The leak was discovered on the company's AI GitHub repository and is said to have been inadvertently made public when publishing a bucket of open-source training data, Wiz said. It also included a disk backup of two former employees' workstations containing secrets, keys, passwords, and over 30,000 internal Teams messages. 

For decades, passwords have been the common backbone (headache) of authentication and are well known to lack in security while being frustrating and difficult to use. As we continue to see daily data breaches, the reality of moving away from weak static credentials and killing the password is upon us. Join this session to learn how FIDO2 and WebAuthn open authentication standards, in conjunction with YubiKeys, are solving the elimination of passwords at scale. Hear how organizations like Microsoft have implemented these standards for a true passwordless experience and find out how your organization can follow suit. You'll gain a greater understanding of how to achieve a modern and flexible security architecture through the use of FIDO open standards and hardware authenticators. 

Irresponsible ownership of data is the cause of many leaked emails, data, and other damaging information. Securing a user’s personal information is the job of software developers. If you, as a developer, can decrypt the information stored in the database of the system you are working on, then so can anyone else. In Cryptography in .NET Succinctly, Dirk Strauss will take readers through generating cryptographic signatures, hashing and salting passwords, and when and how to use symmetric vs. asymmetric encryption. 

Event based jQuery element resize

The plugin does not use any kind of timer(s) to detect size changes. It uses the resize event on (invincible) iframe(s) which makes it perform much better than other solutions which use timers to poll element size. The script detects size changes made from JS, CSS, animations etc. and it works on any element able to contain other elements (e.g. div, p, li etc.). To use it on other inline elements (e.g. images) you need to add a wrapper and call the event on it.  Demo

Identify the different types of hashes used to encrypt data and especially passwords.
hashID is a tool written in Python 3 which supports the identification of over 220 unique hash types using regular expressions. A detailed list of supported hashes can be found here.
