Legacy isn't your title or salary. It's the work you keep doing when no one applauds. My contribution: pushing protective DNS as a baseline, not an optional extra. Blocks phishing, malware, C2, and deploys in minutes. Are you building things people can still use when you're gone?

Should you hire a GTM Engineer? No. Become one. Part ops, part marketer, a touch of sales, they turn boring work into automation. Start small: connect your inbox to n8n, ask for summaries, then add a node called DELETE GARBAGE EMAILS. What boring task will you automate?

Rent malware kits with dashboards, updates & support. Even refunds if caught.
For a few hundred bucks, anyone with a grudge can launch pro-level attacks no coding needed.
44% spike in attacks last year. 57% of company hacks via MaaS.

Qantas hit by a cyberattack not on their network, but a vendor’s contact-center platform. 6 million customer records exposed.

Outsourcing = extended attack surface. Your vendor’s weak link = your risk.

Silent breaches like this are a wake-up call.
