So you wanna work with AI
So the pandemic has you reconsidering your present job? Thinking maybe AI might be a more pandemic proof career? Ajit Jaokar writes, "If you are at the early stage of your career (less than two years out of Uni), a transition to AI is relatively easier. But you may need a different strategy for a mid career transition to AI." As I suspect very few readers are "less than two years out of Uni," Ajit's advice on the mistakes to avoid can be yours if you read more at Data Science Central: The most common mistake people make in mid-career transition to AI

Virtual Thanksgiving Greetings
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day and there will be no edition of the PinHawk. We will resume publishing on Friday. I want to thank all of you for your readership and look forward to continuing to serve you as we move forward and hopefully out of this pandemic. There is so much to be thankful for. It may take a little more contemplation this year to realize those blessings exist, but trust me they do. I wish you all a safe and happy holiday. If you can't gather safely with family, video conference them (Zoom has no time limits on their free accounts tomorrow). Be safe. Be mindful. Be thankful.

Recently, malicious attacks using Cobalt Strike have increased significantly. Cobalt Strike can legitimately penetrate testers access to many attack capabilities. In the wrong hands, we are seeing Cobalt Strike deploy an agent named "Beacon" for post-exploitation. This can lead to a Ryuk Ransomware attack.
