This week we’ve shipped a new login system, had some great community shoutouts, and had the awesome opportunity to meet a ton of folks in person at DevFest.
As part of our ongoing efforts to make website security as dead simple as possible, we’ve now simplified the login and signup for Wafris. Use your existing Github or Google accounts to get started in seconds at: https://hub.wafris.org/users/sign_up
No matter what stack or platform you’re on if you’re trying to sort out what’s happening with your app at some point a massive log file is going to be sent to you for analysis.
Dealing with big log files is a huge pain because there’s too much data for most easy-to-use tools and while it’s possible to awk+sed your way through it’s still time-consuming.
It’s for precisely this reason that we made Contextifier - an open source, log format agnostic tool for pulling out IP addresses from any logfile and helping you make sense of them.
I had the opportunity to present at the inaugural DevFest happening in Virginia Beach on Contextifier and its use.
If you weren’t able to make it, no worries as we updated the documentation and examples on the repo at: https://github.com/Wafris/contextifier/
We wanted to thank all the folks who attended our first online security workshop the other week. As a thank you to people who asked any of the great questions or offered feedback we shipped out packs of our “Code For Insanity” card decks.
Just really appreciate all the support.
