Utterly pathetic, if unsurprising. The obnoxious thing though is that this: is literally a recommendation to download stuff directly from...
I'm guessing that X-Plane is doing something that causes a kernel oops, and GrSec is crashing things to prevent the "possible compromise." GrSec...
I generally see Firefox render pages perhaps 50% faster than Chrome. The problem is it's not as responsive while rendering large/heavy pages like...
@Peter2150 check out the GitHub summary. This is server-side software, not aimed at end users. https://github.com/F-Secure/see So, a framework...
^^^ This. If you actually want to protect your data, use drive encryption.
Now that is interesting. I wonder how much the prevalence of bad honeypots skews e.g. research statistics on remote attacks.
By way of example: [ATTACH] On unencrypted HTTP connection (and FTP as well in nontransparent mode), you can block file downloads by extension....
From the articles, it seems like this is mostly used to establish a persistent presence undetected, once a workstation has been compromised? In...
@deBoetie A word of warning, if you're saying what I think you're saying. In my experience, it's easy to accidentally merge later changes in the...
This may have more to do with implementation than concept, as far as scripting languages. PHP is infamous for being a hackjob.
o_O Drivers are for ring 0, and are typically given the .sys extension on Windows. And I doubt that Agnitum itself is a backdoor (though there...
IIRC, Pentium 4 era machines are still common in the developing world. I know 64-bit gives you a huge address space, better memory protection, and...
From the data sheet This sounds pretty dubious IMO. The .text segment of a program (static code) could be monitored this way, but the stack and...
@Fox Mulder Thank you for the clarification! Agreed that X11 is a mess. ... Mind you, what I've seen of Wayland thus far does not make me a fan....
@mick92z That's a good idea, and the thought has crossed my mind. It would at least give her a way to surf securely, even if it couldn't run her...
The one I can actually answer at this point: For an older laptop, I'm guessing yes. I've gotten very good results with PATA to SD card adapters...
Unfortunately other stuff came up, and she was not able to reclaim her computer yesterday... @deBoetie My preference would be Xubuntu Live or...
Source ports -> I don't think that would really be relevant, except maybe for web servers where the connections are all on privileged ports....
A reverse shell can be served up on any port. It could even use a common protocol on a common port - HTTP on port 80 maybe, or HTTPS on 443, or...
So it turns out the Norton thing was an oversight on my part... Hurray I guess. That at least is kind of solved. @TairikuOkami based on what I've...
Hi @gorhill I've noticed an extension in the Chrome web store called "U block For Origin", supposedly from "www.xp0099.com". Summary is "Ublock...
So... Resurrecting this thread several months down the road. To outline: tragedy struck the friend's family, completely out of the blue, and...
That's "mandatory access control" on Linux. I would suggest trying AppArmor - it's easy to configure, and much finer grained than most Windows...
@Windows_Security You might want to report that on the Informaction forums? I'm having trouble reproducing it, but I've got a rather top-heavy...
Groovy... I have one of those. And it doesn't look like coax cable modems are available in PCI card form. Sigh.
