Studying choices
Hi everyone, I am currently in my last years of school and I am trying to make a decision on which way to go. So first of all I am very interested in it security, I just love every aspect of it, so I am in between 2 option. The first one would be to go directly to university where they offer Info sec such as RoyalHolloway!, Warwick! or try to get into a company where they offer both studying and working at the same time, which gives me the advantage that I already real-life work experience when im finished. So, what is your opininion and what else can I do before I start studying.Thanks in advance.

What apps/software specifically are affected by Spectre and Meltdown? (on macintosh)
Due to issues between the latest OS update on Mac and full-disk encryption (can't quite remember the details at the moment) I want to learn more about any ways to guard against a spectre/meltdown attack without updating the OS.Are there techniques for avoiding an attack? Maybe not having more than one thing open at a time? Having any sensitive information kept on a USB instead of locally stored? When is it appropriate to have the USB plugged in (if at all)?Or is any attempt to mitigate / avoid an attack completely futile without updating OS and firmware?Thanks for helping a bro out. :DP.S. If anyone knows answers to the above, but in regards to an unupdated windows machine using Chrome, feel free to share some knowledge with that as well! :) And linux too (I use a few different computers for work)

What's the future of online authentication (Or, why the heck do I have so many passwords)?
I've opened more than 240 online accounts over the years which means I have hundreds of passwords I need to track. Obviously, I could never memorize them all so I end up using a password safe (KeePass!). Many of these (~35) are highly sensitive accounts (bank, etc.).Password safes are the only realistic option for managing credentials at this point (the alternative is to use the same password everywhere... bad idea). Despite being the best option, they leave much to be desired. For one thing, all a hacker needs is my master password to have access to literally my entire life. Scary shit!So, my question: what do you think online authentication will (or should) look like in 100 years? Will everyone just be educated enough to manage their own password database? Or will a better system be developed and adopted and if so, what will it look like?Password alternatives that I'm aware of:Many sites do some sort of profiling of your browser and look for things that don't look right (more as a backup to passwords than a replacement). As I understand, they check things like your IP and the geographic area it's supposed to be in, characteristics of your browser and what other sites you use, and any cookies. I very much dislike this as I don't like the privacy and tracking implications. Besides, no aspect of this "fingerprint" is something that can't easily be spoofed.Some sites do 2FA (usually as an addition to passwords rather than a replacement). It's good that sites are starting to do this, but you still have to keep track of different credentials for different sites.Oauth 2 and OpenID Connect: basically use your credentials from one site (typically Google and Facebook) to log into another (Right? Still learning...). This reduces the number of credentials you need to manage, but it makes me uncomfortable having Google federating access to my entire life.Government and some other sites in Estonia use a government issued smart card + pin to authenticate users. I've never personally had a chance to use a system like this, but it sounds promising?What other options am I missing?

Lost bitlocker key
Since MS released the update that gave lots of computers worldwide BSOD we have a laptop that has BSOD. Since this happend between a MS update, the bitlocker key got frozen in the memory. As of MS disables bitlocker temporairly when it reboots for a update.The computer could bould without a key but is in a boot loop.We lost the key. So we tried several things: * Seaching the key in our mailboxen and every possible know place * Tried the infeneon tpm hack which failes to read the public key * Finding a way to put a command line in the boot process somewere so we could use %system32%\config\Regback, but i coulnd stop windows from loading somehow to open up cmd or so. * As for as i know it cant be done with Meltdown cause the OS needs te be live, correct me if im wrongWe do think of freezing the memory still should be a reasonable option, DMA-attack, but this would be the last option to tryDoes anyone else has Any ideas to use or combine some off the things i listed. We really need to crack this laptop open cause there are lots of family pictures on it, and yes they didnt want a backup plan, but the key was my responsibility.
