From San Francisco, it's theCUBE, covering Accenture TechVision 2020. Brought to you by Accenture. Hey, welcome back everybody. Jeff Frick here from theCUBE. We are high atop San Francisco at the Accenture Innovation Hub, 33rd floor of the Salesforce Tower. It's a beautiful night, but we're here for a very special occasion. It's the TechVision 2020 reveal and we are happy to have the guy that runs the whole thing. He's going to reveal on stage a little bit later, but we got him in advance. He's Paul Doherty, the Chief Technology and Information Officer for Accenture. Paul, great to see you as always. Great to see you, Jeff, too. It is a beautiful evening here, looking out over the bay. If only we could turn the cameras around, but sorry, we can't do that. All right, so you've been at this now. The TechVision's been going on for 20 years, we heard earlier today. You've been involved for almost a decade. How has this thing evolved over that time? Yeah, we've been doing the vision for 20 years and what we've been trying to do is forecast what's happening with business and technology in a way that's actionable for executives. There's lots of trend forecasts and lists and things, but if you just see a list of cloud or AI, mobile, it doesn't really help. We're trying to talk a little bit about the impact on business, the impact of the world and the decisions that you need to make. What's changed over that period of time is just the breadth of the impact that technology is having on people. So we've focused a lot of our visions on the impact on humans, on individuals, what's happening with technology, the impact on business. We can talk about that a little bit more, but business is certainly not the back-office of companies anymore. It's not just the back-office in front-office either. It's business is instrumental in the fabric of how every part of a company operates, their strategy, their operations, their products and services, et cetera. And that's really the trajectory we've seen as technology advances and we have this accelerating exponential increase in technology. The implications for executives and the stakes just get higher and higher. There's so many layers to this. One of the things we've talked about a lot is trust and you guys talk about trust a lot, but what strikes me is kind of this dichotomy is on one hand, do I trust the companies, right? Do I trust Mark Zuckerberg with my data to pick on him? He gets picked on all the time. That might be a question, but do I trust that Facebook is going to work? Absolutely. And so our reliance on the technology, our confidence in the technology are just baseline assumption that this stuff is going to work is crazy high up to and including people taking naps in their Teslas, which are not a ton of this vehicle. So it's this weird kind of split where it's definitely part of our lives, but it seems like kind of the consciousness is coming up of kind of the second order. What does this really mean to me? What does this really mean to my data? What are people actually doing with this stuff? And am I making a good value exchange? Well, that's the, we talk in the vision this year about value versus values and the question you're asking is getting right at that. The crux between value and values. Businesses have been using technology to drive value for a long time. That's how, you know, applying different types of technology in the enterprise, whether it be back to the mainframe days or ERP packages, cloud computing, et cetera, artificial intelligence. So value is one thing we're talking about in the vision. How do you drive value using the technology? And one thing we found is there's a big gap. Only 10% of organizations are really getting full value from in the way they're applying technology and those that are, are getting twice the revenue growth as companies that are in. So that's one big gap in value. And then this values point is really getting to be important which is as technology can be deployed in ways that are more pervasive and impact our experience. They're tracking our health details there. They know where we are. They know what we're doing. They're anticipating what we might do next. How does that impact the values? How are the values of companies important in other ways? The values you have around sustainability and other things are increasingly important to new generations of consumers and consumers who are thinking in new ways. This value versus values is teeing up what we call a tech clash, which isn't a tech clash just against people reacting against tech companies, as you said earlier. It's a tech clash which is the values that consumers, citizens, and people want sometimes clashing with the value and the models that companies have been using to deliver their products and services. Well, it seems like what are you optimizing for, Gabe? And it seems like it was such an extreme optimization towards profitability and shareholder value and less necessarily employees, less necessarily customers, and certainly less in terms of the social impact. So that definitely seems to be changing but is it changing fast enough? Are people really grasping it? Well, I think the data is mixed on that. I think there's a lot of mixed data on what do people really want? You know, so people say they want more privacy, they say they want access and control their data, but they still use a lot of the services that may be inconsistent with the values that they talk about and the values that come out in surveys, but that's changing. So consumers are getting more educated about how they want their data to be used. But the other thing that's happening is that companies are realizing that it's really a battle for experience, creating broader experiences, better experiences for consumers is what the battleground is. An experience, whether you travel company or a