Hi friends, a reminder from your friendly neighborhood software engineer:

1. Change your password on netgalley as well as on any other sites where you used that password

2. Consider using a password manager (I like lastpass) to make this process easier in the future

3. Consider using a service like haveibeenpwned.com to get alerted when your email shows up in a data breach. Many sites don't alert users as quickly as netgalley did.

#netgalley

sebrittainclark I'm honestly super impressed by how netgalley has handled this breach. Sending an email two days after a breach happened and immediately implementing security measures basically never happens. 4y
j9brown Thanks for the tips. I tend to use the same handful of passwords even though I know I shouldn't. I wish more sites did the two-step authentication. 4y
bookishcow I never used this website but these are great tips in keeping your passwords safe. I created a password generator using Python that mixes up some letters numbers and symbols to make it secure 4y
BookwormM Great hints thanks for sharing 4y

I spoke at a conference just now and was surprised to see myself on LinkedIn just a few minutes later. Now down to south Texas to train hundreds of employees on cyber security

The Internet is the first thing that humanity has built that humanity doesn‘t understand, the largest experiment in anarchy that we have ever had.

In 2010, McAfee thought it impressive that it was discovering a new specimen of malware every fifteen minutes. In 2013, it was discovering one every single second!
