  • Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica ft. Bryon Singh, RailWorks Corporation

    Gotham Technologies LLC

    “Identity theft is not a joke, Jim.” If you’re not familiar with this reference, please DM me as we have much to discuss. For context, the line above is said by Dwight K. Schrute, a character played by Rainn Wilson in the TV series The Office. In this episode a colleague impersonates Dwight, causing the line above. Once again, Dwight highlights the importance of account/identity security within an organization without hiding weapons throughout the office.

    If you ever played the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) World of Warcraft, you entered a fantastical world where you create a character, embark on quests, and explore vast virtual landscapes.

    In the early days of "World of Warcraft," the default account for players was the "Guest" account. The account had limited capabilities and was mainly meant for players who were trying out the game before subscribing to a full account. Not surprisingly, some players discovered that the "Guest" account had certain vulnerabilities, allowing them to exploit the system and gain unintended advantages.

In this blog, we will explore how the show's character, Tyrell Wellick, exemplifies secure asset and software management through version-controlled-infrastructure-as-code and accessing administrative interfaces via Secure Shell (SSH) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS).

  • System is Armed! ft. Bryon Singh, RailWorks Corporation

    Many homeowners invest in home security systems to protect their property and loved ones. These systems often include components such as alarms, surveillance cameras, and access control measures. They act as a deterrent against intruders and provide peace of mind by ensuring the safety and security of the household.

  • Um, Yeah, No! ft. Bryon Singh, RailWorks Corporation

    Gotham Technologies LLC

    I’ve heard this many times in my life from a bouncer at a club/event. Sometimes it was my ID, sometimes there were too many people already in, and sometimes it was because, well, they just said no.

    Nightclubs and events employ bouncers to control access and maintain security within the venue. Bouncers act as a barrier between the outside world and the controlled environment inside, ensuring that only authorized individuals are granted entry.

  • Do You Have Your Keys? ft. Bryon Singh, RailWorks Corporation

    Gotham Technologies LLC

    My girlfriend asks me this question almost every time we leave our home. Why, you ask? Because I’ve forgotten my keys more often than I should and then been locked out. This happens because our front door automatically locks when we leave as a safety precaution. Maybe I need to replace my Ted Lasso “BELIEVE” sign with a “Do you BELIEVE you have your keys?” sign.