bank or a manufacturing company, whatever you might be, creating the experience requires data. And to get the data from an individual or another company, it takes trust. So this virtual circle of experience, data, and trust is something that companies are realizing is essential to their competitive advantage going forward. And we say trust is the currency of the digital and post-digital world that we're moving into. Right. It's just how explicit is that trust, right? How explicit does it need to be? And as you said, that's unclear. People can complain on one hand, but continue to use the services. So it seems to be a little bit kind of squishy. It's a sliding scale. It's really a value exchange. They have to think about it. What's the value exchange and the value that individual consumer places on, their privacy versus free access to a service? That's what's being worked out right now. Right. So I want to get you to take on another thing, which is exponential curves. And you've mentioned time and time again, right? The pace of change is only accelerating. Well, you've been saying that probably for 20 years, right? So the curve's just getting steeper. How do you see that kind of playing out over time? Do we eventually catch up? Is it just presumed that this is kind of the new normal? Or how's this going to shake out? Because people aren't great at exponential curves. It's just not really in our DNA. Yeah, I think the, but I think that's the world we're operating in now. And I think the exponential potential is going to continue. We don't see a slowdown in the exponential growth rates of technology. So artificial intelligence, we're at the early days. Cloud computing, only about 20% enterprise adoption, a lot more to go. New adoptions around the horizon, things like central bank digital currencies that we've done some research and announced some work on recently. Quantum computing and quantum cryptography for networking, et cetera. So the pace of innovation is going to accelerate. And the challenge for organizations is rationalizing that and deciding how to incorporate that into their business, change their business and change the way that they're serving, that they're leveraging their workforce and change the way that they're interacting with the consumers. And that's why what we're trying to address is the vision is provide a little bit of that roadmap into how you digest and adapt. There's also technology foundations of this. We talk about something in Accenture called living systems. Living systems as a new way of looking at the architecture of how you build your technology because you don't have static systems anymore. Your systems have to be living in biological and adapting to the new technology, adapting to the business, adapting to new data over time. So this concept of living systems is going to be really important to organizations success going forward. That's interesting. It's one of the topics is AI and me. And traditional AI was very kind of purpose built. For instance, Google Photos, can you find the cat? Can I find the kids at the beach? But you're talking about kind of models where the AI can evolve and not necessarily be quite so data-centric around a specific application, but much more evolutionary and adaptable based on how things change. Yeah, I think that's the future of AI that we see. There's been a lot of success in applying AI today. And a lot of it's been based on supervised learning, deep learning techniques that require massive amounts of data. Solving problems like machine vision requires massive amounts of data to do it right. And that'll continue. There'll continue to be problem sets that need large data. But what we're also seeing is a lot of innovation and AI techniques around small data. And we actually did some research recently and we talked about this a little bit in our vision around the future maybe being smaller data sets and more structured data and intelligence around structured data, common sense AI, and things that allow us to make breakthroughs in different ways. We look at AI and me, which is the trend around the workforce and how the workforce changes. It's those kinds of adaptations that we think are going to be really important. So another one is robotics, robots in the wild. And you made an interesting comment. Robots gone wild, robots in the wild. Well, maybe they'll go wild once they're in the wild, you never know. Once they get autonomy, not a lot of autonomy, that's probably why. But it's kind of interesting, because you talked about robots being designed to help people do a better job as opposed to carving out a specific function for the robot to do without a person. And it seems like that's a much easier route to go to set up a discrete thing that we can carve out and program the robot to do it. Probably early days of manufacturing and doing spot welding at cars, et cetera. So is it a lot harder to do it to have the robot operate with its human partner if you will, but are the benefits worth it? How do you kind of see that shake it up versus I can carve out one more function? Yeah, I think it's going to be a mix. I think there'll be, but we see a lot of application of the robots paired with people in different ways, co-bots and manufacturing being a great example and something that's really taking off in manufacturing environments. And also, but also robots of different forms that serve human needs. There's a lot of interesting things going on in healthcare right now. How can you support autistic children or adults better using human-like robots and agents that can interact in different ways? There's a lot of interesting things around Alzheimer's and dealing with cognitive impairment and such using robots and robotics. So I think the future isn't, there's a lot of robots in the wild in the form of like C3PO's and R2D2's and those types of