Years of working in threat‑adjacent roles can skew your perception — not because you’re cynical, but because your daily dataset is biased toward harm, deception, and edge cases. This piece explains why “good anomalies” can feel rare, how to recognize them without lowering your guard, and how to stay accurate without becoming naïve. It’s a grounded, non‑therapeutic guide for anyone who’s spent a career seeing the worst and still wants to notice the best.
Public AI, Private Data | Why Uploading Sensitive Information Is a Systemic Failure—Not an AI Problem
A blunt, systems‑level analysis of why sensitive data keeps leaking into public AI tools — and why the real failure isn’t artificial intelligence, but human judgment and organizational denial. Using the high‑profile CISA incident as a case study, Hunter Storm explains why AI cannot technically prevent this class of exposure, why DLP and “secure gateways” don’t solve the problem, and why trusted insiders remain the most dangerous exfiltration vector. This StormWatch advisory reframes AI as a data‑egress point, outlines the behavioral and structural failures behind these incidents, and provides actionable steps for leaders who need to secure sensitive information in an era where AI is everywhere and visibility is nearly zero.

It’s a reminder that relevance, clarity, and credibility beat ritual every time.
