Is that a pickup line? Lol
Husband, Father, IT Pro, service.
If I ask a lot of questions, I might understand why.
Is that a pickup line? Lol
I have the older Sophos utm, which doesn’t use the Sophos cloud central manager.
I think their new firewall utm can work disconnected, but I don’t know.
Sophos has a home use license that’s free for non business use.
I love companies that do community edition or free home use.
Sophos, Veeam has nfr, Elastiflow has community edition, which is a netflow.
Sorry for confusion. I use Sophos utm as a WAF for exchange. Basically reverse proxy that is specifically programmed for exchange attacks. It allows OWA to keep working.
I put the exchange admin URL behind authentication, so you try to go to /ecp, it Sophos intercepts and make you authenticate to Sophos utm first, which is passing to ad with radius.
MS got rid of intune on prem. It’s only Azure service now. I think.
My router is my biggest vuln. Oddly the most important. It’s an enterprise ISR. It’s updated as far as possible. My paranoia ends with the US gov/NSA. I don’t care if they want back door oddly. I don’t want China using me for attack relay however.
Loads of monitoring. You do a span/mirror port to your IDS like security Onion. Let it analyze all your traffic. Apparently there are some state sponsored exploits that allow them to owe a router at kernel level and hide their activities from you and monitoring, but that’s a level I can’t deal with.
As far as lock out, you create a break glass on everything. Emergency account with non rememberable ridiculous password, saved in a safe place.
I guess the firmware is as good as possible. All network devices are just computers and can be exploited. I use a Cisco router as my actual gateway. Sophos is inline after that.
Privacy. 🤔
Not much. I have certain traffic go through a VPN to the Internet, but that’s split tunneled.
I use incognito? That doesn’t really do anything, ha.
I’m slowly killing web browser tracking and cookie stuff that group policy allows.
Your working environment sounds gross :)
IT is hard. Finding good IT people is harder in my opinion. Working for a company that is not super squared away with good security and great usability sucks. At least you found some work arounds and are trying to do it well.
Ha, probably. It’s fun to learn stuff though.
Working in this field, almost every company has been beached, IP stolen, etc.
Sometimes your home IP gets hit in an automated scan for a vulnerability and then auto exploited by automation. I’m hoping not to get random chance added to a botnet.
Also laughing because that’s how some companies get owned, IP stolen, etc.
There has to be balance, if your life using their system sucks so hard you can’t do your job or meet production marks, you get creative.
My industry has to prioritize security over productivity. It’s almost impossible to get work done.
Ha yeah.
Id say the same for trellix.
You should try doing things with installs or updating apps when the edr product blocks write access to all temp locations. You have to do an exclusion for every installer, signing cert, or turn it off to install programs.
I’m an enterprise guy, so that’s the explanation for non home use things.
I bet this can still get exploited, just would take effort hopefully none does for a home network.
I’m still one shitty windows zero day click away from getting my workstation or browser tokens owned though, I can feel it.
This corporate cycle isn’t likely to change anytime soon right?
Top tier corps, boards, Cs, ultimately care about share price and growth right?
Isn’t it tied to their pay incentives? To keep their contracts and incentives, they have to grow or reduce costs.
They make bad choices or bets among the way, no problem, just reduce costs and still meet the metrics. Only people who pay seem to be the workforce, right?
Or am I oversimplifying?
I think that’s synonymous with “all hail the shareholder”
One of the keys to selecting the solution from the provided answers is if you need this to be publicly trusted.
I use an internal openssl ca root, created intermediate ca for each active directory domain or Forest. Also, I wanted to create internal PKI smart cards with yubikeys and his c1150 cards. For you know, fun.
I didn’t care that other hosts don’t trust my stuff because all my hosts are configured with root ca, and I only use VPN for access.
You want external trust, must do some of the other suggestions. Setting up internal CA is a chore with understanding AIA, CDP points, line of sight to PKI urls for renovation checking, more…
I recommend look into managed, vlan capable switches after you get your firewall figured out. That will allow you to put hosts on different vlans and separate lab stuff from the rest of your home network stuff.
There’s a million videos.
OPM was hacked a while ago all us gov with clearance taken
Chinese hacked Google and Microsoft to help them with zero day development, since Chinese have the source code now
Chinese hacked Microsoft and got us gov office 365 emails
Russia and China hack everything and everyone to steal intellectual property.
Russia has conducted cyber attacks against the places they invade.
If you Google cyber attacks, you’ll get endless results
This is a podcast that will cover some of the biggest ones.
If you don’t want to listen to a dork podcast since they can be long, short version is: https://cisoseries.com/category/podcast/cyber-security-headlines/
I’m pretty sure ww3 was already started by stuxnet. Have you not seen the news lately regarding cyber crime/espionage/attacks?
You think she was also a stripper?
Just a quick warning: life gets a lot more complex when you look at things holistically instead of tiny headline slices.
If you challenge us to put things into more context, you’re going to hurt our brains…

Doesn’t tailscale retain closed source for the coordination server?
I think nebula mesh is totally open and you can run your own coordination server, lighthouse?
Nebula would need static IP, TS can do that part for $
I know this isn’t what you’re looking for, but I got a family plan from Google for music and split it with 6 family members, which is probably the same as apple music I assume.
I don’t have to mess with download anymore.
Lidarr is only one I know.
