Foundations of Amateur Radio Just over a year ago, the ARRL, the American Radio Relay League, the peak body for amateur radio in the United States and one of the oldest of such organisations, experienced an incident. During the weeks following, the ARRL was tight-lipped about the extent of the incident and most amateurs only really noticed that services were off-line or slow to respond. After months of delay and disinformation, the ARRL finally revealed that it was the subject of a ransomware attack and that it had paid a million dollar ransom. It went on to blame the authorities for its silence. Mind you, it didn't tell me personally, it made public statements on its website. Similarly when I specifically contacted the ARRL to discover what information of mine it held, and what the status of that information was, the ARRL responded that I should refer to its public statements. It continued to state that my information was not compromised, since it only lived in LoTW, the Logbook of The World, the system it uses to coordinate the verification of amateur radio contacts, which are used to distribute awards like the DXCC and Worked All whatever. Imagine my surprise when I received an email this week, sent from "memberlist@arrl.org" to my non-amateur radio email address. I confirmed with several amateurs that they too received this email. Informative, to a point, but likely well beyond anything intended by its author, it stated that LoTW was being updated with associated down time, incidentally, inexplicably, coinciding with the 2025 ARRL Field day, and it "will be fully migrated to the cloud". It went on to solicit donations. It made no reference whatsoever to the ransomware attack. There's a lot hidden in that email. Although the attack last year was linked to the outage associated with LoTW, the ARRL has continued to claim that the LoTW data was not impacted by the ransomware attack, but the email reveals that the system is being migrated to the cloud, in other words, right now, it's not in the cloud. Which begs the question, where is the server infrastructure for LoTW today, and more importantly, where was it a year ago when its systems were compromised? From a public post by Dave AA6YQ, dated the 2nd of February 2021, in response to a message about a January LoTW committee meeting, we know that the LoTW server "now employs the current version of an SAP database engine". A month before that, Dave wrote another informative email that indicated that 105 thousand callsigns submitted logs to LoTW in the last 1,826 days or the five years between 2016 and 2021. There were logs from 21 thousand callsigns in the week prior to that January post. In all, according to Dave, there were 153,246 callsigns who submitted contacts to LoTW. The LoTW committee meeting minutes are no longer available from the ARRL website, but I have a copy. The document states that there were 1.2 billion contacts entered into LoTW, big number right? The next line tells us that this resulted in 262 million QSO records. I wonder what happened to the other billion records? This activity was generated by 139 thousand users using 200 thousand certificates. For context, every VK callsign automatically comes with an AX callsign, but LoTW requires that you separately register each with its own certificate. As someone who has been playing with databases since the 1980's I can tell you that LoTW is a tiny database. For comparison, the WSPR database is an order of magnitude larger, not to mention, more active. I have no insight into the business rules within the LoTW database, but the fact that updates are being processed in batches and that it regularly has delays indicates a level of complexity that I cannot account for. As an aside, the LoTW committee document lists 10 members. Dave is not one of those listed. It makes me wonder who else has access to this database. Note that I have no reason to believe that Dave's information is questionable, nor that he has access that he shouldn't, he was after all a member of the LoTW committee from 2013 until 2017 when the ARRL removed all development resources from the LoTW. I'm asking who else has access and why? While we're here, who has been doing maintenance and updates on this system over the past seven years? Moving on. The database for LoTW contains information from amateurs all over the planet, including those in Europe where the GDPR, the General Data Protection Regulation, enacted in 2016, is extremely strict on the security and disclosure of personal data with very heavy penalties for breaches. The GDPR requires notifications be sent within 72 hours of a breach, and that an organisation must designate a data protection officer. I wonder who has that role at the ARRL and I wonder if they told anyone? Did any European amateurs receive personal notification from the ARRL about their data, I know I didn't. My first activation of LoTW was in 2013, now twelve years ago. I received certificate expiry messages in 2016 and 2019. Since then there have been no such messages. That's unsurprising, since I stopped using LoTW once I discovered just how broken it was. Don't get me started on portable and QRP variants of my callsign. My care factor is low as to when I last actually used it, since attempting to dig up that information would take considerable effort, but I can guarantee that it was before 28 October 2019, when the last certificate expired. You might come to this point and ask yourself why am I digging into this at all? Let me ask you some questions in addition to those I've already mentioned. SAP, the database system which apparently runs LoTW, had 254 CVEs, or Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures listed, in 2020 alone. It continues to have exploits. When was SAP updated and is it up to date today? Is it credible that LoTW wasn't compromised during the ransomware attack? Does the ARRL know