I was reminded of this today for no particular reason ;) James Mickens’ “Mossad/not-Mossad Duality” in threat models
If you're planning to be in Las Vegas next week and want to reconnect, let me know! Hope to see you there.
@ImposeCost I’ve heard this referred to as “malicious compliance”
@4n6ir Back on the day I actually had a campaign get caught using that technique lol

Praetorian is hiring for another 3 red teamers at the lead+ level of experience. Have to be lead or above for this hiring round, no junior or senior for the red team until next quarter, but there are other open positions on our website. We filled 29 reqs in Q1 and are scaling quickly but sensibly. Our clients have mature environments, you won’t have an easy life; but if you like to be challenged, this is a good place for you. **I am slow in DMs, best apply via our website but drop me a note
@gdead Had that happen while boarding a plane. I’m surprised they let me stay on the flight lol

Very cool job opportunity at @GreyNoiseIO for technical people who love to lie- especially to attackers boards.greenhouse.io/greynoiseintel…
@andrewshumate Besides me? lol yeah a few other folks definitely looked like the walking dead
Dave Bell retweeted
Which sounds more realistic? “If we do a few strategic things we kneecap the attackers” “We can do all the things everywhere all at once, 365x24 forever.” It seems like focusing our limited resources where it matters would be better. 3

My friend Krypt3ia is still searching for a remote CTI role after being caught in the layoff cycle. He's got years of solid experience and technical chops - including LLM training. If you've got leads, ping me and I can pass them along or share his resume. RT for reach pls.
I always love paying the bill for search and rescue insurance…makes me feel like I’m planning an antarctic expedition or something
It’s crazy how amazing you feel crossing the finish line…and then completely fall apart 30 seconds later

First, I want to compliment @Microsoft for being forthright with details. Some of the problems I see in this report, I SEE EVERYWHERE due to VULNERABLE DEFAULTS. Let's start with creating malicious OAuth applications. By default, ANY USER can create app registrations and consent to Graph permissions as well as sharing 3rd party company data. In tenants where this is hardened, ability to create app registrations require Application Administrator or Cloud-Application Administrator and admins must consent to permissions used by the application whether local or from another tenant.
