  2. We often talk about being diligent about backups. At a minimum, an external hard drive and Time Machine are much better than no backups. But a more robust option is the 3-2-1 backup strategy. We explain what that is and how you do it. #backup #datasafety #timemachine #arq #devonthink devontechnologies.com/blog/202

  3. RT @jun_song: Hier ist der Grund, warum wir @huggingface davor schützen müssen, gesperrt zu werden: Viele Leute denken, wir könnten einfach Modelle mit BitTorrent auf PirateBay herunterladen und damit fertig sein. Aber HF ist nicht nur ein Repository für Gewichte – es spielt eine massive Rolle bei der Erkennung von Malware in Modellen durch Safetensor-Inspektionen. Dies bewahrt uns vor Modellen, die mit Malware durchsetzt sind, und das Einbetten versteckter bösartiger Codes in Gewichte oder Prompt-Vorlagen ist weitaus einfacher, als die meisten denken. Wir hatten am Anfang dieses Jahres auf clawhub eine ganze Reihe genau solcher Probleme.

  4. Most people think their phone data is safe until it’s too late. I just published a guide on common scenarios where you might lose your data and how to prevent it.

  5. The 3-2-1 backup rule for research data:

    3️⃣ Keep 3 copies of your data
    2️⃣ Store them on 2 different media types
    1️⃣ Keep 1 copy off-site

    Hard drives fail. Laptops get stolen. Cloud services go down. Your data is worth more than your equipment. Take care of it and spend some thoughts how to manage it.

  6. This is, why I hate it when I am forced to "share" the keys to my castles via the cloud of password-managers like 1Password. Most local (WiFi) sync suck, or simply are dysfunctional (yes, 1Password, looking at you!). You have to trust them to encrypt the vaults adequately, which in three cases has ben shown not to be safe at all. ethz.ch/de/news-und-veranstalt #1password #enpass #Bitwarden #lastpass #dashlane #itsecurity #datasafety #passwordmanager #unsafe

  7. Your voice gives away valuable personal information, so how do you keep that data safe? With speech technologies becoming increasingly common, researchers want to make sure we don’t give away mor...

  8. Backups are only useful when they can be restored.

    Run BorgBackup weekly: compress, encrypt, check, restore a sample file.

    Automate, test, and keep the archive alive. #backup #datasafety #cyberresilience #borgbackup #sysadmin

  11. 🏠 Homelab Backup Evolution! 🏠

    Following the "3-2-1 is the minimum" rule, I've expanded my VPS container backup strategy:

    ✅ Hetzner Cloud (Borg) → Offsite long-term storage
    ✅ Synology NAS (rsync) → Local fast recovery

    The new setup does nightly automated syncs of all /opt/containers/ data to my Synology - with deduplication and all the bells and whistles! 📦

    Particularly clever: hardlinks for space-efficient snapshots and morning email reports. Now I know right with my coffee ☕ whether all backups ran cleanly.

    Lesson learned: Cloud-only is good, but having a local NAS mirror for quick restores is pure gold! 💪

    How do you solve this in your setups? Also multi-tier or everything to cloud?

  13. Australia's strict data retention laws mean we have many honeypots for hackers. After years of hack after hack, with a raft of highly sensitive data exposed, this is what the govt do—Ban under 16s from social media, which is another way of mandating people share their ID with social media companies.

    The eSafety Commissioner doesn't seem particularly concerned with data safety. Commissioner of Moral Panics might be more accurate.

  14. KoboToolbox was piloted in Uganda in 2005 as a digital alternative to pen and paper in crisis zones. Today, over 15,000 NGOs use this platform to collect & manage data—helping track projects & create real impact on communities worldwide.

  15. If TikTok is a threat to the American people because it collects data, what is Equifax when it blasts the American people’s data out in a data breach?

    At least the Chinese intelligence agencies have the good sense to secure their ill gotten data against randoms using it.
