I've found with businesses like this (though not 1&1 specifically), the magic word is "chargeback". It helps you cut through the bullshit because if they get too high a percentage of chargebacks, their credit card process

I feel like Verizon's treading VERY dangerous waters here. If they sue Netflix for libel over this, then they're going to have to go through discovery. Since the claims center around network congestion, that means it'd be fai

I think as long as LibreSSL plans on ripping out the FIPS stuff, it's not going to replace OpenSSL in a huge number of places. Don't get me wrong, I think it's the right decision for the OpenBSD guys, and for the security of

For some of the core crypto stuff, yes. But, TLS is a huge spec, and I think the OpenSSL guys are going to have more experience in things like "Older (and widely deployed) F5 networking devices attempt to parse a TLS Handshake as SSLv2

If the call to BN_BLINDING_create_param() after that code fails, it will throw an error immediately after. I haven't checked the code for that function, but it probably returns error when it tries to use the CSPRNG.

So, while you could store the admin password hash, the router does need at least the WPA PSK to implement the protocol (see my reply to smtddr for more details). What they could do, if they really wanted to be clever, is store a hash of the

First let me explain the relationship between the first and second values. For authentcation, passphrases are used because they're a lot easier for humans to remember than 256 bit hex strings. The WPA2 standard (IEEE 802.11i) defines t

Note that this article is a year old. The USS Freedom has been operating in Singapore and the Philippines this past year. (Though it's had quite a number of mechanical problems besetting its cruises).

That's incorrect in any country (167 of them, including most of the west) that signed the Berne Convention ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berne_convention ), which makes all works copyright-by-default.

I think that's true for only a subset of the claimed catalog. The article claims "the catalog even lists the prices for these electronic break-in tools, with costs ranging from free to $250,000". I suspect all of the ones wit

To the best of my knowledge, the NTSB has not released any preliminary assignment of blame. They spend years on these sort of things, checking every detail, dotting every 'i' and crossing every 't' before they make those

My understanding is that Chrome only cares about this sort of thing when it's a CA in the default trust store that shouldn't be impersonating them. User-added certs like in your example are fine, because explicit action was taken.

That article is using a horrible methodology. The reason the average tenure is low is because Amazon is growing at around 60% year-over-year. At that growth rate, you'd expect the tenure numbers to be dominated by hiring rather than tu
