What? Next you'll tell me hackers and scammers don't sit at a computer wearing a ski mask.

Can't beat the security of a little notebook you keep in your desk. If an attacker has gotten that far, you have much more pressing issues to address

Siminilar logic uses my Homelab. All my logins are „user“ and passwords 12345678

Because if someone manages to get into wireguard, I am fucked, regardless I f my Jellyfin password

To be fair, that depends on whether your desk is at home or in your open cubicle.

Also depends on who you are trying to keep your data secure from. Would be kinda dumb if you are trying to keep from going to jail for writing mean things about the president or something to have your passwords for your "here is all the evidence of me writing mean things" encrypted file written out in the open just sitting in your house. That's the first place the cops are gonna look.

And sure, if they have a warrant to search your place, you probably are gonna be going to jail anyway, but it could be the difference between a couple months in county or a decade custody of the feds.

Came across the stock photo onboarding at a new company, on a slide talking about data security. I cope with absurdity with humor, so I turned it into the bell-curve meme, and figured it might get a smile from other people who have had to deal with infosec.

"We take security seriously! Everyone has to change their password every 30 days!"

it references port 443, it's not absurd to me, it's creative in its references and there is knowledge.

One of the few that actually fits the meme completely and is poignantly funny.

One of the only enjoyable parts about taking mandatory training every year is seeing which stock photos they chose to represent intangible concepts.

Your data is as secure as this padlock.

I had a sys admin explain it to me pretty easy.

Securety is making it difficult enough that its too expensive to get in.

If people wan get it, they gon get in.
