  1. Loverboy - Working for the Weekend
  2. The U.S. Department of Defense secured an exposed server on Monday that was spilling internal U.S. military emails to the open internet for the past two weeks. The exposed server was hosted on Microsoft’s Azure government cloud for Department of Defense customers, which uses servers that are physically separated from other commercial customers and as such can be used to share sensitive but unclassified government data. The exposed server was part of an internal mailbox system storing about three terabytes of internal military emails, many pertaining to U.S. Special Operations Command, or USSOCOM, the U.S. military unit tasked with conducting special military operations. But a misconfiguration left the server without a password, allowing anyone on the internet access to the sensitive mailbox data inside using only a web browser, just by knowing its IP address. Anurag Sen, a good-faith security researcher known for discovering sensitive data that has been inadvertently published online, found the exposed server over the weekend and provided details to TechCrunch so we could alert the U.S. government. The server was packed with internal military email messages, dating back years, some of which contained sensitive personnel information. One of the exposed files included a completed SF-86 questionnaire, which are filled out by federal employees seeking a security clearance and contain highly sensitive personal and health information for vetting individuals before they are cleared to handle classified information. These personnel questionnaires contain a significant amount of background information on security clearance holders valuable to foreign adversaries. In 2015, suspected Chinese hackers stole millions of sensitive background check files of government employees who sought security clearance in a data breach at the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. None of the limited data seen by TechCrunch appeared to be classified, which would be consistent with USSOCOM’s civilian network, as classified networks are inaccessible from the internet. According to a listing on Shodan, a search engine that crawls the web for exposed systems and databases, the mailbox server was first detected as spilling data on February 8. It’s not clear how the mailbox data became exposed to the public internet, but it’s likely due to a misconfiguration caused by human error. TechCrunch contacted USSOCOM on Sunday morning during a U.S. holiday weekend but the exposed server wasn’t secured until Monday afternoon. When reached by email, a senior Pentagon official confirmed they had passed details of the exposed server to USSOCOM. The server was inaccessible soon after. USSOCOM spokesperson Ken McGraw said in an email on Tuesday that an investigation, which began Monday, is under way. “We can confirm at this point is no one hacked U.S. Special Operations Command’s information systems,” said McGraw. It’s not known if anyone other than Sen found the exposed data during the two-week window that the cloud server was accessible from the internet. TechCrunch asked the Department of Defense if it has the technical ability, such as logs, to detect any evidence of improper access or data exfiltration from the database, but the spokesperson did not say.

  4. One Thing, Jesus Christ. Stations of the Cross Series, Station #1 by Fr. Ben Daghir & Luke Daghir Editor's Note: Fr. Ben Daghir and Luke Daghir will have 14 articles based upon the stations of the cross. The 14th article will conclude on Easter Sunday. Article: The 1st Station: Jesus is condemned to death. Archbishop Fulton Sheen noted that Jesus Christ came to earth to die. Sheen’s insight is grounded in the understanding that Jesus is both a priest and a victim. Never before had a priest been the one who sacrificed and was sacrificed. Something other than the priest was always sacrificed (e.g., goats, rams, lambs, doves, pigeons, etc.). Jesus Christ is unique, peculiar, and powerful. Any understanding which avoids the truth that Christ came to die misinterprets and inevitably diminishes Him to a mere moral teacher or good-hearted fellow among many throughout history. Jesus is God. He is the High Priest. He is the sacrificial offering. Jesus Christ is both the priest and the victim. He is the shepherd and the lamb. He is the one who offers sacrifice and is sacrificed. The Bible is not interested in diminishing Christ to just another moral teacher. Consider the Letter to the Hebrews, “It was fitting that we should have such a high priest: holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, higher than the heavens” (Hebrews 7:26). Jesus is a priest who is higher than the heavens yet an undefiled sacrifice. Good moral teachers may shape a generation but they do not open Heaven. Something radically different is happening with Jesus Christ - His sacrificial death is efficacious. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches us that, “By his death and Resurrection, Jesus Christ has ‘opened’ Heaven to us” (CCC, 1026). In the 1st station of the cross the chief priests are handing over to the Romans the perfect sacrifice, the God-man. Their rationale is that they are condemning a man to the horrible and cruel death of a Roman crucifixion. In other words, the crucifixion will end the Jesus movement and his followers will scatter. This 1st station doesn’t catch Jesus off guard. Again, remember Archbishop Fulton Sheen’s insight - Jesus Christ came to die. We read in the Gospel of Matthew that Jesus predicts His death (which He does numerous times). He says to the disciples, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!” (Matthew 20:18-19). The journey of the cross is predicted by Christ. He knows what is to come: bruised, beaten, mocked, betrayed, abandoned, whipped, scourged, ridiculed, humiliated, tortured, ignored, unjustly accused, broken up, poured out, crucified, and sacrificed. In the Gospel of John Jesus tells his disciples, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit.” (John 12:24). Jesus is in control. He is the High Priest. He is the Victim. His death is about to explode evil from the inside out. Thus, we are challenged in this 1st station to encounter Christ who came to die so that we “may have life and have it abundantly” (John 10:10). “We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you; because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.” ======================== Fr. Ben Daghir is a priest for the Diocese of Erie. He is a graduate of Elk County Catholic High School in Saint Marys, Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, and St. Mary's Seminary & University in Baltimore, Maryland. He considers writing one of his favorite hobbies.

  10. It's all a show!! It's WAKING the sleepers up! If you actually think this is real, I'm still praying for you. This is most likely CGI. I doubt Biden ever left the US. Have you noticed how much REAL NEWS coming out just in the last 2 months including the distractions of balloons & UFO's. It will continue to DRIP daily until this military operation is over.
