Security vs usability in login passwords

Jakob Nielsen has a recent Alertbox against obscuring passwords with ****asterisks****. Some people has proposed several solutions, but none of them is both secure and usable. I think I've found a solution that is both.

Thinking of this as an information problem instead of (just) a security one,
what is needed to solve it is something like the hash codes as used in
cryptography.

You don't really need to show the *whole* password, just enough
information derived from it so that the user will notice if there was
an error. For an example on how it could work:

- Say, the chosen password is HOMELAND.
- As a simple hash, remove every second letter: HMLN
- Shift each letter one character down: GLKM
- For this result to be usable, combine each obtained letter with the
nearest vowel: GILOKOMO

If the user mistypes the password, a different check-word will be produced.
For example: HOPELAMD -> HPLM -> GOKL -> GIOUKOLO *error, the
password is wrong.


Of course, a real hash function should be used that utilizes *all* the
information in the original password, not half of it! The important
property of a hash function is that the original information can't be
recovered from it, so the password is safe. Much better for security
than a plain-text exposed password, isn't it?

This process has a small usability problem in that you'll have to
learn the check-word for every new used password, but login is such a
repetitive procedure that this learning should happen quickly.

Ingeniería social - cómo estar sobre aviso

Social engineering warnings. Comentario slashdot comment

Meta Moderation

Some warning signs that you may be subjected to social engineering:
- The person starts using your first name without you having ever met.
- The person refers to an authority figure in a jocular/friendly way, in order to make you draw the conclusion that the authority figure knows and trusts this person.
- They will try to appeal to your vanity. E.g. they may imply that they called YOU because you're so friendly and helpful. Ask yourself whether, if it really was this urgent, they would be calling you instead of those whose job it is to deal with this sort of situation. If you believe for one second that it's because of your demeanor, you're not only stupid but vain too.
- They mention a common foe. "You know how accounting is..." Yeah, everyone knows that accounting are bastards to anyone not in accounting, in every company in every country. That doesn't lend credence to you being on the same side.
- They mention an interest of yours. "I had planned to take my son fishing this weekend, but I guess I'll be working, trying to fix this". Why would they tell that to a stranger? (Especially if you have a sticker saying "BITE MY BASS" on your car.)
- If face to face, the person smiles a lot. Nothing disarms suspicion as easily as a smile.

Seguridad en tarjetas de crédito

Seguridad de las tarjetas de crédito (Dinero y Derechos nº 106) - Newsletter OCU Informa Contenido Global

Consejos para evitar problemas

• Firme la tarjeta cuando la reciba.

• No lleve encima el número secreto, y tampoco lo apunte en un sitio accesible. Es mejor que lo memorice, aunque debe evitar fechas muy significativas, como su fecha de nacimiento, números del DNI o de teléfono, etc.

• Sea cuidadoso con extractos de cajeros, recibos de compra y otros documentos donde pueda aparecer el número de su tarjeta. Piense que el número y la fecha de caducidad bastan para hacer una compra por teléfono o Internet.

• Si observa algún dispositivo sospechoso en el cajero, no lo use. Evite abrir la puerta para acceder a cajeros situados en el interior del banco, pues ése es un sitio habitual para colocar grabadores de tarjetas. Si quiere usar esa terminal, intente abrir la puerta con otra tarjeta de banda magnética (tarjeta sanitaria, de un club, etc.).

• Cuando use la tarjeta para pagar una compra o servicio, procure no perderla de vista.

• Plantéese la posibilidad de usar medidas de seguridad adicionales, como el envío de SMS al móvil cada vez que se use su tarjeta.

• Si aun así le roban o duplican la tarjeta, avise a la entidad cuanto antes, y confirme la comunicación por escrito, para que quede constancia. Denúncielo también en comisaría. Pida que le devuelvan el importe defraudado y exija los justificantes de todas las operaciones realizadas con la tarjeta: si los resguardos están sin firmar o si la firma es muy diferente, reclame, el banco está obligado a devolverle todas las cantidades defraudadas, incluso las que no superen el límite de responsabilidad. Si se trata de una compra a distancia (por teléfono o Internet), puede exigir que anulen el cargo, pues el titular no es responsable si el medio de pago no se presentó físicamente.

• A veces las pólizas de seguros de hogar cubren el robo o pérdida de tarjetas: compruébelo.

Ubisoft Steals 'No-CD Crack' To Fix Rainbow 6: Vegas 2

download mini images (on gamecopyworld.com as "fixed images"). These are disc images for the games, with copy protection intact, that are only a few megabytes large as they only have the crucial bits.

