The SolarWinds incident was detect because of bad opsec by the operators who performed the FireEye op. I would image the capability was developed by an expert group in some intelligence agency, and then used as an entry point by a different

I love the idea but is scaring me a bit security wise. This can be a really hidden persistence method for malware. Imagine the following scenario - memory only malware lands on my computers, identifies the keyboard, uploads a malicious firm

Nice article, thanks for the tips at the end! Personal perspective: I've been trying intermittent fasting for about four years, and found it helped a little in the beginning but then petered out. What happened was I did not eat until

Exploits are possible even without DMA. Windows had a slew of USB stack exploits, ranging from the serial and modem drivers to HID device and more. There have also been in the past (and probably still exist) exploits over serial lines, over

I love hearing great news about the space industry, that the way to get us humans into outer space. Can any one a little more knowledgeable explain the difference between this 3d printed engine and RocketLab's one? Thanks!

I don't think this should surprise anyone. The FBI has multiple methods for accessing locked phones: using physical exploits like those provided by Cellbrite, or through baseband attacks - i.e. first attacking the cellular modem and f

Love the post, good luck! Re “Productivity equiation” from Ali Abdaal: Productivity = Useful output / time x f (where f is the ‘fun factor’), but treating f as constant is wrong - even fun projects can get tiresome . A good measure m

The only reason this was detected was very overt behavior - opening AD popups. So I guesstimate for each one of these we have 10 that go undetected. This means the whole ecosystem is broken, as there is no reason this will happen only for

I get that breaking packages is a bad user experience, but the Linux community at large should start paying more notice to security-first software engineering. Learn a little bit from Microsoft's experience - they made 100% backward co

People need to understand that stopping Covid will take much more then a year, and can easily extend for 2-3 years. 24% of the USA population is under 18 (from google). The article states that at least 75% of the population must be vaccinat

Really nice and clear. One addition: the final example uses ProxyCommand, I find ProxyJump much more useful: you can specify multiple hops clearly and even specify different private keys for each hop.