robots. And we'll see some of those and those are being used widely in business today even in different contexts. But I think the interesting advance will be looking at robots that compliment and augment and serve human needs more effectively. Right, right. And do people do a good enough job of getting some of the case studies like you just walk through of kind of the better use cases of the more humane use cases that the kind of cool medical breakthroughs versus just continued optimization of getting me my Starbucks coupon when I walk by out front. Yeah, I'm not sure. It doesn't seem like get the pub. They just don't get the pub, I don't think. No, maybe not. Although mixology is another function that robots are getting pretty good at. But I think that's one thing we're trying to do is through the effort we do with the vision as well as our tech for good work and other things is look at how we amplify and highlight some of the great work that is happening in those areas. So you've been doing it for a decade. What struck you this year as being a little bit different, a little bit unexpected, not necessarily something you've made and anticipated? I think the thing that is maybe a tipping point that I see in this vision that I didn't anticipate is this idea that every company is really becoming a technology company. We said eight years ago every business will be a digital business. And that was, while ridiculed by some at the time, that really came true and every business and every industry really is becoming digital or has already become digital. But I think we might've gotten it slightly wrong. Digital was kind of a step, but every company is deploying technology in the way they serve their customers and the way they build their products and services. Every product and services becoming technology enabled. The ecosystem of technology providers is critical to companies in every industry. So every company is really becoming a technology company. Every company needs to be as good as a digital native company at developing products and services and operating them. And so I think this idea of every company becoming a technology company, every CEO, becoming a technology CEO and technology leader is something that I think will differentiate companies going forward as well. Well really, good work you, Michael and the team. It's fun to come here every year because you guys do a little twist. Like you said, cloud's going to be really big. Mobile's going to be really big. But a little bit more thoughtful, a little bit more deep, a little bit longer kind of thought cycles on these trends. Yeah, and I think if you read through the vision, we're trying to present a complete story too. So it is this, we the post-digital people. But if you look under the vision, the eye and experience is about serving your customers differently. The dilemma of smart machines and robots in the wild is about your new products and services in the post-digital environment powered by technology. AI and me is about the new workforce and the age of, or the innovation DNAs about driving continuous innovation in your organization, your culture, as you develop your business into the future. So it really is providing a kind of a complete narrative on what we think the future looks like for executives. Right, good. Still more utopian than dystopian. I like it.  All right, Paul, well thanks again and good luck tonight with the big presentation. Thanks, Jeff. All right, he's Paul. Jeff, you're watching theCUBE. We're at the Accenture Innovation Reveal 2020 when we're going to know everything with the Benefit Eye Insight. Thanks for watching. We'll see you next time.


Hey everybody, it's Katrina from ESU 8 and today I just wanted to make a video to share another high quality resource that will help you embed that inquiry design model into your classroom. So I wanted to show you this website if you're not already familiar with it's called C3teachers.org and it really focuses on inquiry. And across the top this is really great because it gives you some of these other resources so you can go to the inquiry design model. And it really will take you through the structure of an inquiry design model what it does some of the process behind it gives you some different templates to work with. And I will be working with some of these materials at the workshop in December that I sent out and advertised the other day. You can register for that workshop at the ESU 8 website. I'll come back to that here in just a little bit but this is the inquiry design model. And there are some other publications in here so the C3 publications college career and civic readiness frameworks for the social studies standards and using inquiry and social studies to meet those standards. So you can get some information on that making inquiry possible is a great piece. It's got some videos in there that go through why we use inquiry and why we've gone through this instructional shift and how we approach teaching social studies. So that's a little great piece. But what I really want to show you today was the inquiries themselves. And so this is basically a hub where teachers have worked to create inquiries that can be used by other teachers. You can select and filter them by grade level. And you can also select by topic area. And then you can do a search and you can just scroll down these are some of the featured inquiry so you can see here's one for Nebraska by a Nebraska teacher I'm just going to go ahead and click on this. And if you open up this inquiry what's great because there is a consistent format for inquiry design models. It gives you that sort of template but it's on a website so you have your compelling question and how to stage that question. You have supporting questions, then you have those formative tasks that go with those questions. You have the high quality