If you’re not already following some of our excellent NovaInfosec Twits and are wondering where to get the best NoVA-, DC-, and MD-related security tweets, look no further than this post. Published every Friday, our “Infosec Ramblings” post takes many [all in this case 
] of my security tweets/RTs from the past week and puts them into one easy to digest post. And if you don’t want to wait an entire week, just stop on by my @grecs Twitter account.
[Just a quick note... Real work is still bogging me down. I hope to make these posts more organized in the future. But until then I hope you all find some use from this tweet dump. ]
