Re: What Does Your Toilet Paper Roll Say About You?

Dave — Tue, 25 Oct 2005 20:10:41 -0000

It's all about dust on the roll. Pull the paper towards you from the top and the dust stays on the paper until you deposit it on your rear. Roll the paper away from you and the dust will be on the underside of the paper and more likely to fall.

I would argue that you are focusing on what is most important. You're understanding of the task. I commend your integrity. By the way, fuck winners, they just make the losers feel like shit so they can feel good for a second, all the while doing something that matters to nobody.

Re: Student vs. Competitor

Dave — Tue, 13 Dec 2005 16:15:21 -0000

I think the two are different parts of the equation though. There's mastering the skill and then mastering the game. Many people win the game but never master the skill. That's almost always due to them competing against other non-skilled people. They end up being the most skilled of the un-skilled.

I think focusing on the skill shows dedication, and once you master the skill, the game becomes trivial. Just like computing and everything else.

I think you've just found the line between Analysts and Engineers.

A growing trend in security is to lower the costs of it. Companies are starting to hire one or two Engineers and leave the rest of the work to Analysts. Like the System Admin and Operator scenario.

Re: 10 Questions To Ask During An Information Security Interview

"Don’t forget that security is mostly an attitude, or actually a way of life, and only secondly knowledge."

Well said.

My favorite interview bonus question is "how many fire alarm levers did we pass on the way here?"

I'd hire someone who got every technical question wrong but answered that one even in the ball park.

Re: Security Is Not A Technology Problem: Why Companies Need To Be Looking At Organizational Issues Instead Of Products

Dave — Fri, 09 Mar 2007 13:27:08 -0000

The issue of the organization standing "in the way" is more often an issue of perception. Security folks (consultants, employees, etc) often assume that they've been tasked with the most critical task.

"Make things safe".

That's rarely the case. Most often, especially for consultants, you've been brought in to meet the requirement of "best effort" or "due diligence". The goal for the company is to meet the invisible bar that determines if they've tried to secure their data or not. Their goal is to remain profitable, not to secure anything. If it costs too much or affects business too much, whatever you feel needs to happen simply isn't going to happen.

It's frustrating as hell, but 90% of the time, you're there because they *had* to have you come, not because they wanted you to.

Re: Security Is Not A Technology Problem: Why Companies Need To Be Looking At Organizational Issues Instead Of Products

Dave — Sat, 10 Mar 2007 14:36:44 -0000

Management comes to the security team to ask what happened almost always only because they'll be asked what happened. If they ask, and it becomes apparent that it was a persons direct fault, they have someone to fire/blame. If they ask and there's no one to fire, they at least can answer the questions they'll receive. If they're asked and cant answer, they'll be the ones fired. It's mostly CYA, rarely FYI.

The only empowered security teams I've *ever* worked with were ones who worked for organizations that had suffered serious loss due to an incident. All the rest were there to go through the motions. If securing the network/product/servers was going to be more expensive than deemed profitable, they were generally nerfed.

It's bullshit, but true. =(

I have heard of some orgs in the financial sector who operate on the idea that they only want to hear of their competitors incidents and never their own, but I've not met these people first hand. They're usually spoken about in the same context as unicorns and dragons =(

Re: Is Portknocking Real Security?

Dave — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 13:10:20 -0000

Hi Daniel,

You're an absolute saint for rolling around in piles of logic with people all the time. Sadly it never seems to stick to some people. They simply 'd|w'on't get it =(

You're absolutely correct about the merit of portknocking. We argued weather it was authentication or authorization when the paper was first published, but not weather or not it was part of security. Being two, hard headed, "security by philosophy" type people, that should've been your first clue you were right about it bing valuable. For sure one of us would have been arguing that it's just a bad idea.

This guys argument to you is that camouflage is ineffective. That all someone has to do is watch for you to put on your gille suit then follow where you move to. If someone is able to watch you do your knock sequence, you have more serious issues at hand.

Cheers,
-Dave

"You can’t purchase cigarettes or cooked meat with food stamps."

Having grown up here, where ~25% of the population receives food stamps (including my family at the time), I can tell you that you're mistaken. You can purchase almost anything with food stamps. What I suspect you meant to say was that you're not supposed to be able to.

