Enterprise Linux Security Episode 72 – Surveillance Facepalm
Imagine needing to ask your government permission in order to perform tasks such as installing a security patch, implementing an Intrusion Detection System, updating firmware or upgrading your operating system? If this sounds too ridiculous to be true, then you’re right – it is ridiculous, but unfortunately it’s a real proposal. In the U.K., Investigatory Powers Act 2016 (IPA) has had an adjustment proposed that could potentially make securing your systems more difficult than it’s ever been. In this episode, Jay and Joao discuss how these potential changes will complicate pretty much everything.

Enterprise Linux Security Episode 71 – Internet DRM
In this episode, Jay and Joao talk about two recent news developments that may have important implications on the overall industry. First, In response to Microsoft’s recent Azure debacle, a US Senator calls for a probe to look into the matter. Second, our main story is yet another facepalm worthy idea from Google that aims to add “integrity” to our browsers, but it’s oddly lacking in said integrity and almost completely devoid of common sense. Google’s “Web Integrity Protection” seems to protect only their ad dollars while making browsing more tedious for the end-user. Will it pass? What is it exactly? Jay and Joao have all the answers in this episode!

Enterprise Linux Security Episode 69 – Red Hat vs Enterprise IT
When it comes to Linux in the Enterprise, we have quite a few challenges we have to overcome on a day to day basis to ensure we can depend on our technology. We never thought Red Hat themselves would some day become our opponent, but here we are. In this episode, Jay and Joao will discuss discuss the latest impulsive and irresponsible decision Red Hat has made – as well as how that decision results in the company undermining their own customer base, while alienating the Linux Community at the same time.

The Homelab Show Episode 102: Red Hat & Why Open Source Is Hard

When it comes to Open Source, there’s always debates about various aspects of it – this isn’t new.

But it’s not just them – Open Source is sometimes a difficult subject to navigate. In this episode, Jay and Tom will discuss the Red Hat thing a bit, but transition into a much bigger topic – what should we or shouldn’t we expect from open source?

Enterprise Linux Security Episode 67 – No One Else’s Computer
We’ve all heard the cloud referred to as “Someone Else’s Computer”, but what do you do if you find your data is on No One Else’s Computer? In this example, there was a happy ending (data was restored) but it’s still an important consideration all the same. What do you do if your cloud provider all of a sudden doesn’t have your data? In this episode, Jay and Joao discuss a recent situation in which Azure customers found themselves in a bit of a bad situation.

The Homelab Show Episode 99 – Secondary Distro

What would you do if your daily driver distribution becomes something else entirely, and no longer fits your use-case? What would you do if your chosen distro all of a sudden went away? Although it seems unlikely, historically – this has happened. And given the fact that the Linux community is going to see a lot of changes in the near future with decisions from upstream distros – it’s never been a better time to choose a secondary distro (just in case).

Open Source Intelligence is a very interesting topic – it’s all about the things that might get unknowingly leaked, and this leaked information is perfectly legal to know and possess! The IP address that points to a domain, vacation photos on twitter, or even what you had for lunch can be used against you in order to build a profile.
