🔴 👁 - Marina @afelia Weisband: „#Palantir ist designt dafür, viele Datenbanken zusammenzutragen und ein einziges Profil über jeden Menschen zu erstellen und das leicht durchsuchbar zu machen. Es ist designt für Totalüberwachung. Es ist in seinem Grund inkompatibel mit einer Demokratie.“

Note to self: start scheduling backups and don’t be surprised by cyber attacks from Iran or their supporters. Right after dismantling CISA, perfect timing.

Following a rich white man to war because you didn’t like the sound of a black woman laughing will go down in American history as one of the stupidest things ever.

Since I'm doing outdoor sketching I am so aware of the lack of benches in cities. Please just let me sit somewhere? In the shade? No I don't want to consume anything I just want to draw this pretty building over there please.

'Meredith,' some guys ask, 'why won't you shove AI into Signal?'

Because we love privacy, and we love you, and this shit is predictable and unacceptable. Use Signal ❤️

Dieses Schweigen in der CDU zur Personalie Spahn, erzählt auch viel über das Innenleben dieser Fraktion. Dort hat offenbar niemand den Anstand das zu fordern, was bei einem solchen Totalversagen angemessen wäre - den Rücktritt des Fraktionsvorsitzenden und ja auch die Niederlegung des Mandats. 1/5

Wie prekär mittlerweile die Lage von Jans Spahn geworden sein muss, erkennt man übrigens auch daran, dass Springer Redaktionen wieder angefangen haben Habeck anzugreifen. …

Jordan Maris 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 #NAFO 5d ago

The brutal, daily bombing and murder of innocent civilians, in #Palestine and #Ukraine are signs of a collapsing rules-based world order.

It is not collapsing because of #Russia or #Israel, but because the west, who was supposed to uphold it, chose not to for the simple reason that it was inconvenient.

Today Ukrainians and Palestinians are suffering the consequences. Tomorrow it will be Europeans and Americans.

If you don't stop evil in it's infancy you might not be able to when it grows.

I love that cats that aren’t domesticated don’t meow when they grow up, but domesticated cats do because they learned humans don’t understand their natural communication, so they keep meowing beyond the kitten stage just for us. So basically cats made up a language just to talk to us. And that language is essentially baby talk.

@ducksauz @kajer @cR0w HSMs very, VERY, *VERY* plural.

I was not directly involved, but my understanding was that they used the offline root CA as part of the authentication system to ensure they had not somehow wandered off the network.
These kind of HSMs.

@rootwyrm @ducksauz @cR0w $previous_job - We had HSMs in AWS and paid a VERY pretty penny to keep those legacy as fuck machines running until we found something better... (we didnt by the time covid layoff happened)

@kajer @ducksauz @cR0w you really, really have to be an absolute idiot to pay for "cloud" HSMs, honestly. They are INSANELY expensive to say the very least, and it is completely impossible for them to actually be secure.
It just is. PHYSICAL inspection and PHYSICAL tamper indicators are a non-optional part of it.

Meanwhile a Thales Luna 7 hardware HSM at the very tippy top end (max perf, 5 partitions, ent support) costs less than half that.
For 3 years.

@kajer @ducksauz @cR0w and "less than half" is being... generous. I have priced out "cloud" HSMs for certificate services.

$135,000 per year for a miserable enterprise Java Beans "cloud HSM."
The "less secure" version that is just as insecure is still over $75k per year.
Venafi has a nice product. They charge you $100,000 per year to manage it "in the cloud." Not including HSM.

I can literally just whip out a credit card and buy a Luna 7 for $52k. And I actually own it.

@rootwyrm @ducksauz @cR0w not my money, it was a DevOps thing... Until I moved to the SecOps team, then we were tasked with finding HSM solutions to support our hashicorp integrations...

Luckily my SecOps experience was revolving around defending the network from Devops and constantly pulling logs from the F5 and Palo to prove that the latest devops push was to blame for application problems, and not thew FW/LB policy

Dealing with HSMs and FEKs and the like was not what I would consider to be fulfilling work.
