Given how notorious the Chinese government is in forcing local companies to add spyware to their products or store encrypted data for future decryption when quantum computers will become more feasible (e.g. Huawei), how secure do you think their Terramaster NAS products are? Is it worth the cost or is it best to just steer clear of these?

There’s an old joke in infosec about wanting firewalls made by every different nation. You want a Cisco device, that has back doors for the Americans, a Huawei device that has Chinese back doors, and a Juniper device with Israeli back doors. Put them all together and you should be good

Juniper is Israeli? I didn't know that

[-] Daniel15@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Silicom is Israeli too, as was Mellanox before the Nvidia acquisition.

Now that you mention it, it's Checkpoint. I got them mixed up. Corrected

No no no, that's not good enough. You also need a Palo alto because all the cool kids are running it and a pf sense for good luck

Don't forget an EDR solution because the execs are too embaressed to ask what it means so they buy it to save their egos

[-] rimantass@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

EDR, XDR throw money at all the acronyms :D

Something AI powered too for good measure, I presume. Ahem. “AI”.

I'm not too proud to admit I don't even know what that is. Someone take my IT credentials away

[-] TehBIGrat@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wireless Access Point. Maybe it's used more in a networking environment. But Cardi B stole this acronym.

[-] Tom0laSFW@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hey I actually did know that I just forgot lol

[-] chipredacted@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Doesn’t everyone just google it to remember anyways?

[-] rimantass@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That's the problem with so many acronyms in networking
