Let's be real. Google would not hesitate to sell G-suite/Google Docs to the Pentagon and any US military ally in the world. How many orders or strategy doctrines are delivered via e-mail/spreadsheets?

How is U2F considered legacy already? It's still fairly the most modern way for a 2nd factor. WebAuthn just came outmonths ag and most of the Yubikeys - as well as apps/sites/services -- don't support it.

Carbon Black and Crowdstrike were traditionally EDR platforms. Crowdstrike had no AV capabilities until last year. They have now morphed into the EPP category as per Gartner. They are a now a suite of tools, where AV is just a single part o

"Nextgen"AV would not have caught this. AV is still AV and looking at executables and binaries. Exploiting a vulnerability does not fit that bill. This incident had nothing to do with a 'virus'. Now many tools that inclu

Office365 is great, but, time to de-couple it from "Cloud". The funny thing is that when someone launches a windows server on AWS, MS counts that license towards their Cloud Revenue!

I have yet to read solid case studies of real multi-cloud at scale. E.g. Active-Active load-balanced between multiple providers. Plenty of companies use multiple clouds, but, it tends to be a line of business decision. Team A likes AWS, Tea

...and that's without a FIPS 140-2 Level 3 backend for a HSM as well, right? (Secrets Manger has that I assume). With Vault 1) you have to get Hashi Enterprise 2) Pay for a very pricey HSM.

The hourly employees are paid significantly more than Walmart/Best Buy/Target employees. In my home state, they start at $14-$15. About 2x Walmart.They also have programs for veterans to make even more. They will also pay for comm

Amazon accounts for 4% of ALL retail sales. Where are the calls about Walmart? I think we have to see the bigger picture. Growth, momentum, and investments should be a good thing. Dominance is not illegal. Nor technically is a monopoly. Usi

That mindset doesn't change these numbers then seeing that AWS released Lambda in 2014...years ahead.

It's $4 per 1-million API calls processed. And starts at $1 per GB of logs processed. Which pricing dimension is of concern?

I found the pricing for Guard Duty reasonable compared to most IDS systems. They let you turn on GuardDuty for free for 30 days and give you an estimate your bill so that helps.

Macie Analayzes a subset of CloudTrail, not all actions and is about historical behavior (though for high sev actions, it is more point in time) GuardDuty is looking for specific threats/attacks and can combine multiple sources of tele

by p0rkbelly 9y ago
I don't believe so, since one of GuardDuty's key features is running analysis of CloudTrail logs...which is AWS API activity. Plus, there are many, many flowlog analysis tools out there...and Spot is only in incubation...that does

a t2.Large instance is $76/per month. You can reduce that even further with reserved instance pricing. T2 is much more akin to what Linode offers.

I think it is a worth noting that there is a difference between Dynamo and DynamoDB. One is a powerhouse academic publication that shook up modern computer science and one an enterprise tech product based upon Dynamo. It is the 10th anniver

You are also thinking about this in a perfect vacuum. Global scale presents an entirely different --non-technical-- challenge. Take for example, Dropbox stated they are moving off AWS -- except in Europe (and other non-US areas I'm sur

500TB/mo is nothing for FB or AWS. Hope you don't work with any anything to do with scale at AWS. You're looking more towards 1 Exabyte a month...
