  • restic -> Wasabi, automated with shell script and cron. Uses an include list to tell it what paths to back up.

    Script has Pushover credentials to send me backup alerts. Parses restic log to tell me how much was backed up, removed, success/failure of backup, and current repo size.

    To be added: a periodic restore of a random file to have its hash compared to the current version of the file (will happen right after backup, unlikely to have changed in my workload), which will be subsequently deleted, and alert sent letting me know how the restore test went.




  • The basic flow of the attack is, first, infecting an Internet-connected device through a means ESET and Kaspersky have been unable to determine. Next, the infected computer infects any external drives that get inserted. When the infected drive is plugged into an air-gapped system, it collects and stores data of interest. Last, when the drive is inserted into the Internet-connected device, the data is transferred to an attacker-controlled server.

    Guys, storage devices move data from one machine to another. /pikachuface













  • There is a solution, it’s called insurance. I know that you wouldn’t get your family heirlooms back

    Then it isn’t exactly a solution, is it? The jewelry probably only would appraise for <$1000 (probably far less). It’s not about the monetary cost.

    but neither would you being armed but not home.

    Yeah…? I don’t get this line of argument. This just in - guns only effective when there’s a human there to operate it. No shit…

    You’re simultaneously arguing that guns are overkill to solve theft and that guns don’t solve theft.

    I fear that you could end up shooting a porch pirate in the back while claiming self defense.

    The state I live in currently wouldn’t allow for me to use deadly force to protect property. But states I’ve lived in in the past sure would. As of now, I would have to be in fear of great bodily harm or death in order to employ deadly force and that’s the standard I will follow. Just keep in mind that many robberies involve a deadly weapon on the perpetrators side which is an immediate green light on my end.
