Today we continue the series on eating your own security dog food! Specifically, we talk about:

  • Keeping a log and procedure for sanitizing systems

  • Keeping a log and procedure for provisioning systems

  • A big "gotcha" to be aware of when using Windows system dropboxes - make sure your Windows user account doesn't expire, because Splashtop doesn't have any way to update it! To prevent this, set the account not to expire:

 wmic useraccount where "Name='LocalAdminAccount'" set PasswordExpires=false  
  • If you want more tips on building pentest dropboxes, check out this series

Oh, and today's song that I sang obnoxiously is If I Were a Dog.
