This podcast with @ianlpaterson was such a pleasure to record. It has some of the origin lore of Hack the Pentagon and my thoughts on the inescapable realities of the Vulnerability Equities Process and much more. @LutaSecurity.

Another fun fact: This vulnerability was one that helped me launch Microsoft Vulnerability Research (MSVR), the first major software vendor multiparty vulnerability coordination process & 3rd party vuln research & reporting process. Google Project Zero followed ~7 years later.
Fun fact: this vulnerability spurred the creation of the pwnies.

My nephew loves the outdoors & he’s competing to win a spot in a Ranger Rick magazine. You can vote for free with Facebook verification. Votes are doubled today (Sunday). Si Yu'us Ma'åse (that’s thank you in CHamoru)🙏🏼

UBI would make every day #IndependenceDay.
Universal basic income is what true independence would look like. A high enough UBI would be FU money for all of society. They don't want you to have the power to refuse low wages and the freedom to make your own choices and pursue what you want. It's why we have to fight for it!

. @CurrentJen tops the list of people who have enabled me to grow as a person & professional. She’s the best person to strategically work towards company goals while effortlessly handling the gnarliest security crisis comms. Hire Jen Wood if you “take security very seriously.”.
After five incredible years at @LutaSecurity, I’ll be moving on at the end of the month and looking for a new senior communications leadership role within the cybersecurity industry. For more info about my background, please read: Thanks!.

There will be significant effects on national security from these CISA budget & personnel cuts. There has also been a general sharp downturn in cyber spending & jobs across the board in the private sector. The net effect is a nation weakening as attacks increase.
New: Trump's proposed CISA budget would cut $425M and >1,000 positions, w/ deep cuts to partner engagement & risk analysis. Cuts would affect vuln assessments, shared services, trainings, election security, intl affairs, & more. My story w/ full details:

Voice clones are easy. Be suspicious even if a call appears to be from someone you know. Also…Don’t set up voice authentication for banking.
AI voice clones have hit the White House! .If your team isn’t prepared to catch and stop these voice clone attacks, now’s a good time to get them educated and set up. Use a 2nd method of communication to verify identity before sending money, docs, data, etc. Be politely paranoid.

NIST’s proposed Likely Exploited Vulnerabilities equation is interesting, & similar predictive attempts were made by Microsoft over 16 years ago w the Exploitability Index. My concern is always an over reliance on data that may not apply to your org. My comments in the article.

When I testified before US Congress about the Uber data breach when they misused their bug bounty program to pay off data thieves, I didn’t think I would have to update my core guidance to include this:.Don’t let extortionists set your bounty reward price. Coinbase was *right*.
Cyber criminals bribed and recruited rogue overseas support agents to pull personal data on <1% of Coinbase MTUs. No passwords, private keys, or funds were exposed. Prime accounts are untouched. We will reimburse impacted customers. More here:
