I’m using pass at home, but I’ve used hashicorp vault at a few jobs with great success.
IBM just forked it to openBao as well to get around the business license, if that’s a concern for your. But honestly I’d trust hashicorp more than IBM at this point.
I am currently trying to learn cyber security, specifically pentesting. I also do blue team things now and then, but not too often. I’ve started about 2 years ago with programming in python, later golang. I feel like I am decent in both. However when it comes to pentesting and security in general. It doesn’t feel like I’m...
Get rid of their junk equipment and put something decent in. Discord link is a group dedicated to doing just that. You may find info for your specific ISP.
If you do it right, you won’t even need their gear inline at all.
What are your hobbies, go find where people do then together and join in.
If you don’t have many hobbies, try something new that may pique your interest.
Unfortunately most people your age are going to be at parties, university, and sports. You’re limiting your chance of success by removing those options, do it’s going to be hard. You’ll have to put in the work.
Let me rephrase. The chances for friendships for people who enjoy these activities are significantly greater for people who don’t at.
OP could force themselves to attend, and possibly make friends that way, but it’s very likely the friends will want to continue to do those things.
I would also like to remind people that the way you are is not set in stone. You can change if you want to. I used to be an introverted loaner who worked on being extroverted and accomplished it. It’s what I wanted though, I idolized extroverts. This may not apply to OP
Most people can change, and do. Most people can’t prevent it. Change is one of the only constants in life.
You sound like you have extra challenges with autism. If this is something that is negatively affecting your life, I would recommend looking into a counselor or therapist.
We have a team of 6 and rotate on call regularly. I’m in the US and receive no benefit for on call specifically, but other regions do. My salary more than covers the inconvenience though.
I often daydream about how society would be if we were not forced by society to pigeon hole ourselves into a specialized career for maximizing the profits of capitalists, and sell most of our time for it....
Grappling is great because not only do you need to learn strategy, patience, set ups, push pull, etc; you also have to train your body to do what your mind is thinking.
If the body is capable but the mind is weak, you suck. If the mind is capable but the body is weak you suck. And if both are weak, your just like me!
Also it’s gender semi neutral. Women can absolutely dominate against men using skill. Same with Davids vs Goliaths.
Moving the port doesn’t reduce attack surface. It’s the same amount of surface.
Tailscale is a bit controversial because it requires a 3rd party to validate connections, a 3rd party that is a large target for threat actors, and is reliant on profitability to stay online.
I would recommend a client VPN like wireguard, or SSH being validated using signed keys against a certificate authority your control, with fail2ban.
There are exploits that can be installed without a mistake made on the users part, the user can make a mistake, and almost every user downloads and open files regularly.
Windows is less secure than the other options, but the other options are not impenetrable. The biggest botnets are made of Linux IoT devices, and nobody opened the wrong email on they’re thermostat…
What a virus scanner will do is check your filesystem and possibly program memory for known footprints. A tool like this can save you from becoming a node on a botnet or being crypto locked. More importantly, if you work from home it can save your company from this issue as well!
All software ads exploits. Antivirus software mitigates already exploited systems.
And yes, some antivirus programs are infamous for being difficult to work with, but also remember that any vector that allows a user to easily override antivirus features can also be done by malicious software.
Sounds like you were out of resources. That is the goal of a DoS attack, but you’d need connection logs to detect if that was the case.
DDoS attacks are very tricky to defend. (Source: I work in DDoS defence). There’s two sections to defense, detection and mitigation.
Detection is very easy, just look at packets. A very common DDoS attack uses UDP services to amplify your request to a bigger response, but then spoof your src ip to the target. So large amounts of traffic is likely an attack, out of band udp traffic is likely an attack. And large amount of inband traffic could be an attack.
Mitigation is trickier. You need something that can handle a massive amount of packet inspection and black holing. That’s done serious hardware. A script kiddie can buy a 20Gbe/1mpps attack with their moms credit card very easily.
Your defence options are a little limited. If your cloud provider has WAF, use it. You may be able to get rules that block common botnets. Cloudflare is another decent option, they’ll man in the middle your services, and run detection and mitigation on all traffic. They also have a decent WAF.
My stupidity saved me from being hacked today!
