Vamosi: So fuzzing injects malformed data and then monitors the result. So publisher would be a piece of software that had some data it wanted other people to know about other processes, and so it could publish messages into a Message Broker and then subscribers could pull them out as needed. If you want to control data feeds.

You know with modern vehicles, they're actually becoming like they're running on bluetooth, they're running the Android operating system. Vamosi: What unites these microcontrollers is not an operating system, rather it's a bus. A bus is a communication system that transfers data between components.

Modern-day defense in depth strategies revolve around this same concept of making an attacker go through multiple layers of defense, with one key difference: we’re applying that to our computer systems. Identity is the process of assigning each individual user and system their own unique name. Router/switch security.

It turns out that CosmosDB is used by some of the world’s largest organizations to manage massive amounts of data in near real-time. This means that if you're an Azure customer, you can use CosmosDB to manage your data for applications. Vamosi: There’s this concept of least privileges when sharing data.

As usual, I gathered an odd collection of links and articles from around the web on key data center technologies and trends. Couple something like GoBGP with IPVLAN L3 (see Brent’s article ) and you’ve got a new model for your data center network. Operating Systems/Applications. Welcome to Technology Short Take #65!

Living off the Land (LoL) is an attack where files already on your machine, ie your operating system, are used against you. Vamosi: Whenever there's a data breach, a ransomware attack, large security event in general, I would like to learn something about how it happened. Like all the unused files within your operating system?

With ransomware, attackers encrypt an organization's data and hold it hostage until a ransom is paid. Once attackers receive payment, they are supposed to share a decryption key, enabling victims to recover their data. And when you think of an API at attack, where that data is just exfiltrated. Ransomware is not new.
