SN893: Password Change Automation

from Security Now - 16k MP3 Hosted by TWiT

This week we examine several more serious Microsoft security failures which have just come to light, and a new useful Windows security feature that was just added. The new Passkeys logon technology received its own website to monitor its progress, and Cloudflare logs another record breaking DDoS attack. Signal drops its legacy support for SMS/MMS on Android, Fortinet attempts to keep a new bad authentication bypass quiet, the White House proposes work on an IoT cybersecurity seal of approval, and the US Treasury department levies a hefty fine against a cryptocurrency exchange for not caring who they send money to. I have some updates on SpinRite, my just-discovered ZimaBoard and two pieces of listener feedback. Then we're going to finish by examining a new standardized means of accessing websites' password change pages. And we also have our first-ever Security Now VIDEO of the Week.
