@dbeato said in Protek Support MSP Ransomware Hits Customers in Salt Lake City, Utah:
I think that if it was VPN, still bad practice to have VPN from MSP or any other systems that unprotected. MSPs should not need to have VPN to customers at all.
And vendors wonder why I won’t let them VPN into my network.... ha
Last week was fantastic!
Drove to Greeley, CO - ok that was boring.
Drove to Moab - visited Arches National Park - drove a 4x4 trail - my friend nearly freaked out.. It was awesome!
Drove to Zion National park - walked The Narrows! - man, can't wait to go back.
Drove to Las Vegas - at at Gordan Ramsey's Steak - had the tasting menu - the Beef Wellington was meh at best, the rest was fantastic!!!
Drove to Hoover Dam took some dam pictures
Drove to Grand Canyon Skywalk - paid for the skywalk - was a let down!!! visit other viewing point in that area - SO MUCH BETTER than the over priced, no pictures allowed skywalk...
Drove to AZ south rim Grand Canyon - hiked the 3 mile trail, very scenic!
Visited Bedrock - Fred Flinstone's home town and watched a raptor show - and got to hold the raptor (on a a glove of course).
Drove to Four Corners - it was exactly what I expected - a plaque marking where the four states meet, took a picture and continued on...
Drove back to Greeley, CO -
and lastly,
Drove home.
58 hours in the car, 3200 miles, 5 states, 3 National Parks, a million pictures - great time!
As some might recall, I ran into Wiztree a month ago. I asked the author to look into adding it to Chocolatey.
And he did.

It's been a good year for Dashrender - down 40 Lbs since January!
Brought my mile time from 8:29 to 6:47.
Only bad thing - good cholesterol is a bit low (but bad cholesterol is in the good range). Doc suggested I drink Red Wine to improve the good Cholesterol.
Just read about this free book on that other site, thought i would share a link to it here.
I was restoring some files from our backups when I ran across this.
These files have been sitting there for a month plus. Unbelievably it appears that non of my other network shares were affected by this.
OMG - I think we some how dodged this bullet.

I've started another set of ports this morning.. they are going much slower than the previous rounds.
uh - maybe not... I just called one of them.. and it's in the new carrier's log.. so looks like that port is already done - just no paperwork to me yet.
If the new carrier is Skyetel and you are making a test call from Skyetel, it will route prior to port.
This is really the same for any carrier. Once it is listed in their network, calls on their network will use it.
DUH!.. thanks.

Already started the port out process.
What does that mean Jared? That you're moving (porting) the numbers to another provider?
Yes. This outage is not the reason, but it did accelerate the timeline.
This was the last client that I active support day to day that used VoIP.ms as their primary provider. It was previously planned to migrate in October after another project was completed.
@JaredBusch - Just curious, were you able to port out or is the request still pending?
It ported out on Monday. Their Toll-Free ported out on Tuesday. VoIP.ms still has it in their system, but I expect them to take days/weeks to process all the port outs.
My numbers that where ported out on Monday were no longer listed in VOIP.ms as of this morning.
I've started another set of ports this morning.. they are going much slower than the previous rounds.
I'm primarily asking in regards to HIPAA.
Most of us will say that Windows 7 is not secure today (aka not HIPAA compliant) because MS is no longer supplying updates for it.
With that in mind - I'd say - HELL NO the iPad 2 is not secure, and if PHI is touching it at all, forget-about-it!
OK Hive mind - I'm looking for opinions.
An iPad 2 - released in 2011, and not updated since iOS 9.3.5 in August 25, 2016.
Would you consider this a secure device today?
@dafyre said in ATA sp112 behind Sonicwall to Skyetel:
[takes thumb out of ass for a moment, speaking begins]
Isn't there an option in the Sonicwalls that has to be turned off (or maybe on)? I don't deal with them, so I'm not sure what that option is called any more.
[puts thumb back where it belongs]
SIP-ALG - yep.. that should be killed with fire!
@scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
Morning everyone. Coffee time around here.
that started 3 hours ago.
After I created a new account for someone, they heard from their rep in about 24 hours...
@gjacobse said in I can't even:
Oh FFS - Printers..... Toner.
oh yeah... I just love those....
But hey.. I pass it along to management - who SHOULD know the salary difference between us and how simple it is to change out a toner... but, beyond that I just swap them...
I probably spend 50% or more of my day being bench....
