On my list of things to try: Cisco Duo MFA
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/10/29
At the time of writing [Wayback/Archive] Two-Factor Authentication & Data Protection | Duo Security is supposed to be free for up to 10 users.
That seems to be an excellent opportunity to re-learn MFA things as it has been a while since I have done big work in that area.
Duo was one of the very many Cisco acquisitions and I wonder how it fits into the Cisco landscape.
Documentation bits to start at:

(Note the video skips a lot of steps, not limited to these risks: these cells can explode and vapes can be a biohazard)

AI generates covertly racist decisions about people based on their dialect | Nature
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/10/17
LLM are just statistic text generators which depend on the texts they have been trained which and alleviating this usually makes things worse: [Wayback/Archive] AI generates covertly racist decisions about people based on their dialect | Nature
Related:
- [Wayback/Archive] LLMs produce racist output when prompted in African American English
- [Wayback/Archive] AI worse than humans at summarising information, trial finds “A test of AI for Australia’s corporate regulator found that the technology might actually make more work for people, not less.”
Of course these issues are not limited to natural language LLM: artificial computer language LLM are also full of training issues that are likely very hard to resolve. What if covert organisations succeed poisoning LLM platforms with malicious code?

Kris on Twitter: “On a scale of 1-8, how pessimistic is your code?”
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/10/17
Interesting series of tweets about what to harden your application for in a reply to [Wayback/Archive] Kris on Twitter: “On a scale of 1-8, how pessimistic is your code? “Write code to provision a Google Chrome Extension for an end users Mac.”” which I saved to [Wayback/Archive] Thread by @isotopp on Thread Reader App (actually the scale is 1-9):
Extensions are stored in a 32 letter directory in the user profile in the Extensions directory.
i.e.
/Users/kris/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions/<32letters>
- The User has set up their Mac so that their home directory is not in /Users.
- The User has set up their Mac so that the home directory name is different from their login user name.
- The User has multiple user profiles in Chrome, so that the path is not
$HOME/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default, but some other profile directory.- The target profile is not “
Default“.- The target name is not a directory, but a symlink to some interesting system config file or directory instead.
- The target name already exists, and is a file, not a directory.
- The target name is a file, and has permissions set to
000(chmod a-rwx).- The file has an ACL that denies deletion to the user.
$ chmod +a "$USER deny delete" <32chars>- The file has been
chflags‘ed toschg(immutable; irrevocable, unless the machine is rebooted to single user mode).
The above idea was for Chrome Extensions, so the below links are relevant, but it could be extended to any installer use case.
