@UK_Daniel_Card @TheJavaHacker 100%! Departments also have different risk appetites, different sensitivities of data, and different budgets, so it’s a hard thing to make ‘standard’. 😬

@_AlanCurran @TheJavaHacker And there’s pros and cons. Diversity is quite a good thing when it comes to ensuring one comprise doesn’t cripple the country. *looks at microsoft* 😅

Cyber tweeps, check this out, lemme know what you think: cybertoolkit.service.ncsc.gov.uk

@TheJavaHacker @UK_Daniel_Card Gov isn’t as joined up as you’d imagine. As Daniel says, 100’s of orgs with their own systems and processes. Not centrally managed for the most part….

@UK_Daniel_Card Well, yeah to be fair. I’m certainly not new to being wrong. Good discussion though 👌🏼

@fly_byguy @sailingbikeruk @UK_Daniel_Card @PoliceScotland It’s covered under UK Regulation (EU) 2019/947 for those who need it… Also known as “common sense” 😬

@_AlanCurran @sailingbikeruk @UK_Daniel_Card @PoliceScotland Thanks Alan.

Will @PoliceScotland act on this blatant disregard for the drone regulations? The UK has already had a conviction for a similar offence this year.

@sailingbikeruk @fly_byguy @UK_Daniel_Card @PoliceScotland

@fly_byguy @UK_Daniel_Card @PoliceScotland I am genuinely intrigued, I haven’t flown mine for a long while, but I had a DJI mini 2, 249 grams, I am pretty sure I could have flown it in those circumstances at that distance. Its weight meant it could be. What current regulation do you believe is being broken?

Tell me you’re testing in Prod without telling me….

Hey Ryan! According to your screenshot here, it looks a lot like you’ve got 1Password disabled in the macOS menu bar which might be causing a fair bit of the trouble you’re seeing. For context: On macOS, the menu bar icon keeps 1Password running in the background which enables Touch ID, keyboard shortcuts, Quick Access, the SSH agent, and maintains the connection with the browser extension. If the menu bar icon is turned off and the main window is closed, macOS fully quits 1Password, which means those features won’t be available again until 1Password is reopened.

I'm sorry but can someone explain how I'm using @1Password wrong? It feels like I'm fighting dial-up pop-ups.

@Kwik_Fit @Pirelli Yoshi is the only correct answer…!

For whatever reason, senior leadership in Policing often seems to become toxic and difficult. This isn’t the first bullying claim against senior officers. It’s like they get some kind of superiority complex and then start fighting with one and other to prove they are important. And of the culture at the top is rotten, you know the rest of the fruit isn’t healthy either… bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Good morning form a sunny, but soon to be rainy, Edinburgh ☀️🌧️

How (and why) do people read anything on these "news" sites. It's literally just a screen full of ads, with single sentences of 'story' in between (and most of the time, it's click-bait nonsense anyway, not actual news).

My annual “Black Friday email subscription” purge has taken place. Emailing me about Black Friday? Unsubscribed. A yearly refresh of all those websites you forgot you signed up to 😂 I even delete the “Hide my Email” I used to sign up for each one. 🤓

@currys Hamilton, obviously

A few London councils, with shared IT services, currently dealing with a “cyber security incident”. No firm details yet, but one to watch to see if anything comes from this in the coming days, firstly threat intel and IOCs, secondly for lessons learned. rbkc.gov.uk/newsroom/we-ar…

Good Morning…
