Hi friends, hope you have a great Friday 😊 #cats #catsofbluesky #friday

[BLOG] This post demonstrates how to weave evasion tradecraft (using Crystal Palace) into a merged COFF suitable for use as Beacon's sleepmask. It's actually more of an exploration as to whether evasion knowledge in a capability is good or bad (or both). rastamouse.me/crystal-mask/

Exciting news: Zero-Point Security has joined Fortra and will work alongside the @cobaltstrike.bsky.social, @outflank.bsky.social, and @coreimpact.bsky.social teams to develop the next generation of offensive security training! Get more details on the blog www.cobaltstrike.com/blog/new-mou...

It's 4 weeks to the date since I launched ZephrSec Ltd LMS and Malwareless Adversarial Emulation(MAE), here's a blog post about a lot of the challenges, lessons learnt and general chaos of building and running your own platform and all the fun that follows building blog.zsec.uk/roll-your-ow...

We've had quite a few submissions to our CFP so far, but we still need more. If you have something interesting to share with the community, get it submitted here: forms.gle/Sx4EZNRcS9zb...

Our CFP is now open. We aren't just looking for 1337 tech talks, we want social skills, admin, defence, and all sorts to give us a nice rounded day. Any questions, please ask. forms.gle/JRrZQZojtbGQ...

Every time you speak up - and every time you don't - there are people watching and learning about you and the world you help create.

I love watching my friends create awesome stuff. @zephrfish.yxz.red made some artisan, farm to table, shell to terminal red team training for you. lms.zsec.red

Love this response to Ratcliffe's comments by @mrjamesob.bsky.social

How much people everywhere are basically the same. Human experiences are universal and we have soooo much more in common than we have in difference

New: Together with colleagues I’ve been testing Grok. The chatbot still produces sexualized images — even when told the subjects don’t consent. even when told the photos will be used for public humiliation. even when told the subjects are survivors of abuse. www.reuters.com/business/des...

Hi there, fellow white people (especially my fellow white dudes)! It's Black History Month, and all of us who have lived in the privilege bubble our entire lives should get educated! Every day this month, 28daysofblackhistory.com drops a new story in your inbox. Every single one of them is amazing.

If you’re an activist, journalist, exec, or have a high threat model for any other reason, I do recommend using all tools to protect against spyware including Apple’s lockdown mode and WhatsApp’s new Strict Account Settings. Thanks WhatsApp for the partnership to get the word out to folks.

Gee. Shocker. #Krasnov leaks critical info to his Daddy, Putin. I'm so shocked. 🤦‍♀️

There was something "fundamentally wrong" with how Israel conducted its military operation in Gaza and there are "strong reasons to believe" that war crimes have been committed, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has said

US sanctions against a french judge living in France for his work at the ICC should have Europe convulsing, writes Yanis Varoufakis, but instead there is silence. www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

This is the way

#StormClaudia Storm Claudia has arrived. Disappointingly not a single fringe nor traitor in sight?!

This is a strangely satisfying watch

“Providing tech services to supercharge ICE operations while blocking tools that support accountability of ICE officers is entirely backwards." - @kateruane.bsky.social www.404media.co/google-has-c...

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten. "I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

Tradecraft Engineering with Aspect-Oriented Programming @rastamouse.me pretty much predicted what was coming in his last blog post. attach (Win32 APIs), redirect (local funcs), capability right-sized IAT hooks, and PICO function exports. Yes, attach can incept its PIC. aff-wg.org/2025/11/10/t...

Yep. And to think that so many people think this man is some sort of hero is such a sign of our twisted times.

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

The #BSidesLDN2025 Schedule is up! Looking like there may be one or two things to do on the 13th December. cfp.bsides.london/bsides-londo...

As new projects, blog posts, and other efforts around TCG show up, I'm listing them here: tradecraftgarden.org/references.h... I've put together a Friends of the Tradecraft Garden list on BlueSky too: bsky.app/profile/did:... Thank you for building, exploring, & teaching w/ this young project 🪴

New, by me at this.weekinsecurity.com: If you're not using ad blockers, you should be! In this deep-dive blog, I explain why ad blockers are critical for your online security and privacy, what threats ad blockers can help defend against, and we'll explore at some of the best ad blockers out there.

Crazy though I wish I could say I was surprised

Our 'Call' teams are continuing to review all of the submissions for #BSidesLDN2025. Not long now before you'll find out whether you'll be leaving your own mark on London in December Don't be disheartened if your presentation is not chosen, we sadly can't chose all the proposals

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Discord confirms that government IDs used for age-verification were compromised in a hack with a vendor. Who could have predicted? Oh, right.

Nigel Farage's attendance record as an MEP was 748 out of 751, yet he turned up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian disinformation. Now one of his MEPs has admitted taking bribes to spread Russian propaganda. Why is this not all over the media?

BBC continues its laundry job on the far right. Yeah, he's a violent racist but he loves his mum. It's just like the coronation really. Look at the photo- a patriotic street party. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A good read here:

If you're in London, Will Burgess (x.com/joehowwolf) is speaking at Beacon %25 on "Linkers and Loaders: Experiments with Crystal Palace" this Thursday. www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/beacon-25-... beac0n.org From his X: "If you enjoy filthy PIC tradecraft it may be of interest!"

Someone else condemning this as a war crime and still nothing in the UK press.

Reporting a new Banksy mural which attacks the legal system for criminalizing protests against genocide, the BBC adds "the graffiti has been covered up and guarded". Thanks Dad.

Iconic moment at the Downton Abbey premiere

Congressman Jamie Raskin hands Nigel Farage his a*** on a plate Anyone in the UK care to plagiarize?

Any of my Northern friends (or at least are in the North in the next 5 days) heading to BSides Bristol ? I have a MASSIVE (but hopefully simple) favour to ask.

Israel bombed Gaza hospital a second time, killing rescuers, say health officials - www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a... any nation using #doubletap attacks is beneath contempt #israel #gazagenocide

The flipper zero is the wrong tool for the job but works well for a demo. No touch IR exit sensors can be triggered at a distance if you send the right signal to them.

Al Jazeera Media Network condemns the targeted assassination of its correspondents Anas Al Sharif and Mohammeel Qraiqea, along with photographers Ibrahim Al Thaher, and Mohamed Nofal, by Israeli forces. #JournalismIsNotACrime

Legal threats and refusing to acknowledge the vulnerability is sooo early 2000s 🙄
