Wonder how many of those 40000+ mentions were bots? If Facebook is manipulated to shift elections, why wouldn't we expect Twitter be manipulated to shift social media platforms? Also, I suspect many millions have already abandoned face

I'd say a significant amount of our problems are not transaction log failures - they are authentication/identity failures. The catch is that blockchain technologies force you to solve both (you cant take part in a transaction with

It doesn't contradict anything, it just lowers the probability of being right a hair (For the extreme few APTs who would bother with such trivialities), hence the "attribution is bullshit" -- you can't ever know . Howev

sure, IOC monitoring can be done via osquery (free), or tanium ($$$). You just have to build your own ruleset to pickup IOCs. Linux has AV, and nextgen stuff like Cylance (works but super buggy, runs as a kernel module). You also have othe

APT groups have a set of tools, techniques, and processes (ttps) that they use. They evolve over time, but generally consistent per APT group. It's maybe dozens of methods and signature moves that teams use to attribute the actor. Malw

Great post Mike! Just wish there was a solid solution for identity providers in the enterprise space (gsuite and activeAD exist, but pretty rare). Instead every company ends up building their own IDP and making all these same mistakes. The

I wonder if many comments these days are bots just trying to farm karma, so they can sell astroturfing campaigns later. They all take turns upvoting themselves.. Or maybe I'm paranoid

M&A has been the strategy of just about all major companies for the last 18 months, and because of the lead time, I think 2018 is going to be even busier.

Very very few people I hope. There is no economic incentive for companies to invest in secure design/architecture. The costs of building it right almost always lose to other product owner features and timelines. Until we can actually g
