Black Hat may be the benchmark signaling the end of security nihilism and snark. Cybersecurity is mainstream and at the core of geopolitics, national security, policy decisions, human rights and physical safety.

There are still so many content to bloviate on Twitter about how impossible it is to secure anything, or take a pot-shot at victims; look no further than those organizations hit by EternalBlue for some recent victim-shaming.
