How to crack Cisco IOS with SNMP RCE examples.
The multiple components that make the cloud need to come together seamlessly.
This holiday season, we published a buying guide for “smart toys,” as well as steps you could take to secure them once they were home. As we start the new year, it’s a good time to revisit Holiday DDoS Attacks: Targeting Gamers (Plus Five Things You Can Do). Last year Ryan Polk wrote, “gaming networks are most often targeted by DDoS attacks, as the end of year holidays usually bring many users online who are eager to try out their new games and systems.” He included the following helpful tips.
Five actions to protect your devices from becoming bots:
How Does Internet Work - We know what is networking
EtherChannel enables bundling multiple physical links connecting same devices into a single logical link. I will try to show you how it is configured and how it works. The issue with one uplink I made an example with 8 clients connected to two Cisco 3850 switches. For start, those two switches are connected together with 1G copper on Interface Ge1/23. The clients are also connected to 1G ports. In this case, when all of those four clients on the left side start simultaneously sending traffic at full speed to different computers on the right side, they will congest the uplink
Hi,
I have been getting a lot of requests offline and online on the lab setup I use, I have to say I have tested many things and finally settled with Vmware ESXi 5.5. Eve-ng was good but not good enough when spawned with multiple instances of qemu, maybe because my host operating system might be slow enough for it.
I will cover the connectivity for two VMX devices but the logic Remains same for any device connectivity.
What I have Already
-> Vmware Esxi5.5
-> Dell R810
-> Insane amount of time to waste :), I hope you won’t fall into the same path.
You need to have the OVA files, all settings are straightforward, don’t even worry about Memory allocations yet, there is time for that and also the networking part, import the OVA
There will be two OVA images
Vfp – forwarding plane
VCP – Control Plane
General import – No Rocket science – Don’t worry about any settings as of now
This is how my VCP looks like – Again don’t worry about any networking here, catch here – VCP has only two networking Adapters – One for Fxp0 which is the Continue reading

Today the tech media is focused on the announcement of two security vulnerabilities, nicknamed Meltdown and Spectre, that are found in almost all CPUs used in modern devices. Mobile phones, laptops, desktop computers, cloud services, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices are all vulnerable.
There are many articles being published on this topic. The best source of information I’ve found is this site by the security researchers at the Graz University of Technology:
At the bottom of that page are links to the security blog posts, advisories, and other statements from companies and organizations across the industry. In an excellent example of the principles of Collaborative Security, the announcement was coordinated with the release of patches and updates for a wide range of operating systems and devices.
For readers wanting a deeper technical dive, the site from Graz University has links to multiple academic papers. Google’s Project Zero team also published a detailed technical analysis.
From our perspective, today’s news highlights a couple of points:
Linux is cool and can do amazing things in the enterprise data center, whether it’s hosting a web app or acting as an Internet firewall. But what makes up the modern Linux OS? What are the many pieces and parts that make the Linux OS work? Before we answer those questions, let’s start by answering a few more basic questions about Linux architecture such as…
The short answer is that an operating system, or OS, is software that you load on your hardware to make it do things. Without an operating system, most hardware is useless. For example, you might have a Dell computer that runs the Windows 10 operating system from which you run your applications. You might have an iPhone that runs the iOS operating system. You may also have an Apple MacBook that runs the Apple macOS operating system. The operating systems on these hardware platforms are what enable them to run applications, as shown in the graphic.
The kernel is the special piece of the operating system that controls the CPU hardware, allocates memory, accesses data, schedules processes, runs the applications and Continue reading
