Sometimes the servers are running hot, the tickets are piling up, and you just want your site to chill out a little. So I did the obvious thing and added snow. Zach Leatherman’s snow-fall web component is a tiny script that lets you drop a subtle snow effect on your site with one HTML tag. It is zero-dependency and...
Most days, GRC feels less like “governance, risk, and compliance” and more like alphabet soup with lawyers attached. HIPAA for one client, PCI DSS for another, NIST CSF for your program, FTC Safeguards for the finance folks, NIS2 for the EU footprint. Everyone wants “compliance” and nobody wants to triple the...
Last week was a blend of the usual work hustle, which was the normal working the latest alert tickets, and the personal side of life that kept me grounded at times. Here’s a quick rundown of what went down last week. The 💻 Work Grind Nothing different happened at work this past week. It was a pretty standard week of...

Over the last few days we learned that millions of people have been happily browsing the web with what amounts to a remote-controlled spyware agent sitting inside their browser. Not a zero-day in some obscure driver, not a sketchy EXE your cousin downloaded, but “Verified” and even “Featured” extensions from the...
Could you be running a tiny slice of someone else’s botnet without realizing it? If you own a Superbox (or any “lifetime free TV” Android streaming box), the honest answer is: maybe. Recent research into Superbox and similar devices, including a detailed KrebsOnSecurity investigation[1] and follow-on work around the...
Due to the Thanksgiving holiday here in the US, it was a short week which was very welcomed. Here’s a quick rundown of what went down last week. 💻 Good ’ol Work Nothing much happened at work last week. It was a pretty quiet week overall, which was nice. Since I stepped back from doing as much of the hands-on IT...

The new executive order launching the Genesis Mission is being sold as America’s AI Apollo moment. The plan is to gather federal scientific datasets,...
