A grounded walkthrough of where real cloud environments fail, including identity assignments, storage exposure, monitoring gaps, and over-permissioning. The post focuses on fixes that materially reduce risk and ties technical issues directly to business impact.

Year-end penetration tests are often driven by budgets or audits rather than risk reduction. Testing earlier in the year gives teams time to remediate findings, influence architecture decisions, and turn security testing into meaningful improvement—not just documentation.

Michael Weimer shares his thoughts around the recent Claude Code Security hype.

MFA helps, but identity sprawl and non human accounts now create the largest and least validated attack surface.

Passing a cybersecurity audit doesn’t mean you’re secure. Learn what audits actually measure, why security degrades afterward, and how ongoing validation closes the gaps attackers exploit.

Every few months, a framework vulnerability detonates headlines and panic follows. React2Shell is the latest. It’s serious if you’re exposed, and irrelevant if you’re not. This post breaks down how to tell the difference, without fear, noise, or guesswork.