Worse, that's inside the store. Outside, you can buy literally anything. Drugs, guns, blowjobs, whatever, at roughly 50 cents on the dollar.

It's a funny thing rules, only the "haves" follow them. The "have not's" could give a fuck.

Re: How I Became An Atheist

Dave — Sun, 03 Jun 2007 20:39:38 -0000

I agree, well written posts.

One thing that has always puzzled me about atheism though is the need to proclaim the lack of belief. I am a non-believer, or a person without faith, heretic, whatever it's called. I have been all of my life. I have never once had the urge to share my non-belief with anyone though. To me religion has always been what seemed to be mostly a fairly tail with a bunch of social impacts tied to it. It has always seemed to me that anyone, whether citing their beliefs or non-beliefs , is usually selling something. To me the measure of true disbelief has always seemed to be never discussing the topic outside of its affect on society. Personal declarations on the topic usually look to me like someone who cares about the idea way too much. Just like the tooth fairy, I couldn't care less who believes in it or not. I care so little about it that discussing the tooth fairy at all seems like a huge waste of time to me.

So I commend your writing here, it was a good read as far as reading goes. I urge you to return to writing about more important stuff like technology though. Your great writing skills serve the world much better when you spend time applying them to things that matter.

Cheers,
-Dave

PS. You know the drill when it comes to stuff I say. I'm not trying to be a dick.

Re: How I Became An Atheist

Dave — Mon, 04 Jun 2007 23:30:06 -0000

I don't think I'd agree with you that religion does more and more harm. I'd probably argue that it's currently doing less harm than it has in the past.

If you think it impacts your life enough, has screwed up your plans for scouting, or just care that much, then rock on. Perhaps a person or two will listen.

In the meantime, I'd still say your technical topics serve more of humanity in a beneficial way.

Cheers,

Re: So I’m Trying To Learn How To Drink Beer

Dave — Sun, 10 Jun 2007 23:28:29 -0000

Beer is an acquired taste. Know that now. Also, for the record, you started with the boldest variety of beer made. Probably a poor choice for popping your cherry on.

There's two main techniques/types to making beer, Ales (brewed at room temp) and Lagers (Brewed in a chilled environment). Most of the beers in the world are Ales. The one you chose, a porter, is the boldest. In order of flavor would probably be something like this.. (keep in mind that there's a TON of over lap).

From light to dark, or mild to rich: Pilsner, Pale, Golden, Tan, Brown, Dark, Stout, Porter.

Another thing to keep in mind is that for each of these, there's also a galaxy of variety in the bitterness.

If I had to recommend a decent starter beer for someone it would probably be a nice golden ale like Red Hook ESB.

Good luck and have fun, beer is a great thing, and something great minds have enjoyed since before humans had written language.

Cheers!

I was pretty sure Papazian listed them with Porter last, but it's been 10 years since I've checked his book. So I checked the wikipedia. Interstingly it says there's no difference at all but symantecly.

This looks like variation of line dancing or stomping, something that's been popular in black culture for thousands of years. Kids in Gary had been doing this forever and mutated it into a bunch of different stuff. Double dutch for example.

When it comes to dance, in most cases whitey will always be imitating.

Why can't crypto as an underlying design element be part of the idea? We're ok with other design elements being a core piece of what makes it Web 2.0 or 3.0 or 4.0 whatever. How about, instead of just Web 3.0 is the semantic web where data is labeled and sexy, we make it Web 3.0 is the semantic web where data is labeled and sexy and secure? We're just labeling a method of working with data. There's no reason at all security can't be considered an underlying design element of the idea.

Re: Was This Necessary?

"To use this picture as anti-war material is reminiscent of true propaganda."

Absolutely agreed.

As a Marine, I can assure everyone that the father of that boy knew full well and accepted the potential for that moment. I considered it, as does everyone when they agree to take on the obligation of picking up a rifle.

Is the photograph touching? Yes it is.
Is the tradition of presenting the flag to the "man" of the family necessary? In a warrior culture, like that of the Marine Corps, it is deemed to be. And I don't disagree.
What I would question the necessity of, is people posting this image all over the place. Making that moment into something other than the commemoration of a warrior is a tragedy in my opinion. Doing so doesn't help the child, doesn't change the outcome, and doesn't mean we don't need people like the Marine who's funeral we're seeing to volunteer to do the horrible things most are afraid to do.

