@BenjaminDEKR For the last several years, NCSC and NIST guidance has advised against frequent forced password changes. Only change if there's a suspicion of compromise. Otherwise, people end up writing them down or just incrementing the number at the end, which doesn't improve security at all!

Is there any real evidence that forcing users to change their passwords every ___ months actually improves security? It seems more likely they won't remember their password, writing it down places they shouldn't or triggering less-secure password resets

@AzleyChandler @Midoritex @UK_Daniel_Card If you already have the certs, you should be fine.

@danmullen @Midoritex @UK_Daniel_Card I installed the recent security update that Windows sent out, and I'm hearing that it patched the issue. I also checked my Certificate panel and have valid DigiCert entries. Should I still restore the items in quarantine?

Anyone seeing this: 'Cerdigent' high-severity malware was detected

@UK_Daniel_Card I can see over 400 regkeys have been created today, which is well short of the number of alerts, but hopefully MS is in the process of restoring everything.

If you have MDE here is a query to help: DeviceRegistryEvents | where RegistryKey contains "0563B8630D62D75ABBC8AB1E4BDFB5A899B24D43" or RegistryKey contains "DDFB16CD4931C973A2037D3FC83A4D7D775D05E4" | where ActionType == "RegistryKeyCreated" | where Timestamp > datetime(2026-05-03T04:00:00) | project Timestamp, DeviceName, ActionType, InitiatingProcessFileName, RegistryKey, RegistryValueName, RegistryValueData, RegistryValueType | order by Timestamp desc expanded on from: reddit.com/r/cybersecurit…

@Midoritex @UK_Daniel_Card It's a false positive. The message you're seeing is probably because the trust chain is broken thanks to MS removing two important root CA certs from the trust store. If you can restore it from quarantine, that should fix it.

@UK_Daniel_Card i have same Trojan:Win32/Cerdigent.A!dha and it trigger roots, what to do? it is in quarantine, delete it? im so scared atm because i had also trigger message about page not available, your it admin has limited access to some areas of this app lol, malwarebytes find nothing

“Not only would Sunderland do better in the Premier League than Sheffield United…” 🤔 “They would do better than Burnley” 👀 “Their recruitment is so forward thinking” 👏 Do you agree with @RyanDilks1?👇 🔗 lnk.to/secondtier Follow @sbk 👈 #SAFC

Sunderland fans in for a big shock when they realise signing a whole new team doesn’t keep you up. Finished miles behind Burnley and leeds last season who have both improved their squads. Sunderland will finish bottom. #twitterclarets #LUFC #SAFC

@RichardYannow @SusanPolgar @FIDE_chess @WOMChess Yes, you're absolutely right. That'll teach me to do chess puzzles before bed 🤦‍♂️

@danmullen @SusanPolgar @FIDE_chess @WOMChess Black's pawn is moving down the board. D3 is stalemate. Your solution has both pawns moving the same direction.

This was the very first chess puzzle I ever created — when I was just four years old. White to move and mate in 2. I’ve been in love with creating chess puzzles ever since. To date, I’ve composed well over 30,000 of them. #Passion #ChessTactic #ChessPunks @FIDE_chess @WOMChess @OnTheQueenside @FideWomen @ECUonline

@Duncan31503119 @SusanPolgar @FIDE_chess @WOMChess No, the queen is on h4.

@danmullen @SusanPolgar @FIDE_chess @WOMChess I agree about Kd1 solutions being flawed. But your way, couldn't King move to h1? What am I missing...?

Introducing Project Glasswing: an urgent initiative to help secure the world’s most critical software. It’s powered by our newest frontier model, Claude Mythos Preview, which can find software vulnerabilities better than all but the most skilled humans. anthropic.com/glasswing

There is absolutely zero chance Sunderland beat us tomorrow mind. ZERO. It simply won’t happen.

@alitajran Is this genuine? I can't find any information about this 🤔

@drneiljohnson @DanNeidle I have dealt with an example in the past where someone managed to change CH records. It was never resolved, though they insisted the bad actor MUST have had access to the auth code. I too am wondering how long this vulnerability has existed... 🤔

Given the mind-numbingly simple way of circumventing the "security" of the system, does that blow a hole in any past, present or future case involving the accuracy of information in CH? If CH builds a case on the accuracy of data held on their systems surely now a director can scream "LOOK! SEE! WASN'T ME!!!"? Is this the next Horizon-like scandal?

I see some weird things but this takes the biscuit. A vulnerability in the Companies House website, that let anyone view the private dashboard of any one of the five million registered companies, see directors' personal details. And modify them.

My lesbian neighbors asked me to help them conceive a child recently. They said, "they don't mind if we did it the old fashioned way," as the are pretty easy going. Past 3 months now we have been trying, but I just don’t have the heart to tell them I had a vasectomy last year!

@ChinoMerchant @FBAwayDays Sunderland has a population of 350,000.

@FBAwayDays We struggle to fill 49k never mind 84k plus it'll be utterly ridiculous since Sunderland isn't a major city with a population of 275k

It’s being reported that Sunderland's Stadium of Light could be extended to 84,000 seats, making it one of the largest stadiums in Europe. Imagine that… 🤯😍

@Betfred What's happened to your website? No sports showing.

@ProtonPrivacy Fantastic news - I've been waiting for this!

Proton Sheets. You asked for it. Now it's here. (Details in 🧵)

@MichaelBowers15 8 - cautiously optimistic!

What's a realistically good points tally this month do we think?

@TomCantonMedia It wasn't a foul.

How much mainstream analysis has been done on the Ballard/Merino elbow in the box that was a clear foul? Feel like I’m not seeing it discussed anywhere.

@Caltermole If it hadn't have gone in, it should have been a penalty as Brobbey was being pulled down backwards by his shirt!

Not taking the piss here, what possible reason could there be for disallowing it?
