I always keep a usb around with freedos for that reason. Works great and you don’t have to deal with windows

By that logic FireFox and pretty much every company is in the same boat

Grifters all the way down then

iCloud does have E2EE if you enable it

Maybe they are thinking of iVentoy which is not open source but is by the same dev

The article he linked specifically mentioned that the data is sent to matrix’s servers even when using a self hosted server though

The article says that’s what the government is telling employees since there were several critical vulnerabilities found in chrome. It is very convenient that these vulnerabilities were patched in the same update that manifest v2 is removed though

You sweet summer child

How are they going to get past my firewall rules?

Ya that just sounds like good practice for internal services.

@[email protected] Maybe see if you can use a FIDO2 device like yubikey for 2fa

You can watch rss feeds to follow all CVEs like Microsoft’s https://api.msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/rss

NIST used to have an rss feed for CVEs but deprecated it recently. They still have other ways you can follow it though https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/data-feeds

Or if you just want to follow CVEs for certain applications you can host/subscribe to something like https://www.opencve.io/welcome which allows you to filter CVEs from NIST’s National Vulnerability Database (NVD)

It’s like getting mad at math because rich people use it to count money

I had to deal with the same thing in outlook. A user was complaining that their password manager wasn’t working when opening links from outlook and didn’t even notice it was opening in edge instead of chrome.

Its more likely that they are required to have insurance that would cover ransomware due to the sensitive information they have on patients

Sure if it fails completely it will, but it doesn’t catch everything. Here’s a related story I have:

At work we had a bunch of Lenovo X1 Carbons running windows that would have the usb-c ports die seemingly randomly on users which was a big problem since that’s also the charging port. There never seemed to be any similar root cause connecting the incidents and Lenovo’s support wasn’t any help. Our entire company is remote but luckily we had onsite support so for a while they would just come by and replace the whole motherboard each time.

Finally one day while scheduling a repair the support guy I was talking to just said, “Oh I’ve seen this before. It’s just a bad update and resetting the CMOS battery by putting a paper clip in this hidden hole fixes it.” We had the user try it out and the ports worked fine again. Apparently they had run some windows updates that failed silently and were causing the hardware issues.

From then on any time a user has had a hardware issue we can’t figure out we just have them try the reset and it has worked every time. This only happens probably 3-4 times a year but we only have less than 40 of these machines so not an insignificant amount.

You can use a VPS or cloudflare in that case

It’s a satire account