In the very rare cases when Alcohol can't manage a working image, I go to Game Copy World
[gamecopyworld.com] and download the no-CD crack. I don't like doing
that, though, simply because it makes it hard to apply official game
patches.

Recover Firefox Master Password with FireMaster Recovery Tool » My Digital Life

Security Xploded releases a password recovery tool named FireMaster to recover the Firefox master password. FireMaster is an open source software that able to recover the Firefox master password from the Firefox key database file by generating password on-the-fly using combination of various password guessing (cracking) techniques such as dictionary, hybrid and brute force method, utilizing the same password matching and verification algorithm used by Firefox itself described above, but in an optimized way. FireMaster calculates the hash of the generated password and uses the hash to decrypt the known encrypted string for the password, until it get one that matched the known string, which is the correct master password.

Compras online: cómo investigar al vendedor

How To: How To Research An Unknown Online Retailer

• Do they have a toll free customer service number and published hours of operation?
• Do they take credit cards? It is no guarantee of quality if they
  do, but it is one step up. I think you should generally avoid any place
  that only takes Western Union money transfers.
• Do they have a security/hacker prevention or testing certificate?
• Does the checkout process use an encrypted HTTPS page?
• Are the company Privacy and About pages blank, or do they look like
  they are from a default template for an online shopping cart that was
  just set up the day before?
• Search Google for the store name and words like "scam" and
  "customer service." It is not a good thing if all the entries are for
  people asking if a site is a scam in Yahoo Answers.

Paypal scams

I Was Scammed

With this particular auction I felt a little concerned about the funds and have heard about possible chargebacks after items were sent, so I called Paypal to verify my security on this situation. I talked with a representative about the situation and they assured me that once the money was cleared into my account that the buyer couldn't charge back the purchase.

I called in twice and asked the same questions but the second time I was in more detail with the questions. This time I was put through to someone higher up that assured that the money was safe in my account and could not be removed. They failed to tell me that they would just put my account at a negative balance and I would have to be the one to take the money out of bank account.

Timo a traves de Royal Mail

EOS 5D - Royal Mail Scam - The Photo Forum - Photography Discussion Forum

I had found an EOS 5D in mint condition + vertical grip for 1300$ on Craig's List. I contacted the seller, asking him a lots of questions to be sure everything is as mint as he said it was, well, so far everything was good, i was convinced that I was doing an excellent deal ! Then I received an invoice from the Liverpool Royal Mail post office saying that the package was ready to be shipped and that now I had to make the payment so that it can be shipped. The payment had to be done thanks to Wester Union to the account of a pretented employe of the Post Office. The invoice can be found here. You can actualy try the tracking number, it's working.

Revision semanal del coche

Cómo hacer una pequeña revisión al coche antes de iniciar un viaje

elementos básicos que se deben revisar antes de iniciar un viaje en coche.

Son comprobaciones que no nos llevan mucho tiempo (en 15 o 20 minutos podemos tener todo listo) y que nos pueden dar bastante tranquilidad en el viaje.

A continuación os incluyo los principales puntos que se tratan en el video, podéis imprimir la lista y llevarla para hacerle una pequeña revisión, que si bien hay que hacer durante todo el año, en viajes como los de Semana Santa es más recomendable todavía.

• Comprobar el desgaste de los neumáticos
• Comprobar la presión de los neumáticos, en frío, teniendo en cuenta si vamos a llevar más carga de la habitual
• Comprobar los flancos de los neumáticos por si tienen algún golpe
• Comprobar si se nota una fricción metálica en los frenos al pisarlos
• Aceite: revisar la fecha de cambio. Si hay que añadirlo, hacerlo en frío.
• Comprobar niveles de líquido de dirección asistida, frenos, anticongelante y limpiaparabrisas
• Comprobar que las todas luces funcionan y asegurarse que llevamos el juego de recambio
• Revisar que llevamos el gato, la llave y la presión de la rueda de repuesto
• Comprobar que llevamos a mano la documentación del vehículo, incluida la póliza del seguro y el justificante de pago
• Comprobar que llevamos el chaleco reflectante
  (obligatorio, en la guantera o accesible desde el puesto del
  conductor), los dos triángulos de avería homologados
  (obligatorios) y una linterna (recomendado)
• Estudiar la colocación de la carga,
  situando las maletas más pesadas en la parte inferior del
  maletero. Nunca dejar objetos sueltos, a 50 km/h un paraguas impactando
  contra nuestra cabeza pesa más de lo que parece.
