♥️ oh... I've been there. Try thinking what you would say if your best friend said that about themselves. Then try to question why they deserve better than you, in your own mind. And that perhaps you deserve kindness and compassion as well. ♥️

I came from from Ontario to very wet and dying flowers. They have something called powdery mildew and it means the end of this season. I'm going to post pics as I prepare for winter. #infosecgardening

I wrote a blog and made a video about the Vibe Check panel I was on at #SectorCA in Toronto. It talks about vibe coding, helping AIs create more secure code, and how to find shadow AI in your code!

How do you get developers to read security scan results? I know lots of them are happy to do security work, but not all of them. How do you get to the difficult ones? Tips welcome. 🙏 #talkappsectome
