meant to hang liabilities (or any legal theory) on.

Patching is the thoughts and prayers of infosec, as ppl are finding out now for some reason. https://thenewstack.io/the-great-security-debate-is-patching-useless/

We should not be trawling for krill. I can't even believe this is a thing. Humans don't even like krill. Krill is the basis of the entire ecosystem in the Antarctic. This is kind of like monster nightmare level stuff.
