May Newsletter – Summertime Chi

By Chris Plunkett Newsletter No Comments

Memorial Day is Monday, the unofficial start to summer — which in Chicago is a brief 3-month window to wear shorts and head to a street festival. Far above the streets lies another favorite Summertime Chi pastime: drinking and dining on a rooftop with a view.

April Newsletter – Feeling Lucky

By Chris Plunkett Newsletter No Comments

Last Thursday, I woke up feeling lucky: the forecast showed sunny skies and high sixties – perfect Spring weather for April in Chicago – for our first Cyber Security Made Social gathering of the year in West Town. No doubt aided by the favorable weather, we had our second-best attendance to date.

March Newsletter – Spring Dance

By Chris Plunkett Newsletter No Comments

Spring is upon us and with it March Madness. And as always with the Big Dance, there’s a Cinderella that’s busting brackets: St. Peter’s stunned 2-seed Kentucky and then 7-seed Murray State and is only the third 15-seed to ever make the Sweet 16. Regardless the outcome of their game later today, it’s certainly a reason to celebrate for the Peacocks.

February Newsletter – Goin’ Up on a Twosday

By Chris Plunkett Newsletter No Comments

Earlier this week was 2/22/22 – occurring on a Tuesday, no less. Or rather, Twosday. It was a once-in-a-lifetime palindrome date that won’t happen again for 400 years. A woman in North Carolina gave birth precisely at 2:22 am to a daughter in delivery room 2. Another mom in Pennsylvania, after 2 days in labor, welcomed not one baby, but twins. Deuces are wild!

January Newsletter – Month-Long Monday

By Chris Plunkett Newsletter No Comments

January, the first month of the year — or as I’ve seen it called, a giant Monday. Call me crazy, but I don’t think a case of the Mondays is all that bad. It’s a time for looking ahead, sharpening pencils, drawing up goals, and setting your sights. We’re targeting more growth (and ditching the TPS reports). Wherever your Office Space is, we hope you’ve had a great month-long Monday. Tuesday starts next week!

February Newsletter – Groundhog Day … Again!

By Chris Plunkett Newsletter No Comments

Today’s the day … again! And the prediction is in. Punxsutawney Phil, as he’s has done since 1887, emerged at 7:25 a.m. and saw his shadow. Which means six more weeks of winter, give or take your stock in the prognostication of a bucktoothed rodent. Read More

September Newsletter – Do You Remember?

By Chris Plunkett Newsletter No Comments

The September equinox arrived (do you remember?) marking the end of summer and start to fall—or as I call it, Pumpkin-flavored Season™.

Leaves are falling. Turtlenecks have emerged. Halloween stores have popped up in vacant store fronts. Lots of change, but one thing remains the same: cyber attackers continue to prefer phishing. And continue to make hay with it. Read More
