Starting the Sequence‑Modeling Experiment

Why I’m Beginning This Project Right now, in October 2024, I’m launching a research project built around a simple but provocative question: Can network behavior be modeled the same way we model language? Not as static events. Not as signatures. But as sequences with structure, grammar, and predictability. Network traffic has patterns. It has transitions. […]

The Panacea Illusion

The new obsession This feels like the beginning of a new religion. ChatGPT arrives, and suddenly everyone believes they’ve found the cure for everything. Every question, every confusion, every gap in understanding, now delegated to a chatbot. The same pattern repeats: a new tool, a new promise, a new exhaustion. People forget that every tool […]

Does AI help us in security operations?

it does but only if it is originated from a intelligent programmer. AI is as smart as the people who did its modeling. an artificial intelligence cannot be more intelligent than its origination. presuming AI will be helping us securing cyberspace is like presuming we will have a accurate Accounting system or flawless GL just […]

Relying on SAST/DAST

Relying on DAST/SAST is like investing in a restaurant where chef needs to be reminded of how to safely handle knife. no surprise that software developers have been dragging computer end-users to current situation when software products are no longer reliable, or they are packed with vulnerabilities. I have mentioned before that I believe the […]

Actually, classic Clouds are more insecure than traditional computing even though it is set on stone for most people even many “IT professionals” that Cloud computing is natively more secure, or by default it is at least more secure […]

Penetration Testing vs. Secure Code Review

What is the best way to make sure a software product is secure?  The easiest way is to roll out to the market and see what is going to happen and hope everything does well…no kidding, that is what most software developers do!  Let’s forget about what majority of software community do and see what […]

are we still coding, or just copy‑pasting?

this generation of developers has access to more tools than any other time in history. stackoverflow, github issues, reddit, dev.to, kite, tabnine, intellicode… the list keeps growing. and with every new “assistant,” we get further away from the one thing that actually matters in software development: originality. but let’s be honest — the problem is […]
