Interesting to note this would be a parallel response to the US and Israel’s destructive #Stuxnet worm of 2010 - deployed via USB instead of bombing Natanz
As a #CyberSecurity engineer who defends parts of US critical infrastructure, I am preparing for attacks from Iran this week

Took #cellular readings at today’s #WorcesterPolice protest and subsequent march ✅
Recorded a couple concerning #IMSI ‘identity requests’ - but after further review, I don’t think they came from #surveillance gear. Still, happy to share the #PCAP and #QMDL logs with anyone who wants to review 🤓

If ICE can take her, then they can take you
Due Process is not optional. It protects us ALL from abuse of power. We need to stand up and tell the #Worcester city government to not support ICE’s illegal kidnappings

I got into #cybersecurity to protect people
I like to be respectful of all views and I hate to get political
… but I’ve learned that sometimes who gets protected is inherently political. Make no mistake: This is an attack on #FreedomOfSpeech and #DueProcess. Exercise those rights now or lose them

Thank you @harvard.edu!
@bostonu.bsky.social, can you do the same please? The resource guide you sent to us students the other day really did not inspire confidence…

Spent some time with #Wireshark - comparing captured traffic to baselines and cross-referencing #PCAPs with a friend who’s #Rayhunter was on the other side of the crowd
Happy to report that we’ve found no evidence of #Stingray #IMSIcatcher devices (yet)

Will double-check by comparing network logs to baseline metrics (stay tuned), but I don’t see evidence of #CellularSpying on Boston protestors today

Shame of you for recording video @police.boston.gov
There are VULNERABLE people at this demonstration who are actively being targeted by the regime. Don’t aid with #surveilling them!

Used #Rayhunter to scan #BostonCommons (site of this Saturday’s #HandsOffMassachusetts protest)
Confirmed - as a BASELINE - that there are NO #stingray devices already in the area
🚫🕵️
We’ll see if any such #CellularSurveillance pops-up on April 5th. Will be sure to share #PCAPs if so

Great advice! Some of my most meaningful roles came from more-general tech jobs that I had - and then I just started offering to help them with security problems

Insightful #RingCamera security advice from @mguariglia.bsky.social
Fun fact I just learned: You can DEACTIVATE microphone recordings via the #Ring app
Device Settings >> Privacy Settings >> Audio Streaming and Recording (switch this OFF)
