Cybersecurity - Memes
- Severity: Critical
I have both done pentests and received pentest reports. My observation is that the perceived severity often varies between the tester and the customer.
- Cookie banner
Nothing tells me more that you care about my privacy than sharing my data with hundreds or thousands of companies.
- Denial of Service
Interestingly, the firewall got overload by the number of UDP packets and not by the bandwidth of traffic. See UDP Flooding on Wikipedia.
- Responsible Disclosure (other perspective)
Please don't act like the german conservative party:
> The CDU [german conservative party] lodged a criminal complaint against Wittmann after she told the party about a security vulnerability in the CDU-Connect election campaign app. (source)
- No backup, no mercy
Who could have guessed that having tested, well protected and current backups help when dealing with cyber security incidents?
- Your password has expired
This practice is not recommended anymore, yet still found in many enterprises.
- Does your company do phishing simulations?
We found out that 10% of our users entered their password.
- Password length requirement
Last week, I tried to register for a service and was really surprised by a password limit of 16 characters. Why on earth yould you impose such strict limits? Never heard of correct horse battery staple?
- We're probably not the only ones running outdated software
Fun fact: The outdated software runs on outdated hardware, too.
- Security is a process
Quote taken from a 24 year old article by Bruce Schneier that is still relevant in today's world.