this for sure, or did it just not detect the compromise? We know that LoTW was down during the incident and according to the UptimeRobot service showed outages on the 14th of May 2024 but we still don't know exactly when this attack started. As you might know, the ARRL is also the headquarters for the IARU International Secretariat, the administration body for the global representation of our hobby. It presumably shares infrastructure with the ARRL, but at no point in the past year have we been advised of the impact of this breach to the IARU. What information is stored in LoTW and why has the ARRL continued to ignore requests for disclosing the specific information it holds on the users of that system? I know for sure that it knows my callsigns and my email address. I also know for sure that it required identity documents to prove my identity and right to use those callsigns. I have been told in writing that LoTW never deletes anything, so what does it store and can I delete all my records and if-so, how? Why did I receive an update about the upgrade for LoTW when I'm clearly not an active user of the system? The memberlist@arrl.org is used for all manner of services, including the propagation updates, and the three other ARRL bulletins. In other words, this address is used for a myriad of messaging. Is this information stored in a database and if so, where is this database? Was it compromised? What information is stored in that database? Are my details in that database, are yours? While discussing this LoTW update email with other amateurs, I was informed by one amateur that even after they stopped being a member of the ARRL, as a direct result of the ransomware attack and the discontinuation of the delivery of QST magazine they paid for, the ARRL continued to send regular email updates as-if they were still a current member. Where is that data stored and how are the ARRL not considered a source of SPAM? While we're exploring the blurred lines between being a member of the ARRL and not, why did it send the update about the incident via email to its members on 21 August 2024 and update the website a day later, and why did it not send that same email to me and every other amateur directly? Why does the ARRL continue to ignore its obligations in relation to the personal information it clearly and demonstrably holds? The GDPR has been a fact of life since 2016. It's not optional if you store data for European citizens, but the ARRL doesn't even mention it on their privacy policy page. Did European users receive specific notification about the breach, now a year ago, which clearly the ARRL had both the capacity and obligation to? Has the GDPR been invoked by European amateurs? Should it? You could attempt to explain all this as incompetence or mismanagement. That's a response, but it doesn't pass the sniff test. For example, implementing SAP is a non-trivial process. I have over 40 years professional experience in the ICT field and I'm not sure I would stick up my hand to have a go at doing this. Mind you, if I did, there's no way I'd choose SAP, I'd find an open source solution, but that's just me, not to mention that SAP license costs are significant, this in an organisation asking users for donations. The thing is, we're talking about a system that's now at least 22 years old, running in an organisation that's been around for over a century, an organisation that deals in regulation and legalese at the very foundation of its existence. In other words, there's a massive amount of legal and technical skill and history available within the organisation, but we're still seeing this level of at best questionable, at worst illegal behaviour. I'm not a member of the ARRL and nothing I've seen to date makes me want to give them any of my money. If you are, perhaps you should be asking some questions. If you're a citizen of Europe, perhaps you should start asking some questions about your data. If you pay money to your own peak body, then you should ask it to find out what happend at the IARU International Secretariat during the attack. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

In this episode, Peter breaks down a major announcement from Iagon, a decentralised cloud storage provider building on Cardano, which has seen its IAG token spike in price following news of a collaboration with CloudCourt and advisory support from the Ford Motor Company. The partnership explores a proof of concept aimed at storing sensitive legal data using decentralised infrastructure—a key use case for compliance-heavy industries.The solution being tested combines off-chain encrypted data storage with on-chain access control and audit trails, helping meet stringent data protection regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR. This hybrid design ensures data sovereignty (e.g. storing data within national borders), robust security, and long-term cost savings compared to traditional centralised solutions. The concept is particularly relevant for law firms and large corporates that need to manage vast volumes of confidential legal documents like depositions and trial transcripts.Peter explains that Ford's involvement—while in an advisory capacity—brings valuable enterprise-level perspective, especially given its extensive legal operations. This project not only validates Iagon's use of blockchain for regulated environments, but also marks a significant milestone for Cardano in attracting Fortune 50-level interest.To top it off, there's a teaser: a second Fortune 50 company may also be involved in the near future. Speculation points towards the healthcare sector, given the solution's alignment with HIPAA compliance needs.Overall, this collaboration signals the growing maturity of Cardano's enterprise utility, showcasing how decentralised storage and blockchain can be practically applied in sensitive, high-compliance sectors.

