UAG, TMG, and other G's

This Forefront business has been quite a conundrum for a while: 

  • Old news first - TMG is being discontinued, you can read more about it here
  • UAG marches on, at least for now. And hopefully will soon catch up with a slew of already released products - like Exchange 2013, SharePoint 2013, Windows 8, IE10, etc. - by actually supporting them. That stuff is coming in SP3 (Q1 2013)
  • And while you are waiting for the SP3 to arrive, here's a quick post on how to fix one of the issues commonly associated with the SP2 upgrade - "The URL contains an invalid parameter" error

Updating computer's AD Security Group membership without rebooting

I found the following to be very useful - From the elevated command prompt execute “ klist –li 0x3e7 ” to view the logon session of the computer account . To purge them, simply execute “ klist –li 0x3e7 purge ”. A typical use case might involve targeting GPOs based on computer's group membership. When you add computer to the group in order to test the application of policies you can reboot it or, alternatively, run the above mentioned to clear logon sessions, then do “ gpupdate /force ” and check. In a spirit of giving credit where credit is due, I found a few references to this, but the one I learned it from was  http://setspn.blogspot.com/2010/10/updating-servers-security-group.html

WordPress displays weird characters

Sometimes after a database conversion (e.g. from MySQL to MariaDB) or due to encoding issues a situation might arise when WordPress is showing weird characters. A quick way of remedying the situation would involve examining the pages to discover a pattern (what characters are being substituted, in the example below the apostrophe was replaced by  ’ ) then running an queries against the database to reverse the effect. Here's a quick example (common tables that store content): UPDATE  wp_posts  SET  post_content =  REPLACE (post_content,  'Â' ,  '' )      UPDATE  wp_posts  SET  post_content =  REPLACE (post_content,  '’' ,  "'" )      UPDATE  wp_postmeta  SET  meta_value =  REPLACE (meta_value,  'Â' ,  '' )      UPDATE  wp_postmeta  SET  meta_value =  REPLACE (me...

  AI Agents as Trusted IoT/Software Defined Devices 🤖 Your Newest Endpoint Isn’t a Laptop; It’s an AI Agent. Are You Ready to Secure It? Dive into the next frontier of cybersecurity. Autonomous AI agents are no longer just code; they are powerful actors in our digital ecosystems. Treating them as simple software leaves a massive security gap. Our latest report introduces a new paradigm: The AI Agent as a Software-Defined Device. Discover the essential framework for securing the agentic future: ➡️ The Agent-as-Device Model: Learn why abstracting agents as software-defined devices, similar to IoT endpoints, is the key to managing their complexity and risk. Secure the “hardware” (host), “software” (agent logic), and “network” (communications). ➡️ A Digital Passport for AI: Move beyond static API keys. Explore how Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs) create a cryptographic root of trust, giving every agent a verifiable identity and provable permissions. ➡️...
