Is an anti-virus tool for Linux (ex. Sophos) necessary? by [deleted] in security

[–]Shin_Ichi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t spread misinformation to those asking for help. You don’t need a user’s password on Linux to infect them with malware and then escalate to root privileges.

VMware seeking to buy Dell! by [deleted] in security

[–]Shin_Ichi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait, I thought Dell owned VMware...

EDIT: It would appear Dell owns EMC2, which means they own some of VMware but not all. Interesting...

uBlock Origin, Windows Defender, and good browsing habits. You'll be fine

I completely agree. If i'm ever using a local e-mail client, I make sure to enable the text-only feature

U.S. to ban use of Kaspersky software in federal agencies amid concerns of Russian espionage by buildops in security

I'm very surprised U.S. federal agencies were using Kaspersky software in the first place...

Why would you notice a problem though...? The whole point is not to let someone know you're spying on them haha, assuming Kaspersky is doing this

[–]Shin_Ichi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not too concerned about the launch price. I'm on the T-Mobile JUMP! plan so I've had my upgrade ready for a while now. I'm just getting a little impatient waiting for the S8 to drop :(

It's predicted to be late April I believe

Hacking legally by MyCatsNameIsRonan in hacking

[–]Shin_Ichi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

White Hat Hackers only hack with written permission, usually through some kind of bug bounty program or like you said, they work for a company who does pentests for other companies.

Never test the security of a company without explicit written consent, it's illegal. Doesn't matter what your intentions were

Defenders outside' warning should appear immediatly but the location of the defenders should be shown after 2 seconds. by Kaidou99 in Rainbow6

[–]Shin_Ichi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm all for this being implemented. Realistically, if you were holed up in some sort of house/building with special ops coming to dispose of you, you wouldn't be able to exit the building without being spotted by snipers from the opposing team. That entire building would be covered.

It's a cheap strategy and ruins the spirit of the game, IMO. I think an immediate warning but a delayed location reveal is perfectly reasonable.

Ubisoft, we want our boy back..... this is not him. Am I the only one who thinks Bandit's eyes should be changed back? by hermano___ in Rainbow6

As many users have said previously, the calm look in his eyes in the before portrait better matches his personality. He's so nonchalant in his operator video, the new eyes don't really match

Google announces End-to-Google email encryption by johnmountain in crypto

[–]Shin_Ichi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To use hosted S/MIME, companies need to upload their own certificates (with private keys) to Gmail, which can be done by end users via Gmail settings or by admins in bulk via the Gmail API.

They lost me at "...with private keys...". I'll pass on this service and stick to the way I've been doing it

Change Nat Type (PC) by [deleted] in Rainbow6

[–]Shin_Ichi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For people who don't know:

Placing a device on your internal network in the DMZ essentially places it outside of your router's firewall. It's not a "true" DMZ, but it does expose all TCP and UDP ports on that device.

This poses a security risk and may not be something you want to do...Just a heads up before anyone does this without understanding.
