Segment 1: Interview with Rob Allen It's the Year of the (Clandestine) Linux Desktop! As if EDR evasions weren't enough, attackers are now employing yet another method to hide their presence on enterprise systems: deploying tiny Linux VMs. Attackers are using Hyper-V and/or WSL to deploy tiny (120MB disk space and 256MB memory) Linux VMs to host a custom reverse shell and reverse proxy. In this segment, we'll discuss strategies and mitigations to battle this novel technique with Rob Allen from Threatlocker.

Key takeaways: Broadcom's Acquisition of VMware is Causing Major Disruption due to massive license cost increases of 300-500% for many organizations. Microsoft Hyper-V is a Viable Alternative to VMware. It offers a mature, enterprise-ready hypervisor that can be a cost-effective replacement for VMware. Azure Stack HCI Provides an On-Premises VMware Alternative. It provides a hyperconverged infrastructure solution with Hyper-V at the core, along with integration to Azure services for management and modernization. Security pitfalls can arise when organizations rush to migrate away from VMware due to the Broadcom situation. Proper planning, understanding the security posture of the new platform, and ensuring critical configurations like backup are in place are essential to mitigate risks.

Bret and Matt are joined by Corey Quinn to talk about AWS and containers.Corey Quinn is the Chief Cloud Economist at the Duckbill Group. You may have seen or heard some of his in-depth AWS content, including his Last Week in AWS newsletter and blog, Corey's podcast Screaming in the Cloud and the AWS Morning Brief, or his highly produced YouTube videos on the Last Week in AWS channel. Corey runs the Duckbill Group, a company of people focused on helping clients understand and manage their cloud spend. If I had to describe Corey in a sentence, he's a quick thinking AWS expert who is one part cloud strategist, and one part sarcasm. The inspiration for this show came from his blog series, focused on all the ways to run containers on AWS, which is to say there's a lot. Dozens of ways, in fact, which I took as a testament to how containers have won the cloud as the primary way to package and deploy software to servers. Now, the hard part for us is to figure out which method we're going to choose for running those containers. We go on lots of tangents, but overall it was a fun conversation and I hope you enjoy this episode.Live recording of the complete show from May 4, 2023 is on YouTube (Ep. #214).★Topics★The Cloud Resume ChallengeLast Week in AWS17 ways to run containers on AWS17 MORE ways to run containers on AWSSupport this show and get exclusive benefits on Patreon, YouTube, or bretfisher.com!★Join my Community★New live course on CI automation and gitops deploymentsBest coupons for my Docker and Kubernetes coursesChat with us and fellow students on our Discord Server DevOps FansGrab some merch at Bret's Loot BoxHomepage bretfisher.comCreators & Guests Bret Fisher - Host Cristi Cotovan - Editor Beth Fisher - Producer Matt Williams - Host Corey Quinn - Guest (00:00) - Intro (07:19) - 17 Ways to Run Containers on AWS (09:57) - If you're using the cloud, use the cloud!

We've got Microsoft MVP Eric Siron for a conversation about the end of Hyper-V Server (the free SKU of Hyper-V). Again, to confirm, we're talking about the free SKU of Hyper-V. The normal paid SKUs - the well-known role within Windows Server - will be remaining. This announcement came abruptly and was something of a shock to many people. Hyper-V server was the primary test/dev hypervisor for many organizations, not to mention it was great for licensing in VDI scenarios. News of its untimely demise has created some angst in the community. Many IT Pros see this move by Microsoft as a way to takeaway a great free tool and use the situation to start pushing Azure Stack HCI, which many organizations are not ready to adopt at this time. The good news is that Hyper-V Server 2019 is going to continue to be supported until its extended support lifecycle runs out in 2029. This means that many organizations will have plenty of time to migrate to an alternative. What do you think? Is this change going to be impactful for you? Let us know! In this episode on free Hyper-V: What is Hyper-V Server? - 2:10 Is Hyper-V Server being discontinued? - 11:04 Where do Hyper-V Server users go from here? - 18:15 What are some alternatives to Hyper-V Server? - 21:49 Resources for Hyper-V Server: Hyper-V Server on the DOJO Azure Stack HCI on the DOJO ESXi Hypervisor on the DOJO Link to Communities Thread discussing Hyper-V Server's discontinuation Hyper-V Server Lifecycle Episode with Ben Armstrong on Hyper-V Server Episode with Ben Armstrong on AKS on Azure Stack HCI Client Hyper-V vs. Virtualbox - Which is Best for You?

