Happy #InternationalEthicalHackersDay! Attackers never ask permission. Ethical hackers do, then break your systems on purpose and hand you a report instead of a breach. Thank you for the adversarial collaboration that stops real attacks. 🤘🏽 #EthicalHacking #InfoSec

Yesterday, Sep 13, was #ProgrammersDay! The 256th day of the year, since 256 is the number of distinct values in an 8-bit byte. 🤓 Every tool we rely on in security, from SIEM to scanner, started as code. To the programmers behind it all, thank you. 🙏🏽 #InfoSec #CyberSecurity

On this day in 1947, a moth stuck in the Harvard Mark II gave us the term "bug". Today, testers still hunt bugs, and some end up in a CVE instead of a logbook. Happy International #TestersDay to everyone who finds the flaw before an attacker does. #InfoSec #CyberSecurity

Happy #WorldWideWebDay! 🌐 35+ years online. The risks grew with it. A few safe browsing habits: 🔗 Verify both URL and padlock (HTTPS). 🛡️ Keep browser updated and only use trusted extensions. 🔑 Use a password manager and activate MFA everywhere. #CyberSecurity #WebSecurity

It's #AIAppreciationDay! Let's celebrate the tech, and make sure to use it safely: 🎯 Use AI for the right tasks, not every task 🧐 Question outputs, don't blindly trust them 🔒 Keep sensitive data out of public LLMs ✅ Humans make the final call, always #CyberSecurity #AI
