NSO Group has been sanctioned by the US because of abuses connected to its Pegasus spyware Of course it's furiously lobbying to get off of those lists, in order to open up the lucrative 🇺🇸 defence and intelligence contract opportunities @vaspanagiotopoulos.com describes those efforts in detail 👇

Surveillance software historically used by authoritarian governments to spy on dissidents, civil society, and journalists. There is no need for this sort of surveillance technology in the United States. It must be de-platformed and blocked wherever possible.

This one’s for the lawyers! I met a young woman tonight whose name was Calea. She pronounced it “KAL-ay-ya” and had never heard of the CALEA Act. I told her she would be incredibly popular in DC. She was shocked that googling her name pulled up telecom legal results.

Thanks #SecTorCA @blackhatevents.bsky.social for an amazing time! Agentic AI needs major work in identity and security teams need the help of corporate leaders and governments to enable the secure future we want.

Businesses need to think about US state legislation like EU member state legislation - there are a lot of nuances and the fines can be massive. (See, e.g., Texas and data protection).

I am glad hearings are happening, but wish it were back in 2011 and 2012 before the EU started down this path of spyware. Now it’s so much harder to reverse, but even more essential.

Preach, @rgblights.bsky.social. Automatic updates must be based on trust, and that includes the laws of the operating country. Do we need to put flags on the boxes and on screens so people understand whose rules apply?

Preach, @wsj.com. The Covington & Burling team I have worked with for almost 20 years have been nothing but superlative lawyers providing me effective counsel when I needed it.

Hey infosec Skypeeps, I made the NYTimes Cooking Penang curry chicken dinner tonight and it impressed the teen boy. We have a winner!! cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1024...

The Penang sauce reducing on my stove with a red ladle in the pan

The original roux or curry mix, which to be fair looked and felt kind of clumpy so I added one tablespoon of coconut milk and then it started to behave and cook properly

Really enjoyed a few days with the Army Cyber Institute and the Cyber Defense Review for the learnings as we worked on articles for an upcoming edition. The Tabletop Exercise was also an interesting insight after hundreds of private sector TTx’s.

Me in front of a wall that says “Army Cyber Institute at West Point”

Looking out from Eisenhower Hall on West Point up the Hudson River, seeing hills across the River and some ice in the water and trees in the foreground. It’s also a clear and sunny day but there are no leaves on the trees so it looks cold.

25 years ago, I remember waking up and being amazed at how effective the Y2K remediation had been. We need that focused effort again to combat threats we face today. If only it were as easy.
