Cell-site simulators (CSS, also known as Stingrays or IMSI catchers) are devices that masquerade as legitimate cell-phone towers, tricking phones within a certain radius into connecting to the device rather than a tower.

Hey, I'm going to give this a try. #Fedihire

I have written tons of blogs, whitepapers, books, and ad copy for tech companies about cybersecurity and general enterprise IT. See my portfolio: https://kimcrawley.com

I could really use proper writing gigs, though.

Some of the bestselling cybersecurity books, such as The Pentester Blueprint, were partly or completely written by me.
