Open Source Inspectors

Open Source Inspectors 08/28/2004 01:03 AM

Open source is not inherently more secure than closed source.  If you have doubts about the preceding statement, Dare Obasanjo's The Myth of Open Source Security series of articles is a good place to start.

Two main problems I see from my perspective with open source security are that a) there are no compelling incentives for open source developers to examine the code, and b) they have to examine everything.  Even if all the developers are coerced into doing so, not everyone will do a good job and everyone is not the same as everything.

On the other hand, blackhats have compelling incentives to look at the code and they only need to look at a fraction of the code developers have to look at since they only need to find one vulnerability to hit paydirt.

While I agree with Dare on most points, I think his suggested solution of adopting software quality enhancing techniques and practices is unimplementable for most open source projects.  As software developers and managers, we tend to focus too much on how we doing things and what we use to get things done, meaning skills, techniques, and tools we use every day.  The open source movement is not about those things.  It's not about how or what but who, people doing things together.

Quality of open source software cannot be improved by asking people to wear straight jackets and drawing lines on the floor telling people where to go next.  Instead, we need to see the entire open source community as a global ecology and find subtle ways to change the antfarm environment so that the ants people will naturally respond in the direction that improves the quality of goods they produce.

One such solution is the introduction of open source inspectors backed by inspector rating and reward systems.  An open source inspector is a software engineer whose responsibility is to inspect the quality of software.  Unlike developers who tend to stay with a small stable of projects for extended periods of time, inspectors are gypsies who move from projects to projects.

Each inspector examines code for quality and security.  Result of an inspection is a report and a rating assertion signed by the inspector.  Rating assertions by an inspector ultimately affects the proficiency rating of the inspector.  Each bug or vulnerability discovered in the code they inspected lowers their proficiency rating.

Achieving and maintaining high proficiency rating is the lure reward motivating inspectors to dedicate a substantial portion of their time to inspect open source projects of their choosing pro bono.  If they are any good, they will find plenty of paying customers.

In summary, I am advocating the use of social engineering over software engineering to enhance open source security.  Designing, developing, debugging, and deploying social forces is the ultimate engineering profession IMHO.  The only problem with such a profession is that lifecycles of such 'wares' literally means lifecycles.

Airport luggage inspectors policing
thoughtcrime

Airport luggage inspectors policing
thoughtcrime 03/15/2003 11:03 AM
A traveller flying to San Diego from Seattle found his luggage had been opened by the Federal Transport Security Authority, who had left behind a note telling him so, on which was scrawled "DONT APPRECIATE YOUR ANTI-AMERICAN ATTITUDE" -- a reference to the "No Iraq War" signs he'd picked up in a shop in Seattle.

So, the Feds are not only inspecting our bags -- and invading our privacy -- to ensure that they are bomb-free; they're now taking it upon themselves to chastise us for our political beliefs? What the hell does keeping bombs off airplanes have to do with winkling out protest signs?

Nothing like a little thoughtcrime policing to undermine the entire mission and credibility of the TSA. Of course, the TSA is maintaining that this wasn't the work of an inspector -- rather, someone at the airport cut the security-seal left behind by the inspector, defaced the "You have been inspected" card, and replaced the seal, all without being caught by the TSA itself (wow, that gives me a lot of confidence in the TSA's ability to secure the nation's airports!).

Nico Melendez, western regional spokesman for the TSA, said the note in Goldberg's luggage will be investigated, but he said there's no proof that a TSA employee wrote it. "It's a leap to say it was a TSA screener," Melendez said.

But Goldberg said, "It seems a little far-fetched to think people are running around the airport writing messages on TSA literature and slipping them into people's bags."

My Mini Mac shipped 02/01/2005 09:33 PM
I had two gripes about the mini mac as the Projector Computer (obviously that wasn't enough to not order it). 1) Lack of gigabit ethernet. With a small laptop drive inside it'd be nice to have as much bandwidth out as possible. Someone suggested that maybe I could get a couple hundred megabits out of the firewire with some sort of ethernet to firewire adapter. I haven't found that, but I remembered that there's "IP over Firewire" in OS...

Axim X30 624MHz $267 Shipped

Axim X30 624MHz $267 Shipped 09/08/2004 07:22 AM

So finding out you have a dead fan on your videocard is sort of bittersweet. It sucks because it kills your machine, but hey! New video card, right? (Actually, I just got a replacement fan, but I now have a reason to eye those upcoming Nvidia 6600 GTs.)

But I was over at Newegg buying the fan, which caused me to go check Slickdeals (don't ask, it's just a habit), and I noticed that Dell Home has a deal right now where you can pick up the Axim X30 624MHz version for just $267 shipped. It starts at $349, drops to 15% off automatically, and there is a $30 off $300 coupon (LV2S68M28T3PB1). It only has a half-VGA screen (320 x 240), but it has built-in Bluetooth and WiFi, and of course that fast processor. I don't even want a new Pocket PC and I'm toying with the idea of getting one.

Radeon 9800 Pro Video Card $155 Shipped

Radeon 9800 Pro Video Card $155 Shipped 09/16/2004 09:09 AM

New York electronics superstore J&R has the VisionTek Xtasy ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (128MB) video card on sale for just $150 with $5 shipping (New York state crew pays tax). The 9800 Pro isn't the most cutting edge video card out there today, but I can personally vouch for its continued ability to play all the newest games. It's still able to pump polygons in Doom 3, Tribes: Vengeance, and Rome: Total War just fine. Better than fine, actually, and I paid $300 for mine just six sad months ago.

Oh, and despite the dorky name, VisionTek is a fairly well-known brand, so I wouldn't worry about that.

Another chance to have Cory's books
signed and shipped to your door 06/01/2004 02:09 PM
Back when I lived in San Francisco, the nice people at Borderlands Books did this super-cool thing where they'd take orders for my books, along with details for personal inscriptions, then get me to sign them when I dropped round the store, and ship them for free within the US (and for a modest fee elsewhere).

Of course, that became a lot less practical last winter, when I moved to London. But you've got another chance to get a signed, inscribed book shipped right to your door: I'm swinging briefly through SF in June (and I do mean *briefly* -- sorry, no time to socialize) and I'm gonna stop by Borderlands and sign any stock that they have. If you get your order in before June 15, I'll sign your copy that week and you'll have it before July 1 -- pretty cool!

Borderlands' contact info is

866 Valencia St.
San Francisco CA 94110 USA
415 824-8203
888 893-4008

Call or email them with your order and payment details and they'll get you sorted out.
