This case led me to be the 1st industry analyst to clearly document, model, and explain how Iran developed the lock-and-leak information operations model to exploit eCrime ransomware and leak trends to conduct disruptive attacks using crappy personas—something they eventually did to ALL OF ALBANIA.

Nothing like providing opportunities to your team and watching them absolutely kill it!

The growth is incredible to witness every time.

I missed this story by @arielabergriger.bsky.social on the importance of AM Radio even today in @technologyreview.com.

It is beautifully illustrated and the point is important: we're letting a critical source of emergency management fade away and we don't have anything to fully replace it.
Why we still need AM radio
The most reliable way to keep us informed in times of disaster is being threatened.

Just saw an updated picture of my childhood home. The owners ripped out the tree in the front yard.

No more tire swing.
No more Magnolias all over the ground.
No more tree house.

It feels like a piece of my childhood memory was just cut out.
