NetScaler's patched CVEs have reportedly been under active, state-linked exploitation for 3+ weeks (per Mandiant) — patching alone isn't enough. ➕ can an LLM "feel pain"? @secitup.bsky.social & @malwarejake.bsky.social explain why that's absurd. youtu.be/U8XHoeDeNHU #infosec #cybersecurity

Sorry, still annoyed about this, especially from someone I used to really look up to. The entire point of a CTF is to build skill—the very skill, by the way, necessary to verify any model output in a given field. Without knowing the stuff yourself, you can never know whether the model got it right.

Incident responder here: this approach is all kinds of stupid. Hoarding data you don't actually need, especially regulated data, just increases the blast radius of any future data breach. The users you forced into exposing more of their data to continue using your service will not be your allies.

Hey, cyberpeople. Help a PhD student out. Did you recently write or supervise a vendor's research report or release research on a blog? Maybe you dropped a vuln at a conference? In general, did you do something that, if we were in any other industry, would be an academic paper? Let me know.
