OH HEY, JUST TELL THEM TO LENGTHEN THE ADMIN PASSWORD AND YOU'LL BE FINE, RIGHT NONAME? HAHAHA:LOL::LOL:

I'm too old to do your research for you, since EVERY link you've provided is weak at best and wrong at worst so here; https://www.grc.com/sn/sn-594.pdf

No, you basically can't. Any "references" you would be posting would be wrong. "Your guy" is the author of that first link you referenced. Again, there's no such thing as one over the other here; length and complexity are to be paired if your goal is to have a more secure passphrase. Using one...

Yes, let me clarify; It's MORE prevalent now than it was in the past because more bad actors are now turning their attention to taking advantage of the now known ways of subverting the s7 protocol, but not as much REPORTING on it has been done, probably because no one likes to admit to being...

That's NOT what your own guy says in the article; it's BOTH, THAT's what security professionals like Dr. Matthew Green from Johns Hopkins says, Bruce, Schneier says, Steve Gibson says, etc. Length is NOT more important, Length PAIRED with complexity is what makes it MORE secure, NOT length...

Wait, what?? ......No dear, this works even against massive online cracking arrays... Straight from your own link: "I can't stress enough the importance of having length paired with complexity." --Which is what I said.

It's actually both. password strength is provided by length and complexity, if you define complexity as randomness. The more random, and the more characters used, (length) the more secure the password is. (Of course, if that password isn't STORED properly, it's a moot point.

OMG :shifty: SMS has been depricated for use as a form of 2FA for a reason. Also, it's not clear in the article that this is for local accounts, only Microsoft Accounts, which to me is bad for those who are trying to log on while on public networks that have portal pages where you land first. I...

Two points here. One: Your ISP (if they care) can discover you are running a VPN, which may be considered suspicious. Two: How well do you trust your VPN provider, because you are trusting them with a lot. Also, if the government wants to spy on you they can simply monitor VPN exit points. All...

US Senate Passes Bill That Would Create Pilot Program to Examine Using Analog Controls for Power Grid Security The US Senate has passed a bill that would establish a pilot program aimed at reintroducing analog security controls to the country’s power grid. The Securing Energy Infrastructure Act...

I'm not aware of any ability that circumvents an ISP's blocking of VPN services. Unfortunately you are at the mercy of your ISP. Unless you can change to one that doesn't block vpn services, I don't think there's anything you can do. You would be risking being terminated from your ISP if you...

https://www.grc.com/never10.htm They should've used Steve's utility...Now, Windows 10 is pretty much free, and they've stopped their nagging you..yes?

That picture under he [H] headline is fucking CLASSIC!

So, would you agree then, that a new iMac these days with a single AMD GPU with 4GB of memory is sufficient to play some pc games via Bootcamp? It sounds like you are saying a multiple GPU setup these days in a PC (2 or 3) aren't worth paying the money for the extra GPU's... Or am I missing your...

^^^THIS!

No IoT devices in my house ever. I don't need to be notified that I need milk, or to change a lightbulb. If you do use IoT devices, put them on their own separate network, using the Ubiquity Edge Router, and call it a day. https://www.ubnt.com/edgemax/edgerouter/

BUT I WANNA PLAY!!! :arghh::arghh::arghh:

I was thinking the same thing. Seems to be dangerous if the notification system gets compromised.

Never mind that Apple TV nonsense, WHERE'S MY SLI/CROSSFIRE SUPPORT ON IMACS!!!???? :vamp::vamp::vamp:

HELLOOOOOOO????? COOKIE MIX??? NEVER MIND THE LEGALITY OF SILLY DATA, COOOOKIIEEEES!!!!:jawdrop::jawdrop::jawdrop::jawdrop::jawdrop:

Never mind the data, gimme the chocolate cookie mix!!!!:p

You also spelled her first name wrong.. It's Barbra, not Barbara. LMAO!!

It's illegal under current interpretation of copyright law. Very difficult to enforce (youtube take downs as an example) but if an artist wanted to, they could argue it in court

What Schneiderman (and subsequently his test) don't understand is that the connection you pay for as a customer only covers your connection speed from your device (controlling for wifi and multiple devices, etc) to your ISP's network. Doing a test to servers OUTSIDE of their network they aren't...

Have you looked at the Astaro Gateway? It will turn any old computer you have into a hardware firewall by installing their software image. I've heard great things about it and I believe it's free. http://www.astaro.com/node/11427

Have you looked at proXPN? https://www.proxpn.com/index.php

It's an opinion piece. Sorry but quantity does not equate to quality. Same for the U.S.

Really. Did you even read his protocol? What kind of a comment is that? And you "teach IT to end users?" It's attitudes like that that are enabling users. Please quit your day job

Yeah. Techcrunch, last place to look for any news relating to security. That said, here's your solution for "ending passwords". https://www.grc.com/sqrl/sqrl.htm Have a nice day

Good to know. I don't torrent or stream over wifi too much except on my phone and my wife's phone which isn't a lot, with FiOS 150/150, but I have two consoles I game on wired to the router. The wife wants a Roku (and after explaining to her that she hardly watches what's been recorded on the...

If it's going to auto update itself then there's a back way in for them to do the update, and god knows what else, so that's a big NO from me. Have you tried a Buffalo router with Tomato or DD-WRT on it?
