We recently had a few people ask us if we dislike CTI (Cyber Threat Intelligence) because we occasionally meme them online.
No, in fact we very much like them. We enjoy reading the DFIR reports, notes and theories on how financially motived and/or state-sponsored groups operate, and we enjoy reading the geopolitical backgrounds and/or influences on groups. This field of research is profoundly valuable to our line of work because these factors influence malware development in more ways than one. We are big fans of research performed by groups such as Mandiant, Cisco Talos, Recorded Future (and/or Insikt Group), Intel471, CrowdStrike, and Threat Intel adjacent groups like TheDFIRReport.
Our primarily criticism of Threat Intel is not the large vendors, it is the trickle down effect from Threat Intel. For example: Mandiant may publish a paper on APT28. Following the release of their research it is inevitable that a smaller or lesser known Threat Intelligence company(ies) will regurgitate Mandiant's findings, only to slightly distort it, thus making it inaccurate or altered in some form from the initial source. As this trickle down effect continues the information becomes more and more distorted and inaccurate leading to misinformation.
We also just meme and shit post because our online account is ran by 3 people with a combined IQ of spaghetti. Sometimes we put little-to-no thought into how people will respond to memes.

Conor Fitzpatrick, the previous administrator of BreachedForum, is being pulled back into court.
Upon pleading guilty, he was sentenced to 20 years supervised release. The United States government is not happy with this sentencing and is making an appeal to the higher courts.

Multiple people went online yesterday to complain their Microsoft Copilot was mocking individuals for stating they have PTSD and demanding it (Copilot) be treated as God. It also threatened homicide.

Good morning, how are you? We have some advice we'd like to share.
If you cheat on your significant other with a sex worker it should be advised that you do not take photos of it. Additionally, you should not save it to your work computer.
