It's basically archaeology at this point. I keep an old 386sx 25Mhz laptop at my desk at work that still boots just to horrify interns and fresh grads.

Rick posted:In a zoom meeting where they had the idea of putting a condenser mic in the middle of the room so the whole room could be heard but the mic is so sensitive that it spikes everytime anyone in the room talks lol. This is terrible. This sounds like some exec tried to cheap their conference room with standard desktop mics, got pissed at the sound quality, and instead of doing the right thing and hiring a sound designer sent the intern to guitar center.

CommieGIR posted:As an infosec guy: This is a huge problem. Being the department of no and failing to build relationships and solve problems for your customers is how you kill security teams. Holy poo poo this. Ive just moved over to a security team in our org and our entire focus is on building a security engineering mindset and proactively working with teams instead of acting as gatekeepers. The results have been phenomenal. If you just no people you end up with clandestine workarounds and those are about 1000% more likely to be actually utilized in a breach because the instructions are typically plainly spelled out in some self-hosted team documentation in a no-auth environment somewhere

CommieGIR posted:Its amazing how people suddenly want to talk to you when they know you won't just shut them down but will help them figure out how to get what they need done. Engineers are surprisingly straight forward people, and if they've developed a workaround for "the right way", it's because the effort and time put into building and maintaining that workaround was less than the effort of dealing with the bullshit "the right way" comes with. Firstly, you have to close the hole that's utilizing that workaround, but if your solution doesn't come with "and make the cost of the right way lower", You're just inviting the problem back, and your engineers are now more annoyed and less likely to consider security a priority, but more likely a nuisance.

CommieGIR posted:This is happening in the US a lot more often too, many IT companies prefer a contract to hire approach for that exact reason. It's more like a contract to "We'd love to bring you on full time but we don't have the headcount, we can however extend your contract and have this same discussion next year, though"
