Today I learned that at some conferences it is expected that if you have two talks back to back in the same room, it is expected that you leave and join the line to get into the second talk rather than just wait. Been to a lot of conferences where that’s not a thing, but sure, I get how that’s only fair for to those who got in line half way through the first talk. Also, you can leave con staff speechless when you have been working in the industry for decades but confirm this is your first time attending in response to their question to your point-of-order question. :blobcatgooglyshrug:

@chetwisniewski@securitycafe.ca @Viss@mastodon.social Heard something today that kinda put this AI escapism into perspective. If you’re blue team, and you setup a sandbox in which to detonate malware, and the malware escapes the sandbox and nails you environment, the problem is not the malware but your incompetence in creating adequate sandboxes, which should be grounds for termination. Okay, I added that last part, but that doesn’t not make it true. This sandbox failure is neither new nor really unique. It just means they need better sandbox engineers.

@wanderinghermit@mindly.social The company sent me to Las Vegas where I’ve been “hanging out” with 30k+ of my newest closest not really friends. And then there are the tourists. While it’s been an education in more ways than one, when I get home I think I’m going to just go into self imposed exile from all interpersonal anythings.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange @SecureOwl@infosec.exchange True story. I was interviewing for an IT job at UO after leaving the Army in 1995. The last leg of the route to the interview paralleled a river. Was going over interview type things in my head when suddenly (it’s always suddenly) a salmon falls out of the sky and hits the road 10 feet (or so) in front of my car. I drive over it, look into the rear view mirror, and indeed there is a Salmon flopping around on the road behind me. Started laughing. Laughed all the way to the interview. Tried to keep my composure as it started but couldn’t. Started laughing again and just had to get it all out. Had the whole room in stitches. Got the best personal call back ever. Everyone wanted to hire me but HR vetoed it because I “lacked work experience.” They could have hired a vet and a salmon connoisseur. Their loss, but at least we had the Salmon moment to remember.

To the guy in the Tahoe with the 12’ 2x4 sticking out your canopy back window: your racing past me four times just to be stopped by red lights four times while I cruised through without speed change after they turned green every time should have been instructional, but I guess some people just can’t be taught.

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange Ah, Eve Online, how you absorbed almost every free moment of my life for years. That was back before it sold, in the good old days where you could only play for $15 a month and nothing else was for sell except in ISK. Had a smallishly popular blog and YouTube channel about my adventures. Participated in some truly huge ops like this. It was still only $15 a month. I still have my account. I still have billions of ISK in ships, merchandise and cold hard cash - at least last I checked. Maybe they server wiped. Don’t know. Somewhat curious what inflation is like but not enough to go back in. All my friends have left too and that was always the best thing about the game back then, even if they were sometimes your “enemy.”

@briankrebs@infosec.exchange @LillyHerself@mastodon.social There was a time in my youth when the advertising industry was imminently respectable. They worked hard to tailor ad campaigns to their target audience in pleasing and attractive ways. Hell, some jingles from those times are culturally significant! When the Internet came along, it continued to be that way for a time, until men of lesser talent realized that quantity has a money earning potential as great as quality and they now had the medium that would support the wholesale enshittification of a once honorable profession. Thanks Google.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange I’ve a computer science degree from the mid 80s. I then spent the next decade on another career. While getting my degree, the term “binary” was only used to refer to base 2 numbers. Period. We didn’t even program in it. Assembly language was in base 8 and later base 16. When I started working my second career in computers in the mid 90s, binary was being used everywhere for programs. I had no idea why. It took me a while, but fortunately I was working at HP and there were many early computer scientists I could talk to. It’s all the fault of software developers. At some point after assembly language went out of fashion, they started using the word binary to distinguish between compiled and uncompiled code. Then it got picked up by lay people. Now we’re stuck with it. However, as a serious computer scientist I never use the term willingly unless I get deer-in-the-headlights look from lay people like sales reps, personal assistants, CEOs and devs.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social And then there is the non-monetary costs. We recently completed our first penetration test against Copilot in my corp and to say we found a lot of secret and confidential stuff out there just for the promoting is an understatement. The company totally believed Microsoft when they said everything would be safe guarded, yet I personally found a document with every marketing service account name and password. Vender contracts, company secrets, legal documents: we found it all. Copilot in a corporate environment is the single largest amplifier of poor IAM configurations. It is the largest insider threat I’ve ever seen.

@stshank@mstdn.social Modern theropods cannot sense capsaicin, or so they say but I’ve never seen a paper on it. This is purportedly an evolutionary adaptation to keep mammals from eating seeds that will not survive their gastrointestinal tract. However, I have far too much experience (to PTSD levels if I were to be honest) with chickens. I know of no seed that will make it through their gizzard without a hard shell. Needless to say, I doubt the veracity of the capsaicin evolutionary tale. But from what I know of most bird seeds, they are made of hard shelled seeds. Reading what @bryan@dusty.ninja wrote, it sounds like he got a suet based block. That could bind softer seeds and would emulate the plant tissue around pepper seeds where the capsaicin actually is. Anyway, just rambling some thoughts here. Tl;dr - I think it’s just a marketing ploy.

@cR0w@infosec.exchange @Viss@mastodon.social @BleepingComputer@infosec.exchange I’ve been very, very close to Azure tenant password sprays (more accurately credential stuffing) for over five years now. In those 5+ years there was only one time they got a correct password and past MFA. We have a few correct password a quarter, but those accounts are quickly reset. Seriously, there is no news here. It’s business as usual. Clickfix, Teams vishing and device code phishing were far more serious. Now we’re continuing with SEO poisoning (fuck Gemini) rejuvenating the good old MitM credential harvesting shtick. Those are far more news worthy than low effort credential stuffing attacks.

@i_cannot_today@beige.party Commercial VPNs all use lease web IP services for global coverage. Lease web is infrastructure as a service companies who own IPs. All the commercial VPNs use them for dynamic IP assignment. Hackers also use them. Anyone can use them. When you use NordVPN or Proton those are the IPs you get. Since they are also used by hackers and the VPN companies won’t or can’t police themselves, all commercial VPN services are pretty much fail all the way around. But you don’t need them. The wireguard protocol they use for encryption is freely available to anyone and you can’t up your own VPN service with it. Companies like Tailscale, NetBird and Cloudflare (via their Warp product) allow you to connect all your devices via an encrypted network you control. Yes, it’s a little technical. But if you’re already asking what’s the best VPN you already know enough to make it work. I personally have a Proton account, but I have set up my own self-hosted NetBird virtual private server (VPS, costs $60 a year through IONOS) and use my home Internet router as my exit node so even when I am traveling it looks like I am at home. I can also set my exit node to any other IP I control like my VPS. My recommendation for a new VPN is to do it yourself.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social Iceland voted to default rather than bail out and they seem perfectly fine. Lovely country. Nice people.

RE: @campuscodi@mastodon.social

Every time I see something like this, and I’m talking about the private key reconstruction not the theft, my certainty that the bad guys are just smarter than the rest of us grows. But I realize that’s not the case. They are just motivated whereas the good guys, no matter how smart they are, get rewarded with redundancy by the new flashy (and “cheap”) AI being sold by those who know nothing.
