Cybersecurity is not obvious even for this newsletter !

The weekly cyber ended on my blog for now, linkedin stuff doesn’t work !

Cyber security focus is to achieve CIA, Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability. Well, seems that my edition of last week suffered from availability issues where no one got notification of it. Sad because it was quite interesting, you can still find it by checking previous version of this newsletter.
