Submission + - My product development (O'Reilly) now a free download! (oreilly.com)

occamboy writes: I'm psyched that O'Reilly's made my book "Prototype to Product" freely available for download, to help teams developing products in response to COVID-19. It's a high-level cross-functional engineering look at how... well, how prototypes are developed into manufacturable products. Covers electronics, software, mechanicals, manufacturing, project management, regulatory, and so forth. Currently at 4.8 stars on Amazon, and only two of the reviews were by friends of mine :).

Hint: Figure 1-1 is all you really need to know, the rest is details.

Unfortunately anything that can transmit from your car can be captured and logged.
Changing plates is just a visual thing.

Your phone. Leave at home.
Your fitness watch etc check.
Change tags check.
Cut wires to entertainment system check.
Cut wires to onstar check.

Not just governments in Texas have been targeted. Our company was hit two weekends ago Saturday. Unfortunately I was in early Saturday morning to work on a project and discovered it. I hated being the one and making the call.

You firewall rules I am reading below will not help you.

These are social engineer attacks, with email, usually to sales and appearing to come from a known customer or vendor.

In the end, the insurance paid with our company and we had a 25k deductible. Took a week to clean up.

The infected computer directly attacks domains. Once the domain controller is toast so is the rest of your domain stations.

I had several pcâ(TM)s not part of the domain and they were fine.

They are after cash and itâ(TM)s working. Encrypted the servers, backup systems and all window domain controlled databases.

Yes in a way not terrible to clean up and I am sure they will have a much better system in the end. We all know mid size companies like to hold back expenses on IT.

Maybe a wake up call for some CEO who does not want to commit funds to secure the infrastructure.

BTW none of the antivirus picked it up,

We now have sensor system that runs on each pc, and can disconnect the pc from the network if itâ(TM)s detected.
