Today marks #InternationalWomensDay, a time to consider progress, harness the power of collective action & stand in solidarity. While many celebrate, we also hold space for those facing conflict, injustice & the ongoing struggle for equality👉️bit.ly/IWD2026 #GiveToGain #IWD2026

This story is actually insane:
• dude drops $2000 on a DJI robot vacuum like a lunatic
• refuses to use the normal app like a peasant
• Sammy Azdoufal fires up Claude to crack the API so he can drive it with an xbox controller
• Claude delivers the goods
• pulls an auth token from their servers, connects successfully
• except the system thinks he controls 7000 vacuums
• checks again
• yep, seven thousand
• DJI built authentication with zero device ownership verification
• any valid token works for any unit on the planet
• Sammy now has eyes inside homes across 24 countries
• live vacuum camera feeds everywhere
• full floor plans from the mapping data
• some guy in germany eating cereal at 3am, unaware his roomba is snitching
• one API call away from being the most informed burglar in history
• all he wanted was to steer his vacuum with a joystick
• does the right thing and reports it
• DJI fixes it in two days
• back to normal life with his stupidly expensive floor cleaner
• IoT companies stay undefeated at shipping garbage security

Cloudflare uses lava lamps for their encryption.
No, I am not kidding.
In their San Francisco office, Cloudflare has a wall filled with lava lamps with cameras pointed at them 24/7. At random intervals, a picture is taken, and that image is sent to the Cloudflare servers.
That is then turned into a series of numbers that is then turned into an encryption key.
You're probably wondering "Why not just have a computer do it." Well, computers are actually really bad at making things random.
They follow patterns, and those patterns are easy for hackers to figure out. Thus making Cloudflare susceptible.
So the solution is the real world.
Nature is random. Wild, dare I say.
If these giant tech companies see the value in the wild and natural and random, you should too. ;)

Few people realize the risks that may lurk behind the facade of a nifty-looking QR code, an element of everyday customer journeys. So it's time to rethink the blind trust and add a little bit of caution to the mix. secureworld.io/industry-news…

Happy AIpril Fools! Avoid getting scammed by AI Voice Cloning by coming up with a secret safe word with friends and family. If you get a call from someone who sounds familiar looking for money or sensitive info, but they don’t know the safe word, chances are it’s an AI scam! hubs.la/Q03f60_T0

Thank you @SecureWorld for inviting #FBI Boston to speak to #cybersecurity leaders across the region about the importance of building relationships with the #FBI and law enforcement before a cyber incident occurs, & the importance of reporting a compromise to us when it does.

Could a #Microsoft Breakthrough #QuantumChip (#Majorana1) that harnesses a rare state of #Matter set the path to #QuantumSupremacy?
The new type of #Qubit, called a "#TopologicalQubit," is stable, smaller, less power-draining and more scalable than a qubit made from a superconducting metal.
The fabrication of this QPU was only possible after researchers, for the first time, used the architecture to definitively observe & control,
an #Enigmatic-#SubatomicParticle with special properties called the "#MajoranaFermion," or "#MajoranaZeroMode" (MZM), theorized by mathematician #EttoreMajorana in 1937.
#Majorana's theory proposed that a #Particle could be its own #AntiParticle & may actually coexist rather than only annihalating each other.
This could pave the way for a #Processor with a #MillionQubits within years.

“I don’t think there is any legal mechanism for American law enforcement or intelligence agencies to demand that Apple build a back door for Americans’ encrypted backups” as the U.K. is demanding, EFF’s Andrew Crocker told @USAToday.
