Es gibt aktuell kein echtes Cloudflare-Äquivalent in Europa.
Warum?
Weil Cloudflare nicht „nur CDN“ ist, sondern ein integrierter Stack:
DNS + SSL + Reverse Proxy + Edge + Security – und das im Free-Tier.
Europäische Anbieter wie Bunny, OVH oder Gcore sind stark – aber jeweils nur Bausteine:
Wer Cloudflare ersetzen will, baut eine Architektur aus mehreren Komponenten – und übernimmt selbst die Integration.
Bequemlichkeit vs. Souveränität.

Wir patchen unsere Server zu Tode, aber am Ende öffnet jemand ein ".vbs"-File in WhatsApp Desktop. Game over. (wirklich so schnell!)
Der aktuelle Microsoft Defender Report zu einer neuen WhatsApp-Malware-Kampagne ist ein Lehrstück in Sachen "Living off the Land" (LotL). Während wir nach neuen, komplexen Exploits suchen, nutzen die Angreifer einfach das, was auf Windows-System tooltechnisch von Haus aus gegeben ist... und tarnen es so gut, dass selbst erfahrene Admins zweimal hinschauen müssen.
Das Problem: Social Engineering trifft auf System-Tools. Die Attacke startet nicht auf dem Handy, sondern dort, wo wir uns sicher fühlen: am Arbeitsplatz. Per WhatsApp kommen schädliche VBS-Skripte (Visual Basic Script). Wer klickt, startet eine Kette, die so "stealthy" ist, dass sie fast schon wieder elegant wirkt 😏
Die technische Wunde: Die Tarnkappen-Taktik. Die Angreifer nutzen keine offensichtliche Malware, sondern verbiegen das System:
#Masquerading: Legitime Windows-Tools wie curl.exe und bitsadmin.exe werden in versteckte Ordner kopiert und in netapi.dll oder sc.exe umbenannt. Die PE-Metadaten bleiben gleich, aber der Name täuscht simple Systemaktivität vor.
#Cloud-Weaponization: Die Payloads liegen auf AWS, Tencent oder Backblaze. Wer filtert schon legitimen Cloud-Traffic komplett weg?
UAC-Bruteforcing: Das Skript versucht so lange mit Admin-Rechten zu starten, bis der User genervt auf "Ja" klickt oder die Registry-Einträge für UAC-Prompts im Hintergrund manipuliert wurden.
Die Lösung: Härtung statt nur Detektion, denn leider reicht ein reiner Virenscanner hier nicht, wenn das Tooling "legit" ist.
What to do:
1️⃣ Script-Execution blocken: wscript.exe und cscript.exe haben in User-Verzeichnissen (besonders AppData oder ProgramData) nichts verloren.
2️⃣ Metadata-Monitoring: EDR-Tools müssen auf Diskrepanzen zwischen Dateiname und OriginalFileName in den PE-Headern triggern.
3️⃣ User-Education: WhatsApp ist im Business-Kontext ein riesiger blinder Fleck. Anhänge dort sind genauso kritisch zu prüfen wie E-Mail-Attachments.
Am Ende landet ein unsigniertes MSI-Paket auf dem Rechner, das via AnyDesk den direkten Remote-Zugriff erlaubt. Die Backdoor ist offen, und der Angreifer sitzt mit im Büro 🫱🏻🫲🏾 Zeit für eine weitere Tasse Kaffee...

I teach cybersecurity. And I genuinely don't know what to tell my students after this one. Federal reviewers spent years trying to get basic encryption documentation from Microsoft for its GCC High government cloud. They couldn't get it. One reviewer called the system a "pile of spaghetti pies," with data traveling from point A to point B the way you'd get from Chicago to New York: a bus to St. Louis, a ferry to Pittsburgh, and a flight to Newark. Each leg is a potential hijacking. They knew this. They said this out loud in writing. Then they approved it anyway in December 2024, because too many agencies were already using it. 🔐 That's not a security review. That's a hostage negotiation. Two things in this story should make every CISO and CIO uncomfortable:
🧩 Microsoft built its federal cloud on top of decades of legacy code that it apparently can't fully document itself
👮 "Digital escorts" often ex-military with minimal software engineering backgrounds are the firewall between Chinese engineers working on the system and classified U.S. networks 🤦🏻♂️
The scariest line in the whole ProPublica investigation isn't the "pile of shit" quote. It's this: FedRAMP determined that refusing authorization wasn't feasible because agencies were already using the product. Read that again. The security review process reached a conclusion based on sunk cost, not risk. Ex Post Facto Fallacy
If that logic holds, the compliance framework is just documentation theater. And right now, CISA is being hollowed out, so there are fewer people left to even run the theater.

