Installing Postgres via Brew (OSX) (outdated see top most note)

Outdated note: the process is a lot easier now: after you brew install postgresql you can initialize or stop the daemon with these commands: brew services start postgresql or brew services stop postgresql.

new out put may look like

To have launchd start postgresql now and restart at login:
  brew services start postgresql
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
  pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres start

Remove metadata from a PDF file, using exiftool and qpdf. Note that embedded objects may still contain metadata.

Anonymising PDFs

Metadata in PDF files can be stored in at least two places:

  • the Info Dictionary, a limited set of key/value pairs
  • XMP packets, which contain RDF statements expressed as XML

A ever-evolving guide on how I lockdown a new digital ocean wordpress droplet.

This guide is meant to be a signpost to guide the way, not a dictionary to memorize. Your mileage may vary. Two great sites to check speed and security: http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/ & https://securityheaders.io

Initial setup

GET DIGITAL OCEAN

Buy a new Digital Ocean droplet with Wordpress pre-installed ($10 per month).

CREATE USERS AND LOCK DOWN SSH

ssh into the new instance based on the credentials Digital Ocean provided.

Get ClamAV running on Mac OS X (using Homebrew)

Get ClamAV running on Mac OS X (using Homebrew)

The easiest way to get the ClamAV package is using Homebrew

$ brew install clamav

Before trying to start the clamd process, you'll need a copy of the ClamAV databases.

Create a freshclam.conf file and configure as so

Uninstall JRE from Mac OSX
Remove one directory and one file (a symlink)
1. Navigate to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins and remove the JavaAppletPlugin.plugin directory.
2. Navigate to /Library/PreferencePanes and remove JavaControlPanel.prefpane.
Do not attempt to uninstall Java by removing the Java tools from /usr/bin.
This directory is part of the system software and any changes will be reset by Apple the next time you perform an update of the OS.
sudo rm -rf /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/
sudo rm -rf /Library/PreferencePanes/JavaControlPanel.prefPane
