Executive Briefing What Happened: A stealthy, persistent backdoor was discovered in over 16,000 Fortinet firewalls. This wasn’t a new vulnerability – it was a case of attackers exploiting a subtle part of the system (language folders) to maintain unauthorized access even after the original vulnerabilities had been patched. What It Means: Devices that were considered “safe” may still be compromised. Attackers had read-only access to sensitive system files via symbolic links placed on the file system – completely bypassing traditional authentication and detection. Even if a device was patched months ago, the attacker could still be in place. Business Risk:…

It’s 4:30 a.m. at a bottling plant, and one last truck is running late. It’s not carrying syrup or cans — it’s delivering carbon dioxide (CO₂), the gas that makes every drink sparkle. When the truck misses its window, production slows, carbonation drops, and schedules start to slip. We usually think of carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas. But in everyday industry, it keeps food cold as dry ice, puts the fizz in drinks, helps clean and stabilize water, and supports metalwork in manufacturing. It even plays a role in hospitals and labs. When supply runs short, production slows, costs…

On paper, it sounds so simple: you prepare for the real thing by running simulations. After all, the same principle applies to countless disciplines: sports, the military, transport, crisis preparedness, and many more. And, of course, to various aspects of cybersecurity, including red teaming, purple teaming, Capture-The-Flag (CTF) contests, and tabletop exercises. Is phishing any different? The answer: it’s not, at least in theory. It all comes down to execution, and we’ve seen several mistakes organizations make when implementing phishing training. Four of the most common, in our experience, are: Making phishing simulations an exercise in tick-box compliance, without putting…

After four months of intensive development, I’m thrilled to announce that SwiftMCP 1.0 is feature-complete and ready for you to use. For those just joining, SwiftMCP is a native Swift implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The goal is to provide a dead-simple way for any developer to make their app, or parts of it, available as a powerful server for AI agents and Large Language Models. You can read the official specification at modelcontextprotocol.io. I did a SwiftMCP 1.0 Feature Speed Run on YouTube, if that’s what you prefer. The Core Idea: Your Documentation is the API Before…

Safety is a moving target in the construction industry. Roughly 100 years ago, safety simply wasn’t a priority in the construction industry—but all of that began to change in the 1970s when OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Admin.) entered the equation and businesses quickly began to realize an unsafe jobsite could potentially cost a lot of money. Worker deaths in America are down from about 38 worker deaths a day in 1970 to 15 a day in 2019—so some progress, but there is still work to be done. But one death is still one too many. In the past decade…

Everybody notices when something big fails—like AWS’s US-EAST-1 region. And fail it did. All sorts of services and sites became inaccessible, and we all knew it was Amazon’s fault. A week later, when I run into a site that’s down, I still say, “Must be some hangover from the AWS outage. Some cache that didn’t get refreshed.” Amazon gets blamed—maybe even rightly—even when it’s not their fault.I’m not writing about fault, though, and I’m also not writing a technical analysis of what happened. There are good places for that online, including AWS’s own summary. What I am writing about is…
