Governance Reform Working Group Charter

... Scope & Task: The Board hopes the Working Group will foster a broad, open community discussion on the general topic of governance changes. This is the draft charter for the Working Group (WG). In order to ensure a broad community consensus on the goals this charter reflects, this charter will be reviewed by the ChAC, the OMAC, and the IETF prior to its consideration by the Board as a potential ongoing work plan for the WG.

We Fight For the Users

Here at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, we have a guiding motto: "I Fight For the Users." (We even put it on t-shirts from time to time!) We didn't pick that one by accident (nor merely because we dig the 1982 classic film "Tron"), but because it provides such a clear moral compass when we sit down to work every day. ... This summer, the Internet Engineering Task Force's Internet Architecture Board began circulating RFC 8890: The Internet is for End Users, and we think it's just terrific (RFC stands for "Request for Comment"; it's what the IETF calls its internal documents, including its standards).

How to use the ProblemDetails middleware in ASP.NET Core

For an API to be maintainable and usable there should be consistency in the way responses are sent to the clients. This article talks about ProblemDetails, open source ASP.NET Core middleware from Kristian Hellang that can be used to generate detailed results for the exceptions that occur in your application. ... The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) published a document in March 2016, called Problem Details For HTTP APIs, that defines a format that can be used to send out machine-readable details about the errors that occur in an application. You can take advantage of this format in the ProblemDetails middleware to define errors and error messages in HTTP API responses. Plus, all of your exceptions can be handled in one place: You can always return an instance of ProblemDetails to the consuming client irrespective of the type of error that has occurred.

What Huawei and China's New IP proposal is all about

... Aren’t there other ways to fix these problems? The proposal doesn’t deny this, but argues that there’s more to be done. It cites IPv6 over Low Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPAN), an internet standard working group in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

SVG Tech Insight: Telephony in the Modern Video Production Facility

... However, not only do telecom costs drop dramatically when switching to VoIP, reliability skyrockets. Telecom companies are actively maintaining and growing their IP backbone. What’s more, providers can offer divergent paths and redundant circuits with automatic failover in ways that were just not possible with POTS. Another excellent feature of VoIP is the granular troubleshooting it affords. The widely accepted SIP protocol, standardized by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), includes more than 40 different error messages that can tell you why a call was not completed.

IETF AND QUIC

Google begins adding HTTP/3 and IETF QUIC support in Chrome

Google is beginning to implement support for HTTP/3 in its Chrome browser, the company announced in a blog post. The update will bring some additional performance improvements, mostly thanks to the implementation of QUIC as the transport protocol.

< <https://www.neowin.net/news/google-begins-adding-http3-and-ietf-quic-support-in-chrome/> https://www.neowin.net/news/google-begins-adding-http3-and-ietf-quic-support-in-chrome/>

Google Chrome browser is rolling out HTTP/3 via IETF QUIC

Forward-looking: HTTP/3 over QUIC is the replacement for the only thing that hasn’t changed on the web in the last thirty years; TCP (transmission control protocol). QUIC uses UDP (user datagram protocol) instead of TCP and is thus simpler and faster.

< <https://www.techspot.com/news/87058-google-chrome-browser-rolling-out-http3-ietf-quic.html> https://www.techspot.com/news/87058-google-chrome-browser-rolling-out-http3-ietf-quic.html>

Google Chrome deploying QUIC, HTTP/3 protocols to reduce YouTube buffer time and more

Google Chrome now broadly supports QUIC, a new networking transport protocol that consolidates the features of TCP, TLS, among others. Meanwhile, Chrome is rolling out support for HTTP/3, which is the latest version of the HTTP communication protocol. HTTP is responsible for the majority of web traffic and communication between clients (web browsers) and websites. HTTP/3 runs over QUIC. As a result, both these protocols are related.

Google Chrome and YouTube will speed up!

Competition in the internet browser market is quite high. Although each browser has different features, the most important criterion is the ability to search quickly. The debate over browser preference does not seem to end either. In this area, browsers such as Safari, Edge, Chrome, Mozilla and Opera are improving themselves day by day. Now Google Chrome and YouTube will speed up with the QUIC feature.

C#-Innovationen machen die Sprache fit für Serverless in der Cloud [C-Innovations Make the Language Fit for Serverless in the Cloud]

... Das .NET-Team hat in den letzten Jahren viel in dieser Hinsicht investiert. Mit Project Bedrock [10] wurden Abstraktionen und Cross-Cutting Concerns entwickelt, die es Bibliotheken wie zum Beispiel SignalR erlauben, auf unterschiedlichen Basisprotokollen (z. B. TCP, Websockets) aufzusetzen. Kestrel, der Webserver von .NET Core, nutzt ebenfalls die Ergebnisse von Bedrock, um nicht nur HTTP zu unterstützen, sondern auch beispielsweise TCP Sockets (System.Net.Sockets) oder libuv. Kommende Protokollinnovationen wie QUIC werden mit Hilfe von Bedrock einfacher und schneller in .NET genutzt werden können.

I v této oblasti probíhá neustálý vývoj a Google už před lety přišel s dalším protokolem s názvem QUIC, ze kterého se později vyvinul HTTP/3. "Protokol používá pro přenos UDP, u kterého není zaručeno, kdy data přijdou a jestli vůbec přijdou. Proto QUIC nad UDP vlastně vytvořil vlastní řízení provozu podobné TCP."

Activity Alert: Emotet Malware

Emotet—a sophisticated Trojan commonly functioning as a downloader or dropper of other malware—resurged in July 2020, after a dormant period that began in February. Since August, CISA and MS-ISAC have seen a significant increase in malicious cyber actors targeting state and local governments with Emotet phishing emails. This increase has rendered Emotet one of the most prevalent ongoing threats.

Amid an Embarrassment of Riches, Ransom Gangs Increasingly Outsource Their Work

There’s an old adage in information security: “Every company gets penetration tested, whether or not they pay someone for the pleasure.” Many organizations that do hire professionals to test their network security posture unfortunately tend to focus on fixing vulnerabilities hackers could use to break in. But judging from the proliferation of help-wanted ads for offensive pentesters in the cybercrime underground, today’s attackers have exactly zero trouble gaining that initial intrusion: The real challenge seems to be hiring enough people to help everyone profit from the access already gained.

Here Comes the Internet of Plastic Things, No Batteries or Electronics Required

When technologists talk about the “Internet of Things” (IoT), they often gloss over the fact that all these interconnected things need batteries and electronics to carry out the job of collecting and processing data while they’re communicating to one another. This job is made even more challenging when you consider that many of the objects we would like to connect are made from plastic and do not have electronics embedded into them.
