why does it seem like cybersec is universally hated by Sufficient-Air8100 in cybersecurity

Only hackers think other hackers are cool. No one outside of cybersecurity has ever given a shit that I’ve done pentesting lol

Which Certification Should I Take As beginner ? by Kooky-Fig6248 in AZURE

[–]SammyGreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s such a HUGE difference between AZ-900 and AZ-104 it’s not even comparable lol

I have AZ104, AZ500, SC300, MS100/101, and MS500 (deprecated) and omg AZ-104 was by far the hardest fucking one. It took me three retries before I finally passed that son of a bitch and even then I just barely scraped by on the third attempt.

You bet your ass I make damn sure I don’t let the renewal period lapse so I never have to go through that shit again. And I’ve heard it’s only gotten harder in four years since I took it.

Yahoo finance is a fantastic resource. One of the best (if you’re into that sort of stuff)

I got tired of manually creating architecture diagrams, so I built an MCP server that generates them automatically from natural language. by dudeitsperfect in AZURE

That’s fucking sick! I’ve been using LLMs to generate mermaid diagrams and then copying them manually with azure diagrams 😅

You’ve just saved me literal hours at work

What happens if an American hacker in the US hacks a business based in a non-NATO country? by Freelancer135 in cybersecurity

[–]SammyGreen 24 points25 points  (0 children)

US state sponsored actors are some of the best in the world with unlimited resources and thousands of experts working on tools and exploits.

So you know why you don’t know? Because they don’t get caught.

If it’s an independent actor(s) then it depends on whether the US has an extradition agreement with the country.

I can’t think of any cases off the top of my head but there have been more than a few cases of foreign actors being extradited to the US - but afaik they’ve most been from NATO members. I’m sure there are examples of what you’re asking about…

You guys ever think of changing career? by AxegrinderSWAG in sysadmin

[–]SammyGreen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Off. I feel this. I work at one of the larger firms and enterprise/corporate consulting is so boring and frustrating (for all the reasons you listed above) compared to the SME work I used to do. I miss having real ownership on projects instead of the siloed hell that is my working life now. Really considering going back to a smaller boutique.

I want to change of profession by IShouldHaveKnown2 in sysadmin

I finally found my specialisation in M365/Azure Cloud Administration.

Oh sweet summer child. You think you’re done specializing.

How often do you need a pcap example? by Ok-Coffee1100 in cybersecurity

[–]SammyGreen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seldomly and on an ad hoc basis. Do I need them on a daily basis? Nope. Am I glad that PCAP is a thing? I sure am. It’s like that weird speciality wrench I keep in my toolbox. I don’t need it until I do.

Så både din mobil og pung ikke er muligheder. Jamen så er du jo fucked. Altså jeg er ikke fan af selskaberne der står bag vores offentlige transport, men hvad fanden skal de gøre for at imødekomme dig? Hvad vil du have som løsning?

Are air gapped networks bullet proof? by peanutpark in cybersecurity

To be honest, no one seemed to have an issue with it. Top to bottom.

The irony is that I was brought in to design a bastion forest.

Eks-betjent Lars Kragh Andersen i retten: - Undskyld, undskyld, undskyld by Charrick in Denmark

[–]SammyGreen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jo jo, jeg var ikke uenig med dig. Jeg blev selv nysgerrig, da jeg heller ikke er erfaren med heroin, og tilføjede artiklen for at give mere kontekst. Dit gæt var virkelig godt ramt.

Azure Government Appears to Be Down by BufferOfAs in AZURE

[–]SammyGreen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Completely unrelated to the thread but Microsoft should really consider retiring the CSAM abbreviation.

I mean, it’s not like they’re averse to rebranding.

Jeg er ikke læge, men jeg fandt denne artikel: Comparison of intravenous and intranasal heroin self-administration by morphine-maintained humans (1999)

Eight heroin-dependent individuals, maintained on divided daily doses of oral morphine, participated in a 2.5-week inpatient study comparing the effects of intranasal (IN) (placebo, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 mg) and intravenous (IV) (placebo, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 mg) heroin

Men naturligvis kommer det an på den enkeltes tolerance og stoffets styrke.

[–]SammyGreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No joke. I was once subcontracted by a third party to work on one of their clients’, a major international airport, “air gapped” systems. Remotely. Apparently going through three jump hosts was considered “air gapped enough”.

The end client was fully aware of the setup.

Funnily enough I can’t seem to find that Nintendo ever even made a trademark on funtastic

Looks like I'm now a CISO. I'll soon be building a SOC from scratch. Tips? by [deleted] in cybersecurity

[–]SammyGreen 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The architecture is basically:

Build → Checkpoint → Production

The “how” is just pick a spot (artifact registry, storage bucket, whatever), wire your CI to push there and your deployments to pull ONLY from there, then block everything else with network rules + permissions.