Gestern Abend hat wieder jemand erfahren, dass die #Cloud auch nur der Computer von jemand anderem ist.
Account von Unberechtigten übernommen. #microsoft verweigert die Rückübertragung. 26k Mails für Fremde einsehbar. Adressbuch aus Outlook weg. Daten unverschlüsselt in der Cloud weil MS den Leuten suggeriert, das wäre okay.
Cloud ist okay. Wenn man darüber nachgedacht hat und weiß, wie man sich absichert. Einfach alles quasi aus Versehen zu nutzen was die Techbros einem anbieten, ist jedenfalls ein sicherer Weg, doll auf die Nase zu fallen.
"For years, reviewers said, Microsoft had tried and failed to fully explain how it protects sensitive information in the cloud as it hops from server to server across the digital terrain. Given that and other unknowns, government experts couldn’t vouch for the technology’s security.
Such judgments would be damning for any company seeking to sell its wares to the U.S. government, but it should have been particularly devastating for Microsoft. The tech giant’s products had been at the heart of two major cybersecurity attacks against the U.S. in three years. In one, Russian hackers exploited a weakness to steal sensitive data from a number of federal agencies, including the National Nuclear Security Administration. In the other, Chinese hackers infiltrated the email accounts of a Cabinet member and other senior government officials.
The federal government could be further exposed if it couldn’t verify the cybersecurity of Microsoft’s Government Community Cloud High, a suite of cloud-based services intended to safeguard some of the nation’s most sensitive information.
Yet, in a highly unusual move that still reverberates across Washington, the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, or FedRAMP, authorized the product anyway, bestowing what amounts to the federal government’s cybersecurity seal of approval. FedRAMP’s ruling — which included a kind of “buyer beware” notice to any federal agency considering GCC High — helped Microsoft expand a government business empire worth billions of dollars."

Great #video by @garyhtech on why #BSD will never own the cloud.
#Linux owns the #cloud and frankly I'm fine with that. #FreeBSD doesn't need to compete with Linux in this area. It may not have the massive ecosystem, but given its strengths, it functions just fine for back end #infrastructure, in general and niche use cases.
People frequently tout FreeBSD for #ZFS and #Jails but honestly I think #Ports and #Poudriere are huge selling points
This is going to be an ongoing trend of high #computing #cloud prices. Pivoting to private and self managed #cloud is going to this year's #datacenter #business trend.
Federal Cyber Experts Thought Microsoft’s Cloud Was “a Pile of Shit.” They Approved It Anyway.

🚨 A major change in federal cybersecurity quietly took place. The General Services Administration, which handles government purchasing, has updated its IT security rules to match the Department of Defense’s strict CMMC standards. For federal contractors, simply checking boxes isn’t enough. 🛡️
If you work with Controlled Unclassified Information, strong security is now a must for government contracts. The GSA now expects Zero Trust principles 🔒, including proof of encryption, multi-factor authentication, and ongoing monitoring. This change also carries legal risks ⚖️ if you can't demonstrate real compliance, your company could face lawsuits under the False Claims Act.
📑 The GSA now requires CMMC-level security documentation for contracts with civilian agencies.
⏱️ These compliance requirements apply right away to new contract opportunities and awards.
⚠️ Federal contractors now face greater legal risk if they misrepresent their cybersecurity readiness.
✅ Zero Trust data principles are no longer just a best practice; they're now required as the standard.

