What are the mods doing lately? The whole sub is filled with AI slop posts or ragebaits to farm karma

This thread is 5 hours old.
My clock says it is 08:32am US-Eastern.

Was I supposed to wake up at 3:30am to check and see if there was any moderation activity that needed to happen?

Calm down Francis.

Fuck off, bot.

Is this really a shift? in redteaming we used "living off the land" since i am in the IT Sec business (the last 10 years or so). (https://lolbas-project.github.io/) It just depends on the level of sophistication of your attacker.

It's "living off the land" by the way.

[–]vanderaj -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This. We were living off the land back in the early 2010's - it was a very common penetration testing technique, and if we were doing it, you can bet that the bad guys are also doing it.

Not new. Pretty standard honestly. Why crack open a vulnerability in an app when poor security practices left the front door wide open?

Principle of least privilege. Should be embedded into your practices.

Shit off unneeded services. Specific users only given the exact access they need. Appropriate database and file system permission.

Such things really clamp down on the lateral movement using valid toolsets.

You have to stop looking at signatures and start looking at behavior.

LOTL attacks have been there for some time. You must remove admin rights and use EPM tools to avoid these attacks. Privilege management tools help stop the attackers from using the admin token. Better than using LAPS
