@bbaugh I’ve been trying to get my family on board with using passkeys via 1Password. The user experience is really good - even easier than passwords, so seems to be working
Show threadVery Hairy Jerry13h ago
@bbaugh not really. The breach isn’t new, we will see more of these fake breaches getting even larger, and it’s a reminder to improve our password security.

@hobbsc You know how the big guy in the group is called "tiny"? it's like that
Show threadVery Hairy Jerry16h ago
@BeefyMacNCheese all indications are that it's a bunch of older breaches rolled into a few new files.

@michaelharley it’s here: https://infosec.exchange/about

I have threads limited - meaning you can follow people there and they can follow you if you approve, and their posts won’t show up in your public timelines (unless you follow them). Infosec.space has a hard block of threads.net, but it’s not very widely used.

PostMortem: Assumed DOJ Montana Leak of Phone Dumps

Type of leak

Highly confidential information on a public SMB share without authentication

Threats from the leak

I see the following threats:

  • Integrity and Confidentiality of investigations into serious crimes compromised
  • Privacy of U.S. citizens compromised (very likely to contain most intimate data)
  • Providing 3rd parties hostile to the U.S. with blackmail material

@jerry #Alt4You A graphic in the style of a public etiquette sign. A stick figure is pictured throwing something away in a trash can. It's surrounded by the text, "It's called a trash can, not a trash can't"
