WHERE OTHERS LOSE CONTROL – WE STAY IN THE LOOP.
At Infinito.Nexus, we believe that AI should never replace human judgment. We are the captains. AI is our navigator. While others hand over responsibility to black-box systems, we stay in control. We design the architecture, review the code, verify every deployment, and make the decisions that shape the future of the systems we build. AI is one of the most powerful tools ever created. But it remains a tool. We are the engineers, architects, and craftsmen who use it to build sovereign digital infrastructure faster, more reliably, and at a scale that was impossible only a few years ago.

Frankreichs Plan: Weg von Windows, hin zu Linux: Nicht nur reden, sondern umstellen: Frankreich ersetzt Windows durch Linux und setzt auf offen entwickelte Software und offene Standards wie Open-Interop und OpenBuro.

Amúgy azt jól veszem ki, hogy az #EU és egyes tagállamai nagyon-nagyon, de nagyon lassan ugyan, de kezdenek ráébredni arra, hogy #tech és #IT tekintetben sem a legjobb dolog külsősöktől függeni?
Értem alatta, hogy amit eddig olvasok, hogy az #osztrák hadsereg kicseréli a #Microsoft #Office csomagják nyílt forráskódúra. Ha jól emlékszem #LibreOffice lesz a választás.
Jelenleg olvasom, hogy #Franciaország is cserél #Linux operációs rendszerre.De, több forrásból is olvasni, hogy váltanak kisebb-nagyobb léptékben nyílt forrásra / saját fejlesztésre.
Sajnos, nagyon lassan, de csak eljön akkor egyszer a nyílt forráskód ideje, vagy legalábbis a saját EU-s szoftverek ideje itt a környezetemben.
Remélem, hogy még megélem, és nem a gyerekeim fognak ebből profitálni.
Én már évek óta Linuxot és nyílt alternatívákat használok, amiből csak tudok, és abszolút nem bántam meg. Sőt!
Már nagyon régóta mondom, hogy a függés a külső hatalmaktól, legyen az akár #nyugat, vagy #kelet mindig probléma. Mindig kell saját #alternatíva, amire bármikor támaszkodni lehet.
Nekem is jelenleg nem kellett más, mint egy megfelelő #sávszél, hogy a lehető legtöbb dologgal kitörjek a "fogságból".
Már azon is erősen gondolkodom, hogy az e-mailezést is saját kézbe veszem inkább és azt is saját magamnak fogom hostolni...

The Senate has confirmed Kirsten Davies as the Pentagon’s new CIO, bringing a background spanning enterprise security leadership and large-scale cyber operations.
Her remarks point to familiar challenges for security teams: aging infrastructure, skills refresh cycles, procurement friction, and accelerating adversary activity.
From an InfoSec standpoint, where do you see the biggest gap today - technology, process, or workforce?

Mexico reports dual cyber incidents:
• Alleged PRI breach exposing 1.35M voter ID images
• Sonora government halts payments after suspected cyberattack -
A researcher discovered a flaw in Tyler Technologies’ jury management systems affecting several U.S. states. Sequential juror IDs and missing rate limiting enabled brute-force access to detailed juror profiles, including demographic data and qualification responses.
Tyler has confirmed remediation but hasn’t clarified whether exploitation occurred or if individuals will be notified.

Nevada declined to pay ransom after a ransomware attack traced back to a spoofed system admin tool via SEO poisoning.
With FBI & Mandiant support, the state restored 90% of impacted data in 28 days.
No gang has claimed the attack yet; recovery costs exceed $1.5M.#CyberSecurity #Ransomware #InfoSec #IncidentResponse #Malware #DigitalResilience #PublicSectorIT #DataSecurity

🚨 🤦🏻♂️ Microsoft SharePoint just became the latest frontline in a global cyber incident. A zero-day exploit hit federal and state agencies, universities, and energy firms, with some victims losing access and data entirely. Microsoft is scrambling to release a patch, but attackers may have already stolen cryptographic keys to maintain access.
This wasn’t a cloud issue, it hit on-prem SharePoint servers, lots of which are still unpatched. Another example of what happens with slow vendor response time and a resource-strained public sector.
TL;DR
⚠️ SharePoint zero-day exploited
🔓 Cryptographic keys harvested
🏛️ U.S., EU, and Asia targets hit
🐌 Patch lag left systems exposedhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/07/20/microsoft-sharepoint-hack/

🧯 What Could Go Wrong? DOGE to Rapidly Rewrite SSA's COBOL Codebase
DOGE, a Musk-aligned “efficiency” department, plans to migrate the Social Security Administration’s COBOL-based systems to modern code like Java — in just a few months.
💬 Experts are raising serious alarms:
🔹 SSA systems serve 65M+ Americans and haven’t been overhauled since the 1980s.
🔹 COBOL is deeply embedded in core logic: SSNs, benefit payments, entitlements.
🔹 A proper migration should take years, not months.
🔹 The team pushing this effort reportedly includes inexperienced engineers who can’t read COBOL or navigate legacy mainframe architecture.
🔹 DOGE may use generative AI for code translation — without fully grasping edge cases or dependencies.SSA insiders describe the environment as a “house of cards” — where even minor changes can break everything.
⚠️ Tech modernization must be grounded in humility, expertise, and realism — not political theater and wishful thinking.

⚠️ DOGE’s Rushed Plan to Rebuild SSA Systems Will Be a Disaster - FFS 🤦🏻♂️
WIRED reports that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is pushing to rewrite the Social Security Administration’s COBOL-based systems in a matter of months — a job that experts agree should take years.
🧠 What’s at stake:
🔹 SSA supports 65+ million Americans — stability is non-negotiable.
🔹 COBOL runs the core logic for Social Security numbers, payments, and entitlements.
🔹 Even small changes could lead to silent system failures or missed benefits.
🔹 DOGE’s team — reportedly made up of young, inexperienced hires — lacks the skill to read COBOL or grasp mainframe architecture.
🔹 Without understanding the legacy code, there’s no safe path to rewriting it.This is not just a tech migration — it’s a potential house-of-cards collapse. Critical national infrastructure cannot be rewritten with duct tape and hubris. 🧯
