At last month's @OneRSAC, I participated in a panel titled "How & Why Major Threat Actors Leverage Cyberpower to Subvert Democracy". The brilliant Gentry Lane and I discussed adversary use of cyberpower during peace, competition, and conflict, as well as adversary motivation, targets, and tactics.

@BrookingsFP The US grand strategy desired ends is to maintain the status quo as global hegemon. In this time of conflict/crisis, isn’t achieving hegemony the desired ends of all great powers?

@jeffseibert Has he been sentenced yet? It was supposed to happen last year.

Rothenberg, having been found guilty on 21 counts of fraud, files motions for a new trial and to be acquitted simultaneously. Unsurprisingly, his defense attorney withdraws from the case the same day. courtlistener.com/docket/1729869…

@AnalysisFact @intoverflow Euler? Euler?

Roses are red. Violets are blue. Pi squared over six equals zeta of two.

@juanandres_gs Cyberpower strategy. How the bad guys’ cyberpower projection is eroding our Democracy. Sigh. One day well irl.

@BadassDoGooder Doing my best to avoid it. What are you speaking on??

Not with that attitude… 🙄

@juanandres_gs Wow. Just wow.

It's called art, people.

“Kitchen Nightmares” but instead of restaurants, @GordonRamsay visits your blockchain or AI startup and tries your product

@vc @StephNass Just pointing out that women founders would never utter the words “they’re so cracked, Bro.” #lowtestosteroneinvesting

@StephNass So cringe. They’re so cracked Bro. Bro you don’t even understand how cracked they are. They’re barely functioning humans bro. One of them requires a feeding tube bro. Bro bro, have you seen the Goonies. Do you remember sloth bro?

Minor pet peeve... its irritating to hear founders talk about all the "Cracked" engineers they've hired. Today its cracked, it was based or blue flame, or 10x, or rock star, or great, or whatever. Tomorrow it will be Plaid engineers or someone will write an article on Winnie the Pooh and how building a company is like living in the 100 acre wood and then it will be Piglet engineers. The words are meaningless. Do you think any founder / CEO has said "we've hired a bunch of mediocre engineers?" or "I have a stable full of broken down nageneers?" Of course not. Lets just talk product, market, customers and then you can show me how Piglet your engineers are through execution. Also, VCs are equally culpable here. Every firm is top quartile, even the bottom quartile ones, and every partner, even the ones moving on, are celebrated as brilliant no matter how derivative their thinking is. As John Boyd said, you have a choice between being somebody or doing something. We should all focus more on the doing and less on the being.

@vc Elijah!!!! 😂🤣

Leave the box open and crack a car window. The 7th nugget is for Elijah.

The disclosure of SALT TYPHOON intrusions against US warranted access functions in telecom infrastructure is precisely the fulfillment of warning against mandated backdoors for merely administrative execution. We have known for over 15 years that this is a priority domestic target for adversary services, with repeated new examples from foreign networks year over year. & that no extant implementation is ever secured effectively against sustained pressure over time. Yet LE proponents defending bureaucratic interests dismissed intelligence driven concerns, with unearned confidence that can only be described as motivated ignorance. We pay the price, now and in the fights to come.

"The best lesson is the speed of information sharing… to change our posture from ‘need to know’ to ‘need to share." - Maj. Gen @MolendaKarol, Commander, Cyber Command @CyberWojska, Polish Armed Forces

We are already getting some amazing submissions to CYBERWARCON, but we could definitely use more submissions from folks in underrepresented demos, more from folks who've never presented at the con, and more submissions on cyberattack and info ops. There’s one week left! 1/x

@MalwareJake Infuriating. I get it all the time.

Last night at an event, someone says to me "well, you're too young to understand the significance of that" to which I said "precisely how young do you think I am?" It turns out they were off by more than 10 years and I'm older than them...

@MalwareJake The book Bowling Alone answers part of this question

We have a fundamental breakdown of the social contract in the US. I don't have the answers for how to fix it. But I've read enough history books to know what happens if we don't - and it's not great.
