Going Live in 15 Minutes — Come Join Us!

I’m about to tune in for a live ITSPmagazine webinar that dives into a topic I truly care about:

Secure Coding = Developer Empowerment

It’s not just about reducing risk — it’s about investing in developers, boosting velocity, and building better software from the start.

Today – April 18

Hosted by ITSPmagazine

In partnership with Manicode Security

Jim Manico

Jimmy Mesta

Sean Martin, CISSP

Will be talking about:

Why most developers never get proper secure coding training

How to get leadership buy-in for better dev security

Why this isn’t just security—it’s a career boost

If you’ve got time, join us live. If not, watch it on demand. Either way, it’s a conversation worth having.

Runtime instrumentation in Java – with no frameworks at all.

I wrote a REST service using HttpServer and injected logging logic at class-load time using a custom Java Agent and the Instrumentation API.

DNS attacks are not just legacy threats – they’re evolving.

In my new article series, I explore modern DNS attack vectors like cache poisoning, tunneling, hijacking & spoofing – and how we as developers can defend at the protocol edge.

A must-read if you're building Java-based backend systems or securing internal services.
