@VitalVegas @daverichard Maybe you/we could do a top 5 list of Strip location overdue for demolition. I think both Luxor pyramid & Excalibur are on there. Cromwell. The Harrah's-Linq-Flamingo block.

The Cromwell will be a Las Vegas trivia question someday. Related: That day might actually be today. (h/t @daverichard)

I went to France last year and learned when they ask you if you drink or smoke at a doctor’s office it’s actually an offer, not a screening question.

Took the Gripen out for a ride yesterday. Strong, smart and at supersonic speed - Sweden! X – won’t you help me? Send this to someone who also should get themselves a piece of world class engineering and innovative adaptable software. Welcome to Sweden, we are open for business.

We loved giving a warm Texas welcome to @NASA Associate Administrator Amit Kshatriya and giving him a behind the scene look at Blue Ghost Mission 2 and our Eclipse rocket. These partnerships are key to America leading the next era of space exploration on the Moon and beyond.

The Great Casino Fish Tank Hack🐠🐟🐡🐚 👇
Evan Kirstel #B2B #TechFluencer@EvanKirstel

Kicking off RSAC season with one of my all-time favorite “you genuinely cannot make this up” stories in cybersecurity. A luxury casino got hacked through a fish tank. Not the payment systems, not the hotel network, not even a careless employee clicking a sketchy email. A smart aquarium in the lobby with sensors tracking water temperature, salinity, and feeding schedules so the facilities team could manage it remotely. A harmless convenience. A completely unmanaged endpoint sitting inside the network perimeter. Attackers found it exposed online, probably weak credentials or an unpatched interface, and used it as their way in. And then the fish tank stopped being the story. What followed was a textbook lateral movement play. Once inside, they mapped the network, escalated privileges, probed for accessible systems, and navigated toward the thing that actually mattered: the high-roller database. When it was time to get the data out, they routed roughly 10GB through the aquarium device itself. Slow, blending in with normal outbound traffic. No alarms, no friction. The same device that got them in became the exit channel. What makes this story impossible to forget isn’t the sophistication, it’s the asymmetry. The defenders were focused on protecting the crown jewels while the attackers started with the least protected thing on the network. Nothing about the fish tank screamed “attack vector.” That was the whole point. For years, cybersecurity thinking centered on traditional endpoints: servers, laptops, enterprise software. The attack surface was relatively bounded and you knew what you were defending. That world is gone. Modern environments are filled with cameras, medical devices, HVAC systems, smart lighting, conference room displays, factory floor sensors, and increasingly AI systems with broad API access and connections to sensitive data. Every one of them is effectively a computer that expands the potential attack surface, and almost none of them get the same patching discipline, network segmentation, or visibility as the “real” infrastructure. The fish tank wasn’t a weird anomaly, it was an early signal. Run the same scenario today and the entry point might be a connected infusion pump, an autonomous warehouse robot, or an AI agent with read/write access to systems no one thought to lock down. The pattern doesn’t change. Initial access comes from something overlooked, and standard techniques do the rest. Attackers rarely try the front door anymore. They look for whatever is easiest to reach and hardest to see. So the real question heading into #RSAC isn’t whether your core systems are secure. It’s what in your environment feels too small, too operational, or too irrelevant to matter, because that’s usually where the story starts. 🐟🔐

Great for Caesars Platinum tier members (second lowest tier, we achieved it by having the Caesars Rewards credit card), terrible for Vegas (and Jerry Seinfeld).

Kepler Commissions First NVIDIA-Powered “Cloud Infrastructure” Across Optical Constellation Kepler Communications announced the successful commissioning of distributed on-orbit computing across its Tranche 1 optical data relay constellation on Monday, March 16, 2026. This milestone transitions Kepler’s network from a high-speed data transport layer into a scalable, cloud-native processing environment, allowing customers to execute AI-driven workloads directly in orbit rather than relying on ground-based data centers. #MissionsConstellations #SmallSat satnews.com/2026/03/17/kep…
