Of course, I need to securely configure my devices. For network devices, we should consider using RADIUS/TACACS+ for authentication purposes, not a shared user account. Ansible can help automate the backup, and you can learn more in this month’s how-to video that covers using Ansible to back up a Cisco ASA firewall.

Within an office environment, workers have a number of protections, such as the company firewall and regularly updated infrastructure. It is important that your VPN should use multi-factor authentication (MFA) rather than just usernames and passwords. Without these protections, remote staff can potentially be vulnerable.

Of course, this approach is tempting because it requires little effort on a webmaster's end, but absolute protection is more complex than that. An endpoint web application firewall (WAF) can closely monitor incoming traffic and works wonders in forestalling zero-day incursions.

Of course, good old vigilance won't go amiss. It's also imperative to verify website authenticity before interacting with its content. A DNS firewall and a classic antivirus are somewhat underused yet effective security tools that will come in handy. If an ad feels too good to be true, think twice before clicking it.

Think about all the controls we have in place on our networks today: firewalls, authentication systems, intrusion detection and prevention systems (network- and host-based), router and switch security, operating system security, data encryption — the list goes on and on. It’s in this domain that we lump the following: Firewalls.

Poonen uses an example of a rooftop infinity pool in Singapore as a metaphor for the “three foundations” of EUC: SDDC, workspace services (authentication and content collaboration, for example), and then the desktop/mobile/cloud experience. EVO:RACK, of course, is still in technical preview.

Finally, use the Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) to set password requirements and lock out users with too many failed logins. OpenSCAP shows that a firewall is installed and running, that the Telnet protocol is disabled, and so on. Use a tool like USBGuard to blacklist and whitelist USB devices based on their attributes.

Time, of course, marched on and companies moved from magnetic tape to digital records and finally on into the cloud. However, no matter how many firewalls we put in place or how effectively we implement two-factor authentication we still need to understand the weakest link in our security system: our employees.

Of course not. Being sure to pay attention to firewalls, exchange services, or anything that can be accessed from the outside world (the public internet) to the internal network can help thwart a threat actor. Of course, this list of challenges could easily be much longer. We’re not looking through the ‘same-old’ lens.

NFTs use a digital ledger to provide a public certificate of authenticity or proof of ownership, but do not restrict the sharing or copying of the underlying digital files. Of course not. NFTs can be associated with reproducible digital files such as photos, videos, and audio. Is this a new concept? Many have been doing this for years.

In 2011, researcher Ang Cui showed how updates to common laser printers were not signed or otherwise authenticated, meaning that you might think you’re doing the right thing by applying an update when in reality you might be unintentionally installing malware.
