A crypto fintech company went bankrupt in part because it lost the password to a physical wallet with $38.9 million worth of crypto in it. It is **NOT GOOD** if your bankruptcy filing has a huge section called "The Wallet Event"

If you're just getting started in security and find things overwhelming, you're not alone.
There's SO MUCH MORE to know today for an entry level job than for many mid/senior-level security positions a decade ago. Keep learning and don't get discouraged. You can do it!

Luvaton hakkerointi on rikos - tietojen vuotaminen vielä vakavampi.
Jos huomaat sattumalta #tietoturva-ongelman, ilmoita toki organisaatiolle ja tarvittaessa @CERTFI.
Jos haluat haastaa itseäsi, osallistu tarjolla oleviin #BugBounty-ohjelmiin.

Findings won’t be made public until about February. And even then, fixing flaws in these digital constructs — whose inner workings are neither wholly trustworthy nor fully fathomed even by their creators — will take time and millions of dollars. #defcon fortune.com/2023/08/13/hacke…

"Those optimists who confidently predicted a quick and easy victory when Ukraine launched its long-awaited counteroffensive did Kyiv no favours by raising expectations to unrealistic levels." #turpo
#Ukraine is winning the war with #Russia, but it won’t be over by Christmas
My latest for @thetimes - a breakthrough is still possible but the odds are diminishing. That doesn’t mean the counteroffensive can be simply written off as a failure though (£)

Just a gentle reminder that #PhD students are not ‘just employees’.
Even though their duties may involve extensive multitasking - lab work, data analysis, purchases, writing, travel, organizing social outings, etc…
They are also scholars who aspire to gain new knowledge and experience.
Which means they need YOUR attention in return.
Your knowledge, your experience and advice.
It’s called mentorship.
▫️
There are no lazy students.
There are students who lack proper support.