Una recente decisione di una corte americana obbliga OpenAI a conservare tutte le conversazioni degli utenti (inclusi utenti europei e non registrati), come parte della causa avviata dal New York Times sul tema del diritto d'autore e dei contenuti utilizzati per addestrare l'IA.La richiesta del giudice pone importanti interrogativi sulla compatibilità di una simile conservazione di dati con il Regolamento europeo sulla privacy (GDPR). Questa situazione ha sollevato molte domande: l'obbligo del giudice statunitense potrebbe entrare in conflitto con il diritto degli utenti europei a chiedere la cancellazione dei propri dati? È proporzionata una raccolta indiscriminata di conversazioni per finalità processuali? Ed è legittimo per una corte americana imporre tali obblighi su utenti globali?Ne parliamo con Guido Scorza analizzando quali potrebbero essere le reali implicazioni per la privacy e la normativa europea, valutando gli aspetti legali e tentando di chiarire i punti di potenziale criticità.Un giudice americano può realmente influenzare la privacy digitale degli utenti europei?~~~~~ INGAGGI E SPONSORSHIP ~~~~~ Per contatti commerciali: sales@matteoflora.comPer consulenze legali: info@42LawFirm.it~~~~~ SOSTIENI IL CANALE! ~~~~~Con la Membership PRO puoi supportare il Canale » https://link.mgpf.it/proSe vuoi qui la mia attrezzatura » https://mgpf.it/attrezzatura~~~~~ SEGUIMI ANCHE ONLINE CON LE NOTIFICHE! ~~~~~» CANALE WHATSAPP » https://link.mgpf.it/wa» CANALE TELEGRAM » https://mgpf.it/tg» CORSO (Gratis) IN FUTURO » https://mgpf.it/nl» NEWSLETTER » https://mgpf.it/nl~~~~~ CIAO INTERNET E MATTEO FLORA ~~~~~ Questo è “Ciao Internet!” la prima e più seguita trasmissione di TECH POLICY in lingua italiana, online su YouTube e in Podcast.Io sono MATTEO FLORA e sono:» Professore in Fondamenti di Sicurezza delle AI e delle SuperIntelligenze (ESE)» Professore ac in Corporate Reputation e Crisis Management (Pavia).Sono un Imprenditore Seriale del digitale e ho fondato:» The Fool » https://thefool.it - La società italiana leader di Customer Insight» The Magician » https://themagician.agency - Atelier di Advocacy e Gestione della Crisi» 42 Law Firm » https://42lf.it - Lo Studio Legale per la Trasformazione Digitale » ...e tante altre qui: https://matteoflora.com/#aziendeSono Future Leader (IVLP) del Dipartimento di Stato USA sotto Amministrazione Obama nel programma “Combating Cybercrime (2012)”.Sono Presidente di PermessoNegato, l'associazione italiana che si occupa di Pornografia Non- Consensuale e Revenge Porn.Conduco in TV “Intelligenze Artificiali” su Mediaset/TgCom.

Consent, Compliance, and Conversational AI: Marketing's New RealityIn this episode, Nitin Seth, CEO of SMS Magic & Conversive, reveals how strict privacy regulations like GDPR and TCPA are forcing marketers to completely rebuild their customer engagement infrastructure around sophisticated consent management and AI-powered channel orchestration.  Most provocatively, Nitin argues that traditional mass-market branding is dead—replaced by direct customer experience and real-time engagement that requires marketers to master database marketing, social media management, and AI-driven personalization to survive in this privacy-first future.About Nitin Seth: Nitin Seth is the CEO & Co-Founder of SMS Magic & Conversive.  5 Key Takeaways for Marketers: 1.

