For Dark Reading, Jai Vijayan wrote this interesting piece on how China is positioning the US as the aggressor in their low-key cyberwar (my words; sorry, still on my first coffee): https://www.darkreading.com/cybersecurity-operations/china-dogged-campaign-victim-of-us-hacking

My Linux phone roundup for @darkreading is finally live! I don't know why I was surprised how easy it was to adjust to the PinePhone. Note that I haven't added it to my phone plan or anything - it's just a mini-computer like my main phone is 95% percent of the time. #DarkReading #LinuxPhones https://www.darkreading.com/endpoint-security/smartphones-avoid-android-ios

A really interesting piece ran on Dark Reading's The Edge section yesterday by our new contributor, Uli Ries, sharing the story of how researchers used AI to track Russian disinformation in Hungary ahead of the Ukraine invasion: https://www.darkreading.com/edge/ai-helps-uncover-russian-state-sponsored-disinformation-in-hungary #DarkReading #Russia #Hungary

I have been extremely lax in promotions since the RSS feed broke, but there's a free live event going on at Dark Reading right now - and I'll be moderating a panel on proactive security at 12:15 Pacific/3:15 Eastern: https://ve.informaengage.com/virtual-events/think-like-an-attacker-understanding-cybercriminals-and-nation-state-threat-actors/

What is proactive security? Tune in, because I'll be asking that of one of the guys who wrote the report on it. Panelists are Andrew Braunberg, Shawn Duffy, Andy Thompson, and Jay Lillie.

Funding-driven furloughs forced me to leave my government job, and I suspect a fair portion of the EIGHTY PERCENT of CISA employees who are set to get furloughed won't come back. Becky Bracken reports on the situation for @darkreading : https://www.darkreading.com/cloud/government-shutdown-poised-to-stress-nation-s-cybersecurity-supply-chain

This was an interesting one from @darkreading
Dark Reading's Robert Lemos. Cyber insurance companies found, in separate studies, substantial disparity in reportable attacks on the major cloud email systems. https://www.darkreading.com/dr-tech/when-it-comes-to-email-security-the-cloud-you-pick-matters

Let's see if this works. @darkreading columnist Michael Bargury explains why cybersecurity conferences are still so important.

I wanted to call out this article from Dark Reading today about the continued presence of SQL injection attacks; written by @Omkhar of the OpenSSF, it points out some important changes needed - and contains a link to the OpenSSF's free courses on secure software development. Enjoy! https://www.darkreading.com/edge-articles/moveit-was-a-sql-injection-accident-waiting-to-happen #DarkReading #SQLinjection #SecureSoftwareDevelopment

BBC is starting its own Mastodon instance. The CBC should do the same.

As it says in the title, the BBC is starting its own Mastodon instance. I think the CBC (and other news networks) should do similar. Particularly with the recent passing of Bill C-18 it seems like a world where the links we share are crossposts to news organization’s own content is the perfect resolution to that whole issue.

Back to the best place I've ever worked: Did you know Dark Reading has a cartoon caption contest every month? I would love it if some of you creative folks could send in some one-liners: https://www.darkreading.com/edge-articles/name-that-edge-toon-three-ring-circus #DarkReading #CartoonContest #NameThatEdgeToon #JohnKlossner #CybersecurityHumor

My employer Dark Reading just launched a DR Global section, starting with the Middle East and Africa. If you have story ideas or pitches related to those areas, now would be a good time to pitch 'em: https://www.darkreading.com/dr-global/dark-reading-goes-global #DarkReading
