Security Now 529: Joe Siegrist of LastPass

Youtube Video

https://www.grc.com/sn/sn-529.htm

JOE: Well, I mean, I understand that people fear change, honestly. And change is a reality, though. We have to deal with it ourselves here at LastPass, too. Like every app is changing. The landscape is changing. How identity is evolving is changing. And when we look around and try to understand where to take this forward, certainly having more resources was a key to being able to kind of dominate the space. And that's what we want to do. We want to keep making the product better, and we want to increase the amount of people working on this, increase the amount of resources that we have to make the product better.

And I know people are kind of fearing that something is fundamentally going to change. But I'm here to say that that's not going to happen. I'm here to continue working on this, to keep pushing forward the vision that I've been working on for the last seven and a half years. I'm not just going to allow that to change. I really want to keep pushing it forward. And I really saw this as kind of the next step. I think, you know, a lot of the people that are complaining are very vocal because something that they had for free was taken away, and people don't like that.

Leo: I'm going to disagree with you, Joe. That's not the issue.

JOE: Oh, yeah?

Leo: The issue is LogMeIn, and I think a lot of people burned by LogMeIn in the past, by what LogMeIn did to Hamachi, what they did to their free product, I think there's a real feeling that LogMeIn is not going to be a good custodian of the great legacy that you've created with LastPass. Have they given you any assurances that you'll have autonomy, and you'll be able to continue to operate as you have in the past?
JOE: Yeah, absolutely. Just today the incoming CEO, Bill Wagner, was here, telling me that, look, you have the ability to say no. It's your vision. It's your team. We're putting resources behind that to drive it forward. And this is the largest acquisition by LogMeIn by more than six times; right? So they are going to naturally have to treat this differently than some of those other products.
And Hamachi is an interesting thing that you brought up because I was talking about that today as a product I used to use, and one that I think should be brought back and could really have a new life breathed into it when you consider you can tie it into some of the other initiatives that we have with identity and have it folded in, potentially, as an additional product. But I think just the size and scale and scope makes that different. And the people behind it, like this office is staying, all the people here are staying, everybody that was part of LastPass is coming onboard.

Server is up and running!

They should offer the Premium free to IT Pros for home use only, no support. They we can test this stuff at home and buy for work.....

Does it have anyway to replicate VM's?

Can I sync backups from one Unitrends Free appliance to another?

@DustinB3403 Thanks for your help! NFS is case sententive, it is mounted now!

How do we know when we being overly concerned with security?

For example, I have about 25 different Linux servers at home. Each of them have a randomly generated 25 character passwords (with UPPERCASE, lowercase, numbers and special characters. Root is disabled over SSH. Firewall is enabled, and only needed ports are open - some even have SSH blocked so you have to have console access.

In addition to all this, I also have a Edge Router X router. I only forward ports when needed, and I review at least once a week.

If we assume the Edge Router X is secure and working correctly, isn't all this other security pointless and just adding complexity?

I downloaded the wrong package, and now I feel stupid

The 64 bit package works fine.....

@dafyre What a good son!

AT&T sucks all around.

employees who never login.

Fire the employee. Problem Solved.

So I have it installed, and 1 hosted added (for now)

What's next? Clearly I can add more hosts, I got that

I was thinking I would get some pretty graphs? Maybe this just moniters without graphs?

Get all the information about your docker hosts, containers and images right in our web console. Monitor events, CPU, memory, network, and block I/O realtime statistics.

• Visualize all containers running in your cluster.
• Start, Stop, Pause, and resume containers with ease.
• Jump in for a live TTY terminal session of your running containers.

I honestly believe VMware is paying (directly or in-directly) people to push it's product.

One of posters there was singing the praises of VMware up and down, and could not figure out why..... Then I found out his company "won" $100,000 from VMware.....

So it's a bad idea to buy 1000 lighting cables for 1 cent on eBay?

@scottalanmiller It's 2/user/month. Not even close. I call that cheap.

Ubiquiti for sure. Make a map and get measurements.

I'll try to get it up tonight, hopefully.

Make sure this doesn't get taken out of context, it has a complete different meaning that way.
