so who would be the owner? Linkedin lost a lot of data, this has been dumped. Linkedin is the controller. Say I collect the data as part of threat intel gathering. Do I become the controller, or am I now effectively in possession of stolen goods?
if we parse the data..even if it isn't ours would have not become processes of that data at that point anyway? "processor’ means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller."
Does anyone know if windows has a RDP client that does not lock the remote machine? I am sure I used one a few years back, it looked like a native windows app (the UI was the same, when in view mode the bar would turn green.), but I cant seem to find it via searching.
I am about to purchase the ISO27001/27002 standards, the ISO website has them catalogued as ISO/IEC 27001:2013 and ISO/IEC 27002:2013, when I go to purchase they say I can also buy them from the BSI store. The BSI have them catalogued as BS EN ISO/IEC 27001:2017 and BS EN ISO/IEC 27002:2017. Is there any substantive difference between the text of the standard between the ISO version and the BSI version?
mmm…Why would whois give me two different results for the same domain when called via a website? (who.is and Virus Total) Could one be down to historical information?
@TomK. It would be a checklist/Q&A that they complete in advance of a contract being signed. It is really to provide a level of due diligence and to infom decision making.
Also I don’t think this really fits the format for a full question as it is opinion based and very broad on SE.infosec? If any of the mods/longtimers disagree I’ll ask it as a proper question.
If I was to audit a webapp plugin vendor in advance of using their service what things should I be asking about? I’ve got permission, encryption, patching process, on-going support, client side scripts, code execution, webapp server code execution. Also if they scrape any of my webapps data, who their security contact is, how they notify of a breach, etc. Have I missed anything obvious?
@M'vy I read this quote from an threat intel sharing platform “This is an information disclosure vulnerability, for example retrieving data from memory. It is NOT a remote code execution vulnerability - you cannot use this to run malware.” Im not sure how accurate that is however.
@M'vy I think it impacts some AMD and ARM processers as well. I was asked the question if internet facing servers should be patched as a matter of priority, from what I can tell you need to have some access on the target before you could exploit this vulnerability. I just wanted to confirm that assertion.
Does anyone know if there is a network based attack vector for Meltdown? from looks of it, the attack vector looks local only? kb.cert.org/vuls/id/584653
Hi All, does anyone know if 2 x Windows Server Essentials can run as Multi-Master Domain Controllers? from looking at the documentation, it appears as if it doesnt? But ive seen some suggestions that it is possible under certain conditions.
Hi all I was wondering if someone could answer a quick question for me, when I run “ls -la” on particular directory all the files have a number at the start of their listing,. I.e “4 -rw-r--r--”, what does that number mean? In this example the number 4.
