Adversary emulation @scythe_io. Public Speaker. USMC vet. Writing about threat intel, detection engineering, and what actually works. Thoughts are my own.
Your EDR sees the process, but does it see where the data went? Tomorrow at 12:00 PM ET on Threat Thursday Live, Trey Bilbrey (@tcraf7) and Tyler Casey walk through protected data exfiltration across LOLBAS abuse, C2 channels, public file hosting, and cloud storage like AWS, plus where defenders actually have a shot at catching it.

The choreography gets the headlines. The entry point is password spraying.
Rob Joyce (@RGB_Lights), Owner at Joyce Cyber and former Cybersecurity Director at the NSA and Trey Bilbrey (@TCraf7) on Iran's hack-and-leak playbook. The mundane stuff is what gets them in. See more of our upcoming live sessions: hubs.ly/Q04jvh4N0#ThreatEmulation
Huge thank you to everyone who came out to @BSidesTampa this weekend.
I had an absolute blast delivering both a hands-on workshop with my good buddy Tyler Casey and the opening keynote! The conversations, questions, and energy from the community were incredible.
Really appreciate everyone who spent part of their weekend volunteering, sharing ideas, and talking shop with us. Looking forward to the next one.

Lateral movement into OT often starts with documentation that's already accessible from the DMZ. At #UniCon2026, Alexander Waitkus (@SouthernCompany) breaks down how adversaries pivot across zones and map your OT environment from the inside.

Seeing a lot of AI in your network?
All traffic provides the ocean for hackers to swim in your network and blend into the waves.
They are there, you’re just not seeing them.
Notepad is the software that got the headlines, but it was AI usage it abused.

I made a cool infographic to describe the PTEF (github.com/scythe-io/purple-… ) and what it provides. Thought it would be nice to put out there for those interested in getting into Purple Teaming. Its also worth giving it gander if your thinking about how you can start updating and testing against the new MITRE ATT&CK update to v19 (attack.mitre.org/resources/u… ).
# PurpleTeaming #Infosec
Patch fast and risk a supply chain compromise.
OR
Patch slow and leave the door open for exploitation.
That’s the reality right now and here’s no clean answer.

The best teams don’t just blindly trust their detections. They test them.
Frequently.
(BTW) My good buddy Tyler did a presentation during @scythe_io#Unicon2026 on this very thing a little while back that is worth checking out: youtu.be/LEKZYbfDtPY?si=-bPZ…

So here’s the real question: Have you tested yours lately?
I'm curious where other teams are leaning..
If you had to pick right now:
What Are you more worried about right now?
A) Supply chain compromise
B) Missed exploitation
C) The magical AI overlords doing all the things..
