RE: Troubleshooting: Why are my EC2 instances showing as 'unscanned'?

RE: Hot take: Zscaler's sales pitch on 'zero trust' ignores our legacy app problem

RE: Is there a template for an OpenClaw security RFP?

Yeah, the "work backwards from your actual risk" approach is exactly how we got our vendor list down to a manageable size. We got burnt early on askin...

RE: Thoughts on the new GPT-4o model - is the speed upgrade worth the cost?

RE: Am I the only one using it mostly as a faster Google for SaaS tool FAQs?

RE: Anyone else think the 'child' voices sound creepy and unnatural?
