Thanks for having me, Mackenzie!
"The last programmer has already been born" That was a hot take from @mikko when he came on The Secure Disclosure Podcast.
Honestly I've interviewed many people.... this is the one I was most nervous about. I tried my best to play it cool.

Quote: "an independent security researcher reported that the keys of eight eMudhra Global TLS intermediate Certificate Authorities were cryptographically weak".
Well, yeah, they were weak. A private key should look something like this:
84ac06790886c80c48d31691fd4c0fe9
ce3207f9807f2fe571d6e4ec426d7864
4298fc53df2b92566970e757ac998c34
Instead, their keys looked like this:
00000000000000000000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000004
Global TLS Intermediate CA incident: We’ve updated our incident page with how it happened, who is affected (one US customer ecosystem), what’s not affected, and what we’re putting in place. We will publish the root cause once our investigation is complete.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
eMudhra minimizes the scope by claiming only "one US customer ecosystem" is affected. In reality, 8 of its CA certificates had catastrophically weak private keys (one being simply the number 4), allowing anyone to forge trusted HTTPS certificates for any website on the internet.blog.google/security/prote…
The headquarters of one of the world's most valuable companies was hit by a missile last night.
Reuters: A company source told Reuters earlier that a ballistic missile hit the Aramco headquarters complex in Dhahran. The source said an office tower in the complex was struck and that its top three floors were damaged. The source and two other people with knowledge of the matter said the building was on fire.
The complex hosts a major operations centre for Aramco, which oversees a vast network of onshore and offshore oil rigs, pipelines, refineries and export terminals.
Probably the best business move Google ever did.
