CrowdSec typo leaves cybersecurity user embarrassed
Original: Wanted to type @ CrowdSec into my browser and ended up with crowdsex. Don’t judge me! # InfoSec
A user in the infosec community shared a slip of the fingers while trying to visit the website of CrowdSec, a cybersecurity company, accidentally landing on a lookalike address reading 'crowdsex' instead. The anecdote was shared lightheartedly, inviting others not to judge, and highlights how easily security-related domain names can be mistyped.
Why now: The amusing typo and its awkward result make it relatable, shareable humour within the cybersecurity community.
