Hackers hacked the two satellites for some minutes


Hackers hacked the two satellites for some minutes



According to a US report recently claimed that hackers had managed to interfere with two military satellites, but one expert argues the amount of energy required would be too great for ordinary hackers.
The hackers took control of the Landsat-7 and Terra AM-1 satellites for a grand total of 12 minutes and two minutes respectively.
One might hope that the communications satellites suspended in orbit above the earth might be one component of the planet’s technology infrastructure that is safely out of harm’s way.
But as satellite communications enthusiast Paul Marsh explained at the London Security B-Sides event in April, there are reasons to doubt the reports. He spoke about a similar story, reported in the late 1990s, about hackers supposedly accessing UK military satellite communications network SkyNet and ‘nudging’ one satellite out of synch.
Whether Chinese hackers have that capability now is just one more matter of speculation to add to the opaque field of cyber warfare.

Changing the path policy of the SCSI lun device using Powercli in Vmware Vsphere Environment

-

Today my motto is to change the path policy of the scsi lun from Fixed to round robin. It’s always a pain to change the path policy of the scsi lun device, it takes hours of time to change the path manually in case if we have the large environments of say 2000 ESXi and with more than 400 Devices connected with the Esxi. so we used some Powercli and create a loop to perform the redundant task well in crisp words we tried to automate this task which could save hours of manual works Code: $server = Get-content "C:\hostfile.txt" foreach ($i in $server) { Get-ScsiLun -VmHost $i -CanonicalName "naa.6006*" | where {$_.MultipathPolicy -ne "RoundRobin"} | Set-ScsiLun -MultipathPolicy RoundRobin } Here in the above code I am calling the list of ESXi Host in the file named as hostfile.txt and passing it to the variable $server and this will create an array of characters over the variable $server , Each character represents Esxi hosts on devops...
