I lead MITRE ATT&CK. Something something SCUBA diving, cyber. If it’s not about ATT&CK, I speak only for me. He/him.

Hey y'all, I know times are really tough right now especially for people in America. I want you to know that you can do the following things without feeling shame:
> Soeak to a therapist
> Hire house cleaners especially if you're too depressed to clean
> Ask for help, either emotional or financial.

We're now in the final stretch for ATT&CK v17 as our Enterprise, Mobile, ICS, Defensive, and CTI teams start making final decisions on what content is going to make the cut. Watch this space in April, and check out what's new.

Always love speakers who repeat the question before answering when the asker was off mic.

Pro conference tip. If there’s a question mic and especially if there’s a virtual audience don’t be the jerk who says “I can just shout” during Q&A. You’re being disrespectful of people who are hard of hearing, the remote audience, and usually the people in the room all at the same time.

Happy Friday! Headed to the last ever #shmoocon in two weeks? Now would be a great time to start studying for ham radio exams. Come join us Saturday of the con and get access to tons of RF frequencies without some pricy spectrum auction.

Patrick Wardle is kicking off Objective by the Sea 7.0 from Maui. Looking forward to what’s always been a terrific conference and community (location isn’t bad too). Just wish the Linux security community had something similar. #OBTS

A ton of folks are still using the old server and are going to be sad December 18th when it's shut down for good and their apps/scrips break.

Moving to TAXII 2.1/STIX 2.1 is more than just a URL change, so the time to get started is yesterday. Please help us spread the word that the end is nigh.
