As a collective, Infosuckies are toxic people in the Information Security (Infosec) industry. They are vile and ooze negativity. While not always wrong, they make it their personality trait to fight with people online. They also love gate keeping and cancelling people. You can find them in droves on the app, Twitter. A singular of the infosuckies collective is referred to as an “Infosucky.”
An infosecual is a person that lives and breathes InfoSec (Information Security). Infosecuals are also sometimes referred to as l33t h@ck3rs, often times whitehat by day and blackhat by night.
Pronounced “InfoSec” then “ual”. Just like adding the “ual” suffix to “intellect” to make “intellectual."
Never anger an infosecual or they might pwn you. All your base are belong to them.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
