In our previous blog post we introduced the Interrogizer project. Interrogizer is a logic analyser, which means it samples binary signals and sends the samples to a host computer as fast as possible.
Interrogizer is an Open Source project, aimed at providing developers with an affordable and easily producible tool to aid troubleshooting by enabling measurement of digital signals. Started from a desire to share hardware knowledge around Codethink, the device uses a small microcontroller placed on a simple PCB that can be easily and cheaply produced; allowing for iterations of the product as development progresses.
In an evermore software-intensive world, the security of software systems has become a critical part of product design and implementation. One way in which attackers exploit software systems is by crafting malicious inputs. The defence to such attacks is a combination of defensive programming techniques including input validation.
In this post I'm going to talk about the recent tranche of work I've put into a tool I wrote called topplot, which plots graphs from the data produced by the system utility top.
As an organisation, health and wellbeing is one of our key focuses - this includes our colleagues, customers, connections, friends and family. We are progressing through our wellbeing calendar and have a focus this month on activities to raise awareness for World Suicide Prevention Day and to join in with the World's Biggest Coffee Morning on 25th September in support of Macmillian Cancer.
There are various roles out there on ansible-galaxy that will take care of installing this application for you, but their main advantage is the ability to install on platforms we don't use, and the ones we looked over didn't provide any configuration of openvas itself.
I recently digitally attended the 2020 STAMP workshop, hosted by MIT. This was originally planned to be in Boston in March, but for obvious reasons was moved.
We’re excited to see that Red Hat has decided to offer flatpak runtimes for RHEL with a ten year security fix plan...
Codethink staff have been predominantly based at home now for over three months. In that time the way we all interact with the world has changed considerably.
Codethink is working on a project to design a fully open-source (hardware and software) research device for experimenting with shining light into skin and detecting the light that reflects, gets absorbed and passes through. This kind of technology is widely deployed for measuring heart rates.
