Phoenixan posted:i'm starting to miss having a menu bar instead of tasks I want to perform being maybe on the left or maybe on the top or maybe even sometimes popping up on the bottom for some loving reason literally the single worst idea from the Avalon/WPF/XAML world was to get rid of the menu bar in favor of "task oriented" interfaces that are entirely unique per application after all you wouldn't want users to wind up with transferable skills would you?

flakeloaf posted:what would happen if the thing called code red/sasser happened I'm betting future versions of windows will be tighter on the default firewall configs for home/domain/private zones to force you to manually configure things like inbound SMB/RPC/WMI to protect from lateral network movement. But will need some kind of wizard/tool to help with configuration because most windows janitors are hopeless

well they already prompt you to select a zone on a new connection, the default is public which blocks smb and network discovery, and drops icmp

the problem here isn't firewall defaults, it's unpatched machines on managed networks where smb would be allowed anyway

those three default zones I listed all allow SMB exposure client to client, which is bad enough on a small business network but absolutely stupid on a corporate one with the interface bound to a DC. the threat is propagating inside the zone, its only a matter of time before something gets inside it. the name of the game is endpoint isolation.

the default for "public" zone does not allow inbound smb, it also disables smb discovery unless you override it

But will need some kind of wizard/tool to help with configuration because most windows janitors are hopeless pretty sure both win 10 and 2016 disable a lot more inbound stuff by default these days. But all that leads to is people disabling the firewall cause they cant figure out how to turn on what they need.

Yeah, there should be a wizard in the GPO editor for the firewall config so you say "This is my CIDR for DCs, let them do DC stuff. This is my CIDR for administrative workstations, let them do the normal administrative stuff. Everything else is a client or server with inbound deny with exception for admin workstations and outbound allow". It's needlessly complex and intimidating as-is for people just starting with it and the default configs for domain/private zones are too lax to block worm propagation in a meaningful way.

I should probably make some stub policies with zones defined and export them for the sec thread to use.

tbh for firewalls it should be a realtime management thing instead of gpo similar to how youd do it w/ other endpoint management systems.
