I spent all day having Claude Code security audit every VPS I have
Yesterday I spent all day typing this into Claude Code:
"Do a full security audit of this website and server"
On every single VPS (and site) I have
I already had automatic unattended upgrades with auto reboot for security updates in Ubuntu (reboot only takes 4 minutes so I think it's fine every few weeks)
Also isolated each VPS on Tailscale with special security policies (generated by Claude Code! so it can not access any other VPS (in case it gets hacked) and not even access my MacBook or iPhone unless I talk to it first
Also lots of user permission stuff isolating stuff to www-data to avoid root access for web services
Not the most fun stuff but essential
I think in addition to @yongfook's "marketing week" we now have to add one week per month of "security week" because with the models getting better our pre-emptive defense has to get better too
Luckily for us I think the attack and defense capabilities of AI models seems to somewhat match? So as long as we keep typing "do a security audit" regularly into our clanker we can keep it safe
I hope 🫨
