Aaron Rodgers discusses Packers wide receivers with NFL Network - Packers Wire

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers sat down with Stacey Dales and Steve Mariucci of NFL Network after Saturday’s practice, and the obvious question came up: What does the four-time NFL MVP think of the current group of wide receivers in Green Bay?

“I like the guys we’ve got,” Rodgers said. “There’s gonna be the same amount of balls and yards and touchdowns to go around, so now it’s just a matter of who is going to be in those situations to make those plays.

Departed wide receivers Davante Adams, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Equanimeous St. Brown combined for 241 targets, 158 catches, 2,081 yards and 14 touchdowns last season.

Rodgers is confident in the current receiver group making the most of the opportunities available in the passing game.

He specifically talked about six of the wide receivers in his answer to Dales and Mariucci:

On Christian Watson: “Not having Christian out here has probably been tough for him, but I expect him back in a couple of weeks.”

On Romeo Doubs: “Romeo Doubs has had a really nice start to camp. Getting a lot of attention based on some of the plays he’s made. Like the approach, very understated kid, very humble kid…It’s surprising how many teams passed on him. Whatever the reason was, we all feel really good about Romeo and the start he’s gotten off to.”

On Allen Lazard: “Obviously, Allen Lazard is going to step into the No. 1 role and I think it’s going to be a very seamless transition for him. As a primary blocker and kind of a niche guy for us, to get an opportunity to get more throws, be the No. 1  in the progression more often.”

On Randall Cobb: “When Randall Cobb stays healthy, I think he’s still an excellent slot receiver.”

On Sammy Watkins: “Sammy Watkins just came back to us yesterday, but he has a lot of experience, he’s on a short deal, he’s got a lot to prove. I think those guys are a little more dangerous because there’s so much more to play for for those guys. Allen Lazard, on a one-year deal as well.”

On Juwann Winfree: “There’s a lot of opportunity behind them. Juwann Winfree has stepped up as he does almost every single training camp, and he’s off to a really nice start.”

Helium says its crypto mesh network is used by Lime and Salesforce — it isn't - The Verge

On Friday, Mashable reported that Helium, a crypto project praised by The New York Times earlier this year and whose parent company is backed by investment firms like Andreessen Horowitz, had been misleading people about the companies it works with. Helium advertises on its homepage that Lime, the mobility company behind those electric scooters and bikes, uses its crypto-powered mesh wireless network. The company, however, told Mashable that it hasn’t had a relationship with the company since 2019, and that it had only ever initial testing with Helium’s tech.

Now, Salesforce, whose logo appeared on Helium’s website right next to Lime’s, says that it also doesn’t use the technology. “Helium is not a Salesforce partner,” Salesforce spokesperson Ashley Eliasoph told The Verge in an email. When I followed up to ask about the graphic below, which appeared on Helium’s website, Eliasoph said that “it is not accurate.”

Sometime between 4:35 PM ET and 5:30 PM ET, Lime and Salesforce’s logos were removed from Helium’s home page. The Verge sent an email to Helium asking about its relationship with Salesforce at 4:48PM ET, which the company hasn’t responded to at the time of this writing.

Unlike many crypto projects, it’s actually relatively easy to understand Helium’s core pitch (though there are absolutely ways to complicate it if you want). The idea is that you put a Helium hotspot — which could cost anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars — in your house, and the network’s users connect to it when they’re close by and need some data. The more data that goes through your hotspot, the more HNT (Helium’s cryptocurrency) you’d earn.

In short, it’s a sort of decentralized mesh network, where the individuals running the nodes are able to profit from providing their data. (It is worth noting, though, that using your home internet like this violates the terms of service agreements for many internet service providers.) The economics supposedly works because companies or individuals pay to use Helium’s network instead of, say, cellular data.

Members of the r/helium subreddit have been increasingly vocal about seeing poor Helium returns.

On average, they spent $400-800 to buy a hotspot. They were expecting $100/month, enough to recoup their costs and enjoy passive income.

