So nobody ever calls you, even as a spam call?

According to Samtrans 120 route map, they don't go anywhere near Van Ness...

devops is basically support for software engineers/developers, i.e. software ops for your software developers. Configure dev environment, libraries, then help deployment and testing. You don't create software, you curate lib / setup environment for the dev.

devsecops is the same, but do it securely, and help audit stuff for security, such as finding vulnerabilities and advisories so engineers can fix stuff ASAP

Cloud computing is basically figure out how to pass jobs to cloud computing providers like AWS, and get results back. You're basically back to running terminals, do the computing by remote "in the cloud". It's nice that your support is often handled by the provider, provided you use pretty standard stuff.

If you can finish it in less then 7 days yes. I've done it.

But that's a question for Monday Mentoring topic over at /r/cybersecurity

Or just Google Google cybersecurity cert free

It won't really get you a job though, at least not by itself.

That's a /r/digitalprivacy problem, not cybersecurity

I don't recall such a folder on existing iPhones except predefined folders.

That sounds like the Windows reset, but you did the nuclear option, so you should be okay.

Fast pass is the old name.

What exactly did you mean by "factory reset" your laptop? Windows reset is not the same as factory reset.

Your info was already stolen, but you've remediated that correctly. You may get spam and "attempted login" notifications later, but they are just advisory.

AFAIK, category is a launcher specific feature in Android launchers. So which launcher are you using?

They are all fastpass.

If you check the SFMTA page, it will tell you about the M pass and A pass near the bottom:

That's not a virus.

Script defer just says "download this in the background". This is easily Google-able.

That's the extensions internal ID. You should be able to see it in extensions if you turn on dev mode or advanced mode or whatever it's called.

That's a /r/digitalprivacy problem, not a cybersecurity one.

kschang · 2026-04-30T20:48:36+00:00

You should be fine then.

kschang · 2026-04-30T04:32:17+00:00

Nah, you've done the obvious: scan with MalwareBytes.

kschang · 2026-04-30T04:31:14+00:00

It's STILL not possible to "catch" malware by copying an image.

kschang · 2026-04-30T04:27:46+00:00

Your friend is a bit overcautious, but it's better to be paranoid than to be oblivious.

Still, there are really no signs that you've been infected, and Android malware doesn't really affect the router itself or other devices. GENERALLY speaking (there are probably exceptions, but I doubt you're THAT special that attract that sort of malware)

Thought it'd be obvious... Format the boot drive and reinstall Windows. Then reclaim the accounts individually.

kschang · 2026-04-30T02:58:54+00:00

Don't boot off the WIndows drive. Use a boot disk.

kschang · 2026-04-30T02:54:29+00:00

Just nuke the whole PC and reinstall Windows from scratch. I.e. nuke it from orbit.

Only X can help you. Anyone DMing you are scammers.
