Internet Storm Center: Threat Level Green or Just Bored?
Xavier Mertens is the handler on duty at the Internet Storm Center, keeping the threat level at a calm green. His next gig? Teaching network monitoring and threat detection in Baltimore this March. So, if you want to spot digital trouble like a pro, Xavier’s class might just be your ticket!

Hot Take:
The Internet Storm Center is like that reliable weather forecast of the cyber world, predicting storms of data breaches and sunny spells of low threat levels. While everyone else is gearing up for the next cyber-hurricane, these guys are probably sipping coffee and casually monitoring the digital skies. With a green threat level, it seems like the ISC is telling hackers, “Not today, Satan,” or perhaps just giving us all a break to recover from their last tempestuous stormcast.
