Some are taking issue Shift Left and the common wisdom that the cost of fixing bugs after release is 100x the cost of fixing during development. I looked into the argument and past research. darkreading.com/application-…

I talked with Alan for pretty much my nearly 25 years covering information security and cybersecurity. He was always a strong proponent of rational cybersecurity policies and an advocate of educating everyone. You will be missed. Rest in peace.
Good discussion with @cigitalgem and Adversa's Eugene Neelou on AI/ML threat risks. darkreading.com/vulnerabilit…

Mark Dowd’s Australian firm Azimuth was on the top of everyone’s guess list as the secret company that helped the FBI unlock the San Bernardino iPhone in 2016, but no one could ever confirm it. Now @nakashimae has finally done that. Great job, Ellen. washingtonpost.com/technolog…
Good research and data collection by the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab (@DFRLab ) in creating a massive timeline on the spread of (m/d)isinformation through the 'Stop the Steal' campaign and ending at the Capitol riot. justsecurity.org/74622/stopt…

The statement in the survey: "In fact, one in five has been notified that their personal information has been exposed as the result of a data breach, with a new account opened in 22 percent of these cases."
So, I would argue 22% of 20% have been "affected," or about 4%. (2/2)
So this seemed really high. So poked around really briefly.
First, surveys are not a measurement of reality, but sentiment and knowledge (or lack thereof), so always take any survey with a grain of salt. Second, "affected" is a really non-descriptive term. (1/2)
Nice research by @jw_sec.
I installed every package on PyPI to look for malicious activity. I've published the results here: jordan-wright.com/blog/post/…
I'd like to talk a little about how this all works and why it's important: 🧵
On Veterans Day, I would like to thank all members of the military for their service and dedication to democracy, and remember my late uncle, who served as a radarman in the Pacific in WWII, and then—in only slightly less harrowing work—as a HS teacher and college professor.
This is important, and should be prominently displayed by any news organization that ran with the original story, which it turns out was disinformation. washingtonpost.com/investiga…

This is a story that Judge Jeffrey Sutton shares about an encounter late in my dad's life, when he bought his friend Ruth two dozen roses for her birthday. "Some things in life are more important than votes."

And that, everyone, is how The Atlantic saved Stars & Stripes.
The United States of America will NOT be cutting funding to @starsandstripes magazine under my watch. It will continue to be a wonderful source of information to our Great Military!
