Odd, the ones I have been in to do work on "my" racks, it wasn't uncommon for me to see nobody at all (not even a guard) the whole time.
Just row after row of servers doing their thing. Sometimes I would see the manager or a tech updating something.
Assuming that no plant ever goes offline for any reason and that there will be no other growth in Kenya ever.
That costs money. They were hoping the locals would foot that bill for them.
How many data centers in your immediate area? Are they the modern high density data centers with thousands of GPU units per rack or the old school 4U's in a rack supporting a few websites kind of data center?
As for employment, when is the last time you saw a data center that was bustling with human activity once construction and move-in was finished?
That was a joke! backhoes breaking fiber is part of the natural order.
That's why you should always carry a length of fiber with you. If you ever get stranded with no cell service, you can just bury the length of fiber in the dirt. When the backhoe guy comes along to break it, ask him for a lift.
Typically when using those tools, not every "issue" found is actually an issue.
It does nicely illustrate that AI may do a deeper scan, but not necessarily a better one.
There are existing rules based scanners for websites. Running one on any typical site will easily spit out more than 100 flagged issues. Some "consultants" will dutifully hand that report over and call it a day, but if you actually go through them, most if not all aren't even actual security flaws. Yes, if I POST data that includes the correct username and password, it will grant me access just as if I had filled in the login form. So what? Yes, if I give an invalid account number, it returns a page with (non-)error code 200. The page says "Access denied".
That isn't to say the AI tool is bad, just that it represents an EVOlution, not a REVOlution.
How will the automated ditch digger be sure to find and break the fiber cable?
Same thing happens with humans.
It's worth figuring out what your threat model is. There probably are ways that some government agencies can get into iPhones or decrypt these messages, and they probably are collecting all the encrypted data in case quantum computers can decrypt it later.
But are they going to waste any of that on you? Unless you are a high value target for them, and unless they intend to avoid any judicial process where their capabilities might become public, they probably aren't going to use their best tools to help the local cops break into your phone.
Those "271 zero days" in Firefox turned into 3 in in the patch-notes and only one was "high" severity. There is a lot of lying in the LLM field.
Well, an LTS kernel only lives so long and that is a problem. Maybe they should so a sort-of extreme LTS that gets security patches for 20 years and then drop all the old drivers from newer kernels.
I've heard the music that AI can produce. The run of the mill one hit pop stars are seriously endangered, but probably not actual musicians for fans with any level of sophistication (admittedly a smaller market).
Hand made guillotines are the future!
To the landlord belongs the doorknobs.
