Most of the SSLVPN software still doesn't work. Cisco AnyConnect SSL, JunOS Pulse, Dell Mobile Connect.
There are problems with the functions key on certain units.
Windows 10 is as about as usable as Windows 8 at the beginning. A test period should include support for critical applications such as VPN software.
I am probably one of the most awkward individuals in HR interview settings. I aimed for a job that I knew I could get, and I excelled at that job which allowed me to move on to better roles.
How are your other skills? Process Management, Configuration Management
You must emphasize all skills in addition to programming. I would say 30% of my time is dealing with QA aspects.
I am sorry but you are incorrect. A5/1 and A5/3 are for the Authentication and Not ciphering/encryption. A5 authentication and encryption have to be configured seperately in mobiles.
Does anyone have a link to the Chaos Computer Club presentation?
A5/1 and A5/3 are Authentication Algorithms and not ENCRYPTION/Decryption. The Ciphering Encryption Algorithm for GSM/GPRS is either gea1, gea2 and gea3.
In the United States, a certain 3 letter network operator specifically forces the newer authentication algorithms to be disabled
I must respectfully disagree with a number of your points.
possession of kiddie porn is just another thought crime and prosecuting it is complete hypocrisy.
The act of possession means it is no longer a thought crime. It is a crime in the United States to even view an image of Child Pornography.
The politicians like it because it is 1000x easier to prosecute someone for having a copy of kiddie porn than it is to catch and prosecute the people manufacturing it.
There are ways to catch the manufacturer, but what other freedoms will be lost in the balance. Shall we have to provide ID to buy a Camera?
A couple of points need to be clarified in your comment.
HSPA is still referred to as 3G. Specifically, it refers to the R6 version of the 3GPP standards.
HSPA+ is a technology being rolled out now (I believe Bell Mobility in Canada). There are devices that will be commercial very shortly that support 21Mbps in the forward link (down link).
AT&T has made the specific decision to not migrate to HSPA+ (R7) and will not offer more than 7.2 Mbps
1. In GSM/UMTS, The encryption keys are stored on the SIM/USIM and never transmitted over the air. There are two parameters passed to the MS/UE which calculates and returns a value to the network. If the two values don't match, the authentication process fails.
2.) Again, There is the issue of knowing the keys. The IMSI/TMSI/PTMSI is not enough information to successfully intercept a call. I can setup an entirely fake network for Mobile to Mobile calls, and if both mobiles are on my network, I can turn off authentication and ciphering and have complete access to the call.
3.) Private Keys are stored on the SIM/USIM
Don't get me wrong, A number of security issues still remain with Wireless Networks, but they do have a few security measures.
I am going to speak in regards to GSM and UMTS networks as I know the protocol
There are security messages in Wireless Networks. There is Authentication and Ciphering in GSM/GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/HSPA/HSPA+. In addition, there is integrity protection of signalling messages in WCDMA/HSPA,HSPA+ networks. There are a few messages which can not be ciphered/integrity protected for obvious reasons such as the initial Location Update Request/Attach Request. Yes, certain authentication algorithms have been compromised GSM A5/2. It has been superceeded by A5/3.
It is true that malware has made it onto cellular devices (Blackberry in UAE and Symbian come to mind). It is almost impossible for someone to remotely access the phone without such software existing on the device for voice frames.
Yes, the redirecting of packets/frames is a legal requirement in many jurisdictions. It usually has to be accompanied with a warrant from a relevant law enforcement agency otherwise the specific phone company employee faces criminal charges. The usual redirection is done in the MSC or SGSN and I have never seen a case where it was done at the basestation.
The network providers actually contain visible disclaimers about the total speed.
There is extensive documentation available concerning additional accessories to the devices. If I recall correctly, some of these devices are even shipped with the Y Cable.

Thanks. For once, I have submitted comments on an issue. I doubt they will have any effect, but at least I went on record.
It would be nice to have some arguments. I am definitely not in favor of export restrictions again.
It has been the most useful smartphone that I remember.
Useful advice on/., Now I have seen everything!
I work for a company that mainly deals in purchase orders. I even have to go through purchasing to use the company credit card.
aybe these people are desperate for support but have no way to pay for it?
What are the good alternatives to GoDaddy?
register.com ? I have about 20 domains I need to transfer
It is actually required to be integrated for all devices for certain carriers (this includes Data Cards).
It leaves results in your shorts.
I'd weigh 600 pounds.
Isn't that the minimum weight limit for posting on /. anyway?
Has anyone found the difference between accounts and mailboxes?
To me, they appear to be the exact same. Why duplicate the same information?
rather wish I had not.

That will cause violent and unstoppable retching from all bodily orifices
Apple uses lube where MS doesn't.
There are things I do in my car that people may or may not want to see.
WGA is like a body cavity search, but without the rubber glove
