Video: Portmaster - die perfekte Desktop-Firewall

Schütze deinen Linux-Desktop mit der Applikations-Firewall Portmaster. Du kannst den Zugriff im Detail und pro Anwendung einschränken, sodass wirklich nur noch die Apps ins Internet kommen, die es auch sollen. Mithilfe von Filterlisten wird zusätzlich lästige Werbung ausgeblendet und du bist wirklich sicher im Netz unterwegs.

Ransomware gang creates tool to automate VPN brute-force attacks

The Black Basta ransomware operation created an automated brute-forcing framework dubbed 'BRUTED' to breach edge networking devices like firewalls and VPNs.

In the past three days, I've switched my #homelab to a new #ReverseProxy! After using #NginxProxyManager and #Zoraxy, I've now moved to #Pangolin.

Pangolin allows me to provide my #selfhosted services from my home lab without needing to open a port in my #firewall.

Essentially, it's a self-hosted alternative to #CloudflareTunnels, running on a #VPS. Due to the current political situation in the #USA, I preferred not to use Cloudflare.

Pangolin is based on #WireGuard and #Newt, enabling a #certificate-based direct connection after installing a client on the home server.

I'm extremely satisfied with it and now have no open ports in my private #network!

iKOOLCore R2 Max Review: Using this mini PC a network or storage appliance

The iKOOLCore R2 Max is a mini PC that launched late last year as a small, versatile computer designed for use as a networking appliance or general purpose computer. It supports up to an Intel Core 3 N355 Twin Lake processor and 32GB of RAM.

While the iKOOLCORE R2 I reviewed in 2023 was a palm-sized PC with two 2.5 Gb LAN ports, the new model is much larger and features four high-speed […]

10 years ago I ran LineageOS on my phone and at home I ran a really restrictive firewall. I was blocking port 5228 outbound & I think that caused the phone to factory reset sometimes but I'm not sure. It was really annoying when it happened. Has anyone ever come across it before?

FreeBSD vs. OpenBSD: Which One Should You Choose?

https://techrefreshing.com/freebsd-vs-openbsd-which-one-should-you-choose/

Was busy this week in work. Two project go-lives coincided because of the dates shifting on both sides. Not fun.

Managed to get my new firewall running and made sure my minilab was setup.

Taking a week off now after the projects in work. Will be doing some much needed home admin.
