Linksys, Netgear, etc... Perhaps you didn't perceive how great a threat this is to your banking and other privacy related data, so here it is, finally having made it to the New York Times - remember, you got it here first on Zero Day, now it may be too late, with all of your confidential data compromised.

By now you've certainly heard the news on this. Forget about Alexa, Disable your "Smart TV"!!! The next time you're chatting with someone about cooking meth or cheating on your income tax... Guess what, Big Brother is listening, recording, compiling your dossier. Ever read Orwell's 1984? Remember when the two lovers were caught? That big TV screen dropping into the room saying, "Yes, you are the dead ones".

Following up on our post from two days ago, There's even more fallout and concerns surrounding the integrity of your personal data and finances that should not be ignored... I'm sure most of us have an old beater box PC sitting under a stack of boxes in our garages, or stuffed away under a rack of apparel in a hallway closet. This #threat directly concerns YOU, and the next time you consider buying one of those little consumer grade routers at Walmart or BestBuy, please, cons...ider instead repurposing that old decrepit PC you didn't throw away with a real industrial firewall system with #OpnSense or #pfSense - best of all, the software is FREE, Enterprise grade, and it's exceedingly easy to deploy. We can provide you with free advice and assistance in acquiring and installing a bullet proof firewall system on your old PC or laptop at your home or place of business, and if you want us to deploy it for you we'll be happy to do so for less than the cost of one of those rickety little appliances at your local big box store. This is a serious threat folks, and it's hot off the press from the #FBI today, so please treat it with the wisdom that your #privacy and #banking information deserves. Feel free to contact us for assistance at https://Cloud.NorthTech.US

13 Years ago, Sony invaded everyone's homes by installing rootkits on their CDs, creating a backdoor and breaking into your lives. Sony President Thomas Hess said, "most people, I think, don't even know what a rootkit is, so why should they care about it?" OMG! REALLY???? And you thought Led Zeppelin was heavy. Well, beware folks, coz D-Link just made everything in your house owned by hax0rs all over the globe with a new back door... Oh, man. Gimme a break will ya? Yes it's a...n older model, but after getting away with this for so long... Well the question is, how many of you have D-Link routers in your homes or offices? Hm......

#hashcat to the rescue (part 3 of 3): Now that we have your attention on this critical failing on the part of most everyone you know, let's offer some relief in the form of solutions to the dilemma. First, what is a good methodology to create a strong password - a master password - to use for your password manager. Then, after choosing a password manager, let's go and update all of your online accounts with new and random passwords of exceedingly long lengths. Worst case scen...ario: Even if one site gets compromised, it's just one site, none of your other accounts will be vulnerable and you can continue to move forward and sleep at night without wondering how many of your bank accounts are going to be depleted. Contact us anytime you need some sound assistance in choosing a password manager, implementing this in your life or company, and extending the use of sound security practices to include all of your employees - we will be happy to consult with you on safeguarding your personal and business assets whether onsite, in the cloud, or even your mobile devices such as phones and tablets.

#hashcat to the rescue (Part 2 of 3) Here's where you get the scary stuff - you can witness in real time just how simple it is for your passwords to be cracked and sold on the open market. Next, and now that we've sufficiently frightened you, we'll show you how you can safeguard all of your banking accounts and business assets so you can sleep at night.

#hashcat to the rescue! Um.... Or NOT? Have you been pwn3d? Would you know if you have?... 1.) use a different and long whacky random for every different site and resource or account that you log into! 2.) Manage this with a password manager 3.) Make your master password virtually unbreakable - after all, this is the only one you ever need to remember anyway. This is a three post series that should scare you, then educate you, then show you how to sleep at night, secure in the knowledge that your accounts are as secure as you can make them. We recently had a customer who, thinking they had a clever password, was completely owned. Days and dollars later we were called in to restore and secure her infrastructure. In the meantime, she continued to pay employees for doing nothing as her business plummeted like a plane that was shot down, narrowly escaping impact... Don't let this happen to you, "Be afraid. Be very afraid!". Take this seriously and ask how we can help you secure all of your online activity and business infrastructure, because chances are, it's not if, but how many times you're passwords have been cracked already. https://m.xkcd.com/936/
