Reply STOP to ignore. Now as a cybersecurity professional, I can already see (even without being a current Wells Fargo customer) that this is a phishing attempt. However, my curiousity got the best of me and I wanted to play this one out to see what intel it may yield. https://mcalynn.com/post/hey-yall/ Tue, 01 Sep 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://mcalynn.com/post/hey-yall/ Hey, y’all (That’s Texan for “Hello, World”) I’ve just made a successful migration to Hugo with the Clarity theme and will be slowly pulling over content from my previous website. Unfortunately, because of a horrible experience with my prior hosting provider, I’m forced to retreive this content from a variety of archived sources on the Internet. So, it’s going to take me several weeks to months to complete the migration. Please be patient with me during this process. https://mcalynn.com/talks/ Thu, 27 Aug 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://mcalynn.com/talks/ Veaam Live - How to Prevent Ransomware with Microsoft, Veeam & 3rd Party Technologies HD, 1280x720p Jupiter Extras - Cyber Security Mistakes You’re Probably Making: Duncan McAlynn BSides San Antonio - Does Patch Tuesday Really Matter Anymore?
