Ex-CIA Agent Raises $40M to Find Every 'Thing' on the Web in Just One Hour - <AUTHOR> https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2017/08/31/qadium-massive-internet-scans-in-an-hour/#72a3d8ea72c4 <comment><USER2> Shodan ([https://www.shodan.io/](https://www.shodan.io/)) been doing this for over 5 years, with a similar tagline: Shodan is the world's first search engine for Internet-connected devices.

<comment><USER3> From the article: "It's comparable to Shodan, a search tool for connected devices, but turbo charged and closed to the general public, Junio's previously said."

I think their big thing is speed. They are scanning the entire IPV4 space in 60 minutes which... is kind of impressive? I haven't thought about it but doing a port scan on my public network takes a little bit of time and I'm only dealing with couple dozen IPs.

<comment><USER4> ZMap claims to scan the IPv4 space in 45 minutes (although you would need some fancy hardware for that ;)

<comment><USER5> > although you would need some fancy hardware for that

You only need 1 Gbit/s upstream and a laptop to hit the 45 minute mark. On fancy hardware zmap needs less than 5 minutes.

One of the people behind the project presented it a 30C3 a few years back (including a live scan) in case anyone is interested: [https://media.ccc.de/v/30C3_-_5533_-_en_- _saal_2_-_201312281...](https://media.ccc.de/v/30C3_-_5533_-_en_- _saal_2_-_201312281245_-_fast_internet- wide_scanning_and_its_security_applications_-_j_alex_halderman)

<comment><USER4> Oh neat, I thought it was a 10G card they were using. Wow, 5 mins is amazing with 10G.

I'm just browsing their website some more, they seem to have lots of interesting libraries too, like [https://github.com/zmap/ztag](https://github.com/zmap/ztag)

"ZTag processes ZGrab output and annotates raw scan data with additional metadata such as device model and vulnerabilities."

</comment></comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER6> "Right now, Qadium can reach every connected device in the IPv4 space -- made up of the the millions on millions of IP addresses of web devices"

So can my phone?

<comment><USER3> They literally just described the internet.

</comment></comment><comment><USER7> > That massive-scale scanning (or what Junio prefers to call web-scale > sensing)

At what point does tech become a parody of itself?

<comment><USER8> I prefer to call it machine-vision infused cyber-fabric deterministic detection

<comment><USER9> Thanks, guess they'll add that to the homepage in 60 minutes

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER10> I think the key quote is "The ultimate aim of the service is to help companies determine if there are vulnerable devices on their network that could be exploited by malicious hackers, who could then pivot and compromise the whole organization."

I believe the founder was on Recode podcast within the last year. It was a great listen and really sold the product value prop. I work in healthcare and in my office alone we have 2 or 3 printers connected that IT isn't aware of because we couldn't get approval.

<comment><USER11> And with their speed they could probably run it every hour so that IT can act immediately on potential vulnerabilities, not just testing it every few months.

</comment></comment><comment><USER12> For those who it matters:

He wasn't a case officer (AFAICT), he was not an agent (somebody an officer recruits to spy), he was an analyst.

The distinction is important.

</comment><comment><USER4> What's the advantage over Shodan out of interest, or Zmap?

</comment><comment><USER13> This sounds like nothing new, other than a new way to take money from ignorant executives.

<comment><USER14> Yes, but it is new to ignorant executives. There is always a business selling an old thing with extra marketing.

</comment></comment><comment><USER15> I learned about Qadium last spring. Not sure how under the radar they were then, but I heard about it through a referral of a referral working on cyber risk.

If they are able to credibly provide a baseline for number of connected devices and percentage that are vulnerable, it won't be a huge step up from zmap, but it could provide some interesting data for security pros, regulators and insurance. Not sure how they get to the part about vulnerability of devices.

The cyber kill chain provides a nice jumping off point for a hierarchical model, but the kind of data necessary to really flesh it out is just so damn hard to find at the quality levels necessary.

</comment><comment><USER16> It's nice Peter Thiel found a new hobby other than testing hepatitis treatments in low income countries that is illegal in the US. Even though this is a scam and as many other people pointed out, something anyone can do, it's actually one of the less shady things Peter Thiel has done. Good job Peter. Way to be somewhat less shady.

</comment><comment><USER17> Am I correct in understanding that this just pops off a list of IP addresses reachable from whatever "point" you start the "scan" from?

Is there more info into "how"? How is this something that doesn't already exist? Other's have referenced Zmap, how is this an improvement over it, or even just a patient person with Nmap?

</comment><comment><USER18> _" Junio is particularly proud that none of his customers were infected with WannaCry, the ransomware"_

Uhmm.... so, it detects WindowsXP installations?