God I hate how much the 'recent' folder in Apple macOS has screwed up people's knowledge of where files are stored.
Most beginning to intermediate computer users have no idea where their files are, how to find them, or how to organize them.
Also, automatically forcing people to save onto the Cloud rather than their computers in a way that automatically limits their storage capacity and degrades their user experience is wrong.

The price increase from Hetzner made me rethink my personal infrastructure ..
- Migrated last service off an old auction server
- Moved the content of my StorageBox to my FreeBSD ZFS
- Migrated and cancelled a CPX42 VPS instance
- Migrated and cancelled a CAX21 VPS instance
One more CX23 is currently in the process of being virtualized on my Proxmox cluster.
The Mastodon instance burningboard.net is still running there as cloud instances. But the price of those resources will only increase by ~4€/Month and I don't want to migrate it again (Just moved on the current system in December 2025)
So in the end, the Hetzner bill will be considerably lower in the future, since I reduced my infrastructure footprint by a lot and consolidated things on my bare metal servers in a CoLo datacenter 🙂
Sometimes a trigger like that can break through the laziness and have a positive outcome 🥳

The digital town square is getting a upgrade ito defend against synthetic reality. YouTube just announced the expansion of AI-assisted deepfake detection tools, specifically prioritizing politicians and journalists. This move acknowledges the truth that voices and faces can be cloned in seconds and we need more than just manual reporting to survive.
The system uses a combination of facial recognition and audio analysis to identify content that has been manipulated. While no tool is perfect, this is a major step toward protecting the integrity of public discourse. You should watch how these tools evolve, as the ability to verify what is human and what is synthetic will soon be the most valuable currency on the internet.
🧠 YouTube is expanding its detection algorithms to automatically flag synthetic likenesses.
⚡ The tool focuses on protecting individuals most likely to be targets of misinformation campaigns.
🎓 Content creators must now disclose when they use generative AI to depict real people.

The honeymoon phase of AI-driven productivity is meeting the harsh reality of system stability. Amazon has officially updated its internal policies to require senior engineers to sign-off for any code changes assisted by generative AI. This move follows a series of significant service disruptions—referred to internally as "high blast radius" incidents—where AI-generated code led to major product outages.
For a company that values speed and a "you build it, you run it" culture, this is a massive shift. It turns out that while AI can write code in seconds, the cost of an error at AWS scale can be measured in hours of downtime and millions in lost revenue. We are seeing a necessary correction: AI is a powerful assistant, but it cannot yet be trusted with the keys to the kingdom without a seasoned human expert verifying the logic.
🧠 Amazon now mandates senior review for all AI-assisted code deployments.
⚡ The policy change follows a spike in high-priority Sev2 incidents.

@carnage4life I keep quoting a variation of this thought to colleagues, because I think it helps us each frame our situation:
The impact to expect from AI tends to be predicted by one's reaction to hearing that junior team members are shipping to production at 20x their previous rate.
I have to admit, I'm noticing "20x junior DevOps" outcomes across most cloud services I interact with, lately.
I'm personally looking for alternatives to those services, but it takes time to switch. I might microblog on that journey later.
But I'm certainly not angry at any of the up-and-coming 20x junior DevOps folks! We need them!
But I do also look forward to when they mature into 1x senior DevOps folks.

💠 Holographic storage used to be the stuff of science fiction or expensive, failed experiments. We usually expect massive capacity at the cost of proprietary hardware that forces us to throw away everything we already built. HoloMem is taking a different path by making holographic tech work inside the tape libraries you already have in your data center. 😳 The move from magnetic tape to light-sensitive polymer ribbons is the core of this change. These cartridges look like standard LTO units but hold eleven times the data on a ribbon that is ten times shorter. Because the polymer is physically stable, you can turn off the air conditioning in your archive room and walk away for fifty years.
🧠 The system uses a five-dollar laser diode to write data as volumetric voxels.

