Firstly, welcome - you have found us.

Secondly, the origin story - https://www.reddit.com/r/blueteamsec/comments/1mc3pza/reddit_managed_to_ban_the_mod_of_rblueteamsec_due/ of which the tl;dr is we were in /r/Blueteamsec since 2018 and then in July 2025 the mod account got banned.

Thirdly, settle in as this is going to be the permanent home. The only features missing from Lemmy really are:

  • the titles are a little shorter than we are used to
  • the ability to style some of the community
  • categories

but in short nothing material. The Jerboa mobile client is excellent.

Fourthly, how does this work? Broadly speaking

  • there are optimised sources across X, various sites, groups and lists etc.
  • they are reviewed generally once or twice a day (start / end)
  • content is ideally < 1 week old at time of posting
  • content is then reviewed / curated / titles edited and posted

the rough rule of thumb being:

  • link to the source where possible i.e. not a news article but the technical source
  • cyber security relevant and insightful to cyber defence across technology, adversarial tradecraft/techniques/tools, threat intelligence, policy or events

Finally, all community contributions welcome!

And everyone thought registries were only for sex offenders. If it works to punish them then why not on those who don't want to work?

In short

A special counsel sent investigators to retrieve South Korea’s former president Yoon Suk Yeol from a detention centre near Seoul after he twice defied requests to attend questioning.

Yoon resorted to a new method to resist, by taking off his prison uniform and lying down on the floor of his detention room.

Counsel team members refrained from using physical means out of safety concerns, but notified Yoon that they would execute the warrant next time.

Wie kann man die Plastikaufnahme vermeiden?

„Die Plastikaufnahme beginnt schon beim Einkauf“, sagt Kerstin Effers von der Verbraucherzentrale NRW. Ihr Rat: Möglichst unverarbeitete und unverpackte Lebensmittel wählen. In der Küche sollten Plastikdosen, -schalen und -schneidebretter durch Glas, Edelstahl oder Hartholz ersetzt werden. Auch Kunststoff-Teebeutel besser meiden und statt Meersalz lieber zu Steinsalz greifen, das meist weniger belastet ist.

Leitungswasser enthält laut Schätzungen deutlich weniger Mikroplastik als Wasser aus Plastikflaschen. Bei Kleidung empfiehlt Effers, auf Naturfasern umzusteigen und Textilien möglichst lange zu tragen. Besonders bei Sport- und Outdoorbekleidung gilt: Lieber lüften statt waschen, vor allem in den ersten Waschgängen lösen sich viele Fasern. Eine gut gefüllte Maschine reduziert den Faserabrieb zusätzlich.

Bei Kosmetik lohnt ein Blick auf Naturkosmetik-Siegel. Wer auf Nummer sicher gehen will, sollte die Inhaltsstoffe prüfen. Als Faustregel gilt: Bei Begriffen mit „Poly“ besser zweimal hinschauen. Hilfreich sind außerdem Apps wie ToxFox vom BUND oder CodeCheck, die Produkte auf Mikroplastik und andere bedenkliche Stoffe überprüfen.

"This Week in Plasma" brings the news that Plasma 6.5 will have automatic day/night theme switching, that you can choose which Global Themes to show on the Quick Settings page, and that you can set dynamic wallpaper coloration to be based on the background color scheme or the time of day, or always light, or always dark.

I always figured they open when ripe to attract birds, so they can eat and spread their seeds, but not sure

The Bureau of Land Management implemented four rules today that create more leeway for oil and gas companies wanting to drill on public lands, as required by the spending bill President Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress passed in July. But voters will not have a chance to comment on two of the rules.

Note that they're also making it impossible to locate wind or solar on public land
