Proquest apparently stores passwords in plain text and when you use their password recovery feature simply emails you your login and password.

Why are people still doing this in 2019?

Open source projects were pretty neat back when you weren't expected to slave away on github every weekend for years to remain employable in this nightmare hellscape shithole industry.

is anyone else here getting hammered by "data sovereignty" at work lately? Literally every meeting about a new architecture or application is stalled with 20 minutes of "where is the data located. why does it have to be located there. can we not have the data there???"

for some stuff it makes sense definitely but it's literally anything, we had a meeting about loving github get held up like that. I've tried requesting the paperwork on where, when, and why it's important but I never hear anything back besides very vague theoretical situations that border on conspiracy theories and in some cases literal xenophobia.

I don't know if PuTTY is good or bad on a technical level because I don't use it very intensively but its user interface for configuring and saving connection details has always been horrific.

For those of us not in infosec and are just the regular programmers that are super annoying about security, why is it a joke?

CommieGIR posted:

PLCs and most SCADA/Industrial Automation has little to nothing in the way of actual security, and tends to utilize outdated OSs and Software to handle the backend.

Right now, the best way to secure a PLC/SCADA network is to not let it touch the internet or corporate network. At all.

Had an interesting meeting with a cybersec researcher yesterday and apparently:
- cybercrime is now a 1.3 trillion dollar industry
- the official word from interpol is that they don't give a gently caress about any amount less than 1 million dollars being stolen electronically and they have no known way of tracking individuals so as long as every individual amount stolen is less than that you're gucci
- the biggest emerging threat to business is literally randomly invoicing people and something called ego-phishing, which is where you send out invites for speaking arrangements at conferences (with a one time administration fee of course).

computers make you stupid, i guess. He went through a bunch of the most sophisticated attacks he'd seen and they were all variations of "make user click this button that owns all their poo poo"
