Why Every SysAdmin Should Understand ISO/IEC 27001:2022

In today’s digital landscape, the role of a System Administrator (SysAdmin) extends far beyond server uptime and software updates. With cyber threats evolving daily, understanding key information security standards like ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is no longer optional, it’s essential. This international standard provides a robust framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continuously improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS). For SysAdmins, mastering ISO/IEC 27001 isn’t

Harden and Secure Linux Servers by Level (1 - 6)

Securing a Linux server is an ongoing challenge. Every day, bad actors attempt to penetrate systems worldwide, using VPNs, IP spoofing, and other evasion tactics to obscure their origins. The source of an attack is often the least of your concerns, what matters most is implementing strong security measures to deter threats and protect your infrastructure. Hardening your servers not only makes them more resilient but also forces attackers to either move on or, ideally, abandon their efforts altog

Responsive List of Avatars Using Modern CSS (Part 2)

by: Temani Afif Wed, 17 Dec 2025 15:21:34 +0000 Ready for the second part? If you recall, last time we worked on a responsive list of overlapping avatar images featuring a cut-out between them. We are still creating a responsive list of avatars, but this time it will be a circular list. This design is less common than the horizontal list, but it’s still a good exercise to explore new CSS tricks. Let’s start with a demo. You can resize it and see how the images behave, an

Chris’ Corner: Cloud Four

by: Chris Coyier Mon, 15 Dec 2025 18:00:51 +0000 This is an appreciation post for the Cloud Four Blog. It’s one of those must-subscribes. I find myself adding almost every post they put out to my archive of posts to dig into. So since I’m overflowing with them a bit, and there is a hot-off-the-presses one, I figured I’d share that and a bunch of favorites. In Responsive Letter Spacing, Tyler Sticka covers a scenario where you want to tighten up letter-spacing, but be smart about it. At

Toon Title Text Generator

It generates the sort of fun typography that Andy commonly uses in his own work that’s geared towards cartoon headings. There are a number of configurable options for font, color, stroke, letter spacing, and shadows. And it spits out the CSS for you to copy-paste. What if you want to individually style each letter? Well, there’s no such thing as :nth-letter in CSS at the moment. There are

Responsive List of Avatars Using Modern CSS (Part 1)

by: Temani Afif Mon, 15 Dec 2025 16:19:23 +0000 A list of rounded images that slightly overlap each other is a classic web design pattern. You are for sure wondering what the novelty we are bringing here is, right? It has been done countless times. You are right. The main idea is not complex, but the new thing is the responsive part. We will see how to dynamically adjust the overlap between the images so they can fit inside their container. And we will make some cool animations

YouTube’s AI is Breaking the Creator Ecosystem

by: Theena Kumaragurunathan Sun, 14 Dec 2025 09:17:30 +0530 A moderation system that leans on automation just knocked legitimate tech tutorials and even entire channels offline. The appeals felt automated, too. Creators are powerless against opaque enforcement and the incentives that should favor craft and trust are tilting toward noise.

What Else Could Container Queries… Query?

by: Daniel Schwarz Fri, 12 Dec 2025 14:38:18 +0000 I’ll admit, when container queries first shipped back in 2022, I didn’t really pay attention. I mean, why container size queries when we already have media queries? Why container style queries when custom properties inherit anyway (they don’t work with standard properties… yet)? Their use cases seemed like edge cases to me, enabling us to do things that we could already do but in a different way. Here’s a container size queries demo by

LHB Linux Digest #25.38: Pro Vim Tips, KubeTUI, Wordlists, Screen Command and More

by: Abhishek Prakash Fri, 12 Dec 2025 16:31:28 +0530 I have been exploring the options to offer replayable playgrounds to complement the text and video learning resources. Is this something you would be interested in? Personally, I prefer trying things on my own machine but these playgrounds also help a learner jump straight into a pre-configured environment to focus on a specific task. Let me know what you think of it.      

Using Wordlists for Brute Force Attack in Kali Linux

by: Hangga Aji Sayekti Fri, 12 Dec 2025 13:22:51 +0530 Most people know Kali Linux for its tools, but one of its most underrated strengths is the collection of wordlists it ships with. These wordlists are carefully curated from real breaches, common naming patterns, predictable directory names, and default credentials. They form the backbone of most brute force and fuzzing attacks. When I started learning offensive security, I used to download random wordlists from the internet because everyon