<comment><USER19> The majority of infected computers form WannaCry was windows 7, its a common misconception that windows xp was the most hit. But never the less I don't see how this scanner could of prevented that unless he added EnternalBlue etc to the scanner once smb was found to be open.

</comment></comment><comment><USER20> Am I correct in assuming that this becomes a total waste of $40m the moment people start finally transitioning to IPv6?

<comment><USER21> Eh, not really, it's just going to require an exponential increase in computing power. They already have the platform, in theory it would just be about scaling.

That said, it's kind of a huge scaling problem. If it really is a matter of throwing more hardware on it, and they currently use, say, 100 servers, they're going to need 429496729600 servers to get the same times they are getting now.

<comment><USER22> IPv6 is 2^96 times larger than IPv4. You'd need 100*2^96 servers. That's not tractable with a brute force method.

<comment><USER23> Maybe not that many, but still a lot more, if you first looked at BGP, and only brute-forced networks that were routable, rather than the entire search space.

Basically, before scanning, query and iterate all ASes advertisments and union present ranges, then feed that to zmap or something that can scan IPv4 and/or IPv6.

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER24> Does it not get worse the larger it gets or no?

<comment><USER25> If you google the number of Possible IP (v4) addresses you get an answer that kind of gives you more context for your question:

IPv4 uses 32-bit IP address, and with 32 bits the maximum number of IP addresses is 232—or 4,294,967,296. This provides a little more than four billion IPv4 addresses (in theory). The number of IPv4 available addresses is actually less than the theoretical maximum number.

So you would need to be prepped to hit 4 billion approx devices.

<comment><USER8> It would be good to know how many companies are using reputable addresses internal, unreachable from the open internet based on deduction

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER26> So nmap? Okay...

<comment><USER27> [https://zmap.io/](https://zmap.io/) is the tool of choice for scanning IPv4 space quickly. If you have good connectivity and the correct hardware you can scan a lot of space very very quickly.

</comment></comment><comment><USER28> So, build Google's index from scratch under an hour.

Good luck!</comment>


That VP of Product Management Is A Rockstar - <AUTHOR> http://blog.aha.io/index.php/that-vp-of-product-management-is-a-rockstar/

<comment><USER2> By nature I primarily work independently,(aka: an "Introvert")which doesn't need "tooting-ones-own-horn".

However after reading your article it was as if I was reading my very own personal philosophy..."Some of the best product leaders I've met seem to manage their teams effortlessly. They push without forcing, inspire without dictating, and generate loyalty without playing favorites. They demonstrate discipline while also knowing exactly when to not follow the process—all while leaving their egos at the door." Only after hearing the expressions of appreciation repeatedly from my team, did i understand I have successfully managed people! I didn't know. But they did come to work feeling respected for the professionals that I knew they were and hired to be. Myself, always thought my roles were "Project" as every new opportunity I've viewed. But because I've been driven by "the product", and communicated, I am changing my LinkedIn "brand" to "product" manager.

THANK YOU! YOUR words were confirmation for me,(introvert and extrovert sides). So I am humbly stating that yes, I would believe I am a good Product Manager; having had to wear my "Extrovert" hat. (did i mention I am a loyal follower of AHA! :-) Respectfully, thank you for the opportunity! Carla S.</comment>


The Mathematical History of a Perfect Color Combination - <AUTHOR> https://www.wired.com/story/very-mathematical-history-perfect-color-combination/ <comment><USER2> For anyone who is very particular about their color schemes: I'd recommend checking out the base16 project [1]. It's a collection of well-maintained color schemes (including solarized) for basically every text editor and terminal emulator. It makes switching between different schemes very easy, and includes tools for keeping your editor colors in sync with your terminal.

[1]: [http://chriskempson.com/projects/base16/](http://chriskempson.com/projects/base16/)

<comment> java-man I noticed it's more difficult to create a good light theme. The colors appear vibrant on a dark background, but things are very different on a white background: in order to have high contract text one needs to use dark colors of different colors, and it gets harder to tell the difference.

Do you know any good colors specifically for light themes?

Solarized family is too dark (for me, at least).

<comment><USER3> Agreed, but change the background to something lighter and solarized-light is not so bad.

Bonus: it's widely supported, so you only change one color

My suggestion is a light yellowish grey: BackgroundColour=236,231,225

Bonus of using light themes instead of dark themes: you can invert your colors at night. It is easy on your eyes, and the browser and the rest of the system also follow suit.

I recommanad to use NegativeScreen + a red matrix so everything is in shade of red.

<comment> java-man That's the thing: I don't want to have dim background. In fact, I would rather prefer a bight background.

The main reason that could be due to the fact that a bright background forces the pupil to narrow, making the text sharper for older people.

