That’s a common indication that the CMOS battery is dead.
If you open up the system and look around the motherboard, there should be a coin cell battery in a holder somewhere on the board. That battery keeps the BIOS powered and prevents it from losing it settings when the system is powered off. Test and replace that battery if it’s dead.
Not really. IP addresses are really easy to change. And doubtless the threat actors will see that their IPs have been identified and will roll them over soon. The solution is to go after the tactics the attackers are using:
The attack chains exploit known security vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, such as weak credentials, to obtain an initial foothold and execute arbitrary code on susceptible instances.
EDIT: for Oracle Web Logic, you do a lot worse that going through the DoD STIG for it.
Been using the beta for a while and I gotta say, it’s pretty awesome. I just hope they have the purchasing as sorted as they claim. I’ve had so many issues in the past letting my kids purchase games.
Ya, about that “AI-driven endpoint security”, it does a fantastic job of generating false positives and low value alerts. I swear, I’m to the point where vendors start talking about the “AI driven security” in their products and I mentally check out. It’s almost universally crap. I’m sure it will be useful someday, but goddamn I’m tired of running down alerts which come with almost zero supporting evidence, pointing to “something happened, maybe.” AI for helping write queries in security tools? Ya, good stuff. But, until models do a better job explaining themselves and not going off on flights of fancy, they’ll do more to increase alert fatigue than security.
