From user to root in less than 16 minutes…

Or: Why you shouldn't buy cheap garbage!

• Personally, I consider such firmware to be criminally neglectful and worse than what Cisco did it's NIST-certified Govware Backdoor known.as DUAL_EC_DRBG…
  • But hey, TP-Link doesn't do NOBUS-Backdoors, so that's why they need to be banned...

The sentencing of Nicholas Moore (one-year probation) serves as a case study in credential-based breaches. By compromising one set of credentials, Moore gained access to the U.S. Supreme Court, AmeriCorps, and the VA."

This highlights the persistent danger of "low-effort" entry points into high-value targets.
How are your organizations hardening against credential stuffing and lateral movement in the public sector?

@kkarhan Interesting, I don't really see Moxie as an idiot. How about #Tor (product of Naval research Lab) #Govware?, and #I2P. Who is behind that?

What do you think of them?

What tools do you suggest, use?

I kind of liked #LiberteLinux, but one person supporting a tool is not sustainable, really.

There are reports about government acquiring software for "breaching encrypted-messaging applications such as #Telegram and #Signal."

They most likely talk not about breaking the encryption or the apps, but about connecting your phone via USB to a machine trying to hack into your phone's operating system (iOS, Android).

So, changing the app makes no difference. Stick with your encrypted messenger (and Telegram is not one of them, despite their claims)

@thomasfuchs I'd still keep #WindowsXP airgapped like any #Windows machine just because it's #Abandonware & #Govware...
