Security Adventures 1. How to get yubikey+gpg+ssh+gitbhub working on MacOS

I've spent the day trying to get this setup working with GitHub and given the number of gotcha's I encountered, it seemed like a good idea to document how I finally got this working with as few hacks as possible. There's a lot of documentation out there (some of it old and misleading) and committing here for posterity will help me remember this when I inevitably need to do this again.

Rationale

Passwords are simply not enough these days. Regardless of the company, breaches (and the associated Personally Identifiable Information harvested) are a matter of not if, but when. There are a number of things you can do to protect yourself, but being on the tin-foil-hat side of paranoia, means there are a few Commandents that I adhere to (and recommend for other folks)[Insert link to Fight Club Rules for the Secure Internet].

That being said, if you use 2-factor authentication and have committed to using a hardware token such as the Yubikey, then you're already ahead of the curve. The problem is that wh

Build a 64bit Debian OS for the Raspberry Pi using Debootstrap

Introduction

The objective of these instructions is to create a complete Arm64 OS (Userland and Kernel) using Debian Debootstrap and RPI-Update for use on the Raspberry Pi 3 and 4.

Prerequisites:

  • An existing Debian/Raspbian system (any architecture will do)
  • An empty SD card formatted as per a standard Raspbian installation mounted to /mnt/sd on the build system
    • 1st Partition 0-256MB = FAT32 (Mount to /mnt/sd/boot)
    • 2nd Partition 256MB+ = EXT4 (Mount to /mnt/sd)

Set-up basic Debian system

Set up msmtp to send emails emails from Ubuntu/Debian Servers

Setting up email with SMTP on Ubuntu/Debian Servers

I used to sift trough my shell history and bookmarks every time I set up a new testing server in order to be able to send mails. So this should help...

Be aware don't use ssmtp anymore. It's unmaintained and has been removed from Debian and Ubuntu will most definitely follow suit.

Install msmtp
