Some of the best spoofs this past April fool's
This April Fool’s totally surprised me. The quality of posts and videos companies made was just phenomenal and one was just outright over the top. Amazing quality!
For the non-initiated though, the big takeaway is that we have so many issues in the security space. From acronym overcrowding, to security engineers without empathy, to security vendors overpromising and underdelivering - and everything in between!
So what better else than humor to help soften things up and shed some light on the matter.
Below are some handpicked selections from the past April fools. Enjoy!

Aikido Security Rebranding Spoof
Ingenious and amazingly well produced post by the Aikido team. They beautifully highlight some of the hilarity that goes in some of these rebranding sessions by marketing team and founders. Really enjoyed this one.

Private Key Spoof Website by Includesec
Taking a more sarcastic and in your face approach, the folks at IncludeSec took a more direct approach by setting up a fake “private key” checker.
I’m curious if anyone actually uploaded anything.
Dustin Lehr - Run In With A Security Analyst
Hilarious post by Dustin Lehr on how interacting with security people sometimes can be so clueless.
CISO Musical by WIZ
The Wiz marketing team has done it again. By far the most outrageous joke on the industry and actually quite accurate.
My favorite parts:
CSPDM, DSPM, KSPM….. AISPM
“Compliance needs its say”
Blaming the Intern for an incident

Had another amazing time on Enterprise Security Weekly with host Adrian Sanabria, and co-hosts Jackie McGuire and Sean Metcalf.
