Some AI security capabilities don't sit cleanly on the attacker or defender side. Automated red teaming, prompt injection, AI attacking AI, poisoned models — the stuff that doesn't fit the tidy framing.

AI has made attackers faster and more capable. It's also given defenders some of the most useful tools we've had in years. Here's where it actually helps — and where the hype gets ahead of the reality.

AI has handed attackers a significant upgrade — better phishing, automated reconnaissance, polymorphic malware, and a dramatically lower skill floor. Here's what that actually looks like in practice.

AI is changing security faster than most of us can comfortably track. This is the start of a series where I try to think through what that actually means — honestly, practically, and without the hype.

AI is reshaping cybersecurity from both sides of the battle line — as a weapon in attackers' hands and a force multiplier for defenders. Here's what it means, why it matters, and how to not get left behind.

Albert Camus spent his career grappling with life's fundamental meaninglessness. He never worked in IT, but if he had, patch management would have finished him off.

A step-by-step guide to automating Ubuntu VM updates and Docker Compose container pulls in a self-hosted homelab using Gitea Actions, a Gitea runner, and Ansible playbooks.

Karl Popper's philosophy of science, particularly his concept of falsificationism, offers a surprisingly powerful framework for rethinking how we approach cybersecurity. While Popper was concerned with demarcating science from pseudoscience, his ideas about conjecture, refutation, and the asymmetry between verification and falsification map remarkably well onto the challenges facing security professionals today.

This guide walks you through setting up comprehensive monitoring for your Proxmox server and all its VMs using Prometheus and Grafana.

Ancient Stoic wisdom meets modern cybersecurity. Epictetus's 2,000-year-old teachings on control, preparation, and resilience offer surprisingly practical guidance for security professionals navigating an landscape of inevitable breaches and constant threats.
