This week I'm doing my best "dress like a professional" impersonation as I prepare to record the next episode in our quarterly Creating a Security-centric Culture series. We're putting these out for free every few months and right after wrapping up this week's update, I recorded the next Pluralsight one and that's now gone off to them for editing. This week, I'm still on HTTPS. I don't mean for this to become a repetitive topic (and I'm sure it'll die down after Chrome 68 hits next week), but this week got pretty crazy. The most unexpected outcome of those discussions was a real flat-earther chiming into the Twitter discussion after someone made the innocent mistake of using the #FlatEarth hash tag to describe people decrying HTTPS. There's links to that discussion and the nasty comments Scott copped on my blog below. But other than that, there's a new Pluralsight course on GDPR I've done with a genuine expert on the topic and I've just noticed it's rating 5 stars too so happy with that! Plus there's my post on a whole bunch of nifty Azure Function and Cloudflare Workers bits. I get a lot of pleasure of building stuff on platforms like this and I hope you enjoying reading about it (and hearing about it).
