How Web Accounts Get Hacked
Hacking into an e-mail, Facebook, or other account is often a crime of opportunity. That is not to say talented individuals with advanced knowledge are not a threat, but it can be easier than you think to expose your password. For those that have had their account compromised in the past, one of these methods could have been used to get your password. The following is a short list of simple things you may not think about. In each, an opportunity is created... one you want to avoid. The idea is to tell you what not to do and why. 1. A recovery e-mail account is method a lot of systems use to help you get back into an account that you have lost the password for. Check your recovery e-mail account every three months or so. My advice is to check this account before reading any further if you have not done so recently. 2. An easy way to get hacked is to give a site your e-mail address and then use the same password at that site. 3. Pay attention to your surroundings. 4. 5. 6. 7. Closing

PHP RRDTool tutorial @ IONCANNON
On a number of occasions I've used RRDTool to graph network traffic and the like. A few years ago when I started using cacti I started wondering how to make the graphs myself. Creating the graphs on the command line isn't that hard once you know how to set things up and it turns out doing the same in PHP is just as easy. For this tutorial I'm going to assume you understand how to get RRDTool installed and working from the command line. If not you should take a look at this tutorial (if you are in a hurry look at the "A Real World Example" section) or any of the tutorials on this page. Setup and introduction You need to have PHP compiled with RRDTool support to run the following PHP examples. Then search for "rrdtool" in the output and make sure that "rrdtool support" is enabled. While going through each of the following steps you will notice that each call takes a couple of parameters and then one parameter that is just a string of options.

The Complete Guide to Not Giving a Fuck
Ok, I have a confession to make. I have spent almost my whole life– 31 years–  caring far too much about offending people, worrying if I’m cool enough for them, or asking myself if they are judging me. I can’t take it anymore. It’s stupid, and it’s not good for my well being. It has made me a punching bag–  a flighty, nervous wuss. Today, ladies and gentlemen, is different. We’re going to talk about the cure. Do you wonder if someone is talking shit about you? Well, it’s time you started not giving a fuck. FACT NUMBER 1. Yes, it’s really happening right at this moment. What people truly respect is when you draw the line and say “you will go no further.” Right. Regular people are fine– you don’t actually hear it when they’re talking behind your back. Thankfully, that’s not actually true. FACT NUMBER 2. This stuff is crazy, I know, but it’s cool, you’ll get used to it. How liberating this is may not even hit you yet, but it will. FACT NUMBER 3. Relationships are weird. FACT NUMBER 4.

Scareware, a type of malware that mimics antimalware software, has been around for a decade and shows no sign of going away. The goal of scareware is to fool a user into thinking that their computer is heavily infected with malware and the most convenient way to clean the system is to pay for the… A key part of any cybersecurity plan is “continuous monitoring”, or enabling auditing and monitoring throughout a network environment and configuring automated analysis of the resulting logs to identify anomalous behaviors that merit investigation. This is part of the new “assumed breach” mentality that recognizes no system is 100% secure. Unfortunately, the company at the… Windows Azure’s compute platform, which includes Web Roles, Worker Roles, and Virtual Machines, is based on machine virtualization. This case is my favorite kind of case, one where I use my own tools to solve a problem affecting me personally. Many of you have read Zero Day, my first novel.

Protection des données personnelles : oui… on se fout bien de votre gueule !
La politique numérique française, sur le dernier mandat présidentiel, c’est une LOPPSI, deux HADOPI, un peu de masturbation intellectuelle autour du droit à l’oubli, et des MILLIONS d’abonnés qui surfent en THD (à 30 mégas en download et 1 méga en upload, par temps clair et le vent dans le dos). Mais on retiendra principalement deux choses : un texte sécuritaire introduisant l’utilisation de mouchards électroniques et le cache sexe du blocage de sites web (LOPPSI), et un autre prohibant l’échange non commercial de la culture sur les réseaux P2P, amendes et coupures d’accès Internet à la clé (HADOPI). Aujourd’hui, c’est un jour comme les autres, comme tous les autres. On nous signale qu’un opérateur de téléphonie mobile, qui a la bonne idée d’indiquer le mot de passe (à 4 chiffres!!) d’accès au compte client sur toutes les factures (il y a des claques qui se perdent), est victime d’un superbe trou de sécurité.
