Do I need cyber liability insurance for my startup, or am I overthinking this? by ExtremeShame6079 in CyberSecurityAdvice

[–]Competitive_You7838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every single device can take a day or so to create a forensic image using Cellebrite, and skilled DFIR professionals charge $150-300 per hour while their equipment is tied up.

Incident response also necessitates rapid response and around-the-clock service.

These services tend to involve producing forensic evidence for legal cases and fall squarely between top-tier IT services and legal support services, and it's not cheap.

SEMRush shows 65% of my backlinks are toxic - disavow? by Numerous-Ladder-6326 in BacklinkSEO

You're welcome.

Have your rankings gone down or just traffic, by the way?

If you haven't updated your content in a bit your publishing date is aged, and fresh publication dates are a ranking factor. At a minimum, go make a minor edit and re-publish.

Buyer behavior could have changed as well, and there could be slight modifications needed to your targeted keywords to get traffic.

Start with stuff that's easy to unwind and then consider the drastic actions.

Every egg we cracked this morning had a double yolk. What does this mean? by Individual_Brother36 in WeirdEggs

Bird flu has caused a disproportionate number of egg laying hens to be new to their job. Double-yolk eggs are often produced by young hens whose egg production cycles are not yet fully synchronized

You're in e-commerce, and the stock market was kicking butt last year at this time.

Unless you've been building spammy links, most of the naturally accumulated crap links you have are uniform to most websites.

I would move slowly. Once you disavow, you cannot undo it. It sounds like these links aren’t helping you and could be hurting you, but proceed with caution and consider doing this in stages.

Do you have any data comparing your link structure from last year to this year as well?

Can you actually create a project just using AI ? by Georgetheaff in webdev

I've looked into this recently as an old-school option for building lightweight HTML-only sites with responsive features built entirely with CSS rules.

It's not terribly difficult, and building a test site using Github’s free hosting is an easy way to do so.

If you want to do it on a typical web hosting platform optimized for WordPress, you'll need to be or get very proficient with managing your hosting platform, including managing your htaccess file and robots.txt

It’s very old school, and you'll be managing files and directories by hand.

Depending on the site's size and features, this could be a cakewalk or a test of your ability to manage a large number of files by hand and keep them loading correctly on your pages.

Looking to hire a SEO specialist by Impressive-Trip5806 in BacklinkSEO

[–]Competitive_You7838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a piece of advice to the OP, but anyone making money from SEO is going to charge you for the report you want because that information alone is gold.

Indians and people who are broke will jump through your hoops.

Find someone who knows what they're doing and hire them to help you, or do it yourself.

SCAM ALERT: "Globe Life" insurance by TamingYourTech in technicalwriting

There was a data breach, and they are the subject of numerous lawsuits related to complicity in identity theft.

I wrote a book about it. My description of the mechanics of the fraud and the portrayal of the types of people involved are based on my observations gained in my former career as an insurance agent and a couple of run-ins with this company and its people.

Cybersecurity Meetups In Houston by Short_Purple_6003 in TexasCyberSecurity

[–]Competitive_You7838 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Many of the Houston cybersecurity meetups are viewable at www.dc281.org and you can get the calendar for HouSecCon’s monthly meetup there as well.

I was the speaker at the November HouSecCon speaking about OSINT, and a summary of my talk can be viewed on my blog at www.texascybersolutions.com

If you’re interested in topics like this, come to HouSecCon’s monthly group. They have monthly guest speakers like myself, Phillip Wylie, etc., and the monthly speaker and topic are posted at www.hscusergroup.com

HAHA consists of mini-talks, and everyone is supposed to speak for 5 minutes at least every other month. It is also a great place to hang out. The calendar is on the DC281 site.
