7MS #304: Integrating Pwned Passwords with Active Directory

I've been super pumped about Troy Hunt's Pwned Passwords project ever since it came out - especially when I saw a tweet about using it in Active Directory so that enterprises could essentially stop people from picking previously pwned passwords! That led me to explore the following two solutions:

Pwned Passwords DLL

This blog entry has everything you need to get started with this GitHub project. If you've got some coding skillz you can probably give everything a quick read and have the DLL installed and running in no time. If you're like me and have little to zero Visual Studio experience, head to my BPATTY site page about Pwned Passwords where I've laid everything out step-by-step!

Bottom line is this is a FREE way to check AD passwords against Troy's list of 500M+ previously pwned passwords. Awesome dude!

SafePass.me

I gave this commercial solution a demo and it worked fine as well. It's about $700 USD and comes packaged in an .MSI file that you simply double-click to install, then reboot the domain controller(s). It looks to do the exact same thing as Pwned Passwords DLL but without having to build a DLL or install it manually.

7MS #143: Friday Infosec News and Links Roundup

Here are some of my fav' stories and links for this week! * Burn it all...The New Security Fundamentals **(Wednesday, January 20 @ 1 p.m. CST)**: a free Webinar on setting up the "*core technical things you need to do for your security program*." I've attended many Webinars from the BHIS group and they're always informative and humorous. * Real World Web Penetration Testing **(Thursday, January 28 @ 1 p.m. CST)**: a $25 Webinar on going through "*a real world penetration test. We will explore the methodology and procedures Secure Ideas follows as we test web applications. The course will also walk through some tricks and tips on how to focus your testing on likely flaws*." I have seen four of their recorded courses before and found them to be *absolutely* worth the money I spent, so I'm confident this upcoming session will be no exception. * Fortinet SSH backdoor not much to say except if you use any of the affected products, update immediately as they contain an SSH backdoor: * FortiOS v4.3.17 or any later version of FortiOS v4.3 (available as of July 9, 2014) * FortiOS v5.0.8 or any later version of FortiOS v5.0 (available as of July 28, 2014) * Any version of FortiOS v5.2 or v5.4 * Hacker sentenced to 334 years in prison for operating a phishing Web site similar to that of a legit banking Web site. Moral of the story? Don't do that. * Don't use IE 8, 9 or 10 anymore! unless you like to live dangerously.

7MS #139: Securing Your Life - Part 2

Back in episode #93 I talked about securing your life - in other words, asking yourself "What would happen if I was dead right now? Do I have adequate insurance? Are my finances in order? How about estate planning?" This episode continues that train of thought, and I share some new changes I've made in my "life security" department.

7MS #136: Python for Newbs

One skill that's been kind of a hinderance in my IT/security career is I have exactly zero experience in programming/coding. Zero. Zip. Nil. Nada. Nothing.. But I'm trying to remedy that in 2016 by learnin' me some Python, and I picked up a great book called Python Crash Course, which has been exactly what this newb needed. At the time of publishing, you can get 30% off with the coupon code CRASHCOURSE!
