Their staff uniform...
Consultant pentesters, What do you wear to go onsite at a client office? I need clothes that look professional, but with an “edge” that makes it clear to everyone around me that I, the mysterious hired hacker, am cooler than all.

Well that should put an end to about 8 years of forum posts begging for this functionality.
The latest version of Google's Authenticator app for two-factor adds the ability to backup your one-time codes to your Google Account! That setup is made even better when paired with Google's Advanced Protection Program. security.googleblog.com/2023…

I look at terms like ‘pig butchering scams’ and shake my head. Did we need any more useless terminology? It does nothing. It explains nothing. Stop it.

Earlier this week, systems in our development environment were compromised via a social engineering attack. We don’t have all the answers right now, but we wanted to communicate early and let you know there is no indication that player data or personal information was obtained.

The reality of bad design:
Online banking password screens that use a scroll window to choose a letter/number from my password have forced me to use only the first 8 letters from the alphabet in all my passwords because I can't be arsed to scroll down.

Why OSINT matters.
I'm somewhat of a prepper but don't have nearly enough money to get real about it. Instead, I follow a lot of preppers from my local area on social media who are not wise enough to mask their location. I've got a map on my wall with all the best spots should shit hit the fan.

I’ve so much respect for Jim and what he does. He doesn’t get enough praise for taking down scammers, so cool that Vice did this piece youtu.be/CZbEQsKLRZQ India needs to do more to kill off these scam call centres

I would have betted money on Elon Musk being the one person who would stop Elon Musk scams... It's a weird world sometimes.

#RomanceScams use #SocialEngineering to dupe and loot victims. We enjoyed this article by @FranCassidy4 that features @Rfdevere of @antisocial_eng raconteur.net/business-strat… Our students also shared their thoughts on #SocialEngineering in this #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth PSA

Have you ever been scammed? If so, it may have been #socialengineering which made it possible. So, what is social engineering, and how can organisations protect themselves against it? I spoke to the brilliant @Rfdevere to find out. raconteur.net/business-strat…
So many Help for Household scammers it needs branding.

One simple SMS tip: If a scam message has the same sender ID (name at the top) your phone will chain it to the last real message. Don’t be fooled.

Behold, the raw power of SMS, a failed communication method from 1993. Are you thinking about #SMShing
