🚨 AI Code Assistants: A Double-Edged Sword? 🚨

AI-powered coding tools are revolutionizing development workflows, but they come with hidden dangers:

🔹 Hallucinated Dependencies: AI suggests packages that don’t exist.
🔹 Slopsquatting Attacks: Malicious actors register these fake packages, leading to potential security breaches.
🔹 Automated Installation Risks: Some AI agents might auto-install these without developer awareness.
🔹 False Legitimacy: AI-generated summaries can falsely validate these malicious packages.

🛡️ Stay Vigilant: Always double-check AI-generated code and dependencies. Trust, but verify.

🔐 Over 60% of data breaches come from insiders—not hackers.

In tech, the threat is closer than you think.

From late-night logins to employees snooping in places they shouldn't, insider threats often leave clues.

Virtual flash cards for the key terms for all of DevOps Institute’s exams. I took the glossaries from all their public study guides, deduplicated them, converted the courses they appear in to tags and added an exam they missed.

Whoa, just checked out the latest GitGuardian report. It's wild how many secrets popped up *again*! 😳 We're talking millions of credentials just floating around out there.

And here's the kicker: it's not *only* about human slip-ups anymore. You've got more and more 'Non-Human Identities' (NHIs) – think bots, scripts, AI agents – churning out secrets too. And honestly? Those NHI secrets often get way less attention than the ones people handle.

As a pentester, I bump into this constantly. Find an old, forgotten API key lying around, and *boom* – system's compromised. 🤦‍♂️ Yeah, automated scans are definitely helpful, but nothing beats having solid secrets management in place. It's absolutely crucial.

So, how's everyone else keeping their secrets locked down? Got any killer best practices to share?
