Topic: general conversation
During December’s meetup no presentation was prepared. Instead the group discussed anything and everything on their “Linux-minds” at the time. The big hack of SolarWinds was a topic of course. The security breach impacted a lot of companies worldwide and some participants of the meeting had to do overtime because of the hack. The most interesting aspect was the longevity of the intrusion. The hackers had access to SolarWind’s systems since March of 2020 and were only caught late in the year.
There were some general questions asked by the participants and together as a group we tried to answer them as good as possible or to the best of knowledge available.
The meeting was finalized around 8:30pm.
The next meeting will happen on January 28, 2021 and be posted on ELUG.ca and on groups.io.
