- usr1106 3y agoThat makes senses. I already wanted to comment that showing an false warning is not good. But silently sending a mail of what you tried to do is worse.
- dan_linder 3y agoThis is great! Now when I break into a system I can quickly verify if they've got this aspect of sudo logging setup or not! Only 1/2 /s
- Dylan16807 3y agoChecking if the alarm is set by seeing if it activates seems like it's not particularly useful.
- couchand 3y agoNot to comment on this particular case, but this is a more useful tactic than it seems at first. Seeing the reaction that an alarm brings can provide lots of useful information for evading future ones.
- Dylan16807 3y agoFor some alarms yes. But for one where you won't even know if it activated unless you see the response, and there's little reason for anyone to care about it most of the time... it seems pretty niche.
