From #target, #homedepot, to #experian and more, they all had short-term hits on their stock. But over the long-term, the #data #breach had very little effect. Wall Street is quite forgiving of data breaches. #IDGTECHtalk #CyberSecurityAwarenessMonth

I like regex because I get the opportunity to re-learn how to write it every single time the opportunity presents itself. Because I never remember how regex works. Ever.

A5: Also, run #container processes with the least privilege possible. Most Docker and Kubernetes subprocesses don’t need, nor should they be run as root. Isolate applications from each other & the host, ensure good #infosec. #IDGTECHtalk
