The Kenya Education Network (KENET) supports communities that build Internet infrastructure in Kenya. For nearly a decade, KENET has been working with the Internet Society to grow capacity of higher education campuses, Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions, and young engineers. They peer at the Kenya Internet Exchange Point, and they’ve also been […]

To prevent cheating in exams many countries restrict or even shut down Internet access during critical exam hours. For most of June Syria is having planned Internet shutdowns during critical exam periods. The exam schedule is as follows:
I’m grateful to a Twitter user for the translation from the original Arabic and collating the data.
Cloudflare Radar allows anyone to track Internet traffic patterns around the world, and it has country-specific pages. The chart for the last seven days of Internet use in Syria as seen by Cloudflare shows two drops to almost zero corresponding to the first two exams on the schedule.
The Internet outage starts at around 0100 UTC (0400 local time) and ends about four and a half hours later at 0530 UTC (0830 UTC). This covers the period before the exams start apparently to prevent any figuring out the answers.
If you want to follow the other outages for the remaining seven exams you can see live data on the Cloudflare Radar Syria page.

Agent Tesla is a remote access tool (RAT) that is known for stealing credentials from several applications, including web browsers, VPN clients, and mail and FTP applications. It also supports keylogging, screen grabbing, and other functionality. Since it first came on to the scene in 2014, Agent Tesla has evolved into a fully customizable commercial malware tool, which is readily available on underground markets. Given the huge popularity of the malware, this threat has been thoroughly covered by the threat intelligence community, including our analysis in 2018 [1], our reports on COVID-19 related cyber threats [2] [3], and a recent article describing a surge of infections [4]. More recently, we detected a new wave of Agent Tesla attacks that exhibited some interesting characteristics, such as requesting a connection to top European football club websites.
In this blog post, we first present some of VMware’s NSX Advanced Threat Prevention telemetry and email metadata from the attack. We then provide our analysis detailing the most distinctive aspects of the attack, from the use of well-known European football club websites to key tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).

TCP and QUIC are the two primary transport protocols in use on the Internet today—QUIC carries a large part of the HTTP traffic that makes the web work, while TCP carries most everything else that expects reliability. Why can’t we apply the lessons from QUIC to TCP so we can merge these two protocols, unifying Internet transport? TCPLS is just such an attempt at merging the most widely used reliable transport protocols.
According to the global IXP Database, as of January 2021, of the 630 registered Internet Exchange Points (IXPs), 229 are in Europe, 126 in North America, 140 in Asia-Pacific, 96 in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), and 39 in Africa. Although the LAC region is second-last on the list, there has been a strong […]

Nearly 80,000 participants registered for DockerCon Live 2021! There were fantastic keynotes, compelling sessions, thousands of interactions and everything in-between that a developer and development teams need to help solve their day-to-day application development challenges.
In all that excitement, you might have missed the new innovations that Docker announced to make it easier for developers to build, share and run your applications from code to cloud. These enhancements are a result of Docker’s continued investment and commitment to make sure developers have the best experience possible while making app development more efficient and secure.
Application security is directly tied to the software supply chain. Developers are realizing the importance of integrating security as early as possible in the development process. They must now consider the security directives of their organization and associated compliance rules while also enabling their teams to work in the most secure, efficient way possible.
These new product enhancements bolster security in a number of dimensions including scanning for vulnerabilities during different development stages and increasing team security by offering tools such as audit logs and scoped access tokens.
Take a look at what we announced:

Gotta have cloud on the resume to get the next job ?
Docker Inc. started like many startups with engineers working from a single location. For us, this was in the Bay Area in the US. We were very office-centric, so the natural way to increase diversity and to get engineers from different cultures to work together was to open new offices in diverse locations. Right from the start, our goal was to mix American and European ways of producing software, giving us the best of both cultures.
In 2015, Docker started to open offices in Europe, starting with Cambridge in the United Kingdom and followed by Paris in France. With these two locations, the long road to gaining experience working with remote employees began.
Having multiple offices scattered around the world is different from being fully remote. But you still start experiencing some of the challenges of not having everybody in the same location simultaneously. We spent a great deal of our time on planes or trains visiting each other.
Despite the robust open-source culture of the company, which shows that you can build great software while not having everybody in the same room, we still had a very office-centric culture. A lot of the Continue reading
When I wrote about my sample OSPF+BGP hands-on lab on LinkedIn, someone couldn’t resist asking:
I’m still wondering why people use two routing protocols and do not have clean redistribution points or tunnels.
Ignoring for the moment the fact that he missed the point of the blog post (completely), the idea of “using tunnels or redistribution points instead of two routing protocols” hints at the potential applicability of RFC 1925 rule 4.

The so-called “Magnificent 7” or “Super 8” hyperscalers and cloud builders of the world may comprise a substantial slice of worldwide sales of servers, storage, and networking, and the cloud capacity and hyperscale services they provide may in turn represent a significant – but nowhere near dominant – chunk of overall IT spending. …
