Excited to be giving this #identiverse talk this morning! Enterprise Tech Debt in identity stacks can hold back your teams ability to innovate… but it doesn’t have to.

I will say this: the current administration is not sneaky. They are very transparent (though that feels like the wrong word) about what they plan to do.
It's INCONCEIVABLE to me how ANYONE in power is caught by surprise by anything this Reich is doing. How ANY department isn't "hardening" against an assault THEY'RE ANNOUNCING.

THEY'RE TELLING US WHAT COMES NEXT, FFS!!!!!

Loved this quote from @metlstorm.risky.biz in ep 786:
“Identity: that’s hard.”
Dang right it is! The same ep highlights the weaknesses of Oracle (neé Sun, some is neé Waveset) IDM solutions that are likely the reason Oracle Cloud got breached.

(as seen on @riskybusiness.bsky.social Risky Bulletin): Microsoft has provided the first technical deep dive on the new Windows 11 Administrator Protection feature. Lots to digest here. Not yet sure how the PAM (esp EPM) vendors will integrate with this: techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/microso...

I've been doing a lot of work for one of my clients around EO14117 and the associated Final Rule (which has the super clear title: "Provisions Pertaining to Preventing Access to U.S. Sensitive Personal Data and Government-Related Data by Countries of Concern or Covered Persons"). 🧵1/2

Have to share how much I am loving Vimcal (www.vimcal.com). I deal with a LOT of calendars and Vimcal has been a saving grace in keeping me out of the oops-I-missed-a-meeting hot water. Great solution, especially for keyboard-driven calendar warriors.

Why is it that clicking a link in a newsletter (including the “oops we made it too long, click here if the email is clipped”) results in you going to a webpage where there inevitably is a modal popover prompting you to… subscribe to the self same newsletter that brought you to that page?

I’m a little sad about not being at BH/Defcon/HSC this year. I’ll miss seeing friends and, of course, miss that #badgelife and helping out my friends at @andnxor.bsky.social — but it was time to take a year off and I’ll be camping at the most beautiful Scout Camp in the world this weekend instead 🏕️⚜️

Wherever I’ve lived or worked, I’ve always sought places that have long site lines.It’s always been important to me.Tig’s podcast gave me a “why” — the big space makes me put my immediate problems into the right frame: they’re not that big.
