100 consecutive days. 10 miles per day. 1,000 miles total. Starting June 28 — this is the first entry in a running series for cancer research, inspired by Terry Fox and fueled by something deeply personal.

From regex and fingerprinting to AI-powered classification, DSPM convergence, and GenAI exfiltration vectors — a complete technical guide to how DLP works, where it fails, and where it's headed in 2026.

From the biology of a single mutated cell to diagnosis, treatment, research, and life after — a complete guide to understanding cancer: what it is, how it works, how to detect it, and what to do when it hits close to home.

What if the ancient reminder of death is actually an invitation to live more deeply? This reflection explores the tension between ambition and presence — and why both matter.

AI-powered attacks now break out in 29 minutes — exfiltration starts in 4. Offensive AI eliminated the time variable defenders relied on. Why detection-and-response fails against autonomous attackers, and what to build instead.

Six technologies determine your phone's location at any moment. One can be fooled by a transmitter on the ground. Another is physically immune to that deception — which is why your phone received a rocket warning even when Google Maps showed you were in Jordan.
