As we watch Basic Auth in O365 finally start to die off, I find myself reflecting on how ridiculously long we've lived with MFA Bypass as a thing. Those incident & pentest findings were brutal for orgs that thought their heroic efforts to roll out MFA had done some good.

I thought "hey, maybe #Linux🐧is ready for regular people" and got my wife all set up👍 Two weeks later she's stuck in a black initramfs boot loop and I'm scrolling linux forums like it's 2007 to intone the right CLI-magic to fix the thing👎 Guess I'll try again in 3 more yrs🤷

First one to tell me how @OpenAI will replace my #infosec job wins my eternal gratitude. I've got a mortgage to pay and food to eat.
Replying to @JimmyVo
@JimmyVo you gave me an idea....will @OpenAI be writing our threat detections next? Here's a first attempt without any special training data; it seems to get the gist of it. Will we someday skip this human-centric step completely? #Blueteam #BlueteamAI

Messing around with @OpenAI looking for some interesting #BlueTeam use cases is like playing two truths and a lie: shocking accuracy followed complete fiction. Here's the (slightly modified) 2021 Kesaya attack as analyzed by a robot. Any lies? Try it out! beta.openai.com/playground/p…
