  1. If you are wondering what topics could happen at @OSCo , here one possibility.

    I will bring a bunch of #cybersecurity themed games.

    Including Elevation of Privilege (#EoP), various adaptations like #Cornucopia, Cyber Threat Defender (#CTD), #BackdoorsAndBreaches, and many more.

    If you are interested in trying them out, registration for #osco25 is still open.

    If you know other games, bring them (or let me know 😁)

  2. The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security has an interesting article on #CybeSecurity #ThreatActors (adversaries) and their motivation.

    The article IMHO leaves out at some threat actors (which might not be that relevant for a commercial or critical infrastructure setting)

    • Abusive Partners
    • Stalkers
    • Kids

    while these could be seen as part of insider threats, I believe that their capabilities and opportunities are different from other insiders.
    And they are often overlooked when developing consumer products.
    Think of the problems with #AirTags or the bike theft "problem" with Strava.

    I really like this and are thinking of creating a game around it to raise security awareness (especially within development and designe of systems). #SeriousGames

    Idea is to have a collaborative game where you play through threats against your system. Starting with the Threat Actors, their intend, capabilities and opportunities.
    Going through techniques used (maybe using a subset of #MitreAttack but also common #SocialEngineering techniques).
    And then choosing mitigation and defense options.

    A bit of a mixture between #ElevationOfPrivilege/#EoP, #BackdoorsAndBreaches and #FearlessJourney
