Given the latest news regarding "Flax Typhoon" and the botnet infecting
houndredthousands of devices like routers, nas, webcams, etc. [1]: How about
releasing a best practice guide or similar regarding on how to protect
infrastructure from getting infected and abused? I would be very happy getting
a statement from the fsfe experts on how to deal with such a threat from a home
user level up to large scale infrastructure (e.g. governmental). What can I do
to protect my single machine home lan? How do policymakers need to act in order
to protect the national infrastructure and data?
I think this would also complement the campaign about router freedom very well:
"durch fehlerhafte oder unsichere Geräte Botnetze aufgebaut werden" (fsfe,
2013) [2,3].
