@WillGregorian Hey! Me too. Hope my employer doesn’t find out. 😏

@jasonkovacs Varies a lot per person… going through a book called “Essentialism” right now (recommended for your list) and he would suggest instead of one goal, focus on what’s some progress you can focus on in small steps. I.e. Can I do 10 min/day for 2 weeks? Then reevaluate.

Serious question - for someone with a busy family and a ministry job what is a good suggested goal for time spent reading per day (outside of scripture)?

@WillGregorian Did you look on the shelf?

You owe it to yourself to seek out mentors. Yes, plural; some you'll outgrow, different people will excel in different areas, and finding perspectives to help inform your own is important. I have at least five right now. I bet three of them don't realize I'm talking about them.

@shreyas Agree this could be more customer friendly but, having written requirements for features like this, you have to cover all kinds of email addresses including name@customdomain.com - and this simple approach covers them all.

“We have sent you a password reset email at s******@g****.com” Literally no legit attacker is thinking: “gee, I wonder what domain that is.” So just say gmail.com

@NTKramer Office chairs depreciate like rocks. Shop a used office furniture stores/Classified for more than half off Herman Miller, Steelcase, etc

Does anyone have office chair recommendations that aren't $1000? I've fallen out of comfort with my Secret Lab chair, unfortunately.

Reminder that cybersecurity tools are often abused to make this unhealthy and increasingly pervasive culture of employee productivity monitoring possible - from MDM, to keystroke monitoring, to internet usage tracking. Always think of potential abuse of the stuff you implement.

@rmondello @thegrugq Agree - we have fallen into a trap of thinking more factors are inherently better… like more locks on a door. We’ve stopped considering that one strong lock could be better. I think passkeys will be game changing.

I hope to dethrone the dogma around Multi-Factor Authentication. MFA/2FA is sometimes a means to phishing-resistance, but not an end to itself. Our industry needs friendly-to-humans, phishing-resistant, secure-by-design authentication. Passkeys deliver this.

@PatrickMcCanna I think you mean, “this cool spacy example should be checked out” :-)

Hiring for: - Security Engineers (Security + coding/scripting) - TPMs (Security + Program Management) - BIE (Data + Visualization) - Industry Specialist (Risk Expert) Hit me up if you'd like to talk. DM's open 2/2

Don't believe the hype - some companies are still #hiring. I lead strategic risk management for Amazon Consumer Security, and I have more than a dozen positions open on my team. Flexible on location/ remote possible. Looking for... 1/2

@WillGregorian Hey Will, I lead Strategic Risk Management for Amazon. I have multiple open roles and would be happy to connect you to other roles if you’d like to talk my DMs are open.

@hacks4pancakes The issue is that we’ve over indexed on multiple factors when the real problem is a password by itself is a bad factor. FIDO tokens only are very strong against the most common attacks without a password. Using TouchID or Win Hello 4 Biz or $20 sec key will do it. Largely solved.

So since nobody is really the bad person here, we have to start thinking about ways that MFA could be more transparent and easier to implement in these situations. Or some way to compensate the devs.

This is such an interesting thing to ponder. Pypi did a everything right in a lot of ways - facilitated and provided tokens. MFA is super important. But open source devs are rage quitting because it does add an extra step and more time to their work. Can we make it easier?

@jasonkovacs The Touch Bar is an abomination. Sweet spot is about to be the M2 MacBook Air that has been announce but not released (July 15). M2 pro has better battery life (20hrs!) but old design. The M chips are amazing all of them will be a huge jump forward.

It may be time for a new laptop :( My 2013 MacBook Pro has served me faithfully but starting to get buggy. Looking at the 13" Air or Pro. Any advice? How is the touch bar?

Great companies too.