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER4> > neutral blue against a deep gray, the "color of television, tuned to a dead > channel," to borrow a phrase from Neuromancer

Oh my god. Really?! You have to be kidding me. This phrase means: the color of static - gray and moving with flecks of random color. It has _always_ meant this and always will. It's inexcusable that a Wired writer doesn't know this.

Even TVs that show the blue screen still show static for a second before the blue kicks in. I simply don't believe that anyone really doesn't know what static looks like, and this blue sky myth is just some kind of in-joke.

<comment><USER5> Author of the article here. I never interpreted that opening line as referring to static, but to gray of a blank television screen. Otherwise why not write "the color of television static?"

<comment><USER6> At the time he was writing, TVs didn't know how to blank out between channels. They just broadcast the noise. Blank television screens (when the TV was on) hadn't been invented yet.

(edit: maybe that's not true, perhaps in 1984 TVs with plain blue between the channels did just about exist? I don't know, in the 80s I only had access to the sort of black-and-white TV that meant his image came across to me exactly the way he apparently intended it)

<comment><USER5> Hm, maybe but that's not what I had in mind. I was thinking of the way an old Magnavox looks when it's not displaying anything, like when you've just switched it off but it's still glowing slightly. My recollection, which could be incorrect (I was quite young in the early 80s), is that it also looked this way if you switched to a cable channel that didn't exist (I realize in this case it's not technically "tuned" to a channel). Anyway, that deep but luminous gray is what the opening line of Neuromancer has always invoked for me, and what the background of Solarized Dark looks like to me as well.

As another commenter pointed out, Gibson did mean static, so I suppose he must have been thinking of a much lighter gray, I guess illuminated by the Chiba city lights.

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER7> This is about the Solarized color scheme from Ethan Schoonover. This is the color scheme I use and love and am grateful to Ethan that he made it. That being said, "The Mathematical History of a Perfect Color Combination" is a stretch - a big stretch. For one thing, going by Ethan's own description of the selection process, there was not much math involved:

 _Schoonover talks a lot about the mathematical nature of his color selections, but he picked the starting colors, a blue and a yellow, for very personal reasons. The blue reminds him of his long standing thalassophobia, the fear of very deep water. And though he says he doesn 't otherwise experience synesthesia—such as hearing colors or tasting words—the yellow invokes tastes and smells he associates with his childhood. "My parents are artists, I'm comfortable picking things for obscure reasons," he says._

For another thing, even if it was strictly based on a color circle, that wouldn't make it more "mathematical". The color circle of current fashion isn't much more than a historical accident and besides the basic order of the main colors there isn't much science behind it.

</comment><comment><USER8> I started programming on VT-100s, moved to the IBM monochome (green) and then amber screens (over-hyped in my opinion.) Younger guys and their EVGA monitors would program in yellow on magenta which I couldn't stand. But nothing is as bad for readability to my 60 year old eyes as all forms of gray on gray. Anyone trying to use a historical argument for this color scheme seems misguided to me.

<comment><USER9> Same here. I do not understand the desire of these candy colors and what purpose they serve. Purportedly, it helps people find function or variable names but, in reality, it's just a blur of colors, each of which can mean multiple things.

Give me white on black any day. I do like bold or gray on certain properties but only if it can be consistent and it's rarely consistent.

<comment><USER10> I agree so much. I always have to create my own colour scheme for this reason. I want almost everything to be white on black, or black on white, and then I have like three exceptions to that:

\- source code comments are a slightly more dim gray and literal strings are a slightly more dim green, because they're characters that can look like code, but generally have no semantic meaning to the program; \- structural keywords are an orangeish-brown to highlight the syntactical structure of the code; and \- types belong to a different world than the syntax tree, so they are a contrasting blue.

That's it. I don't want any more than that.

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER11> > "When Apple introduced dark mode for MacOS, I thought it was cool," says > Bir, the Virginia programmer and artist. "But I wish it was Solarized."

I'm not sure I understand what this means. Do they want UI elements to be Solarized?

</comment><comment><USER12> 1\. Read the article, entertain the premise.

2\. Install solarized from github on IntelliJ

3\. Realize the editor frame and the rest of the UI don't match.

4\. Back out install.

5\. Finally, conclude that I actually do not want all editors I use to have the same color scheme; the differences in appearance serve to cue my mind that each editor operates differently, does things in different ways, and I am already equipped with sufficient cognitive dissonance not to add another layer.

</comment><comment><USER14> I like the idea of symmetry of Solarized. I know how much work goes into creating a balanced color scheme. One thing that's super hard is to match the same perceived level of brightness across different hues, while also being aesthetically pleasing. To balance that out is a lot of work but ultimately leads to a more harmonious picture that's easy to read. I gave it my best shot for [https://www.monokai.pro](https://www.monokai.pro)</comment>

Throughout my career I've built web, desktop, server and embedded software and am just as accomplished at designing and developing a single use website for a dozen local users as I am a global microservices infrastructure supporting millions. I've helped numerous businesses of varying sizes in varying industries get their technology investment right and I can do the same for you.

