If you have an older system but are worried that it won’t support Windows 10 — or if you simply don’t want to deal with Windows anymore — I have a suggestion: Switch to desktop Linux. Desktop Linux can run on your Windows 7 (and older) laptops and desktops. Teams now runs on Linux. Which Linux?

As a result, I’ve stepped up my work on a Linux migration, and I’m happy to report that I’ve made some progress. Linux Distribution. I’ve looked at a fair number of Linux distributions. I also went back and looked again at Ubuntu derivatives like Linux Mint. Here’s a quick update on where things stand so far.

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. Don’t stop with the backup, though — we still need to monitor for changes. Remember, we want to standardize the process to keep every system in our environment secure.

Instead of encrypting backup data, BlackMatter instead wipes it clean in some cases. BlackMatter actors use a separate encryption binary for Linux-based machines and routinely encrypt ESXI virtual machines. Rather than encrypting backup systems, BlackMatter actors wipe or reformat backup data stores and appliances.

In this post, I’ll show you how I got Arista’s vEOS software running under KVM to create a virtualized Arista switch. According to the documentation I’ve found, this is because EOS needs to make a backup copy of the flash partition (which in this case is the VMDK disk image). Linux Containers via LXC and Libvirt.
