IT-Sicherheit ist für jedes Unternehmen überlebenswichtig!

Die Sicherheit der IT-Systeme, aber auch die Kompetenz im Umgang damit, ist wesentlich für die moderne, digitale Wirtschaft. Mit der Aktion „it-safe.at“ bietet die Bundessparte Information und Consulting (BSIC) in der WKÖ vor allem kleinen Unternehmen Hilfestellung.

Datensicherheit und Datenschutz durch Technik und datenschutzfreundliche Voreinstellungen (Privacy by Design & Privacy by default)

Eine Möglichkeit die technischen Anforderungen der kommenden EU-Datenschutz-Grundverordnung zu erfüllen ist die Implementierung des Konzepts „Privacy by Design“.

This report contributes to bridging the gap between the legal framework and the available technolog-ical implementation measures by providing an inventory of existing approaches, privacy design strat-egies, and technical building blocks of various degrees of maturity from research and development. Starting from the privacy principles of the legislation, important elements are presented as a first step towards a design process for privacy-friendly systems and services.

This is a technical reference for advanced users familiar with PKI processes. If you need a more detailed description, see the EasyRSA-Readme or Intro-To-PKI docs instead.

Our kickass setup will allow us to do a series of cool things related to daily development operations:

Two Factor Authentication
PAM Authentication (logging into your linux/mac PC)
GPG mail and GIT commit signing/encrypting
SSH Authentication

In this post we’ll look at a few ways of customizing tmux and vim to help get more done with less typing and context switching.

The LEDE Project (“Linux Embedded Development Environment”) is a Linux operating system based on OpenWrt. It is a complete replacement for the vendor-supplied firmware of a wide range of wireless routers and non-network devices.

Convert VMDKs (VM's disk), even when having multiple files, to qcow2 format (note: QVM/QEMU should be able to deal with vmdk files (multiple as well?), so possibly this step is redundant):

qemu-img convert <vmdk wildcard> <qcow2 file>

1

qemu-img convert <vmdk wildcard> <qcow2 file>

Convert the vmx (VM's settings) to xml (requires vmware2libvirt tool found in virt-goodies package)

vmware2libvirt -f <source.vmx> > target.xml

1

vmware2libvirt -f <source.vmx> > target.xml

import the xml:

virsh -c qemu:///system define file.xml

1

virsh -c qemu:///system define file.xml
