  🎣 DFIR Suite API Spotlight: CheckPhish URL Scan You're triaging a suspected phishing email. The URL looks clean in VirusTotal. No hits in your threat intel feeds. But something feels off. This is where POST /phishing/checkphish earns its keep. It scans URLs in real-time using CheckPhish's detection engine — purpose-built to catch live phishing pages, tech support scams, and brand impersonation attempts that haven't made it into static blacklists yet. What you get back: disposition (clean/suspicious/phishing), the brand being targeted (Microsoft, PayPal, etc.), and a screenshot of the rendered page. That screenshot alone can confirm what logs can't — whether it's a convincing Office 365 login clone or a legitimate site. Practical scenario: User forwards you a "verify your account" email with a shortened link. You expand it, run it through /phishing/checkphish, and within seconds you have a verdict and visual proof. No need to spin up a sandboxed browser or wait for threat intel to catch up. Costs 2 credits per request. Available on all plans at hXXps://platform[.]dfir-lab[.]ch It's a fast, reliable check for the URLs that don't trigger your existing defenses — but probably should. #DFIR #ThreatIntel

  @omninomsky @jiya_3063 WSL helps on windows, and has been quite amazing really. That said, one big "reason" for developing "preferring" windows really comes down to corporate governance and office tools. Many businesses run off Office 365, sharepoint, etc. Yes, you can run these in a browser, but with limitations. Another big reason is governance of machines. Machines are imaged, sent out and a good 25% of their utilization is just off of software like antivirus, threat scanning, etc. It's pretty inefficient, in my view, but can be an uphill battle to change it.

  @DoWhatYouDo6 I thought they: 1. were serious about developing the next-gen XBOX console with AMD which was codenamed Project Magnus under the leadership of Sarah Bond. 2. the cost of RAM and SSDs skyrocketed so its specification was unaffordable and Satya Nadella quietly cancelled Project Magnus, but expected Sarah to lie to the community that they were still manufacturing hardware, to buy their engineers time to work on Windows 12 X and then have OEM bring out PCs that conformed to the Windows 12 X reference specification, that requires the AMD Magnus SoC which does Path Tracing. The initial spec. was 48 GB GDDR7 RAM which was probably for the dev kit, and since they are talking about using Neural Texture compression they might only need 32 GB for retail. However, this PC could cost as much as $4,000 and it would outperform self-builds that are $10,000 so that price, whilst unaffordable for XBOTs, is value for money for a consumer who is wealthy and could afford to buy more software, but realistically will tend to only play a couple of games (e.g. their Microsoft Flight Simulator, or Forza Horizon 6), so Microsoft need to get them through monetisation, although their real concern is to ensure a sale of Windows so that they don't lose customers of their Office 365 GroupWare to Linux business software, which could happen through SteamOS installs and not necessarily the Steam Machine itself. That is why Satya Nadella still bothers with gaming at all, because they need it as a Trojan Horse for their increasingly dog **** Operating System, which you won't notice is literal malware (spyware) because you spend most of your time in XBOX Mode that it lets you boot your computer straight into so the Operating System is kinda moot. Sarah Bond resigned because she had too much integrity to lie to XBOX fans. This pissed them off so she wasn't mentioned in their memo. 3. Asha was brought in by Satya to "acclimate" consumers on XBOX (on a variety of platforms and devices) to Copilot AI via the Gaming Copilot service. That backfired and consumers did not want that. Asha listened and "listening" characterised everything she did including Twitter polls to let fans choose: Xbox or XBOX and have a premature 25 anniversary showcase as they can't wait until 25th November 2026 to do that showcase. Maybe Phil Spencer will show up at an event in November and have a "rose tinted spectacle" nostalgic history of everything good that took place over 25 years (leaving out RRoD and DRM), but I doubt it. So, Asha was renaming Magnus to Helix with the justification it had Gaming Copilot integration, but it has lost that now, so what distinguishes it as a "project". It may be that she is talking about using AI to help port XBOX GDK code to their unified Windows GDK (so developers with PC make their games for Windows and there is no need to port what they make to XBOX or have an XBOX dev kit as the XBOX is a PC because Asha changed Microsoft Gaming to XBOX so all XBOX refers to is their games, services and microtransactions and not necessarily any console hardware at all). You then get the promotion of the AMD partnership at GDC 2026 and their commitment to Cross Progression and it becomes obvious that they are tripling down on encouraging their XBOX users with real money who are good customers who actually buy games (and aren't petulant whiny babies demanding all AAAs are Day One in GAME PASS and don't buy games through this service like Fatal Mephisto but rent everything for as long as it is available), to migrate to Windows 12 X. 4. Asha has said no one wants to pay $2000 for a console, so that led to speculation that they would imitate Google Stadia (only rent all the software/servers) and play on a Samsung TV without need of a console, but that requires an investment in racks of servers that need to be fully utilised to be economic, so unless they do something wild and buy Netflix my bet is on no next-gen XBOX console and expensive Windows 12 X PCs.

  @therahul4402 What's happening with Linux Mint? Windows 11 happened. I did not have serious issues with Windows 10. Log into your MS account..harder and harder local options. All your personal and IP and Work Product files have to be on Onedrive. Copilot. Sales push for Office 365, when anyone with a brain has been using OS for decades. Edge harassment. Poison Updates . Slinking to subscriptions. Eternal cash flow. GFYS with a road flare.

  PrincessLeah (@ScorpionWSDBW) reported 19 minutes ago

  Let's put some "customer" information in here, so you have a better perspective. First, most of us who live in cyber security world avoid Edge like the plague. It is malware gangrene. You have designed it so that it digs in to every piece of our system, gathering our information, and we can't configure it to stay out. Security concerns. Let's add another problem, which is creating problems in daily operations: Office 365 has been designed in a way that prevents us from normal functions that we valued highly in Office Professional 2016, which was your cleanest, most professional WORKING version. Fast, efficient, and without the intrusions of 'phone' children processing. The new O365 is the least professional of all the versions you have 'improved.' I don't care about you tracking my daily work, giving me a 'viva report.' In fact, I want that deleted. There are so many bugs in O365, such as synching issues, wherein entire strings of emails disappear from the in box if I use a different device to respond to a Customer. There is a LONG list of 'improvements' you force in during updates that are actually damaging to work flow. Further, trying to force us into the NEW outlook is enraging. We keep using the "classic" to survive all your bugs and bad screen layouts, and the lack of controls your new version has imposed, and it keeps flipping back. SOOOOO many things we all hate about O365 and you do nothing to fix them. YOU have decided how we should do business. These childish relabeling and moving episodes of commands does not improve your product. Example: There was a function that allowed me to open an email, search 'all related emails' and find an older piece of the conversation. That's gone. Why? Many of the admin functions in settings are simply gone. Same with the new Windows. When I go research in various communities, MANY humans have the same complaints. Everyone hates the new versions of both products. SOME OF US are required to work offline, we do not work in your clouds. We have to have everything on the computer unit to travel without cloud access. You have made that a major problem. Do yourself a favor. If you want us to actually LIKE you, instead of hate you all day, take a survey here. Ask everyone what they miss about the old product, just start with 2016 Office Professional, and ask what they hate about O365. Ask about security problems, ask about the sentiment regarding Edge being forced on us, without the ability to uninstall it. Learn this: We are paying your salary. Learn this: We are all unhappy with the current product. Millions of us are heavy-use professionals that need the cleaner version. The current online version is even worse than that desktop app. Learn this: 2016, literally, was the last clean version you produced/coded. Once you went all SAS and cloud sales focused, you trashed a great product. Maybe have a team researching all the public comments and problems.

  @OneNote In the OneNote app for Office 365 under Windows 10, somebody broke the 'copy link to paragraph' functionality. Intead of pasting a hsort clean link, it pastes the *entire URL'. This is broken, it works in the Windows 10 app btw. (But my notebook does nto work in the Windows 10 app. And the error happens in 'smaller' and 'neater' notebooks as well in the 365 app for Win10.)

  @RihardJarc Half of its market value is office 365. So you can cut that segment in half, thus reducing its market cap by 25%. I think that segment's going to go down even more

  Mike Nicoletti (@mikenicoletti) reported 28 minutes ago

  The bear case on Office 365 boils down to one thing: does Microsoft participate in the agent-facing side of data work? Right now most people talk to agents through a terminal or some stitched-together texting setup. If Microsoft makes Teams the place you talk to your agents and share work with them, they own the interface. That interface is the moat.

  @NXT4EU We used to have office computers, running on an office server park. No outside computers had access. Micro$oft mandates Office 365 and OneDrive. The server may be in Europe, but where is the backup server. And more important: Who has admin rights over your files?

  The new revelation regarding windows GDID probably has pissed off various “3 letter” agencies around the world. It’s been a staple of easily tracking you and I. Too bad. Glad it’s been outed. I’ve switched out the various laptops I use for online activities such as this one for a certain Linux distribution as well as modified their hardware a bit. Yes, you can be tracked by what’s in your computer. Change it around a bit if possible. Don’t use the same box you pay bills and work remotely on to get on social media. -Proton VPN- DON’T EVER use a Microsoft account. Sign into your windows computer with an old school local account. This is a must. You can search for how to do it. Office 365 can be permanently activated on your computer as a local installation. Do it. (Massgrave) Better yet, use Libre Office and enjoy not being tracked by Office 365. I Google scans your Gmail. Be aware of it. There’s better email providers (Proton). Nobody is perfect but some are orders of magnitude less “nosey.” Download DoNotSpy11. You want to turn OFF virtually everything. You’ll be amazed at what you can shut down. Turn OFF your location / eye tracking / motion detection on your laptop if you don’t do anything else. There is at least one windows GDID changer powershell script I tested. It worked. If you sign into a MS account, you’ll get the same GDID right back so don’t use that MS account going forward. Not going into phone safety or Flock cameras or new vehicles in this post. I’ll just say this: Any time your phone/iPad etc is not inside of an rf-proof bag/case, it’s going to talk to something somewhere, even if it is “off.” You can buy those bags on Amazon cheap. Get one. If you have a newer car (on-star) it tells servers where the car is constantly. Review: Learn Linux. It’s open source, not full of spyware. Get a ham radio license. Keep your 10 year old Toyota forever. Pay with cash sometimes just to switch it up a bit and make the cashier learn to count 😎. Be aware of what devices you use that tattle on your activities and govern yourself accordingly. A little misdirection or just being quieter on social media never hurts, either. Okay end of my coffee-laden ramblings. Hopefully this helped some of you. 🇺🇸
