Rapid7 Threat Intel Book Club: Summer Session
In April we wrapped up our first installment of the Rapid7 Threat Intel Book
Club [/2018/04/12/threat-intel-book-club-the-cuckoos-egg-wrap-up/]. Much to our
delight, our New Year’s resolution/grand experiment
[/2018/01/01/auld-lang-syne-threat-intelligence-resolutions-for-2018/] on
hosting a regular threat intel book club was a success! We got to dive into The
Cuckoo’s Egg [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cuckoo%27s_Egg] with a few dozen
of our closest internet friends, discuss the things that

Threat Intelligence Book Club: Round 2
Last Wednesday, Rebekah Brown [/author/rebekah-brown] and I hosted Rapid7’s
inaugural threat intelligence book club
[/2018/02/02/welcome-to-the-2018-threat-intel-book-club/] meeting, where we dug
into the first third of Cliff Stoll’s classic The Cuckoo’s Egg with what was
(fortunately for us) deemed appropriate enthusiasm. A huge thanks to everyone
who took the time to join us in exploring the world of 1980s threat intel; your
passion, eloquence, and expertise were inspiring. For those who misse