In deze diepgaande aflevering van Techzine Talks duiken Coen en Erik in de complexe wereld van sovereign cloud oplossingen. Ze ontleden hoe Microsoft, Google Cloud en AWS vergelijkbare beloftes doen over datasoevereiniteit en onderzoeken de cruciale vraag: kan Europa wel zonder deze Amerikaanse hyperscalers? De podcast biedt een kritische analyse van datacenters, encryptie-oplossingen, key-management, confidential computing, Europese partners en personeel, maar ook de praktische en financiële uitdagingen van een echt Europees cloud-alternatief.Aanleiding voor deze discussie was een Microsoft AI-event waar CEO Satya Nadella sprak over sovereign cloud, wat Coen inspireerde om dit maar eens te duiden in een Techzine Talks aflevering. Terwijl steeds meer Europese organisaties en overheden zorgen uiten over datasoevereiniteit, investeren Amerikaanse cloudgiganten miljarden in Europese datacenters en sovereign cloudoplossingen.Hoofdstukken:00:00 Introductie en aanleiding voor het onderwerp 02:15 Wat is sovereign cloud en waarom is het zo belangrijk geworden?04:20 De Amerikaanse Cloud Act en de implicaties voor Europese data07:30 Key-management en encryptie als beschermingslaag 10:15 Confidential computing uitgelegd 12:40 Disconnected en air-gapped oplossingen voor kritieke omgevingen15:30 Microsoft 365 Local en de beperkingen met Copilot 18:45 De AI-paradox: innovatie versus soevereiniteit 19:20 Transparantie en groeiende Europese zorgen (ICC-case) 23:45 Waarom een volledig Europees alternatief praktisch onhaalbaar is28:15 De enorme investeringen van hyperscalers in Europa 31:50 Is het realistisch om zonder Amerikaanse cloudtechnologie te opereren? 34:00 Conclusie en praktisch toekomstperspectiefDe podcast belicht hoe sovereign cloud oplossingen worden aangeboden door de grote Amerikaanse cloudproviders, maar legt ook bloot waarom een volledig Europees alternatief praktisch en financieel onhaalbaar lijkt. Coen en Erik bespreken de mogelijkheden van key management door Europese partijen, air-gapped oplossingen, en hoe organisaties toch veilig gebruik kunnen maken van Amerikaanse cloudtechnologie zonder hun soevereiniteit volledig op te geven.Een must-listen voor IT-beslissers, beleidsmakers en iedereen die betrokken is bij strategische cloudkeuzes in een steeds complexer geopolitiek landschap.#SovereignCloud #CloudComputing #Microsoft #AWS #GoogleCloud #DataSoevereiniteit #GDPR #CloudAct #Encryptie #AirGapped #TechzineTalks #Cybersecurity #CloudSecurity #EuropeseCloud #Hyperscalers #ConfidentialComputing #ITInfrastructuur #DataPrivacy #TechPodcast #Datacenter #CloudStrategy #DigitaleSoevereiniteit #Microsoft365Local #Copilot #GeneratieveAI #CloudRegulering #GAIA-X #EUCloudInitiative #DataResidentie #KeyManagementAbonneer je op Techzine Talks via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube of je favoriete podcast-app voor meer diepgaande analyses van enterprise technologie en blijf op de hoogte van de nieuwste ontwikkelingen in de IT-wereld.Bezoek www.techzine.nl voor meer artikelen, analyses en achtergronden over dit en andere enterprise IT-onderwerpen.

