Wait, the UK has come second in #Eurovision 16 times? Were 15 of them in the last century? I mostly remember a lot of “nul points”.

Mostly nonsense, sometimes about security and/or policy. Often innuendo.
Hydraulic platform lift from a gold piano was not on my #Eurovision bingo card, but clearly it should’ve been. First taste of glitter and magic I’ve really seen tonight.
We’re excited to welcome Casey Ellis (@cje.io) and Jen Ellis (@infosecjen.bsky.social) to the board of the Security Research Legal Defense Fund (SRLDF.org), bringing even more expertise, focus, and reach to supporting good faith security research defend against frivolous and unfair prosecution.

@varmaz.is I fondly remember your reaction to Dade’s “Not bad… for a girl” line when we watched Hackers at Derbycon. Followed by @todb.hugesuccess.org’s response to Dade’s “you’re lucky I’m such a gentleman” line. So proud to be part of our team.

Resist tyranny. It doesn't matter if Chris Krebs is our friend or enemy. Sure, he's demonstrated enormous character in the situation, but still, such political retaliation is evil whoever he is.
Such a perfectly pragmatic @erratarob.bsky.social take on the situation. Rob doesn’t expect people to agree with his politics - which is healthy - rather he lays out why this shouldn’t be about political leanings anyway.
Robert Graham@erratarob.bsky.social · 2y agoHere's my blogpost in support of Krebs. It's different enough from those by @stamos.org or @k8em0.bsky.social that it's worth writing, though the conclusion is much the same. cybersect.substack.com/p/i-am-speak...

Exclusive: Peters, Rounds tee up bill to renew expiring cyber threat information sharing law
The law is due to lapse in September, something cyber experts and industry officials say would be a huge loss.

Update on the CVE sitch, CISA has "executed the option period on the contract to ensure there will be no lapse in critical CVE services." Yay! Not sure what it means for the future, but for now, no loss of CVE Program service. Thanks CISA! www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/securit...
CISA extends funding to ensure 'no lapse in critical CVE services'
CISA says the U.S. government has extended funding to ensure no continuity issues with the critical Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) program.

Big props to those behind the new CVE Foundation (www.thecvefoundation.org) - amazing to be able to announce this so quickly after the news about MITRE's funding expiring broke yesterday. I hope private sector & government folks are investigating how they can support the Foundation going forward.

Since security firms have gone quiet, let me say that @thekrebscycle.bsky.social was an exemplary 1st director of CISA & worked super hard to defend & protect the American people. The pineapple on pizza thing is still weird, but otherwise, I’m a fan. I stand with Chris. #defenddemocracy
