Mit der Rückkehr von Donald #Trump ins Weiße Haus wird die Abhängigkeit von #US-#Cloud-Diensten zu einem wachsenden Problem.
Denn der
#CloudAct zwingt US-amerikanische Firmen Anweisungen von US-Behörden Folge zu leisten, ganz gleich wo deren #Server stehen.

Nicht nur Staaten und Unternehmen, sondern auch Privatpersonen sind betroffen.

Angefangen bei #Datenspeichern über #Online-#Office-Anwendungen bis zu grundlegenden Internetdiensten wie #DNS oder Zertifizierungsstellen.

Es betrifft selbst smarte Geräte wie #WLAN-Steckdosen, wenn deren zentralen Dienste auf einem #Hyperscaler wie #Amazon #AWS oder #Microsoft #Azure liegen.

Doch es gibt Möglichkeiten, den #Datenabfluss zu minimieren und #Alternativen zu nutzen.


Welche das sind, erläutert c’t Redakteur Peter Siering. Die Optionen reichen von #Suchmaschinen über europäische Cloud-Speicher und Open-Source-Projekte bis zu dezentralen, sichereren #Messengern.

(sophos.com) Evilginx: How Attackers Bypass MFA Through Adversary-in-the-Middle Attacks news.sophos.com/en-us/2025/03/

A short descriptive article about Evilginx and how stealing credentials work, a few suggested ways of detecting etc.

Summary:
This article examines Evilginx, a tool that leverages the legitimate nginx web server to conduct Adversary-in-the-Middle (AitM) attacks that can bypass multifactor authentication (MFA). The tool works by proxying web traffic through malicious sites that mimic legitimate services like Microsoft 365, capturing not only usernames and passwords but also session tokens. The article demonstrates how Evilginx operates, showing how attackers can gain full access to a user's account even when protected by MFA. It provides detection methods through Azure/Microsoft 365 logs and suggests both preemptive and reactive mitigations, emphasizing the need to move toward phishing-resistant FIDO2-based authentication methods.

"#Microsoft expanded its partnership with Schlumberger, an oil-technology company, to develop and launch an AI-enhanced service on Microsoft’s Azure platform. Azure provides cloud computing to a variety of organizations, but this product was tailor-made for the oil and gas industries, to assist in the production of fossil fuels, among other uses."

Now that it appears my move to BSD.cafe is complete, I believe it’s time for a #introduction.

First, I want to say how great it is to be part of the BSD.cafe community. I’m thrilled that this instance exists and is thriving.

I’m Blake, a Systems Administrator with a knack for #networks and #DevOps. Currently, I work in the insurance sector, focusing on #technology solutions for agricultural businesses. I have extensive experience with #Linux, #AWS, #Azure, and a variety of network solutions, from Fortigate (#FortiOS) to Netgate (#pfSense). I consider myself a big-picture solver, dedicated to enhancing infrastructure efficiency and security.

I’ve been using Linux daily since the late 2000s, when our family’s Windows XP machine gave out and I got my hands on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. Since then, I’ve experimented with everything from Arch Linux to Void Linux. Recently, I’ve started exploring #FreeBSD and #OpenBSD, and I’m truly enjoying the fresh experience they offer.

When I’m not immersed in technology, you’ll find me participating in ultra-endurance #cycling events or tinkering with my #homelab. I’m committed to continuous learning and love sharing insights on cutting-edge network and server technologies. I also enjoy exploring how technology intersects with everyday life.

One of these days, I plan to create a proper blog site to share my thoughts and experiences.

I look forward to connecting with fellow tech enthusiasts and homelabbers!
