Amateur Security Archaeologists, trying not to break things.
Hey folks! This may be the last one of these for a couple of weeks, because I am headed to Amsterdam for Cisco Live Europe! I am excited to be talking about MITRE ATT&CK and helping facilitate a Threat Picture discussion with my good friend King Mark.

Good morning folks! I had a great time in Boston this week hanging out with a cool partner, but in my travels I gathered some updates on the threat side of things that we all should be aware of:
