Here’s a tough one...

I once asked a team if their RDS backups were encrypted. They assumed AWS handled it automatically.
They were wrong.

A client once left SSH wide open on their servers because “we just needed quick access.”

Within weeks, their logs showed thousands of random connection attempts from around the world.

Uh. don't do that! lol

Leaving SSH wide can mean connection attempts from around the world.
Lock your security groups down to trusted IPs, use a VPN for remote access, and run regular audits. The internet doesn’t need a spare key to your servers.

Start with the least access possible, add only what’s needed, and enforce MFA. IAM Access Analyzer can even show you which permissions are overkill.
Small changes here can stop big headaches later.

It’s way too easy to leave an S3 bucket open to the world.
I’ve seen companies leak thousands of files because of one wrong setting.
Quick fix: block public access by default, scan your buckets, and only open them up if you really mean to.

Still using your AWS root account for everyday stuff?
That’s a disaster waiting to happen.
Set up an admin IAM user, lock the root creds away, and throw MFA on top.
Use the root account once, then leave it alone.

Cloud security can be confusing, but there are a few easy things you can do that can make a big impact.

So easy you can watch this short video and begin implementing.

Most small teams don't have a budget for a devops person. So what do you do?

If you're using AWS or Azure... that's a huge chance your infrastructure or data is at risk.

Don't think so? Actually, it's more common than you'd think. And... it's a lot easier to fix.

Here where you might be at risk.

If you're using AWS or Azure, you're probably doing a few things wrong. Here are the most common mistakes I see.

Google just got BUSTED with a huge fine because they weren't compliant with EU laws.

Is your business safe?

As engineers, we want to write - and work with - good code. Code that's easy to understand and use.

We're masters at our craft and don't want to push bad code. After all, sooner or later, that technical debt is gonna come back and bite you.

But that's not the whole picture...

When they're a 10 out of 10, but write their functions like this:

function foo(bar)
{
}

Tests or nah?

I've worked with a few teams with no testing....

And every single time, development was fast at first. Then we hit a point when we'd have to spend so much time manually testing, shipping new features took forever.

But so many teams don't want to write tests!

Is this just me?

Any one else tired of businesses slapping AI on everything?

I just got an email telling me one of my SaaS subscriptions is increasing the price of all their planes since they're adding some AI features.

Features I never asked for or need....

If you rely on tech in your business, you need to know about Strawleg Software and why it could sink your business overnight.

I worked with a software business once that wasn't doing so hot. They were competitive years ago, but then they started to decline and head towards bankruptcy...

Have you been keeping your eyes on “boring AI?.”

There’s a lot of cool stuff that’s being done with AI…

Video, image, and music generation. Writing code. And way much more.

But here’s the thing: AI doesn’t have to be flashy and exciting to be useful…

Two steps to become a better dev. Step three coming soon...

And if this is my normal, then I can make anything my normal.

In a weird way, it's kinda empowering. If I have to design my life around my illness, then that means I have the choice to design my life they way I want.
