Ich teile mal hier diese interessante Diskussion auf administrator.de #administrator #cybersecurity #depol #fckbigtech
https://administrator.de/forum/cybervorfaelle-it-sicherheit-ransomware-schadensstatistik-676639.html

Got an #email that I had requested to deactivate my email address, just happens that I'm the owner of the #domain and the #mail domain #administrator and no I don't have any fancy web interface for this, I do have a nice command line tool that I use to disable/delete accounts.

If you see an email similar to this one, specially when the sender email not matching the domain, then don't click on the link to reactivate, it's just to harvest your email credentials.

If it really had been your mail provider that sent this email, it would have your registered name instead of the username part of your email.

Also the link provided to stop the process would be to a domain owned by the mail provider and not a random url at a shady domain like autorepairbill.com and also the mail would have been sent the same day as the request would have been done, not weeks later.

So people, please don't go to shady places and share your mail credentials, for when you do, the rest of us will get more #spam in our inboxes. It's as stupid as providing your credit card number to a shady site to "get back your" money from an invoice you never paid or even seen before.

PS. Payments can be returned to you without you providing any card or account number, it's just for the recipient to make a refund.

My company has been avoiding questions about extending my contract for a month now (the contract ends at the end of February), and yesterday posted job listings for my position...

I guess I'm looking for a new job now...? Anyone looking for a sysadmin with 4.5 years of experience?

People be like:

> " Oh noes!! My site is hacked!! 😱 Why did this happen? ⁉️ "

Well… you were using Mastodon v3 from over 5 years ago. That’s half a decade ago. That could be a clue. 🤡

Meanwhile, Mastodon 5.2 has a known security issue. It’s not exactly critical (not easy to trigger), but support for it ends next month — January 2026.

May I suggest you upgrade!

The current build is 4.5.3 (the nightly build is 4.6).

⚠️ Discontinued Notice: ⚠️

A reminder: the 4.2.x branch of Mastodon will be discontinued next month — it will no longer receive updates!

We strongly recommend anyone using this old Mastodon build upgrade to the current 4.5.x branch. If you’re adventurous, knowledgeable, and willing to take some risk, you could try the development 4.6 build.

Above all, move off 4.2.x as soon as possible. 😉

Question - how many of you that use #macos run your #user #account as an #administrator all the time? I keep seeing warnings that one should use the Mac using a regular #user account for safety, and yes I get that. But how many actually do?

btw, if you're working at a #school district, how would you like to be an #network #administrator with no logs? you don't know what that student is doing, you don't know if the filter is working, you don't even know the giolocation?
you know who's logged in, but you don't know what they're doing?
that's my school right now with me, they are totally blocked thanks to a few #firewall rules.
it's funny, because firewalls are supposed to do filtering, but we can tackle firewalls using our own firewalls.
in this case, their firewall is contentkeeper and my firewall is cloud flare gateway and i'm winning because I know exactly what i'm doing