Recent projects include:

\+ Successfully lead, developed and delivered complete greenfield and bespoke web site and back-end web platform for a leading UK children's charity, forming a core component of a complete brand refresh and redesign.

\+ Successfully lead project to develop industry leading anti-motor fraud website, web service, OLAP & OLTP system and data warehouse including one of Europe's largest anti-fraud databases for a Top 40 UK law firm.

US citizen. Remote only. Not willing to relocate, but open to a small amount of travel.

With 14 years of experience at software companies in New York City, I not only excel at the programming part, but I have a working knowledge of every aspect of the business: user experience, graphics design, product design, marketing, and business strategy.

Looking for projects involving data analytics and presentation, reporting, business intelligence, and web development.

I have worked for various types of companies: startups, Wall Street, and mature startups. I am aware that I do not work in a vacuum and so I always keep in mind the business needs and the purpose of the work.

I'm available during US hours and have a flexible schedule.

I've been working with Python, Django, Javascript, Angular, and D3.js for the last handful of years, so that's where my strengths lie at the moment.

What I do: Backend development / infrastructure

In the past I've run large-scale Debian installations doing devops before it had a name, and been responsible for servers in Antarctica. I have experience with a wide range of different Unix tools and technologies, at various levels of the stack. This gives me the ability—and the perspective—to pick the best combination of tools for any particular project, rather than simply treating everything as a nail because all I have is a hammer.

I specialise in working with non-technical entrepreneurs and providing a "CTO- as-a-service." I take care of the technical side end-to-end, leaving you free to work on your business, rather than worrying about servers and databases.

Previous work:

* University library data migration project, with a focus on completeness and validation. (Clojure, Elixir, Ruby)

* School data processing app (Elixir/Phoenix, PostgreSQL)

* Custom data dashboards (R, Geckoboard)

* High-reliability, long-term timelapse platform for inaccessible locations. (FreeBSD, Arduino, Python, Shell)

* Migration of existing Node.js+Firebase service to Golang+PostgreSQL on AWS

* Feasibility study investigating the possiblility of writing custom code to interface with a biometric timeclock (Common Lisp)

* Proof-of-concept hardware development for projects linking the physical and virtual worlds in real time (Arduino, Node.js)

* Project management webapp for construction companies (Rails, AngularJS, Bootstrap)

Willing to relocate: No

I've been doing full-stack work for the past 6 years, with Python and Django on the back-end and HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery on the front-end. I've also worked with the Django REST Framework and React.js. I'm intimately familiar with schema and data migrations, including migrations between Django projects. I've worked extensively with startups and with distributed teams and am open to occasional travel.

Linux Mint forum database compromised, all users urged to change passwords - <AUTHOR> http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=3001? <comment><USER2> The bigger issue is that the installer .iso images for Linux Mint were backdoored this weekend: [http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=2994](http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=2994)

</comment><comment><USER3> There is no reason to store an encrypted password outside of proxying to another system. Where was the key to the stored password? This forum looks poorly designed from a security perspective.

<comment><USER4> Rather than jumping the gun, it'd be better to assume good faith/do a bit of research

> "An encrypted copy of your forums password"

Likely is just a non-technical wording for "Your salted and hashed passwords" (yes, I don't like it either... but keep in mind the audience)

I never used the linuxmint forums, but by looking on the google cache (since the forums are down)

[http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:IxvZKvC...](http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:IxvZKvC6UGEJ:linuxmint.com/forum/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk&client=ubuntu)

It's obvious that they're using phpbb. Just like wordpress, and other prominent software written in php it has probably several flaws (security or otherwise), so I'd still steer clear of it... but it's safe to assume that in 2016 a major open source project has learnt how to properly salt and hash their passwords...

In fact, they're using bcrypt:

[https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb/tree/3.1.x/phpBB/phpbb/passwo...](https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb/tree/3.1.x/phpBB/phpbb/passwords/driver)

I don't know if this is the default hashing algorithm, and if they're properly salting them... it's even possible that linuxmint forums are misconfigured and/or that they're using an old version that defaults on md5.

But even if you use Argon2 or Scrypt, it won't do you any good if you picked

"Password1!"

or

"onetwothreefourfivesix"

as a password... it _will_ be cracked! (and thus the suggestion of changing passwords that might have been reused on other services is a perfectly good suggestion)

<comment><USER5> The key isn't just what software they were using for the forum, but what version of the software. Most sites that get hacked with these scripts are using woefully outdated versions that have various holes in them, usually because they don't want to have to replace/rewrite modifications or themes.

Based on the date, they might have been using a fairly old version of phpBB 3.
