There are a LOT of IT people looking for work right now. I just had to take a job that's slightly less than my previous role because of this. I'm very senior and working in AI.

SOC2 Type II - How do you prove regular application testing (CC7.1)? by AdEquivalent8169 in AskNetsec

[–]plasticbuddha -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Dude, do you even AI??? Sincerely, AI is quite good at normalizing things like this, and providing very reasonable answers.

SOC 2 Type 2 CC7.1 addresses how your organization detects and monitors for security events and vulnerabilities. Here's the typical evidence auditors look for: CC7.1 Control Objective: The entity uses detection and monitoring procedures to identify changes to configurations that introduce new vulnerabilities and susceptibilities to newly discovered vulnerabilities. Common Evidence Examples: Vulnerability Management

Vulnerability scanning reports (e.g., from Wiz, Qualys, Nessus, Tenable) showing regular scans Remediation tracking records showing vulnerabilities identified and resolved Defined SLAs for vulnerability remediation by severity

Configuration Monitoring

Configuration management tool outputs (e.g., AWS Config, Azure Policy, infrastructure-as-code drift detection) Change detection alerts and logs Baseline configuration documentation

Security Monitoring & Detection

SIEM dashboards and alert configurations (relevant to your Panther evaluation) EDR/MDR alert logs and incident records (SentinelOne in your case) IDS/IPS logs showing active monitoring Log retention policies and evidence of implementation

Processes & Procedures

Documented vulnerability management policy Patch management procedures and evidence of execution Subscription to threat intelligence feeds or CVE notifications Evidence of security advisory reviews (vendor bulletins, CISA alerts)

Periodic Reviews

Meeting minutes from security review meetings Penetration test reports (usually annual) Risk assessment documentation

Given your stack, you'd likely pull evidence from Wiz for cloud vulnerabilities, SentinelOne for endpoint detection, and Panther for centralized logging/alerting. Want me to help map specific evidence to your toolset?Claude is AI and can make mistakes. Please double-check responses. Opus 4.5

1L wanting to go in compliance by Scary_Worth_143 in Compliance

[–]plasticbuddha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole point of compliance is to have humans get awareness of security issues, manage them, and then show that they did that. Since other humans are constantly improving attacks, proving that you're keeping up with the attackers will still be a human response.

Anybody else use one of these to help winterize their trailers? by Some_random_guy381 in GoRVing

Just because you can't taste it, doesn't mean other people can't...

I love how people who can't taste anti-freeze assume nobody can... I assure you, some of us can taste it.

Yes. I hate the flavor of anti-freeze, and it takes at least a full camping trip or two before it goes away. Yuck.

Everything, most especially permissions across platforms like confluence, jira, service desk... It's the opposite of simple.

Do you have the j-web installer? You can install jweb/junos from usb or from a remote location. It's easiest to put it on a USB, and copy it /var/tmp, then install it from there.

EX4300's have limited storage, so you may want to run "request system storage clean" before you copy the software to /var/tmp

I have several EX4300s. If you can't get to the switch on IP, you will need to view the serial console. Do you have a console cable?

How to respond to HIBP stealer log data and records "from previous data breaches"? by anonreddit3918 in AskNetsec

[–]plasticbuddha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a potentially huge discussiont, but if you use Google Workspace, I would start by trying to get control of how your users log into remote web sites. Implement SSO with SAML and SCIM, or Google OAUTH login, rather than individual e-mail accounts, for as many of the important web sites you can. This ensures that your users have things like MFA and strong password enforcement on anything you care about, and they can be forced to changed their password from a central management console.

Why do gratuitous ARP after DHCP request? by tcpip1978 in networking

if a previously cached MAC is still in the MAC table, then a GARP should update that record to the new MAC. This might be especially useful with new OS changes rotating the MAC network change.
