Hello /m/cybersecurity folks! Wanted to get a pulse check on those who use this particular community. I mod both here at Fedia as well as at infosec.pub for /cybersecurity. I run a few weekly threads (e.g. Mentorship Monday) at infosec.pub and have tried to run those same weekly threads here but they get barely any traction, whether that be because they are redundant with infosec.pub or because people here are just not that active yet. For those who main Kbin/Fedia, is there anything you’d like to see that I can help with (weekly threads, community engagement style posts, etc…)? For those who sub here and at infosec.pub, is there anything Kbin adds that you feel is worth pointing out?

Unless some folks come out in favor of keeping the weekly threads here at Fedia, I will stop them and focus on having those threads over at infosec.pub.

Cheers and happy threadiversing!

Hey /m/cybersecurity! If you think this post is “spammy” or too “promotion-ey” feel free to downvote it into oblivion and I’ll zap it into dust =).

 

Hey everyone! My name is Mike and I write about #infosec, #tech and other things at https://shellsharks.com. I'm currently running an event this week I refer to as >Shark Week (https://shellsharks.com/sharkweek), which is essentially just me posting some sort of "content" each day for the entire week, coinciding with actual shark week (https://www.discovery.com/shark-week) on Discovery.

Appreciate a follow, boost and/or feedback on the site/posts. Thanks so much! 🦈🦈🦈

Kicking off >Shark Week, I wanted to share everywhere I am these days. I'll admit I am most active on Mastodon but like to maintain some form of presence other places. So connect with me wherever or everywhere!

Thanks again!

Yep, this has been added!

 

Hey Kbin-folk, I’ve recently published my take on the “threadiverse” in the form of a quasi-guide but with some other commentary. Appreciate any feedback, good or bad!

Anyone familiar/have experience with conducting a Crown Jewels Analysis (CJA)? MITRE’s SEG (“Systems Engineering Guide”) has a process for doing this (page 167) but there are certainly other methodologies. Am working on something like this so any anecdotes would be cool to hear about!

Good idea! I like the idea of a Training-related weekly thread. I found two of the most common threads on Reddit were either training/cert-related or "getting into infosec"-related.

 

Now here’s two tools I wish I was more experienced with - Semgrep and Jupyter. Beyond this cool article from NCC, I’m interested to hear from anyone who uses either one of these tools. How did you get started, what do you do with them, etc…

This is for anyone who browses or participates within /m/cybersecurity whether Fedia-native or via elsewhere in the Fediverse (as there are ways to interact with this community without being a Fedia account holder or /m/cybersecurity magazine subscriber).

 

Hey Fedia-folk of /m/cybersecurity! Wanted to get a quick pulse-check and collect some thoughts from the community here regarding their usage both current and future. I'll

  1. Would anyone like to see weekly threads created for things like #mentorshipmonday? If so, let me know what kind of weekly threads you all would find useful/interesting.
  2. There are a few infosec/cyber-related communities that have popped up both here on Fedia and elsewhere (e.g. kbin.social, infosec.pub, etc...). Some are more niche, while others similarly general as this community. What is everyone's thoughts in terms of where they plan to spend their time? I want to be mindful of the fracturing and try to build something here that people find useful.
  3. Do you think the "threadiverse" (kbin, Lemmy, etc...) is a viable alternative to Reddit for you? (Assuming you were on reddit originally).
  4. If you have any other thoughts or suggestions for the community please share them here as well! Thanks!

Yeah I too have obsidian and moved some things in there. Cool!

Anyone have a strategy/tool they have found useful for aggregating these cheat sheets and then searching across them in-practice? For a while I've been compiling my own plaintext-based cheat sheets in flat files in a single dir and then searching across them using atom - copying/pasting out of there.

Jeez. The speed at which I've gone from "man it sucks that Apollo is shutting down but I still really enjoy Reddit and will suffer the first-party client" to "wow, Reddit is really trying to destroy their service and it's probably best I don't invest any more time there" is insane... going to draft up some thoughts and a probable farewell message for my frequented subs and followers there. End of an era.
