good luck! I was an amazing day when I got my CISO position. It was an even better day when I left it :)

Thanks. I’ve added to my list to fix

ok. I set up threativore and added you as a moderator. I doubt it's as sophisticated as what reddit had to offer. The instructions are here: https://github.com/db0/threativore/blob/main/README_manual.md

Introducing old.infosec.pub (infosec.pub)
 

Hi all. As requested, I just added the mlmym interface to infosec.pub. It approximates the old style reddit interface.

So far, it has some.... quirks. For example, as far as I can tell, you cannot post with an "undetermined" language.

Yes. I will figure out how to get that working

Upgrade complete. Infosec.pub downtime/upgrade (infosec.pub)

Hi all. Lemmy 0.19.9 released today and it has some fixes I want to get in place sooner rather than later. I will be installing the upgrade in about an hour. The downtime should be minimal, but it’s also possible it goes horribly wrong and I have to run a recovery.

Edit: the upgrade is complete. It was quite painless.

I will install one today and send you the details

Lemmy’s admin tooling is… basic

Just to clarify - post with your moderator account.

Thanks. Can you make a post in that community? It’s the only way I know of to make someone a moderator

Sounds like a plan. Just let me know

As far as I can tell, @SqueamishOssifrage hasn't logged in to the site for about 2 years, and to be honest, I'd rather have a the community moderated, so if you want, I'll add you as a moderator.

How do you validate the responses here?

I’m not sure what you mean?

infosec.pub downtime - December 14 (infosec.pub)
 

The following instances will be offline briefly on Saturday, December 14 from 9am ET / 2pm UTC for approxmately 10 minutes: infosec.exchange infosec.town infosec.pub pixel.infosec.exchange books.infosec.exchange matrix/element.infosec.exchange relay.infosec.exchange meetup.infosec.exchange video.infosec.exchange infosec.press infosec.place fedia.io fedia.social elk,.infosec.exchange infosec.space convo.casa

The servers supporting these instances require a reboot. The Dell servers these instances run on take a very long time to boot, so I am estimating 10 minutes of downtime. It could be more, could be less.

We use live patches to minimize reboots needed for patching, however Ubuntu only provides livepatch support for a year, which is how long most of these systems have been running for.

Call for moderators (infosec.pub)
 

Hi all. This community was created for a spambot (tuxbot) but it appears to have some following. Is anyone interested in moderating the community?

Infosec.pub downtime for maintenance (infosec.pub)
 

Hello everyone. I will be taking infosec.pub offline for a while today to move the instance to a new, larger server.

Changes to Infosec.pub (infosec.pub)
 

I am going to be disabling image uploads and image serving, moving to moderated signups, and instituting some extensive block lists on infosec.pub due to the pervasive problems with CSAM attacks on lemmy instances.

No, it’s not happened to any of our instances yet, but I don’t need that headache. And if anyone does, I promise you that I will make it my life’s mission to see that those responsible are convicted and rotting in prison where they belong. ❤️

Edit: h/t to @infosec_jcp for pointing out the problem to me.

Please don’t enable 2FA (infosec.pub)
 

2FA in lemmy doesn’t work reliably yet. Please don’t enable it or you will almost certainly get locked out.

Note: it makes me sad to post this.

Blocking sh.itjust.works (infosec.pub)
 

Hi all. I am going to implement a block for sh.itjust.works. I am going to need years of therapy from all the nasty crap coming from that instance.
