What was great yesterday is merely good enough today. Need to keep learning and improving.

Who knows how many vulnerability the person who thought adding none as an algo to the spec was a good idea is responsible for.

LLMs are exposing how CTFs are a poor test for real world security skills. A CTF often has 1 entry point and stacked defenses with 1 failure by design. Real world solutions have many entry points and determining which is more viable to investigate is the important skill.

Wouldn't be surprised if something like this became de-facto use for internal code generation usage when working with large code bases. github.com/HazyResearch/c…

Too many people in infosec have never built anything for production themselves. How can you expect to change other people's behavior to be more secure if you fundamentally do not understand their day-to-day challenges.

This is the way to design a good product. It is orders of magnitude easier if you are interested in the problem space intrinsically.

most big companies are value preservation engines, not value creation engines. this makes them an awful environment for people who want to build

This is why you should build a lot of things custom. If you stick to known paths you will never know why the other paths may not have been chosen. Best case scenario you learn a novel better way, worst case scenario your understanding of the problem space grew.

Another day, another way to get NetNTLM handshake disclosure. Do yourself a favor, go to Kerberos and try to remove/reduce netntlm from your network.

The overlap in logic/approach between the Adam optimizer and client-side movement prediction in a online game is both surprising yet makes a lot of sense.

The number of people pretending to be AI experts who don't know the basics of neural networks is astounding.

The overlap between getting good at video games and getting good at arbitrary things is surprisingly high. Just need to get past your own ego, fail a million times until you succeed. Optimizing for learning rate is the true differentiator long term.

Wild how good 3blue1brown videos are. In ~3 hours i have a better understanding of linear algebra than I did in a whole course in semester. Always look for the best teachers, they can shortcut your learning time by 10x.

If you aren't optimizing your tooling consistently and obsessively, you will fall behind. This applies to any/all fields.

Many pentesters specialize in 1 route (app/network/physical/SE). Expertise takes time to build, but comfort and lack of desire to grow tend to set in too often. Break your limits, keep learning.

You would think by now the big AI labs would have generated different tags for trusted/untrusted inputs to get rid of prompt injection. Building synthethic data set from real ones for this would be trivial and could be used to RL that behavior away.
