It's hard to explain the significance of CERN. It's the birthplace of the World Wide Web and the home of the largest machine ever built, the Large Hadron Collider. The bit that's hard to explain is, well, I mean, look at it! Charlotte and I visited CERN in 2019, nestled in there between Switzerland and France, and descended into the mountainside where we saw the world's largest particle accelerator firsthand. I can't explain this! The physics are just mind-bending. A few months ago, we headed...

Seeing the ongoing uptake of governments using HIBP to do useful things in the wake of data breaches is enormously fulfilling and I look forward to welcoming many more national CSIRTs in the future....