Then their earnings dropped to only $20/mo. pic.twitter.com/0jx2zLUaiA

— Liron Shapira (@liron) July 26, 2022

Now, though, we have to ask: who wants to pay for it? Not many people, it seems. As one Twitter thread points out, a report from The Generalist says that only around $6,500 worth of data credits (or DCs) were spent to access Helium’s network last month. That’s a sharp contrast to the millions of dollars people have spent on equipment to set up hotspots for the network in hopes of profiting, and it’d be shockingly low if Lime were actually connecting its scooters to the network, or if Salesforce customers were using it to monitor warehouses, like Helium pitched in 2017.

The New York Times article, which called Helium an example of “how crypto can be quite useful in solving certain types of problems,” listed Lime as well as Victor, a rodent and reptile trap company, as Helium users. Lime’s obviously now denied that’s the case (and says it’s sending a cease and desist to Helium), and Victor didn’t immediately respond to The Verge’s questions about whether it uses the network. However, the site that Helium touted as the place to buy Helium-enabled Victor mousetraps in its announcement of the partnership no longer seems to sell them. There also don’t appear to be any mentions of Helium in Victor’s documentation.

Helium’s documentation, however, does hint at Victor’s products, saying, “a Helium Network user requires 50,000 DCs per month to send data for their fleet of Helium-connected mouse traps. (Yes, these actually exist, and they are glorious.)”

We also reached out to Dish, which announced last year that it would use Helium’s 5G network. That announcement is also posted on Helium’s homepage, right near the top under “latest news.”

I’d like to wrap this up with a parting thought. The author of the Times story says Helium couldn’t really work without crypto technology attached, citing the fact that the company launched without any sort of crypto integration, and only came up with the idea when it was on the brink of collapse. But for years, underserved communities have had to build their own local networks after being ignored by the government and communications companies. That runs contrary to what this chipper Helium ad implies; that people would only be willing to do something for their community if they’re getting paid for it. Then again, it’s not necessarily surprising that Helium misrepresented a vital piece of the puzzle.

How does proper SSH key management protect your network? - TechTarget

You wouldn't let hackers download permission to get root access on your organization's internal network -- but if you're not managing your SSH keys properly, your systems could be at risk of just such an attack.

Network and system administrators and information security professionals routinely use SSH to gain access to resources everywhere in the enterprise or other large networks. In practice, however, many SSH users skimp on key management and leave their networks wide open to attacks exploiting SSH keys that have root permissions enabled and that never expire.

This is a problem because SSH is so widely used for implementing identity and access management (IAM) and privileged access management (PAM). SSH enables secure remote access for authorized users, using public key authentication and asymmetric encryption.

Why is SSH key management important?

Proper SSH key management can mean the difference between safely using one of the best network security tools and opening an organization's entire network to exploitation. While individual users are able to create SSH keys using the ssh-keygen utility, this ad hoc approach is counter to modern cybersecurity DevOps principles that emphasize oversight and control.

SSH makes it possible to bypass password protection on critical servers when a user logs in from a host that has authenticated itself by sharing a public key and a signature using the associated private key. SSH keys can quickly multiply -- without controls -- and they don't expire. In addition, there's no default central authority that can keep track of who is signing in to sensitive systems. This means organizations often find themselves with a large number of SSH keys -- in some cases, as many as millions of SSH key pairs -- to manage.

SSH keys present a problem for network and security professionals who manage access to their organizations. SSH keys give users access to network resources in the same way user IDs and passwords are used.

This means SSH key management is as critical to enterprise security as any other systems for protecting user credentials. Other important reasons for getting a grasp on SSH key management in large organizations include the following:

• Widespread use of SSH, especially by network and security professionals who use it as an ad hoc tool for connecting to remote resources, means many undocumented SSH keys may be distributed on many different network hosts. Other security risks related to unmanaged SSH keys include stolen keys used by hackers and the use of SSH keys with improper permissions levels.
• Regulatory compliance rules may require SSH key management. SSH keys are access credentials, which means the same type of compliance required for any other access credentials apply to SSH. These include regulations and standards related to HIPAA, PCI DSS and Sarbanes-Oxley.
• Too many unexpired SSH keys present attackers with opportunities to exploit enterprise resources. SSH Communications Security reported research results that showed a high degree of key sprawl with as many as 90% of SSH keys in its customers' systems that were not being used.
• Granting permissions improperly is also an issue. SSH Communications Security found 10% of SSH keys were granted root access on its systems, which itself raises the stakes for organizations using SSH authentication. A compromise of a single key -- if that key is permissioned improperly -- could enable attackers to bypass firewalls, install malware or otherwise subvert more than one remote server.

