Good words here. Unfortunately I’ve been involved in far too many IRs where the victim is unable to provide the information the reputable IR firm needs.
Because predatory companies are taking advantage of the many ransomware victims out there these days, I wrote some basic expectations you should have of your contracted IR team and why, from the perspective of an incident responder. tisiphone.net/2021/05/11/rea… via tisiphone-net

A lot of firms are going to be out there shilling magic boxes to fix “everything” in the coming weeks, but while the malware and anti-forensics in these cases are often quite sophisticated, we see the same lack of security hygiene and basic defense in depth exploited repeatedly.

What I probably long for the most post-COVID is ending up in random cities and doing lunch/dinner with y'all weirdos without much planning ahead. I don't need the mass events. I need 1:x (x<5) time with y'all weirdos.

This.
Defenders get to design the playing field where the game is played. Defenders have a huge home court advantage.
Defenders can set up telemetry unknown to attackers.
Defenders have every advantage, and it isn’t included in blinky-light boxes.
Defense engineering is beauty.

Cools things off briefly but ratchets the humidity up to new levels. That being said, I do like the sound of the rain coming down as long as I have a solid roof over my head.

Everyone thinks “Zero Trust” is sexy, but none want to have the uncomfortable, often ugly conversation about all the technical debt and IT hygiene they HAVE TO fix before they even begin to design for ZT. Much less actually do the things those conversations uncover.

I hope the species that comes after us takes their stewardship of this remarkable planet to heart.

want to bypass Startup folder file write monitoring ?
1) rename "Startup" folder
2) drop the target file in the renamed startup folder
3) rename it back to "Startup"

You can tell it’s summer in Florida by the regular afternoon monsoons. 45min of heavy rain sometime between 2pm and 5pm.
