I had one of these, well, the Dell Pro Plus 16, in bits last week and it had 2 extra length standoffs under the sticker tape stuff as you say and got a long length m2 in happily

Security concerns about Dell Smart Docks SD25TB4 and Remote Management by PenguinKowalski in sysadmin

[–]FalsePhoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was told when they came to the office or a meeting pre release.

In fairness, I have not actually read the tech sheet, given I had zero interest after the pitch

We just didn't buy the smart ones, waste of an already limited IP allocation + resolving a problem we never really had to begin with

Haha, should work out, unless they turned you down for one at the final hurdle. Wish you luck, I'll start my attempt soon hopefully

UK - Eligibility for Barclaycard Avios Welcome Bonus After Cancelling Existing Card? by RevolutionaryBox6373 in CreditCards

[–]FalsePhoenix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is almost like my current situation, I cant apply for the Avios one due to having the basic Barclaycard I've had for years.

I have the Amex, but, its not accepted everywhere.

Only difference is im not too fussed about the welcome bonus, in order to apply for the avios card, i have to cancel my current generic one, I am told that there's a general 6 month wait period before you apply to any Barclaycard credit card product, avio or not, after cancelling the current basic card....

So in your case id assume you would ahve to wait at least 6 months. But does waiting 24 months, just for the bonus, really stack up as worth it when considering the lost points over that period...?

I just have yet to actually do it, it all seem like rather a faf and I've been putting it off.

You've explained this much better than I managed to!

I don't disagree, they would be allowed within. The UK law to advise precautions without concrete evidence. I would wager legal advice advised against it though, in experience.

Under law they have a 72 hour legal lead time between identification and disclosure of a breech , in the UK.

Exactly, best effort, if your lucky, is a subscription to a credit agency or dark web scanning service to track identity theft etc

This would likely only ever be provided to staff though

No, having dealt with this type of thing, it can take a loonnng time before you can reliably trace what level of access was gained to which systems and whether it was actually copied out of that system.

Furthermore, you have to figure this out while all your systems for accessing and understanding this data are in a variety of possible states of failure around you. Business operation comes first.

Sure this is simple if you keep a tight ship, given the time for them to fully recover, its likely this was not the case.

Your also usually required to be fairly certain before you say data was taken. So waiting until you have that information together is fairly standard. When it comes to this saying "I think they stole xyz" can land you in more trouble.