Research shows SSH keys created for use in large organizations can quickly rise to such high numbers, with as many as one in 10 of those keys representing authenticated identities with root access. While SSH may be considered a method for strongly authenticating remote users, when SSH keys get out of hand, it may also be considered a source of serious vulnerabilities.

What is SSH key management?

SSH key management is the process by which an organization can use automation to identify all cryptographic keys associated with the SSH application, determine levels of permissions assigned to those keys and administer the use of those keys for SSH access.

SSH key management systems address the following issues:

• provisioning of public keys
• inventorying SSH public keys
• monitoring use of SSH public keys
• terminating SSH public keys that should be revoked

SSH key management systems must be implemented along with, and in line with, a complete set of key management policies and procedures that can help reduce the risks associated with using SSH, especially on critical systems that hold sensitive information or that perform mission-critical functions.

SSH key management systems also may be used to administer the creation of new SSH keys.

Some of the functions SSH key management systems can help implement are the following:

• key management policies to maintain control over access to restricted resources;
• SSH key rotation, a strategy for removing or replacing an SSH key that is no longer required -- key rotation calls for removing or replacing unneeded keys from the authorized_keys file on an SSH server; and
• SSH key lifecycle to put key management policies in place to control processes for the following:
  • requesting new SSH keys;
  • approving requests;
  • provisioning requests;
  • logging use of approved keys;
  • regular reviews of key-based access;
  • reauthorization of SSH keys in use; and
  • termination of SSH keys when their use is no longer valid.

When properly implemented, an SSH key management system gives organizations a way to standardize control over the creation and use of SSH keys. This also enables the organization to maintain control over who may access internal resources and what permission levels they have.

What is at stake with SSH key management?

Although the SSH protocol itself is considered secure, many vulnerabilities are still related to using SSH for privileged access to remote systems. Executives should consider addressing these vulnerabilities as part of the process of planning an SSH key access management system.

SSH key management is a key feature for deploying SSH in any large organization.

Some types of vulnerabilities relating to SSH key management are the following:

• Vulnerabilities in the SSH implementations being used. This includes issues related to the software implementing the SSH protocol, as well as issues with system configurations and protocol weaknesses. For example, legacy servers may still support connections using the original version of SSH, SSH1, also called SSH v1 or SSH-1. Because SSH1 has known security vulnerabilities, most experts recommend using version SSH2
• Access control issues. These refer to cases where too-generous user privileges are configured in accounts used by individuals or by processes to access and control resources they should not be permitted to access or control. In other words, one should configure user accounts to limit their permission levels to run commands as the root user. This type of configuration issue must be addressed at multiple levels to take advantage of the organization's existing OS directory systems, as well as other mechanisms, such as Kerberos, for authentication of user identities.
• Compromised keys. Keys that have been stolen, leaked or otherwise revealed are a big risk -- likewise for old keys that have not been terminated, which could easily be in the next hack or leak. The vulnerability is compounded when the compromised key is a backdoor key, a key designated to bypass the organization's PAM system. While such keys may make some processes easier for authorized users -- such as logging in to any organizational network resource without passwords -- when compromised, these keys give attackers full access to the organization's network.

SSH has a well-deserved reputation as the gold standard for securing network connections. But, while the SSH protocol itself is recognized as secure, the way the protocol is implemented and used may still leave it vulnerable to various attacks. SSH key management is one way to prevent many such attacks.

