100% agree. The sprint to be “first and fastest” results in security principles being thrown out of the window.

💯agree with Mr Carney. I love his remarks and reference to President Václav Havel about “signs in the windows”

@stephenrobles.com have you experienced success with “Screen unknown callers”? I had to switch it off as it asked my wife for her reason for calling 😂. In fact it asked every caller despite many being in my contact list.

Thanks so much for doing this. Why is this not fully explained in schools? Is there a reason behind this lack of preparation for life?

“Security theatre” - Security theater refers to security measures that make people feel more secure without doing anything to actually improve their security. — Bruce Schneier (www.schneier.com/essays/archi...)

This hotel door security chain fits that definition perfectly.

Love my new VW ID.3. Small enough to fit narrow UK roads and car parks, yet nimble and comfortable to drive.

@martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com Hi, seems Facebook is again profiteering from fraudulent advertisement. This time you are allegedly being arrested! Link: l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http...

@stephenrobles.com Apple stopped working on fixing issue in Find My in family - I am not able to set notification in Find My for my daughter when is leaves a location when is not at a given location (school). I sent paper letter to Federighi, got some contact but it died down. Worth a discussion?

In my previous article, I wrote about the inherent incompatibility of Active Directory with modern enterprise security architectures and cloud strategies. Another design vulnerability was presented at BlackHat USA on 6th August 2025.

Why ask for age? Instead ask for month and year of birth.

read the fine print of your insurance policies; the most important section is called “Exclusions”. It is usually cheaper to put MFA in than later not being paid the insurance claim.

These were trying to hide, unsuccessfully I might add, next to a mountain trail.

Personally, I am of opinion that was the default starting point for security hardening should be the vendor guidance; in this case Microsoft; who provide working and tested hardening settings.

Hey there! I was wondering if potholes are similar to IT issues if we pay road contractors per pothole / IT issue? This approach doesn’t drives improvements. After all, contractors are motivated to fix as many potholes as possible, rather than focusing on long-term quality. What do you think?
