7MS #325: Integrating Pwned Passwords with Active Directory - Part 2

7MS #325: Integrating Pwned Passwords with Active Directory - Part 2

Today's episode is a follow-up to #304 where we talked about how you can integrate over 500 million weak/breached/leaked passwords form Troy Hunt's Pwned Passwords into your Active Directory.

To get started with this in your environment, grab Troy's updated passwords list here, and then you can check out my BPATTY site for step-by-step implementation instructions.

The big "gotchas" I discuss in today's episode are:

  • If users update their password to something on the Pwned Passwords list, they'll see the generic "Your password didn't meet policy requirements" message. In other words, the message they'll see is no different than when they pick a password that doesn't meet the default domain policy. So be careful! I'd recommend training the users ahead of pulling the trigger on Pwned Passwords.

  • If you want to take, for example, just the top 100 words off of Troy's list and start your implementation off with a small list with:

Get-Content ".\pwnedpasswords.txt" | select -First 100
  • As it relates to "hard coding" a machine to point to a specific domain controller, this site has the technique I used. Is there a better way?

7MS #139: Securing Your Life - Part 2

Back in episode #93 I talked about securing your life - in other words, asking yourself "What would happen if I was dead right now? Do I have adequate insurance? Are my finances in order? How about estate planning?" This episode continues that train of thought, and I share some new changes I've made in my "life security" department.

Looks like I'm one of the few people in the world who did NOT love this movie. I found it painful slow and claustrophobic. #diappointed.

7MS #136: Python for Newbs

One skill that's been kind of a hinderance in my IT/security career is I have exactly zero experience in programming/coding. Zero. Zip. Nil. Nada. Nothing.. But I'm trying to remedy that in 2016 by learnin' me some Python, and I picked up a great book called Python Crash Course, which has been exactly what this newb needed. At the time of publishing, you can get 30% off with the coupon code CRASHCOURSE!
