Most cloud backup services are worse - they do no client side encryption, your files are freely available to the service provider or anyone who can break in. I'd be much more comfortable with this personally. Trust the math, not the pe

Some people understandably want to do things on-premise, to avoid shipping unnecessary details to companies like Amazon. But for the most part a reverse proxy using varnish or nginx will do the job here. Heck, I think even CloudFlare uses m

You can easily add snapshotting using on-disk technologies like LVM or ZFS to that and achieve reliability against such an issue though, as well as being able to do a full text backup (ie: to SQL) from your replicated server at higher perfo

Use that live database replication along with LVM, Btrfs or ZFS snapshotting every hour and purging the old one. Take a full, proper backup every hour if you can or every day if you can't. If you can afford to, do a SQL dump at reduced

It's also easy to remember "F5 ssl ticket vuln" and that conveys more important information. Like the fact only F5 devices are affected so relatively few have to worry about it.

In the Alexa top 1M there were less than 1000 sites. And sites smaller than that top 1M are even less likely to be using it. I don't find that a very large impact personally. F5 knows who their customers are and can easily contact them

Maybe I'm just a cynic, but do we really need cute exploit names for something that only affects a quite small number of companies as they must be using an F5 BIG-IP device?

That's an interesting idea. I think ultimately you need to trust the people you talk to though if you're discussing something private with them. There's no technical solution to copying and pasting the conversation - try as y

Yeah, seems fairly ridiculous given how much they push being a security company. Apparently hard-coded 3DES key that anyone can reverse engineer = security. I'm tempted to pop their Android app up in IDA and see if it's really as

I disagree with the idea of allowing backup/restore of conversations defeats forward secrecy. There's a big difference between decrypting past conversations and decrypting chat logs. I have full control over my chat logs, I can ch

I think they just mean specific incentives given to intel for the move. There's been lots of talk about change in tax policy - especially at the borders which might prompt something like this.

Hopefully he'll get on board with it soon - if things keep going the way they have been, soon it economically won't be feasible not to.

The threat of protectionism from the current administration has motivated a few companies in the auto sector already. Might be somewhat tied to that.

I'm assuming you're using a VoIP provider to do this - just be careful, they might have rules against this. Definitely don't do it on an account you have a personal number you value or something. That said, I fire attacks at

There are vendors for these things in malls in Canada even. There are Kodi addons that make it super simple, just push a button and stream movies off file lockers kind of thing. It's pretty much dead simple and "just works" -

Yeah, something like that might be a totally reasonable solution. There's lots of options to discuss to get better public and private care, but discussions on them are so partisan and bogged down that nothing is likely to get done.

I hear you, but most of those benefits are reaped from not just strong, but more importantly static typing alone, which you could gain from simply using C# or Java without the need to commit to the complexity of borrow checking, which only

I just don't see what Rust's type system buys you over the others, despite the extraordinary effort it forces you to exert - so I'm quite concerned about seeing it suggested in serious applications outside of the niches in wh