Selamat datang di episode di mana kita membongkar aturan permainan pemasaran dan hubungan masyarakat di era digital. Pernahkah Anda merasa bahwa strategi pemasaran tradisional—iklan massal yang menginterupsi dan rilis pers yang hanya ditujukan untuk media—tidak lagi efektif? Anda tidak sendirian. Lanskap telah berubah secara fundamental, beralih dari monolog korporat ke dialog komunitas. Dalam episode ini, kita akan menjelajahi "Aturan Baru Pemasaran & PR," sebuah paradigma yang diperkenalkan oleh David Meerman Scott, yang menggeser fokus dari interupsi satu arah ke komunikasi langsung, konten yang berharga, dan keaslian yang mutlak. Kita akan membahas mengapa "membeli" perhatian melalui iklan mahal atau "memohon" liputan media kini menjadi usang di dunia di mana Anda dapat menjangkau audiens Anda secara langsung.       Inti dari revolusi ini adalah dua pergeseran fundamental: dari produk ke persona, dan dari iklan ke penerbitan. Kami akan menguraikan mengapa langkah paling krusial dalam setiap strategi modern adalah pengembangan "persona pembeli"—memahami audiens Anda secara mendalam, termasuk tujuan, tantangan, dan motivasi mereka. Setelah Anda benar-benar mengenal audiens Anda, prinsip selanjutnya adalah "Anda adalah apa yang Anda publikasikan." Kami akan membahas bagaimana organisasi yang sukses saat ini berpikir seperti perusahaan media, menciptakan konten yang berharga seperti blog, video, dan e-book yang mendidik dan menginformasikan, bukan hanya menjual. Dari membangun komunitas yang otentik di media sosial hingga memanfaatkan kekuatan video bentuk pendek di platform seperti TikTok, kami akan menunjukkan bagaimana prinsip-prinsip ini diterapkan dalam praktik.           Bergabunglah dengan kami saat kami menganalisis bagaimana fondasi ini tetap relevan di tengah gelombang teknologi baru. Kami akan membahas bagaimana Kecerdasan Buatan (AI) mempercepat personalisasi dalam skala besar, bagaimana Ekonomi Kreator telah mengubah pemasaran influencer menjadi kemitraan strategis, dan bagaimana peraturan privasi data seperti GDPR telah menjadikan kepercayaan sebagai metrik pemasaran yang terukur. Episode ini akan memberi Anda kerangka kerja untuk tidak hanya menavigasi lanskap digital saat ini tetapi juga untuk berkembang di dalamnya, mengubah cara Anda berkomunikasi dan terhubung dengan audiens Anda selamanya. Dengarkan sekarang untuk mempelajari cara menerapkan Aturan Baru dan memenangkan hati dan pikiran di era digital.

James Patto is the Partner of Helios Salinger. He is a leading voice in Australia's tech law landscape, trusted by business and government on privacy, cybersecurity, and AI issues. With over a decade of experience as a digital lawyer, he helps organizations turn regulation into opportunity — bridging law, innovation, and strategy to build trust and thrive in a digital world. In this episode… Australian privacy law stands at a critical juncture as organizations potentially face the country's most significant regulatory transformation yet. While the current principles-based Australian Privacy Act has been the foundation for over a decade, it contains notable gaps, like limited individual rights and broad exemptions for small businesses, employee data, and political parties. 84% of Australians want more control over how their personal information is collected and used, and with recent enforcement changes introducing civil penalties and on-the-spot fines, regulators now have stronger tools to hold organizations accountable. As lawmakers consider the next phase of reforms, how can businesses prepare for new compliance requirements while navigating an uncertain implementation timeline?  Businesses can adapt to evolving privacy regulations and position themselves for success by strengthening their current privacy practices, including focusing on privacy notice quality, direct marketing opt-out procedures, and data breach response notice accuracy. Conducting a privacy maturity assessment and implementing streamlined, risk-based privacy impact assessments can help identify gaps and prepare for new compliance obligations. It's also critical for organizations to understand the data they collect, where it resides, how it's used, shared, or sold by building a comprehensive data inventory. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels talk with James Patto, Partner at Helios Salinger, about the current state and future of Australia's privacy law. James discusses the major shifts in Australia's privacy landscape and the broader implications for businesses. He shares how Australia's strong small business sector influences privacy policymaking and how the Privacy Review Report's 89 proposals might reshape Australia's regulatory framework. James also explores the differences between Australia's privacy law and the GDPR, the timeline for proposed reforms, and what companies should do now to prepare.

