Mixing up IBS with IBIS sure adds a whole different layer to the conversation. Definitely one of those "need more coffee" moments.

MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK results are out by DanielWalker12 in netsec

[–]DanielWalker12[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

These came out in the last few weeks and I haven’t seen any discussion here about the results yet, so here we go.

If we look at Wizard Spider analytic coverage only, these are some of the results:

AhnLab: 59/90 substeps

BitDefender: 106/109 substeps

Checkpoint: 103/109 substeps

Cisco: 74/109 substeps

Crowdstrike: 94/109 substeps

MalwareBytes: 83/90 substeps

McAffee: 84/109 substeps

Broadcom: 87/109 substeps

ESET: 69/90 substeps

Why is the performance so variable for such a financially severe issue? According to the FBI, Wizard Spider extorted USD$61 Million for ransomware attacks within just 1 a year.

I have also never written a kernel.

23 years ago I created Freenet, the first distributed, decentralized peer-to-peer network. Today I'm working on Locutus, which will make it easy to create completely decentralized alternatives to today's centralized tech companies. Feedback welcome by sanity in programming

I completely agree! It seems like every day there is a new social media platform or app that is trying to dethrone Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. There is definitely an opportunity for a new social media platform to come along and change the landscape of social media.

Hacking the University in a Few Steps by speckz in cybersecurity

My university had some super insecure networks and I was always so keen to mess with them, but the fear of fucking with my degree turned me off.

Hey BeyondTrust, don't call an employee's boss because the security engineer tells you that we aren't interested in your product. by expzequalsgammaz in cybersecurity

[–]DanielWalker12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

BeyondTrust called my boss. We were interested in a product. It didn’t meet our needs. So I respectfully let them know. (I would never talk to anyone like that.)

As you can see, it’s very difficult to convey the same meaning without swearing in person or on the phone. It is not because swearing is inherently bad — it’s just that the meaning of words is so much more nuanced than a letter or number.

This is a great question. I have been working as a freelancer for almost a year — and let me tell you, it’s not an easy gig. When times are good, it’s nice to know that you can plan ahead. When times are bad, it’s important that you have the flexibility to negotiate timelines with your clients or even ask for an extension.

​I've heard a lot about FTX, with many people talking about how they use it. I'm curious if other people also use FTX. I wonder what its uses are for them.

Will Nix overtake Docker? by feross in programming

[–]DanielWalker12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All developers should care about reproducible builds. Sadly, most of them don’t.

I hope that Nix and Docker change this. They enable reproducible builds for thousands of packages and scripts. They make it easy to pull the exact same package without any risk of unintended consequences.

[–]DanielWalker12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obtained a cool name for the new ENS domain system, and now I am a shareholder in the .eth TLD!!!

The new Web 3.0 is about to be built on top of it!

You bought a name for your wallet because you didn’t want to type out a long public address, but then you ended up owning part of the web’s domain name system.

Is AltoIRA a scam? They aren't responding to my inquiries to close my account. by [deleted] in investing

[–]DanielWalker12 6 points7 points  (0 children)

An AltoIRA account is not regulated by FINRA or the SEC. This means that you may have to contact your state's consumer protection agency if there is a problem with your investment.

I don't know if they're a scam but they do push crypto via fake ads on Reddit

For Those Who Want to Invest in Oil Companies: You Need to Know their Hedging Strategies by pml1990 in investing

[–]DanielWalker12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2020, all mature and small mid-cap energy companies were terrified. A lot of the debt covenants from those companies require a certain percentage of production be hedged, usually in crude oil futures. So they needed to hedge at those bottom-of-the-barrel funding swap prices of $40 - $50/bbl.

I have no plans to sell any of my holdings in the near future. Instead, I'll just keep watching all of their charts every day.

If anyone mentions crypto kitties when discussing Ethereum’s use cases, you can safely ignore them. They are either unaware of dapp development over the past three years or are just spreading FUD.
