    Do you consider cloud storage like Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, etc a backup solution.

    I lost a file on that site and never used it since. It just disappeared out of the blue.

    Suspected (DNS) exploit kit on ASUS RT-N66U

    Try using dns advantage with ipv6 disabled. You might have to reset your router. It's the most secure dns server that I know of. You can go to grc.com/dns to see if the dns server is secure. 156.154.70.1 156.154.71.1...

    Most SSL VPNs are Wildly Insecure

    Well according to them it's possible with cluster computers or using amazon cloud. To be fair it's not fully cracked it's getting closer, what they don't mention is how close.

    DNS spoof attack with strongvpn

    At first it was my ISP dns they exploited. Then I started using opendns and eventually google dns. I had problem there and then I eventually found dns advantage and the problems stopped so i tried going back and see if it was a fluke and it wasn't. It's all by trial and error for many months...

    Most SSL VPNs are Wildly Insecure

    DNS spoof attack with strongvpn

    From what I know it applies to vpn or un encrypted connection. I used to use google dns and the hacker used to play games with me. He would direct the traffic to his fake web site and do crazy things. I learned as I experienced stuff and he kept on following me. On my router I use dns...

    DNS spoof attack with strongvpn

    The dns server should reject external ping. Everything else is ok. I told my ISP many years and they claimed their dns server are secure. However a few years after I scanned with grc and they fixed the issues. I am not a security expert however just by observing that was the case. Someone...