I am not a fan of the war, but I strongly believe that the people who are trying to use the funerals of our fallen warriors as anything but a respectful ceremony are seriously hurting our nation. Regardless of opinion, the truth is that we *need* people to do the job of our military. If we mock them, they won't come. Daniel, surely as a veteran you must know this reality. I really hope you aren't trying to use this photo like that.

Grammar lunacy aside.. If people type http:// it's a probably good thing. That likely means they also type https://. Which is something we all should be doing when we want to make sure ssl comes into play.

Far too many people get hit by the assumption that even though the page they're visiting was delivered to them by http, that the login forms on the page will use https.

Re: Paying People To Be Good Parents

Dave — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 18:55:21 -0000

Welfare by another name. The difference here is that it allows for a market response rather than a government response. It's more successful to let people choose their own doctor and pay for it themselves than it is to use the same money (and probably more) to build a clinic because the doctors have to compete and the clinic doesn't. Competition again shows itself to be valuable. Don't get too distracted by the notion that the parents should be "taking care of their kids" anyway, that's not the main point. The same argument can be said of any kind of assistance, public or private. The "for the sake of the kids" part is just to make less people complain that New York is trying to change its public assistance program to one that allows market competition.

This sequence is very popular in music and film. All of the Stanley Kubrick are supposed to be using it as well. They call it the "Golden Ratio".

Re: Curiosity is the Receptor, Understanding is the Stimuli

Dave — Thu, 27 Sep 2007 14:57:14 -0000

"The more questions one has floating around in their mind at any given time, the more knowledge can be harvested from day to day experiences."

I have to disagree with this. The more questions floating around in ones head the more likely they are to not generate questions based on their immediate observations. Effectively, too many questions results in too much noise and not enough room for signal. As a result, very little ends up being harvested. Instead the most likely result is "knowledge" produced inside their mind rather than by exposure to day to day experiences. Self made knowledge is often inaccurate without the test of reality. If you have a million questions already in your head, and they fill your thoughts, you'll completely miss the opportunities to harvest knowledge from your day to day.

I argue that in order to most benefit from day to day exposure to data one must be able to generate questions quickly on the spot and at the time of exposure. Going around with a head full of questions is likely to be a major distraction as it's inherently related to things not in front of you.

It's good to keep the "pump primed" so to speak, but I think the definition of curiosity is to generate questions quickly based on observation, not to have them pre-fetched.

Re: Curiosity is the Receptor, Understanding is the Stimuli

Hey Daniel,

Sorry, now that I've had the chance to reread this post, I mis-spoke when saying we were in disagreement. And the notion of having all of the questions already formed up in your head was clearly a figment of that prior misreading. Not sure wth I was doing at the time, or if I was interrupted between reading and replying, but clearly I ended up on some alternate conversation.

Re: My First Cool Idea

Dave — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 00:47:38 -0000

If every "first" visit became a multiple query interrogation of the servers used to host the sites (versions, redirection testing, etc) before a host made a connection, you'd be wildly unpopular instantly I suspect. If you think the dig effect is specular today, you'll have seen nothing yet. This would essentially bring every new site under attack the first time it was popular.

If you're a believer in a score based system, my guess is that only the escrow/trust system scales. Everyone doing it on their own simply doesn't scale.

At least one of the prefixes you list above is Google.

AS | IP | AS Name
15169 | 66.102.1.1 | GOOGLE - Google Inc.

Depending on what you're using to build your access table, you may be able to just allow from the AT&T AS. Not sure if netfilter/iptables can work with Autonomous System Numbers or not.

If you're a believer in a score based system, my guess is that only the escrow/trust system scales. Everyone doing it on their own simply doesn't scale.

Hi Daniel,

AT&T Wireless is AS 20057

You can see all of their announced prefixes here:

http://www.robtex.com/bgp/as20057.html

At least one of the prefixes you list above is Google.

AS | IP | AS Name
15169 | 66.102.1.1 | GOOGLE - Google Inc.

Depending on what you're using to build your access table, you may be able to just allow from the AT&T AS. Not sure if netfilter/iptables can work with Autonomous System Numbers or not.

Cheers,
-Dave
