In the "FedRAMP Policy for Cryptographic Module Selection and Use" (https://www.fedramp.gov/resources/documents/FedRAMP_Policy_f...), there are a ton of gems that make it clear that the FedRAMP folks are fed up with the CMVP process backlog. The most explicit is:
"FRR9: CSPs shall determine if updating to a newer version of the software, whether or not its cryptographic modules are FIPS validated, would eliminate the vulnerabilities; if it would, CSPs shall promptly update if that is feasible."
CenturyLink did use a full PPPoE stack though.
The case was 655669/2021 in the New York County Supreme Court (the Supreme Court is the name for the first-tier courts in NY state).
Docket: https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/DocumentList?docketI...
The parties were in settlement talks and postponed the hearing on an injunction and then settled and dismissed.
``` Update #3: DCS and SAR have returned to service as of 1630Z. Engineers will now work to restore ABI and expect imaging to resume by 1900Z. Image navigation may be slightly degraded for the first hour after imaging starts. The GOES-19 instruments will be restored in the following order:
ABI
GLM
SUVI
CCOR-1/EXIS/MAG/SEISS
The recovery process to return all GOES-19 instruments to normal operations is projected to take approximately 8 hours.Update #2: The GOES-19 Safehold has been resolved and engineers are working to prepare for restart of the onboard instruments. More information on the recovery timeline will be provided when known. ```
So, it's a question of "am I ok paying for this service, knowing that a portion of that money will flow to this political party and how do I feel about the results of that funding?"
Some modern CPUs have moved the TPM inside the CPU itself. But traditionally, TPMs were attached via the LPC (low pin-count) bus, and you could absolutely sniff them or de-solder them and arbitrarily MiTM.
Second, AWS's goal is clearly to make Bedrock be the place to go for all the models - they're pushing for completeness, and that includes Grok.
Would I use it? No. Am I at all surprised that AWS is adding it to Bedrock? Also no.
Pretty sure they were pointing out the absurdity of Gonzales v. Raich (545 U.S. 1)... But that really is the holding of the US Supreme Court in that case.
But since they own equity in the current company, you can give them a ton of money by buying out that equity/paying acquisition bonuses that are conditional on staying for specific amounts of time, etc. And your current staff doesn't feel left out because "it's an acquisition" the way they would if you just paid some engineers 10x or 100x what you pay them.
(However, UL will list them for the full 15A -> 1800W, and I'm sure plenty carry that. And for that matter, I suppose you can get twice that in Europe on 240v...)
Microsoft was founded in 1975. The standard for SMTP wasn't published in 1981. Most early predecessors were the late 70s.
In general? Absolutely - search 'Operation Chokepoint'.
There's a great summary in the middle of this (very long) article under that header: https://www.bitsaboutmoney.com/archive/debanking-and-debunki...