This week we look at 5 mistakes people make with their TV Settings and how to fix them and long time listener Jerry documents his transition from the Insteon Home Hub to Home Assistant. We have no email but we do discuss some of the week's news in an episode that includes a discussion about Mead, Bourbon, Beer, and Moonshine! News: Harman Kardon Citation MultiBeam 1100 soundbar boasts Dolby Atmos audio Roku welcomes Apple Music to its lineup Alexa can tell you when your security camera detects a person or package Wyze takes on Ecobee, Nest with new room sensors for its smart thermostat 5 mistakes everyone makes with LG OLED TVs, and how to fix them Thanks to their irresistible combination of futuristic, super-slim designs and consistently outstanding picture quality, LG OLED TVs have become the darlings of the high-end TV world – they're not only among the best OLED TVs, but the best TVs of any kind. The problem is that few TVs are set up to deliver their best possible viewing experience out of the box, so if you haven't picked the right settings, you're not getting the most from your TV. So let's look here at some of the most common set up mistakes LG OLED owners make that may be stopping them from getting the viewing experience they deserve. Full article here… Cheat Sheet for Insteon Replacement with HomeAssistant (2.0) Like many I was shocked to see my Insteon hub with a permanent red light and my expensive IOT devices inoperative. A good number of ex-Insteon users are looking to other implementations of home management system and I soon discovered that HomeAssistant does work with Insteon Devices. The help pages are well done and explain the procedures well. I am back up and running with HomeAssistant following the instructions, but it is not simple and here are some of the fine points. The definitive solution involves either the HomeAssistant server hardware or a Rasberry Pi with the software installed. You can run the system using Virtual system implement ations such as Microsofts's Hyper-V or VirtualBox. I suggest you try Virtual Box before you decide to buy dedicated hardware. I found the Hyper-V unusable, as I have with other implementations, but the VBox works… though was not stable enough in my hands for a permanent install. So with Ara's financing I bought a Raspberry Pi on Amazon with the additional bits and pieces you NEED: mico-SD card for the system; mini-HDMI connector for a display as well as getting a mouse and keyboard to attach and of course an ethernet cable. Here are the nice install instructions: https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/raspberrypi/ The set-up is self generated and you really just follow the questions. If you did this right, the home screen will appear on any web browser populated by a lot of devices you never thought you had, including the hub.. Each of these will then show up on your home screen which is your interface, as well as on your smart phone. My goal was to get the cameras that I use in my astronomical observatory to work, which I did https://www.astrobin.com/users/jerryyyyy/ There are many viable “canned” interfaces and contingency programming and the home page is entirely customizable… I am still learning and a real time sink. The biggest problem is initializing some devices. The hub interface seems worthless as it never showed all my devices and I basically had to add them back in one by one. I made a spreadsheet with the MAC address and set fixed IP addresses for many… If you do not know what I am talking about when I mention MAC addresses or IP addresses, you will be in trouble because you need to mess with your router and set up “fixed IP addresses” for some devices… also cameras have BOTH Wi-Fi and Ethernet MAC Addresses… On the other hand, if you know what I am talking about, this is a piece of cake. My to-do list: Get the motion sensor up and running (Appears to be impossible). See if there is a way to pan work the cameras (Maybe learning more Python). Get the GPS location off my iPhone into the system… yes you can get this through the App. Find some good models for home pages and automations… there are tons but hard to choose. The one I have is pretty basic. Bottom line, all in all this is a viable option if you are familiar with the basics of networking. Essential Afterthought: How to back-up your installation. I learned that to shut down the Pi you do not pull the power cord… you go to the Linux shell and “sudo halt” luckily my install came back after that adventure. You can backup and reinstall the SD card contents using Win32 Disk Imager: https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ If you put this system together, you do not want to lose it!
Welcome to the second of a two-part series on the management and tooling ecosystem for Hyper-V, for on-prem and hybrid cloud. In part one, our host Andy Syrewicze and guest Eric Siron discussed the traditional on-prem Hyper-V management tools at length. This included tools such as Hyper-V Manager, PowerShell, and Failover Cluster Manager amongst others. In part two, the guys peer into the modern era and the future of virtualization management in the Microsoft space. For example, Windows Admin Center is Microsoft's next generation Windows Server management tool, but how does it stack up to managing Hyper-V? Where does Azure Arc fit in?

