The Ukrainian military is extremely good at enabling lower echelon leaders to operate independently with initiative. Russia has a more Soviet style top down military which fails to respond dynamically when the situation changes from the plan. Why is this a problem? No plan survives first contact with the enemy.

This mindset is prevalent among ground forces, too. A Ukrainian army lieutenant told me: “We manage to take the initiative and destroy the enemy as it is convenient and safe for us.” /2

This is amazing, a company from the Netherlands had developed a drum magazine system for dropping mortar rounds from commercial drones. The future battle field is going to be about countering drones. t.me/razved_dozor/1…

This is an enthralling read. History of a glyph and what and why design decisions were made. Trust me.

One of the most frustrating things about the present war, & to a wider extent the natsec policy space, is the inability of so many involved to envision entirely foreseeable scenarios & their outcomes. The failed RF bridging at Siverskyi Donets on 11May is a classic exemplar case

NCC Group's Sultan Qasim Khan has developed a generic link layer relay technique for Bluetooth Low Energy which satisfies the latency requirement. We worked with the Bluetooth SIG (who don't make relay resistance claims) and suggested they inform vendors as to the risk.

Microsoft says relay attack vulnerability is actually a feature, WONTFIX. Developer releases PoC.

Not sure people have realised how much of a dumpster fire this one is.

Microsoft has fixed a “new” relay attack vulnerability!

Kevin Beaumont

@GossiTheDog

New is doing a lot of heavy lifting here... and it shouldn't be. Also, I'm not sure how this got a new CVE.

Microsoft fixes new PetitPotam Windows NTLM Relay attack vector

A recent security update for a Windows NTLM Relay Attack has been confirmed to be a previously unfixed vector for the PetitPotam attack.
