#it networking

The complete lack of support for these chill dudes (gender neutral - not all are male, P.S. many are also queer) is not only unfair, it's a major security risk.

There's something called SSH - Secure Shell. A secure protocol for accessing and controlling network devices. It's an integral part of every major Linux-based server, which run the vast majority of internet and government IT infrastructure on the planet. It's also sometimes used on other operating systems like Microsoft Windows. There's another little bit of software on just about all Linux operating systems called XZ Utils. It's a set of data compressors.

XZ Utils was being maintained by one person, a dude named Lasse Collin. An integral item used by about countless operating systems and servers that run everything from military systems to literally almost every single web and content server on the planet. One guy. He was fucking tired.

So when someone named Jia Tan showed up and offered to ease some of that burden, Collin leapt at the chance. And for years, it went well. They worked together to maintain XZ Utils. Then other people began showing up telling Collin that it's fine to retire now, move on to other projects, Jia Tan can take care of it. Collin listened.

Within a year of Collin handing over the reins, Jia Tan had implanted code into XZ Utils that granted unauthorised access to any system using it via SSH. Which means it was a backdoor that granted direct unauthorised access to the majority of network device and computer systems on the planet, and indirect or potential unauthorised access to almost every other network device and computer system.

This kind of attack is called a "supply chain attack." Instead of trying to break in from the outside or directly attack a target from within, you compromise a step in the supply chain that eventually makes it's way to the target system. This happened a few years back with the SolarWinds attack, known to have been caused by the Russian government, after they compromised software updates for SolarWinds, VMware, and Microsoft products being used by the US Federal Government. (Side note: President Trump refused to comment on the attack for days, before finally declaring that despite the evidence China must be the perpetrator).

It has since been learned that Jia Tan's supportive voices were all sock puppet accounts. They and Tan appeared to always post from Cina, though sometimes seemed to be posting from the Middle East and Europe. They worked on just about every notable Chinese holiday. This seems to indicate Jia Tan was not only an alias, but a name chosen as false flag in the event the years-long deception was uncovered. Current suspicion is that this was another Russian cyberattack, but we may never know for certain.

And this attack was only noticed by one other dude, Andres Freund, who noticed his SSH connections were a little slower than normal and decided it would be fun to investigate. He was a Microsoft employee but that investigation wasn't his job. He just thought it was worth doing.

The vast majority of the world's network infrastructure, used by every government and every corporation, compromised because the entire planet was relying on one chill dude and he was fucking tired.

What We Do

Network Design and Architecture

A well-structured network is the foundation of any IT infrastructure. We custom-design network architecture to suits your unique requirements. Whether it is a Local Area Network (LAN), Wide Area Network (WAN), or Virtual Private Network (VPN), the solution we develop for your business is going to be secure and scalable for smooth data communication. Our experts ensure that the network is optimized to meet the efficiency, reliability, and future expansion of your organization.

Network Security

In the times when cyber threats have become rife and fast changing, one can say that security forms the bedrock to network operations. Our security solutions range from implementing firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, VPN setups, and data encryption to the safeguard of sensitive information. We take a proactive attitude against unauthorized access, cyberattacks, and integrity of data, allowing businesses to operate securely without disruptions.

Network Installation and Configuration

Deploying a network requires great precision and skills. Our experts provide end-to-end network installation and configuration services so that both hardware and software components work seamlessly with one another. We set up everything from router and switch management to network cabling and server setup to establish foundation network infrastructure that facilitates high reliability. Hence, businesses stand to gain increased connectivity, as well as a more efficient manner of conducting their operations, with such installations.

Network Monitoring and Management

To perform under which they are bound are the businesses. Always keep a high-performance network, just in networks monitoring and management. We offer constant monitoring and managing in a business network to keep the operational flow uninterrupted. Our services include real-time performance monitoring, network troubleshooting, device management, and resource optimization, all with an excellent uptime factor and fast turnaround time on problems with a well-informed network at your disposal at all times.

Cloud Networking Solutions

With the help of cloud networking, anything from flexible usage to scalability and just that saving in the cost feature being built solely for businesses has become a reality. We help in most aspects of cloud networking solutions within organizations, such as cloud-based VPNs, network management, and security services. Businesses can then collaborate with one another, keep their data open to them, and improve their entire IT function using this approach without causing any hindrance to older frameworks.

Wireless Networking

An office today must have reliable wireless connectivity for those who will be working in it. From the arrangement of the Wi-Fi, including wireless access points and security settings, to the management of that entire environment, we offer design, implementation, and management of wireless solutions. This guarantees not only continuity for collaboration among employees and guests but gives that continuity while maintaining security measures to prevent other stakeholders from accessing it outside of office hours.

Network Upgrade and Migration

The driving force of technological advancement is man's constant quest for new ideas. So, every time, as the market conditions change, it is mandatory for an enterprise to upgrade its internal network infrastructure. For example, we manage the replacement of old network hardware to run on updated protocols or to migrate systems into new, advanced network architecture. Expansion of the firm or conversion into the latest technology; don't worry with us. We ensure a smooth process and efficiency in migration for our clients.

Network Consulting and Support

Out there, it's so wild and confusing wrangling with IT networking. Businesses can work this out with our consulting services to consider their current state of networking needs, understand what strategic objectives can be achieved, and map out the solutions that would eventually provide real-time networking. Also part of our service is continuous support and maintenance in the long term for the business to run its core operations without concern for any network disturbances.

One of the joys of working in technology are all the wonderful acronyms. I’m starting on a new technical project and hearing the term GNAS, so rather than asking somebody I decided to google it and found this page. I eventually found the correct acronym meaning but not here. I already know what a NAS is and discovered the G is Gateway.

What a relief! I really like my coworkers but not enough to do the last one on the list. 😜 😂
