Bencher election voting starts tomorrow. For those (like me) who oppose Stop SOP / Full Stop and everything they stand for, the 2019 election is often discussed as a worst case scenario. But the reality is that 2023 could be worse. A thread… 🧵

🚨I wrote about ā€œbrain fogā€ā€”one of the most common & disabling symptoms of long COVID (and many other pre-pandemic conditions), and one of the most misunderstood. Here’s what brain fog actually is, and what it’s like to live with it. 1/ theatlantic.com/health/archi…

It's rare for the victim org of a #cybersecurity breach to openly share technical details (e.g. legal or reputational reasons). In a notable act of transparency, Cisco's threat intelligence team published a detailed writeup of a potential compromise. 🧵 /1 blog.talosintelligence.com/2…

As Cisco noted in their separate event blog: "Every cybersecurity incident is an opportunity to learn, strengthen our resilience, and help the wider security community..." /4 tools.cisco.com/security/cen…

"...Cisco has updated its security products with intelligence gained from observing the bad actor’s techniques...and is sharing further technical details via a Talos blog to help cyber defenders learn from our observations." /end
The @ABoipc published a report this week analyzing nearly 2,000 Alberta #databreach reports over the past decade. Some interesting insights in breach trends: /1 oipc.ab.ca/pipa-breach-repor…

- 37% of breaches were caused by the compromise of an electronic information system (e.g., ransomware). - Organizations took on average between 18 and 54 days to notify affected individuals. /2

- On average, reported breaches took 2-4 weeks to report in 21% of cases, 1-2 months in 24% of cases, and over 2 months in 22% of cases. - Finance was the most impacted sector, followed by healthcare and social assistance. Check out the full report for more. /end
And a quote that nicely captures the criticism for #PIPEDA: "That law is now more than two decades old, and is widely criticized as poorly equipped to deal with the volume, precision or range of data harvesting that has come to underpin whole segments of the modern economy..." /4

"...Major jurisdictions including the European Union and California have overhauled their privacy laws in recent years, pushing back against unchecked data collection and threatening significant fines against bad actors." /end
After obtaining my CIPP/C and noticing a general lack of user-created guidance for the exam, I became determined to create a public resource for others interested in pursuing this credential. Hoping that people find this useful! #CIPPC linkedin.com/pulse/how-prepa…

The Ontario government is addressing growing concern over employer #surveillance by requiring policies on electronic monitoring in the workplace. I wrote about Ontario's latest step towards employee "privacy" laws. #privacy #privacylaw #employmentlaw fasken.com/en/knowledge/2022…

Latest joint Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA) from @cybercentre_ca focuses on the most common vulnerabilities exploited by threat actors in 2021. Many familiar references for those in the #cybersecurity and #incidentresponse field.
The Cyber Centre has joined partners in Australia, UK, NZ and US in publishing a joint #CyberSecurity advisory detailing the top routinely exploited vulnerabilities in 2021: cyber.gc.ca/en/news/joint-cy… @CISAgov @NSAGov @FBI @CyberGovAU @CERTNZ @NCSC
