Clock sync is critical for this across all backend systems that are involved in 
creating and verifying these codes. Should be a no-brainer but sometimes it 
isn't done.

Re: [MBZ] OT making a counter offer on a job

2022-11-25 Thread dan penoff.com via Mercedes
Most cyber security insurance now requires the company have MFA or they won’t 
underwrite a policy. In my opinion, cyber security insurance is a big waste of 
money. I can’t discuss specifics, but ours went from a few hundred thousand to 
nearly $1M in one year, the requirements to meet the underwriting criteria were 
far more involved and difficult than in the past. That, and as most insurers 
are wont to do so, if you did make a claim they would go through everything 
with a fine toothed comb and find a way to deny it.

My suggestion was to forget it and invest the funds in more/better security 
controls.

Cool! Good luck! Will you still be traveling?

It worked fine for about 15 minutes, then people could not log in. Basically 
the system is supposed to send a text and you enter the code, or use the 
Microsoft Authenticator app. Neither would work. Apparently whoever the genius 
was that set this up with thrive vendor that sends the texts did but get a high 
enough package or something.  Basically we ran out of texts. Same with the app, 
we used up whatever allotment they had for that. Brilliant. 

Yes I think it will be a good move.

Deploying MFA is a major undertaking, the county in FL did it last year for 
roughly 6,000 users. It’s still not 100% functional. The was one of the reasons 
why I bailed out, although it wasn’t my responsibility. Wise move on my part.

This is good?

Totally different company. I talked to them a couple of months ago and it 
sounded interesting, but they were not going to hire until the first of the 
year. Suddenly last week they reached out literally right in the middle of us 
having a major outage. We basically rolled out MFA and it was a disaster. None 
of our customers could log in at all. They had to roll it back but we also are 
having major slowness issues and other basic functionality that is not working. 
I am non stop having to put out fires. I don’t see how we will stay afloat much 
longer. I don’t know much about it, but I think we have old outdated servers, 
our our software is just patched together and it starting to come apart. Anyway 
I guess I won’t have to worry about it much longer.
