Internet Infrastructure Attack Warning
 |
Opting to trust the consumer grade products and much of the professional networking componentry to the likes of China where we have become ripe for the plucking with the prey using the enemy's provisioning of essential infrastructure devices.
Fools who would vote for the brigand Obama and his NWO ilk are directly responsible for this vulnerability and it's not surprising given the vast idiocy displayed by his constituents otherwise.
So, if we're not hit by some massive EMP killing all services for months on end we are likely going to be mined individually by those espionage elements of the chinese military.
So ... I have been compelled to use double barrier firewalls. A hardware outer layer coupled with a software edge protector and this works for me ...
ALL because I don't trust the chinese to omit any backdoors or other points of exploitation. They still cannot penetrate the inner sanctum ... to the best of my knowledge and I am a log checker extraordinare !
I fear for the others who are not sophisticated enough to both read between the lines and prepare provisioning of their own design.
ICANN is promoting vigorous warnings about the dangers yet you see little to nothing in the main stream media which has reduced itself to fake news, political backbiting, and other aspects of petty yellow journalism.
Key parts of the internet infrastructure face large-scale attacks that threaten the global system of web traffic, the internet's address keeper warned Friday.Sooner or later our stupid liberal mentality is going to do us in on the world stage where exploits of your "warm and fuzzy" ignorance of the real world is going to be the downfall of all of us.
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) declared after an emergency meeting "an ongoing and significant risk" to key parts of the infrastructure that affects the domains on which websites reside.
"They are going after the internet infrastructure itself," ICANN chief technology officer David Conrad told AFP.
"There have been targeted attacks in the past, but nothing like this."
The attacks date back as far as 2017 but have sparked growing concerns from security researchers in recent weeks, which prompted the special meeting of ICANN.
The malicious activity targets the Domain Name System or DNS which routes traffic to intended online destinations.
ICANN specialists and others say these attacks have a potential to snoop on data along the way, sneakily send the traffic elsewhere or enable the attackers to impersonate or "spoof" critical websites.
"There isn't a single tool to address this," Conrad said, as ICANN called for an overall hardening of web defenses.
US authorities issued a similar warning last month about the DNS attacks.
