🎆 New Wikibooks book on inexpensive end-user computer security...

Just completed a Wikibooks book on inexpensive end-user computer security. Might be relevant to your work, and because it's hosted on a Wikimedia Foundation site, it might not be too difficult for you to use its content. It's hosted at: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/End-user_Computer_Security. --MarkJFernandes (talk) 11:18, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

About cyber loss scenario modeling in wikidata

I would like to use Wikidata to model the different cyber loss scenarios. What is the connection of this Wikipedia project and wikidata? Do we need an equivalent project on Wikidata or this can be coordinated from this project? --AntoineLogean (talk) 11:18, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Help with article about technology company

Hello. I’m hoping a member of this group can help out with a few changes I’ve proposed to improve the Cloudflare article at Talk:Cloudflare#Request Edits February 2021. I have a conflict of interest so would like an independent editor to evaluate the proposed edits. Thanks! Ryanknight24 (talk) 18:48, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Phineas Phisher/Fisher

Hi, i was considering making an article about phineas-phisher who you can find out about here,here ,here for a few examples, a quick search of google books as well as a browse of a few I own shows: A ecent amount of hits, but i am unsure if this person passes is enough Notable. Could I get some feedback here before I begin? It would be much appreciated, Thanks. W1tchkr4ft 00 (talk) 21:45, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

W1tchkr4ft 00, notability is established by significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. Vice coverage looks good, that counts as one source. [1] is good if it was published in a respectable journal. WP:INTERVIEWs such as [2] can be considered WP:PRIMARY sources so are not necessarily good evidence of notability. There is one promising book in your Books search. The subject appears to be marginally notable based on what you've provided here. ~Kvng (talk) 15:21, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion of 'Golden Age of HTTPS/SSL/TLS/CA' and 'HTTP is Dead'

I have often seen opening sites of any kind for a long time, but since the 2010s some of these sites have switched to https permanently and make me worrying (however not). My suggestion about 'Golden Age of HTTPS/SSL/TLS/CA' where users of encryption really need and as an obligation to secure the site now and 'HTTP is Dead' is the drastic reduction of the use of http has been experienced since the late 2010s due to security warning and more vulnerable for all. Thanks for my suggestion about the history of HTTP and HTTPS --Firzafp (talk) 10:03, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
