While I was able to help those people release the strap without damaging the watch, I’ve never come across it myself. Well, today I have one of my own.

And it was stuck fast....

Traditional networks were designed for data centers where the majority of traffic moved in a “north-south” direction. That is, it would come into the data center, travel through three or more tiers, pass through a core, and then “trombone” back out (meaning through a circuitous, latency-causing path). This made the placement of infrastructure, such as load balancers and security devices, relatively straightforward because they could all be deployed in the core....

Recent incidents – such as the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack, and a cyber attacker attempting to modify chemical levels in the drinking water supply at a water-treatment plant in Florida – have demonstrated how industrial infrastructure is vulnerable to hackers – and that attacks against these systems can have a broader impact on the general public.

A joint statement by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) said the number of entities targeted by the group has doubled since last year, and so have their ransom demands. The group continues to target individuals and organizations in the five critical sectors that the FBI highlighted in its December 2021 advisory: finance, government, healthcare, manufacturing, and information technology. The FBI and CISA urged organizations to take precautions to limit their exposure to the Cuba gang and other ransomware groups....
The federal government said the amendments would better safeguard Australians following the Optus data breach last month, which compromised various customer data including identification document details such as driver’s licence and passport numbers. The proposed regulatory changes would allow telcos in the country to temporarily share certain government identifier data, such as Medicare and passport numbers, with financial services providers. This aimed to facilitate enhanced monitoring and safeguards for customers affected by a data breach, the office of Australian Treasurer Jim Chalmers said in a statement Thursday....

At AWS’ re:Invent conference, AWS CEO Adam Selipsky outlined a mainframe migration service that aims to cut migration time by two-thirds. “Mainframes are expensive and complicated and have legacy programming,” he said. “There has to be a better way.

Some customers have gone lift-and-shift with others taking a more nuanced approach....
Also: What tech is in the CES 2023 bag of ZDNET’s Editor in Chief? Not all recycled plastics are created equal. For example, there’s excess plastic (PIR) that’s created during the manufacturing process that’s then recycled and put back into the manufacturing process, and then there’s post-consumer recycled plastics (PCR) that comes from products we’ve used and thrown away or submitted for recycling. In other words, the latter form of recycled material redirects waste that normally would have ended up in a landfill....
