I see. Hence evil maid attack. If someone has temporary physical access they could install malware that captures data when the device is unlocked. Chargers as an attack vector seem more likely, if more mundane.

I don’t have deep knowledge of the security architecture here but, in general the key doesn’t need to be compromised to retrieve data in secure systems. What prevents unauthorized firmware from requesting that the Secure Enclave decrypt all

Negligent or malicious, no matter which, I would not want to deploy devices that had hardcoded ssh private keys. Default passwords can be dealt with.

Pretty sure NTSC standard/transmission is actually 29.97. It was 30Hz when originally released in black and white and then some was dedicated to the color channel. 30fps (b&w NTSC) and 25fps (PAL) are derived from grid AC frequenci

There's another UPS-source option, which is also my favorite, flywheel! Back in the 00s I visited a DC that two very large flywheel UPS that were being trialed to replace the battery room.

I fell victim to a virus on PC that only had a floppy drive. The virus was a DOS TSR virus that would stay resident, hook itself into DOS' interrupts and infect any executables run, even if on a different disk.

I think this has to do with a fundamental difference in how sensitive account number and routing numbers are in the US compared with other international financial systems I have used. In the US, if someone has your account number and routin

You can't generalize residency like that. It depends. In the EU laws on residency are different for each member state. You become US tax resident based on the significant presence test without presenting any proof You become a legal pe

Hold your horses there. The emphasis on OP's quoted line should be on _technically_. A bill has to proceed through Royal Assent by the Queen before it becomes law [1]. It just happens that she is always timely with this duty and always

Interesting. I don't have access to the code I was talking about anymore, but I'm pretty sure that I did have different threads in different mount namespaces. Looking at the man-page briefly it looks like the restriction you are t

I find the use of Go for the userland pretty cool. It makes sense in this case considering if you disable cgo the only external dependency you have is the Linux syscall table. I've implemented a number of system tools in Go and it is p

Sounds like you are describing containers; while not emulation neither is virtualization. There are many more opportunities for escape dealing with Linux containers than virtualization due to the increased complexity of the interface. While

It's perfectly legal now to be a founder on an H1B if there is a way for the "company" to fire any individual. Establishing a board of directors with investors or having 3 co founders so that any 2 can fire the third.

Personally I think that is too simplistic a position and the reality is more complex. Most people would agree that using this approach to spy on your employees to track their banking activity is unethical. Using MITM-SSL as a way to get vis

All MITM proxies I know require an enterprise CA trusted by the end-point. If that CA is on your machine the endpoint is probably owned by your employer. It is legal in most jurisdictions for your employer to monitor the usage of resources

I think it was more that they didn't want customers to have to fill it, as it's just one more annoying maintenance item to take care of it. I've never seen any warning or notice stating that it should not be filled by owners.
