Check out the new @vertexproject.bsky.social blog "Wi-Fi Network Analysis Using the WiGLE Power-Up" by reign! In use-case 3, she shows off how to geolocate ME using my MiFi device from real data 😁 vertex.link/blogs/wigle/
In this blog, we will explore three wireless access point (WAP) research use cases to illustrate how Synapse and the WiGLE Power-Up can be used to discover, analyze, and track wireless networks of interest.

As I start the year I want to get back to blogging. My biggest question: update and use a static site like I’ve used before or move to Substack. What have been your pros and cons?

VPN advertising is the most common source of security misinformation that I encounter.
By far.
So many people misplace their trust in dubious consumer VPN products.

In breaking news, water is wet, the sky is blue, and owning/pwning telco infrastructure is valuable for intelligence gathering.

This spring I’ll finish my Utah State Masters of Anticipatory Intelligence and I keep considering a doctorate, but I’m struggling to find an innovative national security program that’s open to remote students (much as I’d love to move to DC or Austin). Are there any programs I’m clearly missing?

This thread is a must follow for any natsec/infosec types. It's going to be really interesting to see what comes out of this.
Chinese-flagged cargo ship Yi Peng 3 crossed both submarine cables C-Lion 1 and BSC at times matching when they broke.
She was shadowed by Danish navy for a while during night and is now in Danish Straits leaving Baltics.
No signs of boarding. AIS-caveats apply.
