It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem, it’s me.

Posts auto-delete after a month.

I BLOCK boosters of Auschwitz Memorial (reason: EN: https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/114404158078811047; NL: https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/114220546604058265). I may unblock them after some time (if they did not repeat).

Independent 60+ Dutch security researcher. I hate injustice, propaganda and discrimination. I try to be as objective as possible.

Mission: make the internet a safer place!

Primary focus: #impersonation (i.e. when #authentication fails).

Infosec: #passkeys #certificates #phishing #MFA #2FA #OTP #TOTP #DMARC #cryptography #PKI #androidPasskeys #accountLockout #ATO #accountTakeOver #privacy #clientSideScanning #CSS #domainNameLaundering #letsEncrypt #DV

Other: #Gaza #Ukraine #covidApps #coronaMelder #coronaCheck #vaccination (I took anti-Covid jabs through 2024).

Notes:
• Don't auto-trust all of this. It may be a spoof, even if "I" say it's not (i.e. my account may be hacked).

• Muting users of URL-shorteners (i.e buff.ly) on infosec.exchange.

Amateur professional #selfhost sysadmin. Professional amateur #cloud #security at #AWS. Also fond of #cats, #cigars, #whiskey and #pipes. I like board games and some video games. I am #covid cautious and I still #wearamask. Opinions are my own, but they can be yours too. 100% Organic:,No artificial colors, preservatives, or intelligence added.

I am Director of System Architecture at SCI Semiconductor and a Visiting Researcher at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory. I remain actively involved in the #CHERI project, where I led the early language / compiler strand of the research, and am the maintainer of the #CHERIoT Platform.

I was on the FreeBSD Core Team for two terms, have been an LLVM developer since 2008, am the author of the GNUstep Objective-C runtime (libobjc2 and associated clang support), and am responsible for libcxxrt and the BSD-licensed device tree compiler.

Opinions expressed by me are not necessarily opinions. In all probability they are random ramblings and should be ignored. Failure to ignore may result in severe boredom and / or confusion. Shake well before opening. Keep refrigerated.

Warning: May contain greater than the recommended daily allowance of sarcasm.

Started as a Raspberry Pi sitting under the desk of @SecureOwl receiving and sharing interesting and sometimes funny ACARS/VDLM2 messages sent from passing aircraft. Now doing that from aircraft anywhere we have coverage thanks to distributed drama enthusiasts - DM or check out acarsdrama.com if you have an SDR and would like to feed the drama machine.

Working at front lines of the IT and having fun there. Been around the Internet since 1992 and still in awe what has become of that little baby.

Personal interests:

- Books (mostly F&SF)
- IT Security
- Computer Games & RPG
- Cooking
- Movies
- Everything that blinks, has buttons to press and looks remotely gadgetoid

Everything i write, post, tweet, blog or blurp is just my personal opinion and is not the opinion or policy of my employer, my cat or my goldfish.

I post in English and German. Will try to mark each post correctly, but errors happen. Sorry for that.

I appologize if I am not following you back. This happens as my stream is already getting more posts than I can read.

Followed you out of the blue = probably stole you from follows of someone I respect.

Blocked inadvertently? Ask!

Am I following a dirtbag? Tell me!

Boosts not about security ... usually are.