“Verification is no longer a nice-to-have—it's a must-have,” says Gegham Azatyan, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer at Dexatel, in a conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News. In this episode, Azatyan introduces Dexatel Verify, a new CPaaS solution designed to intelligently authenticate users across multiple channels in real time. Founded in 2015, Dexatel helps global brands build secure and reliable customer communication through SMS, voice, email, and chat apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Viber. Now, with the launch of Dexatel Verify, the company is addressing the rising challenges of online fraud, fake accounts, and high messaging costs—particularly in markets where SMS pricing is prohibitive or unreliable. Gegham Azatyan Unlike traditional one-time password (OTP) solutions, Dexatel Verify uses smart fallback logic, a system that dynamically selects the best communication channel for each user and region. If a text message fails, the system might try a voice call or switch to WhatsApp or RCS—all automatically and in real time. This innovation isn't just about efficiency—it's also about cost savings. “Customers using fallback logic can save up to 30%,” Azatyan notes, especially those in high-volume industries like fintech, e-commerce, healthcare, and education. The solution is also fully compliant with GDPR and ISO 27001, making it suitable for businesses operating in regulated sectors. As Dexatel expands into the U.S. and Canadian markets, Azatyan sees Verify as a critical enabler for companies onboarding new users securely and affordably—turning customer verification into a seamless, cost-effective, and fraud-resistant process.

As InfoSecurity Europe prepares to welcome cybersecurity professionals from across the globe, Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, shares why this moment—and this location—matters. Allen doesn't frame the conversation around hype or headlines. Instead, he focuses on a universal truth: organizations want to sleep better at night knowing their environments are secure.ThreatLocker's mission is grounded in achieving Zero Trust in a simple, operationally feasible way. But more than that, Allen emphasizes their value as enablers of peace of mind. Whether helping customers prevent ransomware attacks or meet regional regulatory requirements like GDPR or Australia's Essential Eight, the company is working toward real-world solutions that reduce complexity without sacrificing security. Their presence at events like InfoSecurity Europe is key—not just for outreach, but to hear directly from customers and partners about what's working and where they need help.Why Being There MattersDifferent regions have different pressures. In Australia, adoption surged without any local team initially on the ground—driven purely by alignment with the Essential Eight framework. In the UK, it's conversations about Cyber Essentials that shape booth discussions. Regulations aren't just compliance checklists; they're also conversation starters that change how organizations prioritize security.The ThreatLocker team doesn't rely on generic demos or vague promises. They bring targeted examples to the booth—like asking attendees if they know what software can be run on their machines without alerting anyone. If tools like remote desktop applications or archive utilities can be freely executed, attackers can use them too. This is where ThreatLocker steps in: controlling what runs, identifying what's necessary, and blocking what isn't.Booth D90 and BeyondRob Allen invites anyone—whether they're new to ThreatLocker or longtime users—to visit booth D90. The team, built with a mix of technical skill and humor (ask about the “second-best beard” in the company), is there to listen and help. It's not just about showcasing technology; it's about building relationships and reinforcing a shared goal: practical, proactive cybersecurity that makes a measurable difference.If you're at InfoSecurity Europe, stop by.

With the decline of third-party cookies and the rise of privacy regulations like GDPR and iOS updates, understanding what truly drives conversions is more challenging than ever. So, how can marketers prove ROI when many traditional tracking tools no longer apply? I recently sat down with Jeff Greenfield, CEO of Provalytics - an AI-driven attribution platform built for the cookieless era. With over 30 years of marketing experience, Jeff shared what's actually working today - and how HR and HR tech businesses can apply these insights to drive real growth. In a wide-ranging discussion, Jeff and I talked about: ✅ How GDPR and cookie changes are reshaping ad measurement. ✅ The challenge of “walled gardens” like Google and Meta. ✅ Why last-click attribution misrepresents customer journeys. ✅ How Provalytics uses AI to fill tracking gaps. ✅ The strategic shift from click-based to impression-based metrics. ✅ Risks of undervaluing top-of-funnel marketing. ✅ Jeff's advice on how companies can adapt with better data and tools. ✅ And much more.
