Panthrax posted:Reminds me of my field ops guy who pulled the wrong hard drive out of my SAN. You know, the one that I said "pull drive 11, the one at the bottom right corner" and he pulled 10. His response? "Oh, sorry, I heard one time that PC equipment you start counting at 1 instead of 0. Guess I should have asked first." You know, or looked at the little loving picture that tells you what each drive number is. Javid posted:Are the drives not labeled? That seems like a basic yet vital step to take, there. Emphasis mine, but I'd say yes, the drives were labeled.

Some network drops came in... Users at a certain office call yesterday as they keep getting kicked out of a certain program. After some investigation, it's determined that it's a network issue and after rebooting the interface in question, performance improved. What was the issue? Well, apparently our parent company installed the circuit at the office instead of the datacenter last year, and nobody has done anything about it. Oh yes, and also we're going to upgrade it from 100 Mb to a gig. Oh yes, and also one of our Sysadmins sent the ticket back to us saying to get more details and send to App Support in case it's an application issue. He was on the email chain yesterday and responded to it. Moving on to the next issue which no one has worked on for a year, apparently at 6 every night, both our office and the one at a nearby office drop connection for a few seconds, leading the office to get kicked out of their program (same program as the first office). It looks to be because Shoretel (our PCs at both offices are connected to the Shoretel phones and then the phones are plugged into the wall) has a default setting to go into sleep mode at 6 PM every day and come back out of it at 6 AM. Somebody apparently set it up to do this at 7 PM instead but never removed the 6 PM one.

A ticket came in.. From an Exchange rule. We created an exchange rule in an attempt to reduce phishing e-mails masquerading as our executive team. The results have been really positive and I almost cheer when I see a bunch of phishing e-mails that didn't make it to a users inbox.

G Suite has a specific feature now that flags messages where the name in the"from" field matches something in the corporate directory but the email came from an external source. At this point I think a banner at the top of messages to inform people that the email wasn't from inside the company is more or less mandatory. Also if you're going to the effort of putting in custom rules, get your SPF/DKIM and DMARC nailed down first and clean up any third-party services that are just spoofing your address.

We have exceptions added for the personal e-mail addresses of the executives, and the rule sends incident reports to the helpdesk.

Re: Phishing After 2 or so years, I finally fell for one of the educational "fake" phishing emails. The security team brilliantly aped a corporate email, all the way down to the logo, wording, and the linked external survey ("Click here to share your thoughts on the recent So-and-So Initiative!"). My last company used an internal tool for surveys, but here we hardly have anything on prem so a link to CorpSurveySite.Com went right under my radar. Thank goodness it was fake.
