RE: https://meemu.org/@ThePiGuy24/116581101489937636 Hmm... Ehternet over power lines, old school... Can&#39;t find the wiring diagram in the IEEE 1901 spec, maybe check the older ITU-T G.9960 recommendations before you proceed... 🤪

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@nyanbinary/116217179793809002 Fun fact, LDAP isn&#39;t Microsoft&#39;s, its circa 1993: its a simplified version DAP (X.500) of the ITU.X series of standards... Same one that gave us &#39;internet&#39; certificates (X.509)... The core of AD AuthN/Z is MIT&#39;s Kerberos (also 1993) which also predates AD. Many &#39;MS standards&#39; come from somewhere else...

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@catsalad/116334537332428390 Hmm... You have me thinking: CAT 9 - The latest cabling standard designed to withstand multiple faults/failures in insulation and conductors (coincidentally at least 9) before loss of service life. 🤪

My earlier joking about LLMs aside... I too would not agree that humans are &#39;the weakest link&#39;, there surely are cases where &#39;a human&#39; was &#39;a weakness&#39;, but in the context of Dr. Reason&#39;s swiss cheese model, rarely the weakest in the overall design of any system. After all, a key objective of proper cybersecurity is exactly to mitigate the human factor, so arguably, by definition if it came down to a human, something more critical faile...

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@hacks4pancakes/116406958995003435 Or put it another way: what would you like to have, a tool that is good at automating &#39;similar tasks&#39; because it supports natural language programming and excels at a kind of memory recall; or that AND human brains capable of actual problem solving and adaptation to novel situations? Me, given the choice, at a minimum I&#39;d take the human brains. Both is useful. The tool alone lacks an SME to properly drive t...
