Scammers can easily phish your multi-factor authentication codes. Here’s how to avoid it

May 16, 2024 By Pieter Arntz More and more websites and services are making multi-factor-authentication (MFA) mandatory, which makes it much harder for cybercriminals to access your accounts. That’s a great thing. But as security evolves, so do cybercriminals who are always looking for new ways to scam us.A type of phishing we’re calling authentication-in-the-middle is showing up in online media. While these techniques, named after man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks, have existed for a while, they appear to be gaining traction now.It works like this: A user gets lured to a phishing site masquerading as a site they normally use, such as a bank, email or social media account. Once the user enters their login into the fake site, that information gets redirected by the cybercriminals to the actual site, without the user knowing. >> Full Article <<

Archie, the Internet’s first search engine, is rescued and running

A journey through busted tapes, the Internet Old Farts Club, and SPARCstations.KEVIN PURDY - 5/16/2024 It's amazing, and a little sad, to think that something created in 1989 that changed how people used and viewed the then-nascent Internet had nearly vanished by 2024.Nearly, that is, because the dogged researchers and enthusiasts at The Serial Port channel on YouTube have found what is likely the last existing copy of Archie. Archie, first crafted by Alan Emtage while a student at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, allowed for the searching of various "anonymous" FTP servers around what was then a very small web of universities, researchers, and government and military nodes. It was groundbreaking; it was the first echo of the "anything, anywhere" Internet to come. And when The Serial Port went looking, it very much did not exist. >> Full Article <<

Advice to Prevent Phish Tests from Overwhelming Help Desk

Every time we push a phish test our help desk is inundated with tickets from clients “helpfully” informing us that they discovered a phishing email in their inbox.We’ve tried distributing the phish test over the course of a month to keep volume down, but that just spreads out the tickets.We have a few ideas we’re kicking around, but wondering if others have good strategies already in place. Thanks!

Can we audit device per sites if Web Threat Shield extension for Browser is enabled or disabled?

Hi Webroot Team, Newbie here. Can we audit device per sites if Web Threat Shield extension for Browser is enabled or disabled? Also, if the Web Threat Shield extension is disabled from a device with Webroot client program, does it mean that if the User accessed a malicious site, Webroot would not block it? Thank you.

Is Webroot VPN going away?

Hi All,Curious if Webroot VPN is going away now that SaferVPN is being decommissioned as of Dec 15th, 2023. If readers didn’t know, Webroot VPN is technically NOT an in house product, but rather a reskinned/rebranded version of SaferVPN, but added some of their BrightCloud tech to it. I received a notice today that SaferVPN is recommending IPVanish and the website is saying they’ve joined with IPVanish. So does this mean, the Webroot VPN will be changing their product to update it’s look and feel of IPVanish? CuriousRegardsJohn H

Deprecation of old Endpoint Management Console

Good day,I’m curious if anybody can shed any insight on the deprecation of the old Endpoint Protection Console and what we are to expect in terms of changes as of November 28th? I have reviewed training videos and understand where to perform most functions using the new console and entities.Please understand that we have hundreds of a sites listed in our consoles and I have reviewed the videos.Currently if I wish to go to the console and perform work on a site, I can go to the Sites list and I can search and find the site wether that is ABC company or XYZ, then I can click the little pop out or go to Endpoint Protection and click the “Go to Endpoint Protection Console” and I can access the old console.So what happens when the existing console is deprecated? will this button go away? Will there be a new button that will jump us to the specific site in Entities?There are also some logs areas that I’m suspect will no longer be available.Currently I can see which users accessed a site in

Where is the new Console Documented? (6.x version)

I seem to be missing something. I assume I’m just blind.Where in the documentation is the new Business Admin Console documented? We’re now on version 6.7, yet all I can find is documentation for the traditional console.

Universal syslog connector: Run as Service

I was really excited to see this Application, we use Rapid7 and there was no good way to get this data into IDR. My excitement was quickly diminished immediately after I installed this software. Why create a software that is to redirect logs, and in this case to a SIEM and not make it run as a service? I tested it, right after I set it up, I monitored the service running and as soon as I logged off my admin account the service stopped and I can only assume the logging stopped as well. Is there anyway to run this as a service? I really don’t need to see the Scrolling CLI, that feature is pretty much pointless.
