Steganography Challenge Didier published a fun steganography challenge. A solution will be offered on Saturday. https://isc.sans.edu/diary/Steganography+Challenge/31910 Microsoft Makes Passkeys Default Authentication Method Microsoft is now encouraging new users to use Passkeys as the default and only login method, further moving away from passwords https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2025/05/01/pushing-passkeys-forward-microsofts-latest-updates-for-simpler-safer-sign-ins/ Microsoft Authenticator Autofill Changes Microsoft will no longer support the use of Microsoft authenticator as a password safe. Instead, it will move users to the password prefill feature built into Microsoft Edge. This change will start in June and should be completed in August at which point you must have moved your credentials out of Microsoft Authenticator https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/account-billing/changes-to-microsoft-authenticator-autofill-09fd75df-dc04-4477-9619-811510805ab6 Backdoor found in popular e-commerce components SANSEC identified several backdoored Magento e-commerce components. These backdoors were installed as far back as 2019 but only recently activated, at which point they became known.

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech Show. Join Brian, Ed, and Jeanine as they discuss the latest tech news. We kick things off about the United States being under attack by robot vacuums. We then go down memory lane as we discuss our experiences with a blast from the past, remember Blockbuster Video! Laugh For Sight is only a week away, for tickets go here. Jeanine then fills us in recapping the NFB and ACB Uber and Lift protest that took place in San Francisco. Now that two of us have been running iOS 18 for a bit we discuss our experience with the new terribly designed photos app, and the age old dilemma of why in the world can you not rename a photo in iOS. We then discuss iOS 18.1 which will be dropping on October 28th and the limited Apple Intelligence features that will be there. Here are all the Apple Intelligence features that will not arrive until iOS 18.2 and beyond.. Have you tried the new Password Manager? It's not great, like most things Apple these days. And your PayPal balances will be coming to the Apple Wallet. Is it a good time to upgrade to the new iPad mini? Brian then discusses his new iPhone 16 Pro and Apple Watch 10. Yes, Ed had been quite for awhile, but now is his time to shine as he tells us about the International Blind Baseball Tournament he just competed in, and then his get away to Italy.

Nerd-out with us this episode, as we dissect the fundamental problems and challenges with traditional passwords.
In this episode of the Post Status Happiness Hour, host Michelle Frechette interviews Robert Abela from Melapress to discuss WordPress security. They emphasize the importance of adopting security best practices, the challenges faced by website administrators, and the critical role of user training in preventing breaches. Robert shares insights from a survey by Mala Press, revealing common security issues and misconceptions. They explore authentication methods like two-factor authentication (2FA) and passkeys, stressing the need for continuous education and awareness. The episode underscores that human error often contributes to vulnerabilities, highlighting the necessity of proactive security measures.Top Takeaways:Use Password Managers for Stronger Security: Both emphasize the importance of strong, unique passwords across different platforms. Using a password manager simplifies this process, generating and securely storing passwords, which helps users avoid the common mistake of reusing passwords across multiple accounts.Auto-Updates Are Essential but Need Careful Implementation: Auto-updates in WordPress, especially for minor updates, are crucial for keeping websites secure. However, using a staging environment to test updates before applying them to a live site is a best practice. It ensures that any potential issues can be resolved without affecting the live site.Backups Are a Must-Have: Regular backups are vital for website security and recovery. Although backups are not always seen as part of security, they play a crucial role in recovering from incidents like hacking or failed updates. Many web hosts offer backup services, making it easy to implement.Outsourcing Security Can Be Beneficial for Non-Technical Users: Businesses without technical expertise (e.g., small shops or bakeries) may benefit from outsourcing website management to agencies. These agencies have experience with hundreds of websites and can handle security updates and maintenance more efficiently, reducing the risk of security breaches.Proactive Security Measures Are Key: The conversation stresses the importance of proactive security practices. Having security solutions, policies, and a recovery plan in place before a security breach occurs is critical. Waiting until after a breach happens can result in higher costs, operational downtime, and damage to reputation.Mentioned In The Show:WordCampWordPressKathy Zant Nathan Ingram Black HatGive WPLiquid WebWP Accessibility DayTopher DeRosiaCate DeRosiaHero Press

Are there personality traits that make some people more vulnerable to cyberattacks? We lift the lid on this and more in a one-of-a-kind interview with cyberpsychologist, Dr Erik Huffman. Tune in, as Erik unpacks the human-element of security, how AI is transforming social engineering, and how we can turn humans from the weakest security link into our greatest superpower. ⛓️
Why should we stop using work laptops for personal use? Is your car sneakily selling your driving data? We answer all that and more in Watchtower Weekly.
Because our online accounts hold the key to our identities, finances, and other personal information, it's important to secure them effectively. This isn't as onerous as you may believe, but if you've neglected account security for whatever reason, you do have some work to do. In this second part of the series, Paul shows us how to use third party password managers. Host: Paul Thurrott Want access to the video version and exclusive features?
