@InsideStairwell takes YARA very seriously. We also make it stupid easy and ludicrously fast.

Some see ‘best practices’ as the finish line and feel satisfied. Others see them as a starting point, knowing excellence starts where the checklist ends. Are you settling, or striving for more? Which kind of security professional are you?

In Friends, Chandler was essentially a Data Scientist. No one knew what he did, but damn, he was ahead of his time.

Cookie consent screens on websites are like California’s Prop65 warnings. Can we all just assume websites use cookies and move on? Collectively, across the world, the cost in time consumed has to be in the billions of dollars at this point. A hidden tax with no benefit.

Does anyone else hate it when you click a news story and it goes right to a video? I don’t know why, but it makes me unreasonable angry like I was tricked.

Defense in depth isn't just about stacking different solutions for various domains like network firewalls and EDRs. True depth means multiple layers of protection within each domain. Relying solely on one approach (or vendor) leaves gaps in your defenses. Learn more.

The world's going to hell. I made pizza today. It was delicious. Time to remember that social media was built for sharing photos of food and cats.

So who’s responsible for patching malware that embeds openssh? Surely threat actors have robust vulnerability management plans in place.

I was too lazy to walk over to the escalator so I took the stairs instead. I’m so confused by what this means.

Google has to stop hitting itself. Don’t make the same mistakes Boeing did and now has to correct.

apparently Google laid off their entire Python Foundations team, WTF! ( @SkyLi0n who is one of the pybind11 maintainers just informed me, asking what ways they can re-fund pybind11) The team seems to have done substantial work that seems critical for Google internally as well.
