Overwhelmed security pros, unhappy and struggling, face a single havoc-wreaking hacker.

Who do you think is going to be the winner, the hacker or the security practitioner?

Controversial // Security Myths // October 9, 2024

Who do you think is going to be the winner, the hacker or the security practitioner? This question is in the same ballpark as: Do we need more cybersecurity professionals who are getting more and more certifications? Then why are we just getting weaker compared to the hacker’s community? For example, is the ability to […]

Starting the Sequence‑Modeling Experiment

Artificial Intelligence // Coding // Machine Learning // Security Tools // October 4, 2024

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 Real Deal: Beyond the Paper Certificates

What really matters // July 1, 2024

If you want to be a professional in this field, a real security pro, a genuine ethical hacker, or someone who actually moves the needle for a company, you need to stop chasing the fake stuff. I am not talking about a mountain of useless certifications. I am not talking about shiny academic degrees that […]

Who is truly the biggest spammer: the bad actors or those who don’t appear to be bad actors?

The Irony of Security Companies Flooding Inboxes with Spam

Controversial // Cybersecurity // Industry Critique // October 24, 2023

It is not a secret that many companies use the phrase “email marketing” to describe their spamming behavior. Real email marketing is about sending useful, relevant messages to people who want to hear from you. But standard email marketing is not the point of this article.What I have noticed over time is something far more […]

Doctoring Data by Dr. Malcolm Kendrick

Doctoring Data: How to sort out medical advice from medical nonsense

Controversial // Data // August 27, 2023

That’s the name of a book: *Doctoring Data* by Dr. Malcolm Kendrick. It teaches you how to spot misleading medical claims and understand the tricks used in health research and media. But you could easily generalize it to all kinds of data. The mindset is there — the idea — and you can definitely see […]

AI Is Like an Operating System

Artificial Intelligence // Machine Learning // April 9, 2023

First of all, I need to clarify something. Like many people, I use the term AI all the time. But what I’m really referring to is machine learning. Machines that learn. And the more I think about it, the more I believe machine learning belongs in the same category as operating systems, web browsers, and […]

The Bitterness of Social Media

Censorship & Free Speech // Controversial // Cybersecurity // Privacy // Social Media // Technology // February 10, 2023

Is social media really a platform to deliver your message to your audience? I hope the answer is yes. That is what we have been told. You create an account, build an audience, post your thoughts, and the platform helps your message reach the people who are interested in it. The reality is different! Social […]

The Panacea Illusion

Artificial Intelligence // Controversial // Privacy // Software Security // Technology // December 24, 2022

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 […]

The real problem with management is not the people. It is the visibility!

IT Management // Leadership // December 4, 2022

Most management failures come back to one thing: the manager does not know what resources they actually have, and they have no technique for finding out. So they guess. They pick a deadline because of pressure from above, or because it sounds reasonable in a meeting room, or because they simply do not know what […]

Why most managers are not actually managing

Controversial // IT Management // Leadership // What really matters // March 5, 2022

There is a question that has been on my mind for a long time. Why is most management today so ineffective? Why do the things they say sound more like a wish list than a plan? I am not talking about every manager in every industry. I have seen exceptions. But the pattern I have […]

The Simplicity Behind Real Security

Controversial // Cyberspace // Security Myths // Security Solutions // Security Tools // February 8, 2022

The Industry Loves Complexity Cyber security has a strange habit. Every year, more layers. More dashboards. More integrations. More moving parts…and somehow, more insecurity. Decades of experience showed me something simple: Complex solutions either fail, or create new attack surface while pretending to reduce it. That is the irony of modern security. We secure complexity […]
