Why want to swing such a big hammer. Even blocking those 2 IP's will isolate your users, and fill your support queue's. Set up a DNS server locally to reply to those IP's Your customers stay up and running and blissfully unaware. Log the IP's hitting your DNS servers on those IP and have your s

Re: NSA able to compromise Cisco, Juniper, Huawei switches

There are many ways a backdoor could be used in a properly secured system. To think otherwise is a huge mistake. I can think of several ways, if tasked and given the resources of a large gov't that I would attack this problem. To assume that those tasked and focused only this type of solution a

Re: Friday Hosing

I could support any of these services myself, and have guys that work me that can as well, but none of these are my core business, and my investors REALLY prefer me focusing on my core business, I suspect most of us have shareholders, investors, owners that feel the same way. I struggled with idea
