I just got my hands on @tiraniddo's Windows Security Internals book <3

I ordered it through Blackwell's, that is a UK company but ships @nostarch books to EU too, so you can avoid dealing with customs yourself. Order tracking needs improvement.

I really try to like Firefox, but the last 5 minutes really captures the kind of papercut that happens often:

- I open a new tab and firefox informs me it has updated itself and needs to restart and won't allow any further operations until it does so.
- Fine, I close and restart.
- I reopen Firefox to find a brand new sponsored weather widget on my otherwise blank new tab page - from a source I would never otherwise visit.

Thanks for breaking my flow and the privacy breach, I guess.

We've completed a comparative security assessment of authorization policy languages: Cedar, Rego, and the OpenFGA modeling language.
If you are a language designer or a software developer, our AWS-sponsored assessment also provides recommendations for improving policy language design and for securing systems that use policy languages.

bert hubert 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦

As @echo_pbreyer reminded us, EU member states have revived their effort to force-install a child pornography scanner on our phones again. This idea was rejected twice before, but they'll keep trying. Here's an English transcript of what I said about this in Dutch parliament last year: https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/client-side-scanning-dutch-parliament/

It is shocking that after moving from Google workspace to Proton as the back office for our professional email adresses etc, all the major Dutch institutions are blocking us as spam. All our contacts have to whitelist us individually. So I think we are forced to go back to Google, where we had this problem occasionally but not as massively as now. It seems the reason is that Microsoft, used by almost all institutions in NL, simply blocks all Proton mail .😈 ( DNS=OK configured)

I would like to impress upon product managers that a code security review does not consist of me sitting down with the files in alphabetical order and reading each and every line exactly once in order and checking off whether it is or isn’t secure

This widely shared infographic uses a trick to make its message appear much stronger than it actually is. It seems to show a strong correlation between energy consumption and the wealth of a country. By using a logarithmic scale, the correlation appears much stronger than it actually is. I covered this before in articles, and now have also uploaded a short video ⚡💸🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xZ6CihdKu0 🧵

There is a known issue in the latest stable 4.1.5902 we wanted to make folks aware of. If you save a bndb while debugging, the database can get into an improper state and it may appear to lose user changes. The issue is resolved in the latest dev builds.

For those who are using the latest stable, you can either switch to dev or avoid saving during debugging (saving after debugging is unaffected). Impacted users can contact support (https://binary.ninja/support/) or see: https://github.com/Vector35/debugger/issues/612
