  • It has been a few years, but I was once asked to implement 800-171. The document was aggressively vague and really the sort of thing that requires hiring a consultant to setup and probably at least one FTE to maintain. Thankfully our project was abandoned before I had to start looking for other employment just get away from the damn thing.

    So I emphasize with Georgia Tech for not perfectly implementing the rules to the governments confusing standards.

    However, the researchers refusal to run anti-virus even when required by the contract was just stupid. “Academic freedom” doesn’t mean anything when your grants are revoked or you get sued for millions over a breach. That said, they should have been able to work out some sort of “compensating control” to use instead of anti-virus and get that approved by the government.

    My indirect experience with python is that it is slow as hell. Anytime I install an app that includes python it lags 15-30 minutes on that step. Anytime I’m asked to install something with conda it takes 30 minutes to an hour.

    I’m sure that is just due to environmental and implementation issues, but the Java fans say the same thing…











  • The problem is, in order to view the cameras in their app, the video has to relay through their cloud servers, and they had little to no security. Since then they have added encryption which hopefully helps.

    Best practice is to avoid placing any cameras, especially big box store cloud cameras, anywhere sensitive. The two cameras I have online right now are outside where hackers won’t see anything my neighbors can’t see.
