Meaker

Got a new AX89X router to go with my new gigabit internet line. Yeah it's unbalanced but we don't do a lot of uploading so it's not too bad. The virgin media modem is in modem mode with a 2.5Gb connection to the router. This is on an AX210 2x2 setup upstairs from the router.

Bluetooth is usually based on the wifi card these days, make sure you turn off power management on it too.

Their final step is off site tape backups and a physical backup server that's going to be nicely isolated too. VLAN assignments are part of having an internal firewall and segmenting the network, so yep that's being locked down too.

It was an intrusion, they even got into the hosts and datastores. What you can do is limit access and damage if someone is compromised. Sure maybe a file share gets hit but with secure documentation and an internal firewall (not just a perimeter firewall) you can separate machines on the network properly and just restore from a backup if someone is compromised. Things like MFA (multi factor authentication) will also help stop that in the first place. It's a bit of a pain in the ass to set up and get it all right, and takes a bit more work for say Devs who want to run a new app but it's way better than rebuilding the network from almost scratch.

Nah, known group.

At least at the end they are going to have a much hardened network (not just perimeter firewall but internal separation too), better AD structure and group policies along with azure machine deployments and MFA. Should hopefully avoid it happening again.

About 25% rebuilding the network of a company that seems to be made up of decent people. I was just going to help out cover their desk but noooo sucky people have to suck. No time for me to play elden ring now 😞

*slaps hand* no play for you 😛

This a period of play with Elden Ring. The 9900K is going at about 4.3Ghz during gameplay, not much load. The 3070 thinks it's using 120W 😉

Just installed the latest drivers with NVcleaninstall (my 3070 is not original to my machine).

This is my veloster turbo, not many of them here in the UK (2-3 hundred).
