The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the National Security Agency (NSA) have released guidance for hardening the security of virtual private network (VPN) solutions. I'm sure the guidance also works against security agencies?

The founder of one of Russia’s largest cybersecurity companies has been arrested on suspicion of state treason and will be held in a notorious prison run by the security services for the next two months, a Moscow court said on Wednesday.
The charges against Ilya Sachkov, founder of Group-IB, are classified and details of them were not immediately clear. State-run news agency Tass cited an anonymous source who said Sachkov denied passing on secret information to foreign intelligence services.
Group-IB, which specializes in preventing cybercrime and ransomware, confirmed that law enforcement raided its officers yesterday but said it did not know the reason for Sachkov’s arrest.
How do you say "Tell us that spreading ransomware is government policy without saying that 'spreading ransomware is government policy'" in Russian?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

"FoggyWeb is stored in the encrypted file Windows.Data.TimeZones.zh-PH.pri, while the malicious file version.dll can be described as its loader." See?! I told you time zones were evil!
Lovely in-depth writeup on the Microsoft article linked, but I don't see the words "fix" or "solution" anywhere in it.

Why does every developer think they are writing perfectly understandable code? Why is that same developer unable to decipher someone else’s code, lest maintain it? It's not sloppy, it's 'comfortably arranged'
Right, "Computer scientist" code isn't sloppy. riiiiiiight

True. It was just the pretense of the title that was sticking on me.

She does, but the points have little to do with what is usually taught as computer science.

True that. Because if you're a serious computer scientist, you only talk about writing code!
