This doesn't surprise me. I run modsecurity WAF and iptables, yes I know but iptables does the job for now, with custom rules and logging policies and it is amazing to see how many so called legitimate sites have been owned.
I used to contact site admins and participate in exchanges of offending IPs but I gave up a long time ago to run my own countermeasure system.
Boy we went a long way since the beginning with regards to that.
Here the goal is to make the engine spend as much fuel as possible, hence the term "chaotic combustion". The system can maintain the engine in a "chaotic combustion" state in real time
1) be ready when your watch shows 00:00:00
2) wait until it shows 00:00:01
3) press button
4) now watch shows 00:00:00
elapsed time: 1 second
did you ever own a watch?
> So, what do you intend to do during that extra second added to that day? Well, you may want to fix your systems.
Nah, I am just going to going to set my watch during that extra second.
I prefer to always carry a safe file in my pockets. I allowed me to open a few.
I don't think he is. The Concorde had a weakness that was discovered only in one of the last flight.

>Thirdly, "bought" 30 million certs?
Oh and yes, that's why we were both laughing our hearts out and calling shenanigan at the same time. As I wrote in my OP, I would have been glad to generate those certs for them for 10,000$ instead of the 30,000,000$ they spent. But hey, a buck a piece for certs is a great deal, isn't it?
The usb key solution was suggested as well but the conclusion was that dumb users would lose their usb keys and that it would become too costly to manage.
In the end, we seem to be doomed unless we educate people.
I agree it is currently. It is funny although what a little education could do but most of the times, educated people are less easy to profit from. Therefore, marketing guys will rarely suggest educating people as a solution.
In the end, education and instant knowledge is needed.
I entirely agree but for some, namely the ones who still use symmetric keys, this has become an old school thought.
In Canada, the government bought 30 millions certificates for all its citizens in oder to authenticate for government on line services for a buck a piece. Total: 30,000,000$
I would have been glad to provide it to them for 10,000$ and guess what? All privaye keys were kept centrally
The big thinkers/marketing guys decided that it was just to complicated for citizens to manage and keep their secret key in a secure location.
Very nice thoughts. Just to let you know, English ain't my mother tongue.
It would still be English, it is how it evolved.
