Disable Data Execution Prevention

Oct 9, 2024 By Ben Balkin In CalCom
Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is a Windows security feature that protects systems by preventing code from executing in memory areas designated for data storage. By ensuring only authorized programs can run in specific memory regions, DEP helps block malicious software, such as viruses, from executing harmful code. It operates at both hardware and software levels, monitoring memory usage to prevent exploits like buffer overflow attacks.

Oct 8, 2024 By Chris Lindsey In Mend
Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST), sometimes referred to as “pentesting in a box”, tests running code for a variety of issues that can’t easily be found by analyzing code with static scanning tools. DAST tools are platform and language agnostic—as long as you have a website or API they can connect to, they’ll get the job done, and find real vulnerabilities in the same places an attacker would.

Machine Account Password Changes - enable or disable?

Oct 6, 2024 By Ben Balkin In CalCom
When a computer is connected to a network (domain), it is given a machine account that represents that computer on the network. This account is used to authenticate the computer allowing it to access network resources and do tasks. Each machine account, also known as a domain member. has its own unique password for each network. Disable machine account password changes controls whether domain-joined machines automatically change their machine account passwords with the domain controller (DC).
