  • Their tenets are amazing.

    THERE ARE SEVEN FUNDAMENTAL TENETS

    I - One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

    II - The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

    III - One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

    IV - The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one’s own.

    V - Beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s beliefs.

    VI - People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one’s best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

    VII - Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.












  • Quite a lot, actually. This is really a summation and not comprehensive.

    • Evaluate an environment after incident:
      • looking for IOCs, determine spread
      • Determine backup status and restore if possible
      • Return environment to healthy state (AD restore, replication, networking, etc.,)
      • Lockdown of security holes
      • Advise on best practices going forward
    • Decrypt environment if client pays ransom

    etc., etc.

    Depending on the complexity of the environment, this can take a lot of time and effort: much bigger than most internal teams are capable of doing. A client I had in Feb-Mar lasted a total of 3200 hours of work between 12 people on my team across 34 locations to unfuck the situation.