Tips for implementing an SSH key management system

Identifying the requirements is the first step to implementing an SSH key management, according to the NIST report, "Security of Interactive and Automated Access Management Using Secure Shell (SSH)." Some of the recommended best practices for setting up and using SSH key management in that document are the following:

• Implement SSH securely. This means being judicious in where SSH server processes are enabled, as well as keeping all SSH software updated and patched, configuring systems securely and limiting permissions using the principle of least privilege.
• Harden SSH software. This includes disabling SSH1 access, disabling other authentication methods, limiting groups and accounts authorized to use SSH authentication, and disabling SSH port forwarding.
• Maintain secure policies for SSH identities and authorized keys. This includes setting standards for creating keys. For example, some of the policies that should be addressed are the following:
  • minimum key lengths and permitted algorithms;
  • key lifetimes and key expiration processes;
  • identity key access control;
  • using passphrases for interactive users;
  • setting IAM policies related to copying identity keys -- they should not be allowed, but if allowed, guidelines should limit risk; and
  • setting limits on who is allowed to install keys.
• Set up a continuous monitoring and audit process. The only way to ensure policies are implemented correctly and system access is secure is to monitor and audit the systems that are implementing those policies.
• Identify all SSH servers, SSH keys and SSH trust relationships. Enumerating all the SSH entities -- SSH servers, SSH keys and the trust relationships those keys represent -- is just the first step. Once identified, these entities need to be reviewed to make sure they comply with organizational requirements and policies. If they don't, they should be replaced as required.

Balancing the potentially high number of unsanctioned keys with the ongoing need to use SSH for legitimate purposes, it makes sense to automate as many processes as possible. Organizations may already have some of the tools necessary. For example, identifying and enumerating SSH entities in a network can often be done using existing vulnerability scanning systems to identify SSH servers.

Other processes that should be automated -- because they are done so often -- include the provisioning and installation of new SSH keys independently of system administrators and the continuous monitoring of SSH exchanges to make sure all systems are working properly.

Virgin Media O2 owners to build wholesale UK fibre network - Reuters

• Summary
• Companies

• New JV will invest 4.5 bln pounds
• Network could reach 7 mln premises
• Rival BT's shares fall as much as 4.4%

LONDON, July 29 (Reuters) - The owners of Britain's Virgin Media O2 have joined forces with French investment firm InfraVia Capital Partners to plough around 4.5 billion pounds ($5.5 billion) into a new fibre broadband joint venture, increasing direct competition with BT (BT.L).

Virgin's owners Liberty Global (LBTYA.O) and Spain's Telefonica (TEF.MC), plus InfraVia, said the network would cover around 7 million premises across the UK, in areas not already covered by the existing Virgin Media network, and offer wholesale access to other broadband providers.

BT has long provided the main wholesale network in Britain, giving access to the likes of TalkTalk and Sky. BT is ploughing billions of pounds into its network, extending its fibre offering to 25 million premises by end-2026.

Virgin Media O2 CEO Lutz Schuler said the new JV network combined with an upgraded Virgin Media network would potentially offer gold-standard fibre connections to 23 million premises by 2028.

"We will have two nationwide fibre networks," Schuler said in an interview. "I think that's fantastic for the UK."

Britain, which has lagged most other European countries in the super high-speed network race, is aiming for nationwide full-fibre broadband coverage by 2033 in an attempt to boost economic growth.

It hopes 15 million premises will have full-fibre broadband by 2025.

Friday's investment announcement knocked BT's shares to a session low. By 1123 GMT, the stock was down 1.4%, lagging the main index, after falling as much as 4.4% earlier.

Virgin Media's owners said the new network would be available to 5 million homes that are not served by the current Virgin Media O2 network by 2026, with an opportunity to expand to an additional 2 million homes.

The deal will include 3.3 billion pounds of fully underwritten financing commitments and up to 1.4 billion pounds in equity commitments, the groups said.

Schuler said the company was in discussions with broadband providers such as Sky, Vodafone (VOD.L) and TalkTalk about wholesale access, which would be offered across the new network and Virgin Media's existing footprint.

He said wholesale deals were "like a marriage", lasting a decade or more, so the company wanted to get them right, saying it will take the time needed instead of rushing into them.

He declined to comment on reports that Virgin Media O2 was in talks about acquiring TalkTalk. read more
