So #DEFCON is a ”US native born persons with no hint of international connections only” event now for actual physical presence? Or do the goons, bless them, help you against ICE?

Puts a whole new ”frisson” on ”Spot the Fed”, I suppose - win, get a teesh; lose, get a paid vacation to South America.

Jokes aside, does *any* foreigners go to US convs like #DEFCON, #BlackHat, #RSAC or #SANS anymore? I sure af wouldn’t right now, and I’m as male, white, middle+aged, fat, priviliged and downright boring as they come.

I had the opportunity to sit down with former DTer, Joe Slowik at #RSAC to talk about suspicious domains.

Here are some of the key takeaways from our conversation:

🔹 Joe shared how attackers are playing the long game—like in the SolarWinds attack, where a fake AWS domain sat dormant for nearly a decade.
🔹 From aged domains to hijacked home routers, adversaries are evolving. And groups like Volt Typhoon are targeting U.S. critical infrastructure with chilling precision.
🔹 It’s time to rethink defense—beyond tools, toward resilient architecture and even manual fallbacks.
