[bookmark=https://twitter.com/maddiestone/status/1268218293640290304]Dear #Infosec

I've been "warned" 3x that if I keep posting that Black Lives Matter, I'm unhireable.

If I, a white, cis, straight, US-born... woman w public evidence of my work can be "unhireable" due to just saying #BlackLivesMatter, how can Black hackers even hope to be hired?[/bookmark]

Hey - #infosec people:

is there a way you tend to communicate "I don't care about what the design says, this is what we are actually doing"

I don't know about #infosec, but on the #Fediverse, this is pretty much the ActivityPub/Mastodon dichotomy from what I understand.

That is definitely the case. The drift there seems analogous to "This is what the W3C says" vs "This is what Chrome does" (insert my unearned opinion that Mastodon is a bad actor here)

In this case it's "Our design doc says this, our implementation says this, but since the spec says this, that must be what it is"

Hypolite Petovan 9 months ago friendica (via ActivityPub)

Where do you place "the spec"? In "design" or "implementation"?

silverwizard 9 months ago friendica

Sorry, "the spec" is the design doc, I just used two different words because I am a monster

If there's a known difference between the design doc and the implementation, then the design doc is pretty much useless and should be corrected, because it probably would be cheaper than correcting the implementation.

silverwizard 9 months ago friendica

Well, that's the point. I am trying to get them to admit the difference *exists*

"Hey, if I sign up with this password, it passes an error! What's the actual rules for this? And shouldn't we expose them to the client?"

"Oh, we have no rules"

"Why can't I sign up with this terrible password then"

"oh, because it's terrible"

Hypolite Petovan 9 months ago friendica (via ActivityPub)

Ugh.

We *seem* to be doing it right, but don't communicate what we are doing, and need to do that

Update the spec, add user-facing errors, etc... you know the drill.

silverwizard 9 months ago friendica

All I get to do is say "this passed security review" or no

Well, did it?

silverwizard 9 months ago friendica

Luckily I had a manager step in and say if someone gets an error on signup that doesn't explain how to fix it, then isn't not passing design, so I was good and can keep trying to upload 10GB passwords

Cybersecurity is no longer merely a tech issue — a nuisance to be offloaded on IT. It’s a business problem too. This is especially true as more and more businesses transform digitally. https://t.co/mFyWEOmvoo @Unix_Guru @CIOJimLove #CISO #cybersecurity #infosec #security
