The holiday shopping season is taking off. This means that scammers have also revved up their engines. They’re primed and ready to take advantage of all those online transactions. Don’t forget to stay safe online during the buying frenzy that occurs this time of year. An ounce of cybersecurity prevention is definitely worth a pound of cure. It can also
Sadly this one took weeks because it involved Security Onion, Docker, Kolide Launcher, FleetDM and various bits that I obviously made up because I’m insane. If you just want the code, go here for the latest version What’s the problem? When you first install Security Onion, it generates a self-signed SSL certificate for the nginx web server and a self-signed
When doing a proof of concept for this amazing bundle of open source software, it became apparent that one small Achilles heel was the provisioning of a self-signed certificate as part of the install, which then leads to a number of ‘compromises’ with setup in the future. Just want the code? Go here To be more exact- the installer won’t
We had a VM behaving abnormally recently, and on investigation this was being caused by the disk being almost full. On comparison with another system on the same type of VM, this one was using 96% of disk space and the other 13% so what’s going on? I called out for help on Facebook, and Clinton Jackson, Benjamin Chennels-Webb and
*Please note- FleetDM has a paid option called ‘Teams’ which does a vaguely similar thing. This is not an attempt to get around a paywall, we’re still evaluating FleetDM and so far it’s been pretty awesome. If you actually want the ‘Teams’ functionality, get out your credit card! FleetDM is pretty amazing but it doesn’t handle ‘groups’ out of
We’ve had some major issues running Munkireport recently, and while switching platforms mid ride is generally a really bad idea, I just wanted *something* to work and I had always wanted to try FleetDM, so… I still love Munkireport and it’s beautiful graphing and helpful community. But my analytics engine uses SQL queries, and so does FleetDM, as it adds
If you’re buying a new Mac this year, what specs to recommend? I have updated each of the categories with new recommendations as needed. All prices lifted directly from Apple Australia MacBook Pro 13 inch models Models Updated June 2022- now with M2 chip! Entry- M2, 8 core CPU, 10 core GPU, 256GB SSD $1999 Nice machine, but I’d still
Because the Mac client for Netmaker (netclient) can’t be installed in /etc and doesn’t have some of the tools on other platforms, I needed to figure out how to diagnose and fix some issues that presented themselves. If you have anything to add please let me know. And to the Gravitl boys- steal away if you think it’s useful… *Warning-
To make an installer that will work on a Mac, there’s a LOT of requirements. But to make sure the project succeeds into the future we need to do all of this to make the project useful for ‘normal’ people. This means it has to be easy to install, uninstall, get working and stay working! You will need- 1. a
Well, the Foigus Autopkg driver I ‘built‘ in 2019 using this article finally stopped working in macOS Monterey. And I wasn’t sure the same process would work or be very durable this time around… After asking around (and thanks to Foigus for answering my questions) I thought I’d try something new, and it worked, so here is the method… Here’s
