Collaborate Disseminate
A fairly hectic week this one, in a large part due to chasing down really flakey network issues that are causing devices (namely Shelly relays) to be inaccessible. I suspect it’s ARP related and as of now, it’s still not fully resolved. You know how much shit breaks in a

Another month, another national government to bring onto Have I Been Pwned. This time it’s the Ukrainian National Cybersecurity Coordination Center who now has access to monitor all their government domains via API domain search, free of charge.