Apple designed Lockdown Mode for people facing grave threats, but we're seeing it work in practice against federal forensics. During a recent investigation into a journalist, the FBI reported that it was unable to extract any data from an iPhone because the feature was enabled. It is rare for a software setting to hold its own against professional, state-level tools. 🔒 The strength of this mode comes from how it drastically reduces the attack surface of the device. By disabling just-in-time JavaScript and blocking most message attachments, it removes the entry points that forensic tools like GrayKey typically exploit. It also forces the device into a state in which biometrics are disabled, requiring a passcode that often carries stronger legal protections during a search.
🧠 Lockdown Mode specifically blocks wired data connections used by extraction hardware.
⚡ The FBI confirmed in court filings that its Computer Analysis Response Team was blocked.
🎓 Using this mode requires giving up features like shared photo albums and link previews.

The tech world is currently with OpenClaw, the open-source agent that finally gives AI hands. It can browse the web, execute terminal commands, and manage your emails. While offering a glimpse into a future of total automation, it's also become a textbook example of a security nightmare. The very features that make it useful—system access and persistent memory—are exactly what make it dangerous. 😱 The problem lies in the collapse of traditional security boundaries. OpenClaw operates as you, bypassing the sandboxing that usually protects your operating system from the browser. Because it can reason over and act on external content, a simple malicious email or a poisoned webpage can quietly steer the agent to exfiltrate your data or run harmful scripts. We are seeing thousands of instances exposed to the open internet with little to no authentication. ☠️
🧠 OpenClaw binds to all network interfaces by default, making it visible to the public internet.
⚡ Malicious skills in the community marketplace have been caught installing info-stealing malware.
🎓 Indirect prompt injection allows attackers to hijack the agent via the data it processes.
🔍 Security researchers have already identified critical RCE vulnerabilities with high CVSS scores.

🇫🇷 The French government is sending a message about digital independence by ditching Microsoft Teams and Zoom for its own platform, Visio. This move is not about a lack of features but a calculated push for digital sovereignty. By 2027, every government department in France will communicate via this sovereign stack, ensuring that sensitive data remains subject to European law. The shift addresses a growing concern that relying on foreign cloud giants creates a strategic vulnerability. France is opting for an open-source architecture built on Django and React, hosted on the domestic Outscale cloud. This infrastructure removes the risk of external service disruptions while fostering a local tech ecosystem.
🧠 The Visio platform integrates with Tchap, a secure messaging app based on the Matrix protocol.
⚡ French startup Pyannote provides the AI backbone for meeting transcripts and speaker identification.
🎓 The administration expects to save millions in annual licensing fees by using in-house software.
🔍 Data remains strictly within French jurisdiction to bypass foreign data access laws.

We spend billions on firewalls and zero-trust architecture, only to be undone by a copy-paste command by someone who should know better. The U.S. cyber defense chief "accidentally" feeding classified intelligence to an unsecured version of ChatGPT is the ultimate reminder that the greatest vulnerability in any system is the person using it. Technology is outpacing our muscle memory. When a tool feels like a helpful colleague, we treat it like one—forgetting that LLMs are basically giant, permanent digital sponges. If the person in charge of the nation's digital shield can trip over the AI threshold, your team probably is too.

Zum Thema "ownCloud Infinite Scale" habe ich auf @gnulinux einen Artikel geschrieben:
We aren’t just fighting basic threats anymore; we’re up against algorithms that exploit our own behavior before we even realize we’ve been targeted. In cybersecurity, we've shifted from defending perimeters to defending identities in a world where seeing—and hearing—is no longer believing.
I recently spoke with InformationWeek about the escalating threat of AI-based attacks. From agentic AI to deepfakes, the gap between platform vulnerabilities is where the real danger lives. My take? If your security team is still relying on manual processes to fight automated attackers, you’re bringing a knife to a railgun fight. We’re doubling down on zero-trust and out-of-band authentication to ensure the person on the other end of the "urgent" request is who they claim to be.
🧠 Deepfakes are becoming extraordinarily dangerous and difficult to guard against.
⚡ Automated detection is no longer optional—it is the only way to keep pace with attacker speed.
🔍 Out-of-band authentication (OOBA) is critical for verifying identities through separate channels.
🎓 Closing the "natural gaps" between platforms is the primary goal of modern zero-trust.

