I just got a legitimate email from my employer regarding a recent benefits change that rolled out across the company. That email: Came from a third party Had an urgent call to action "Accept TODAY or forfeit!" Linked to a foot-long url that was NOT the email domain. I just...

Currently going through the "Jr Pentester" set of modules at @tryhackme and learning a ton. But I 100% breezed through the networking module. It's a real confidence booster to realize you knew more than you thought you did.

There are no words for how dystopian this is.
