Shape the battlefield with what you have. Cybersecurity is (almost) always a logistical conversation first, followed by tactical and strategic decisions based on that. Most people would probably be shocked at how well a small team can shape the battlefield to devastating effect against an opponent.

Conjecture: we have enough "how to get into cyber" contents. Proposed: start making more "how to hack this one specific thing" contents (some are already doing this and I like them)

NVIDIA Nemoclaw's security is worse than I expected. The AI can modify its own config to bypass security controls. I asked it to accept websocket connections from any origin and change its token to something trivial (123). Now any site I visit can give instructions to my bot.

@QTRBlackGarrett Mood music compliments good cinematography... :-) Bad cinematography makes the mood music feel overdone and out of place.

@DecryptedTech Right! There’s a bit of mood music. But it’s second behind really great cinematography

Lock down MS365 (including Intune, Teams, SharePoint, and we'll all of it) security people have been saying for years... While yes it is a 100% good idea to lock down Intue (always has been) the current hyper focus in a single blade in MS365 can (and often does) cause other areas to get ignored) Comment not aimed at Krassas..

And here we have an example of why this narrative is impacting (directly) employment... A member of the c-suite is going to see this and think "ok... but I don't want to pay $750k for a single position... what if we fire the $500k person and hire a $100k person... we will get the "$same results with *AI and save $150K per year!!" They will then go on to throw out their shoulder patting themselves on the back and award a bonus to the entire C-Suite for their cleverness.... Stop this BS messaging.
