Open Source und die Update-Resistenz | OSB – Open Source Business Alliance

Die Grünen erklärten beispielsweise, dass es sei nur ein unwichtiger Server mit altem Wahlkampfmaterial betroffen. Das zeigt offenkundige Unwissenheit darüber, wie solche Angriffe ablaufen. Und eine sträflich nachlässige Haltung gegenüber der IT-Sicherheit. Organisationen und Privatleute verwenden Nextcloud und Owncloud, weil sie den Public-Cloud-Speicherangeboten misstrauen, Datenverluste oder ein Ausschnüffeln ihrer Privatsphäre befürchten. Daraus sollte eigentlich selbstverständlich folgen, dass Anwender auch Maßnahmen treffen, um solche Angriffe auf ihre eigenen Cloud-Speicher zu verhindern. Updates sind dafür unverzichtbar. Allerdings sind da nicht nur die Anwender in der Pflicht.

Parteien, Ministerien und Uno ließen Daten ungeschützt im Netz - SPIEGEL ONLINE

Wenn Verwahrlosung eine IT Strategie ist.

Zusammengefasst: AfD, Grüne und die Uno nutzen völlig veraltete Cloud-Server zum Speichern bestimmter Daten. Warnungen durch das Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI) haben sie bislang ignoriert und die Sicherheitslücken immer noch nicht geschlossen.

Das Notfallteam Cert des BSI wurde von Nextcloud selbst auf die Sicherheitslücken aufmerksam gemacht und verschickte daraufhin seit Ende Januar Sicherheitswarnungen.

Report from Nextcloud hackathon in Thessaloniki-Greece, Feb 12 | iBlog Efstathios Iosifidis

Progress on #Greek translations for #Nextcloud

We joined about 6 people (Alexandros, Salih, Argiris, Helen, Dimitris and Me) and had a small one on one session on how to use transifex (session meaning 1 minute only and if the translator had a question how to use, just ask the more expirienced).
Translators who used is transifex for the first time, had only the untranslated strings. More expirienced translators reviewed strings one by one for specific files. The result was that we finished about 3 big and core files for the server and about 300 untranslated strings.
We have 1250 untranslated strings left. We plan to organize another meetup either in Thessaoniki or Athens to translate the rest of the strings.

Kudos to Greece ❤

The Licensing and Compliance Lab interviews Björn Schießle of Nextcloud — Free Software Foundation — working together for free software

More than 30 years ago Richard Stallman founded the GNU Project to enable people to continue to use their computers without giving up their freedom. Today, Nextcloud tries to do the same, we want to enable people to continue to sync and share their data without losing their freedom and privacy. Providing such a solution based on free software is a challenging but also extremely motivating task.

Join our Hackathon January 23-27! – Nextcloud

This year, we had dozens of face to face events with monthly meetups, a very successful first conference and of course a handful of hackathons in Stuttgart. We plan to continue these great traditions in 2017, kicking it off with a Hackathon from January 23 to 27.

Cloud Federation – Getting Social

Frank Karlitschek_ » 6 months of Nextcloud

Last Friday was the 6 month anniversary of Nextcloud, a good opportunity to look back and reflect on what we have achieved since we started. I also have some interesting news to share, including that Nextcloud GmbH is a profitable company already!

Welcoming new team members – #Nextcloud

Andreas has been leading sales teams at large organizations including EMC, Oracle and Google.

We migrated to Nextcloud 10.0.1 – Tech and Me

As the headline says, we migrated to Nextcloud today, mostly because of the above reasons and that we felt that the time was right. Nextcloud has matured very much in just a few months.
There are bugs in the ownCloud tracker that are several years old, and suggestions of enhancements that never happen, it just feels like it kind of died when Nextcloud arrived.

Hands on with the Nextcloud Box | Jason Bayton

Another review of the #Nextcloud Box

The Nextcloud Box is a big step forward for the IoT (Internet of Things) arena and I’m really impressed with the first iteration of what I anticipate to be a very popular product.
Nextcloud are all about empowering people to take back their data. With the Nextcloud Box being simple to build, simple to setup and most importantly, simple to use, they’re taking this vision to the next level.

Rhino Security Labs: Attention Required! | CloudFlare

For a recent engagement, Rhino Security Lab’s was recruited to assess an internal network whose predominant operating system was Windows. After running tertiary scans and audits, nothing seemed to jump out at us besides an open OwnCloud webserver.

There is a #Nextcloud workshop in #Tirana / #Albania this weekend. E.g. our design lead Jan will attend as well, so why wouldn't you? :)
