Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in Google They Are Not Willing to Fix
Not directly relevant but interesting...
https://github.com/google/santa
This is a product developed by Google that has at least been utilized internally to some extent. It's not perfect, but my previous company used it and it does prevent unexpected unknown code from running in the background.
What it does not do is prevent someone from intentionally downloading and executing a library unless the upvoter actually comes to some demand that you do so. I found that it quickly became a bit of a "alert fatigue" where you approve things your coworkers send you so they can get back to work without properly vetting.

Is your company open to adopting open source tooling? There is a tool called Santa that could be used to block binaries from executing.
- Possible to restrict which applications a user can install/execute?

Uber Investigating Breach of Its Computer Systems
> Infostealers for Mac are a thing (Uber is a mac heavy shop I hear)
Block unknown executables on company machines. Google developed Santa to protect themselves: https://github.com/google/santa

Make post-MFA cookies and tokens short-lived. Require MFA re-authentication at least daily.
> or why even bother with that, if you're running code just make it a reverse shell.
All outbound connections should be strictly monitored, especially from production servers, which should have no ability to make outbound connections. With modern dependency management, that's harder for build servers, but still doable.

1Password Has Raised $620M
Looking around, on macOS there’s also MacPass[0] which looks decent (good enough that I could see myself contributing for the last few % of polish), and gnome-passwordsafe[1] looks reasonable on Linux (if a bit too mobile-y for a desktop app). The only notable hole in the platforms I use is Windows… perhaps it’s time to spin up a WinUI Keepass project.

Anyone found a suitable 1Password alternative yet?
Some clients let you define templates, e.g. the official KeePass client or MacPass.
-
So… native alternatives to 1Password?
• Apple’s Keychain Access is as native as you can get • MacPass is an open-source and native password manager • Elpass is not open-source, but still native (at least v1.3.4) • Remembear is still native (v1.4.13), for now
What are some alternatives?
