  1. The Torygraph contacted me last week, but I told them their paper didn't align with my world view...

    They wrote it anyway and I have to say, it's pretty good. Much that I hate the Telegraph, it's also in exactly the right newspaper...

  2. Some great news - thank you to everyone who contributed their hard earned cash!

    (Just a reminder that had the finder/ landowner donated the dress fastener, it would have cost £0 instead of £150,000...)

  3. Will be sold to highest bidder - collection broken up, histories lost & disappearing into private collections, some overseas...

    Issue of legacy collections - where owners or heirs don't want things, will only get more common...

  4. "...as the threat of a public sale loomed."

    AKA the finder/landowner ransomed our shared heritage until we coughed up. 😡

    Again, and again, and again, and again... it's relentless.

  5. A guest blog, which adds more detail to the narrative of detecting in England & Wales.

    Thank you to my anonymous colleague for writing this important piece & for allowing me to host it on the Big Book of Torcs! 😊

  6. Honestly. We all need to read this. The amount of money apparently being spent, which could instead be being invested in our museum services is horrific.

    Next figures from DCMS/PAS are due in the next month or two. How bad will they be?

  7. Tidying up some torc admin before Christmas and have added a DOI and download PDF to the 'Detecting and Torcs' blog.

    Seems it's a bit popular and I know several folks are using it for teaching etc (thank you! 😊)

  8. (14/N) Having familiarized ourselves with categories of adversaries, their main goals and their respective, overall "modus operandi", let's look at the types of threats posed by them.

    Again, it pays to focus on types of threats: We don't want to become mainly alert-triggered, but proactive. There are several frameworks we can borrow ideas from, most notably the LINDDUN framework that is geared toward threats to privacy, and can be extended a bit to cover more ground.

    First, our list of threat types:

    Our definitions of these, for our context:

    Linking

    An adversary can figure out connections and relationships between formerly isolated items of interest.

    Identifiying

    An adversary can link items of interest directly to a natural person.
