My history of choosing a monitoring system

Sysadmins are divided into two categories - those who already use monitoring, and those who do not yet. A joke of humor. The need for monitoring comes in different ways.

And even for sure they have already written the necessary manuals and […]

Legendary modems of the past: the best connection holders in domestic PBX conditions

Anyone who has ever heard the sound of a modem connection to the Internet over a telephone line will never forget it. For the uninitiated, this is not a very melodic combination of sounds. For those who depended on modem communication, these sounds are like magic music. Now, in 2019, dial-up has become an old and unnecessary technology for the vast majority. Indeed, a slow connection with the ability to […]

DLP-system DeviceLock 8.2 - a leaky fence guarding your safety

In October 2017, I happened to attend an advertising seminar for the DeviceLock DLP system, where, in addition to the main functionality of leak protection such as closing USB ports, contextual analysis of mail and clipboard, administrator protection was advertised.

A detailed response to the comment, as well as a little about the life of providers in the Russian Federation

It was this comment that inspired me to this post. I bring it here: kaleman today at 18:53 I was pleased with the provider today.

The provider is small, and apparently higher providers are blocking. I also noticed a slowdown in the opening of all sites, maybe […]
