@ajxchapman @FuzzySec But I echo how being thrown in at the deep end on site was often when you learnt the most, not just technically but in how to work together with a client, even if it was very stressful at times.

@ajxchapman @FuzzySec I did get told once that I was "too junior to turn down opportunities" when I said I needed a break, after being told to do another week away at short notice, having just done 6 out of the last 7 weeks away from home in hotels. They even put it in my annual review as a negative!

I experienced a lot of this early in my pentesting career in the late 00's at a big consultancy in the UK.
We were certainly expected to be experts on all things tech, and if we didn't have experience there was a definite "you'll learn on the job" mentality from management. 1/x

I wrote this to try to bring some reality to people trying to break into cyber. People will disagree with some (all) of it but hopefully somebody benefits from what I saw when I worked as a pentester. assume-breach.medium.com/im-not-a-pente…

@danielfernandez Yeah, the amount of spam bots that just latch onto a particular word is ridiculous!

@djcater Looks like you have attracted some bots 😏. It has been too long man, hope all is well.

Some common sense prevails at least. A low-volume write-only automated account can remain free.

A new form of free access will be introduced as this is extremely important to our ecosystem – limited to Tweet creation of up to 1,500 Tweets per month for a single authenticated user token, including Login with Twitter.

Well that's going to kill off a lot of useful accounts.
Developers@XDevelopers
Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

The 3 main things I'm missing since the Firefox for Android rewrite:
- Setting a custom homepage
- Option for persistent URL bar that doesn't hide on scroll
- Save as PDF

4 years later, Amazon are finally starting to decouple Amazon retail and AWS accounts.
DC@djcater
Do yourself a favour and use different email addresses for your Amazon shopping and AWS accounts. Otherwise weird things start happening with billing and addresses, and frankly I don't trust that the integration between the two doesn't lead to unexpected security vulnerabilities.

@djcater Hi again. We've reached out to you over DM. Let's continue our conversation there.

@nerodenc @GitHubSecurity @stephenlacy The person who set up the listener captured a whole bunch of data, so it cannot be none.

GitHub is investigating the Tweet published Wed, Aug. 3, 2022:
* No repositories were compromised
* Malicious code was posted to cloned repositories, not the repositories themselves
* The clones were quarantined and there was no evident compromise of GitHub or maintainer accounts

@LiveOverflow Well exfiltrating the sensitive data over unencrypted HTTP for a start is a terrible way to try and keep people on side. Every intermediate network hop could see the data if they wanted to (and have now stored it if they do packet capture).

Tried to make a meme 🤡
But serious question, how to do large scale testing like this ethically?
