Vince McMahon FIDOGAZETTE Vol 10 No 37 Page 2 September 14, 2016 ----------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================= A R T I C L E S ================================================================= This week we have a report from noted security expert, Bruce Schneier regarding a disaster that could occur as billions of devices are connected to the internet. Internet being probed with a view to taking it down, warns Bruce Schneier http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2470712/internet-being-probed-with- a-view-to-taking-it-down-warns-bruce-schneier or: http://tinyurl.com/ze9nk7g Sophisticated probing appears designed to find the exact point at which the net will break THE INTERNET'S underlying infrastructure is being probed for vulnerabilities by unknown attackers using sophisticated DDoS attacks, according to security expert Bruce Schneier. Schneier said in a blog post that companies providing the basic infrastructure that makes the internet work have reported an increase in DDoS attacks against them. "These attacks are significantly larger than the ones they're used to seeing. They last longer. They're more sophisticated. And they look like probing," he said. "One week, the attack would start at a particular level of attack and slowly Schneier did not name the organisations that have reported the new attacks, which have been going on for the past two years, but they are likely to include tier-one networks such as AT&T and Level 3 Communications, and DDoS mitigation services like CloudFlare as well as domain name system (DNS) providers. The findings are consistent with a report by DNS provider VeriSign (PDF) which said that DDoS attacks are increasing in sophistication. The scale and nature of the attacks point to the involvement of state actors. "It feels like a nation's military cyber command trying to calibrate its weaponry in the case of cyber war," Schneier wrote. [...] Read more at the above link.

Only In This Stupid World .....do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet Coke. Only In This Stupid World .....do banks leave vault doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.. Only In This Stupid World ......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage. Only In This Stupid World ......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight. Only In This Stupid World .....do they have drive-up ATM machines With Braille lettering. EVER WONDER ... why the Sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin? Why don't you ever see the headline 'Psychic Wins Lottery'? Why is abbreviated' such a long word? Why is it that Doctors call what they do 'practice'? Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavour, and dish washing liquid made with real lemons? Why is the man who invests all your money called a Broker? Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush Hour? Why isn't there Mouse flavoured cat food? Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes? Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections? You know that indestructible black box that is used on air planes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?! Why don't sheep shrink when it rains? Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together? If Con is the opposite of Pro, is the American Congress the opposite of Progress? If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the Terminal?

If you have an idea for a column or a series of articles, please contact me :) New! Mailing-List subscriptions via http://www.filegate.net/sub.html but of course you can always link into your uplink and use Tick or a tick compatible program. Where to Send Your Articles Unlike most editors, I surely do not mind running my mouth when there is a sparsity of articles for the 'zine. I'd MUCH rather you sent in material... lacking that, I will fill these issues with my meanderings and thoughts and hopefully we will grow into something of consequence here :) Write an article! If you WOULD like to submit an article, feel free to drop your article off at: Email attach to address: janis @ filegate.net Fidonet attach: Janis Kracht at 1:261/38 Modem: 607-200-4076 Binkp: 1:261/100 filegate.net port 24555 telnet mailer: filegate.net If you are using routed Fidonet mail, don't send articles as routed attaches. They will fail somewhere along the path before getting here. Send them instead direct to filegate.net. Give it a title, sign your name and network address if you have one and send it along! Don't worry about the format, I can take anything you send me and mutilate it further as you can see above. Linux is nice that way (g). Spell checking your own work will help though (something I'm typically guilty of (g)). To send reviews or recipes to the Food section, email or netmail Janis as above. Email address for submissions to Dr.Debug: To send a question to Dr. Debug, email a question to: drdebug @ filegate.net or post in the fidogazette echo! :) To send a listing to the FidoGazette bbslist, email your listing to: bbslist @ filegate.net or post it in the fidogazette echo!