Sponsors Circle CI Episode on CI/CD with Circle CI Show DetailsIn this episode, we cover the following topics: Hypervisor implementations Hyper-V Type 1 hypervisor from Microsoft Architecture Implements isolation of virtual machines in terms of a partition Partition is logical unit of isolation in which each guest OS executes Parent partition Virtualization software runs in parent partition and has direct access to hardware Requires supported version of Windows Server There must be at least one parent partition Parent partition creates child partitions which host the guest OSes Done via Hyper-V "hypercall" API Parent partitions run a Virtualization Service Provider (VSP) which connects to the VMBus Handles device access requests from child partition Child partition Does not have direct access to hardware Has virtual view of processor and runs in Guest Virtual Address (not necessarily the entire virtual address space) Hypervisor handles interrupts to processor, and redirects to respective partition Any request to the virtual devices is redirected via the VMBus to the devices in the parent partition VMBus Logical channel which enables inter-partition communication KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) Virtualization module in Linux kernel Turns Linux kernel into hypervisor Available in mainline Linux since 2007 Can run multiple VMs running unmodified Linux or Windows images Leverages hardware virtualization Via CPU virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V) But also provides paravirtualization support for Linux/FreeBSD/NetBSD/Windows using VirtIO API Architecture Kernel component Consists of: Loadable kernel module, kvm.ko, that provides the core virtualization infrastructure Processor specific module, kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko Userspace component QEMU (Quick Emulator) Userland program that does hardware emulation Used by KVM for I/O emulations AWS hypervisor choices & history AWS uses custom hardware for faster EC2 VM performance Original EC2 technology ran highly customized version of Xen hypervisor VMs can run using either paravirtualization (PV) or hardware virtual machine (HVM) HVM guests are fully virtualized VMs on top of hypervisor are not aware they are sharing with other VMs Memory allocated to guest OSes is scrubbed by hypervisor when it is de-allocated Only AWS admins have access to hypervisors AWS found that Xen has many limitations that impede their growth Engineers improved performance by moving parts of software stack to purpose-built hardware components C3 instance family (2013) Debut of custom chips in Amazon EC2 Custom network interface for faster bandwidth and throughput C4 instance family (2015) Offload network virtualization to custom hardware with ASIC optimized for storage services C5 instance family (2017) Project Nitro Traditional hypervisors do everything Protect the physical hardware and bios, virtualize the CPU, storage, networking, management tasks Nitro breaks apart those functions, offloading to dedicated hardware and software Replace Xen with a highly optimized KVM hypervisor tightly coupled with an ASIC Very fast VMs approaching performance of bare metal server Amazon EC2 – Bare metal instances (2017) Use Project Nitro Links Xen Project Kernel Virtual Machine QEMU Mastering KVM Virtualization Hyper-V AWS Nitro System AWS re:Invent 2018: Powering Next-Gen EC2 Instances: Deep Dive into the Nitro System AWS re:Invent 2017: C5 Instances and the Evolution of Amazon EC2 Virtualization End SongFax - StagesFor a full transcription of this episode, please visit the episode webpage.We'd love to hear from you!

What can HashiCorp's Packer do for you? Carl and Richard talk to Jamie Phillips about how Packer helps to make golden images of hypervisor machines - that would be Hyper-V, VMWare or any of the container solutions so that you can ship them out to whoever needs them. The images can be used as part of your pipeline to push cloud products into a store, or for developers to work from production-configured images, and so on. Packer is a powerful open source solution that can be part of your CI/CD pipeline!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations
