Dan Conn

OK time for an introduction thread! I'm Dan. I work in Platform Security. That's a mix of Application and Cloud Security. I got into cyber security 3 months into my 14 year dev career when I got hacked! Here is me chatting about such things and more! youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Just because you can don’t mean you should. Aka understanding and respecting women’s spaces if you identify as a man in your day to day life. #running #nikeafterdark #safespace #women

Happy UK National Black day ❤️

Drop your fav black and white pic of yourself!! Here two. One was at Global Gathering when I was 21. I actually used to think I was unfit at this point. The second is when I hit 40 after running my first marathon and the closest I got to being as fit as my 20s again 😂 #fitness #motivation

Time flies! From overweight to muscular back to needing to lose a bit more weight after the collarbone breaks. But also in those 6 years I’ve run 5 marathons, 2 in a month last year, and 2 in 3 weeks this year. #running #marathon #training #fitness #transformation

No Ferrari hoodie this week as it’s in the wash but specs are on, Tonkotsu delivery has just arrived and looking forward to watching cars go round COTA in a couple of hours time! Happy Sunday and come on Lewis Hamilton - #forzaferrari #f1 #austingp #usgp

A lovely way to start the day ❤️

Quite a few vulnerabilities this week across the world. Time for #infosecwhisky to have a revival! Chocolate milkshake with a 12yo Aberlour ❤️ Happy Friday #cybersecurity #vulnerability #infosec #cyber

PHP2Shell, BeyondTrust, Cisco Email Gateway, Emudrha, Ivanti Connect Secure, Windows Shell, LiteLLM, FortiMail, NetScaler It’s been a tough Cybersecurity Awareness Month this week. If you have a spare few minutes spend time with your emotional support cat. If you don’t have one, watch this video ❤️

Once again it looks like I haven’t made the cut. I’m sure you’re all equally devastated and wondering how this style icon was missed. #victoriassecretfashionshow #victoriassecretangel

Feeling rather ecstatic at seeing Brighton smash Crystal Palace 5-0, I thought I’d watch the Jets v Pats NFL game with optimism. Sadly the Jets aren’t rewarding the optimism given. Just as they haven’t for the nearly 40 years I’ve followed them for. Consistency at least 😭😂

Although I’ve posted a lot about running and other things, I haven’t posted much about cybersecurity here! This was a talk I did in 2023, The Anatomy of a Hack, at DevOps Days, Geneva two days after running my first marathon, London Marathon. See more here youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Another week in Infosec. Another #infosecwhisky - chocolate milkshake edition

Alas I have been slain. By chilli jam. Just as we entered London. Must be a no go zone.

On Monday, one traffic cone. On Tuesday, two traffic cones. Based on the dataset we can extrapolate that Edinburgh must signify the days of the week by adding traffic cones to the Duke of Wellington statue. That or we should probably ensure we have enough data to form the right conclusions.

Very interesting! Now let’s be sensible about this, there have been no incidents with this. But it’s interesting enough to consider self-replicating worm-like prompt injections. Fusing old threats with new. Nice! alignment.openai.com/misalignment...

Watching the sunset near Sedgefield listening to the Buzz Boys Mayhem Mix of Moby Into The Blue on Renassiance part 2 mixed by John Digweed ❤️

I’ll be listening to this awesome CD for the next 3hrs ❤️ One of my all time faves www.mixcloud.com/Craddock/ren...

Got out of bed, had breakfast and now on my way to Edinburgh! Should get there around 10:30pm and will probably be starving! Anyone know of any good food places open?

OK we’re up and race ready! Cmon Lewis Hamilton and Forza Ferrari! #azerbaijangp #baku #f1

Morning! Honestly didn’t realise how much giving blood yesterday would drain me! Other than eat, watch F1 and F1 Academy I slept through all yesterday. Gonna rest more today. An interesting thing is that a nurse said that you burn 600 calories when you give blood. One to remember next time.

New profile pic. What we reckon?

Morning! It’s been a bit of a week and I haven’t managed any exercise again! So I’ve used the busy adjustment in Runna and extended out my plan by a couple of extra week. I should be resting today and tomorrow anyway because I’m giving blood today. #training #running

Prawn, chilli and vegetable linguine ASMR

Tiger shark diving in Fuvahmulah video is finally done!! Always appreciate the support. I hope you enjoy it and seeing these beautiful girls I had the privilege of getting to know ❤️ youtu.be/Qt_iSrFNexw?...

Morning! The smell of petrichor in the air and the sound and feel of warm summer rain is amazing ❤️ Remember we only need a day of it before we start complaining, after complaining how hot it’s been for months! #petrichor #rain #britishsummer #summer

On Castillo de Castrojeriz, Spain. You can see various Roman roads, churches, convents. I guess you could actually imagine exactly what life was like in the Roman Empire….. if you actually care and like that sort of thing! #romanempire #roman #history #medieval #castrojeriz

Nice to be able to go downstairs and put some tunes on. You can only hear what’s leaking out my headphones but I assure you it’s banging 😂 #vinyl #house #techno #technics #allenandheath

When we consider that he hasn’t even been found guilty of plagiarism, while others that have been of different skin colours and little noise made about them, we need to stop it. goodlawproject.org/s/abb8a1

Bilbao you’ve been amazing! Loved spending time watching the Eclipse with you and finally seeing my first total eclipse was a magical experience I will never forget ❤️ #eclipse #spain #stem #astronomy

Made it to Bilbao! Landed, in the hotel and now looking forward to seeing my first total eclipse with The Beautiful One on Wednesday! Night!

It’s crazy to think this little girl’s dream was to log into Microsoft Authenticator 20 times a day and answer whether she’s “enjoying” outlook and would recommend it to friends Living the dream

It’s crazy to think the little boy’s dream was to reply to various emails and LinkedIn messages that while I’m sure they do indeed have a product that will change the world, I will politely decline the demo. Living the dream

My latest blog on a case that’s just happened in Malaysia involving the compromise of their immigration system. TL/DR - surprising insider threat twist to it. They sold work visas from an old left over quota! www.linkedin.com/posts/lisa-f...