They say Chicago is the city of broad shoulders, but after yesterday’s FutureCon, I’d argue it’s the city of sharp minds. Despite the January chill, the energy was electric. It’s rare to have this many practitioners in one room who are equally committed to dismantling silos and building sturdier fortresses. The most sophisticated firewall in the world is useless without the human intelligence behind it. Yesterday wasn’t just about the tech stack; it was about the collective wisdom of a community that refuses to be outpaced by the threat landscape. If you missed it, you missed the blueprint for the year ahead.

Ein praktischer Leitfaden zeigt, wie fünf Docker-Container eine komplette Produktivitäts-Stack ersetzen und volle Datenhoheit zurückgeben.
We have spent a decade chasing "frictionless" user experiences, but we forgot that friction is what gives us pause when we need it. New research shows that millions of users are at risk from SMS sign-in links designed to make their lives easier. It turns out, when you send a "magic link" via an unencrypted, legacy protocol like SMS, you aren’t just inviting the user in—you’re inviting anyone who can guess a simple URL string.
The arrogance of modern implementation is breathtaking. We are seeing services that use low-entropy tokens (easily guessed by incrementing a number) and links that never expire. This isn't just a technical glitch; it's a fundamental design failure. We’ve treated the phone number as a digital soul-tether, failing to realize that SMS is effectively a postcard sent through a crowd. If the link is the credential and public, the account is no longer yours.
🧠 Vulnerable tokens: Many services use predictable URL patterns that attackers can brute-force in minutes.
⚡ Eternal sessions: Authentication links frequently fail to expire, leaving personal data exposed for years.
🎓 Massive scale: Over 700 endpoints across 177 services were found leaking sensitive financial and identity data.
🔍 False security: "Possession" of a link is being treated as "identity," bypassing the need for actual passwords.

🇺🇸 America is hurtling toward an AI regulatory "Splinternet," and it isn't coming from overseas; it’s coming from within. As the federal government remains paralyzed by partisan gridlock on nearly every issue, individual states are rushing to fill the vacuum with their own AI mandates. We are witnessing the birth of a legislative patchwork that threatens to turn the American tech landscape into a navigational nightmare for startups and tech giants alike.
It is a fundamental disagreement over who gets to hold the leash on the most transformative technology of our century. When California, Texas, and New York each define "algorithmic bias" or "high-risk models" differently, compliance becomes an impossible burden on progress.
🧠 Regulatory Vacuum: Congressional inaction has forced states to create a chaotic patchwork of conflicting AI laws.
⚡ The Compliance Burden: Smaller AI firms face an existential threat as they struggle to navigate 50 different sets of rules.
🎓 Ideological Divide: The battle lines are drawn between "accelerationists" and "protectionists," with no middle ground in sight.
🔍 Global Stature: This internal friction risks slowing U.S. development while international rivals move toward unified standards.

We’ve spent the last few years treating AI like a science fair project—lots of cool pilots, very few polished products. But as we hit 2026, the mandate has shifted from "can we do this?" to "how does this actually work with everything else?"
I recently sat down with Kelsey Ziser at InformationWeek to discuss the latest industry obsession: embedded hardware AI. While the industry is racing to put an AI chip in every laptop, I’m still looking for the "why." For most of us, the browser is the office. Adding hardware-level complexity shouldn't be the default unless it solves a problem that the cloud can't.
🧠 2026 is the year of the 'Chief Integration Officer.'
⚡ Hardware AI must prove its worth against browser-based LLMs.
🎓 Governance and interoperability remain the biggest hurdles.

Before the storm came in yesterday afternoon, I saw this #cloud formation, which looked really strange to me, like the entire sky had been folded.
Never seen anything quite like it. #NCwx

A grey, leaden sky is completely covered by clouds. The photo is looking up, with various bare trees visible on the bottom and lower right.
Running in an almost straight line from upper right to lower left is a line in the clouds, looking greatly like a wave coming in to the shore. The clouds to the left of the line are slightly darker than those on the right. Perhaps the warm air coming in over the cold below? This is the setup for our currently-falling frozen rain, anyway.
Found it strange.
