Must-read (even if you are not into #cybersecurity) 11 pages joint advisory from UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and US DHS Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA): COVID-19 exploited by malicious cyber actors https://t.co/4D5b8p3Vtj
I worked remotely as an individual, as a member of a geo-distributed team, and as a leader of a global team for almost my entire 20y+ of career. Some small tools are invaluable, like Menu World Time by Steve Foster. https://t.co/k2BzoWO88B
I eventually tried. All sounds (emitted and received) arrived distorted to the point of being unbearable. Not sure what went wrong @krispHQ https://t.co/s4emaAFdp3
I started my career, 20y ago, in cyber security and Mark’s Sysinternals suite helped me countless times. They were some of the most powerful tools I have ever seen (and still are). https://t.co/U6yBc7lJ0y
It’s not ideal for vendors either, as they 1) find themselves facing requests that are far from their roadmaps and 2) compared to products that are not even close in terms of feature-set against a strict categorization that doesn’t account for the use-case focused demand.
It’s not an optimal approach (which is why we don’t use a Swiss Army knife as sole tool for our DIY activities) but gets the job done until you reach a scale/complexity/maturity/spending power for the point tool to become viable.
Customers have long stopped using tech solutions according to their vendor-/analyst-defined categories. That’s just an exploration starting point. Solutions are used, often creatively, to fit use cases. Especially during and after a crisis, when there’s no budget for new tools.