instructional materials used to work with students so they can gather evidence to support any of their claims and their reasoning. And then you have a possible summative performative task that extension for taking action which comes at the end of the inquiries as well as also in here. And I think it's important to know that when you are starting down this journey of inquiry, you do not have to start from scratch there are lots of examples of inquiries out there that you can pick up and just go through them in order to get more comfortable with them you can start with a PDF but also a doc so if you wanted to modify this inquiry you can do that, and that's really great. I wanted to show you this because in December, I will be hosting. If you go to the ESU eight website event registration and scroll down you will see on December 8, I'm hosting a collaborative work day here at ESU eight in inquiry design if you click on that. We're going to focus on these C3 standards but really the goal for that day is for you to walk away with an inquiry that you have designed that you can put into practice in your second semester class. It'd be a great opportunity to collaborate with some other teachers to see what they're doing. And I really want you to be able to walk away with something that's tangible and meaningful for your students, and you can bring with you, maybe a lesson that you currently teach that that's really great. And you want to tweak it to make it fit into this inquiry format, or maybe you have a lesson that it's been a little bit of a struggle with getting students engaged or maybe they're not seeming to retain the information. And we're going to spend time looking at how inquiry can really help us focus our content on that essential essential content and dig in deeper with our students so that they do retain that essential content and change a little bit of the way we look at assessment. But inquiry is really a great instructional shift in social studies, and there's some real power in inquiry to help students really grasp information that maybe they haven't in the past, but it also frees you up to allow students to sort of get in the driver's seat and ask the questions and take on some of that cognitive load. So C three teachers is a really great website that allows you to find some inquiries that are already vetted and published. And if you're just dipping in your toes. This can be a really great way to get started. So I hope you'll take a look at this I hope you'll take a look at some of these other C three materials and inquiry design materials. And you'll maybe take a crack at one of these inquiries if you're kind of dipping your toes in. But I also hope that you will come and register for the inquiry design workshop in December. And we can work together to put together an inquiry that can really be beneficial to your class. Let me know if you have any questions you're always welcome to reach out. And I hope you have a great weekend. Thanks.


back to my channel thanks so much for tuning in for another video in today's video guys I'm going to be doing a product review just to let you know about some products that I purchased here recently and I'm excited to try these products because one they're from my favorite one of my favorite hair care companies which is as I am and I'm a rada da for their co-wash always been a fan of that co-wash I've been rocking with that co-wash forever today so they came out with a new line which is for dry each scalp care and so I got their co-wash and I got their leave-in I didn't get the oil they were actually out of oil and I didn't really need the conditioner because I have the co-wash I was going to get the shampoo but I figured with the months getting colder I prefer to do more co-washers than a shampoo we have gotten into the colder seasons here in Alabama and my scalp my hair gets dried up more so I know I have the hair T but sometimes damp hair wet hair is not a good thing when you're going out in cold weather so I wanted to try some other products just to give some other options for the care of my hair and for my scalp so I wanted to add some additional products into my hair care regimen that can alleviate and will alleviate the itchiness and the dryness of my scalp especially in the colder month excuse me I figured I would get the best of both worlds because I just ran out of the coconut co-wash I needed to get another co-wash and I also want to do something to alleviate this itchiness and this one particular spot on my scalp so what better product to get than a product that one is a co-wash and two alleviates dry itchy scalp so it's kind of no-brainer you know to get this product so let me go ahead and show you the items that I purchased which I did get it Sally beauty and I'll also be sharing with you guys the benefits of what these products claim so first we have the olive and tea tree oil co-wash this product is retailed at 1099 it is a 16 ounce fluid jar the claims of this product states that it fights dry and itchy scalp and dandruff helps prevent itchiness and it hydrates your hair making your curls and cools more manageable as far as the consistency of this product it has a loose running like consistency it has like a creamy pudding like feel to it now as far as the scent of the product the fragrance it doesn't have a sweet minty smell like you think it's more of a medicinal type of a smell because of its scalp treatment properties and the second item I purchased is the olive and tea tree oil leave-in conditioner this product is retailed at 999 right now Sally's does have a bogal offer when you purchase one and get the second one half off the leave-in conditioner is an 8 ounce fluid bottle and the claims of this product states that it fights dry and itchy scalp and dandruff prepares your hair for styling improves manageability of your hair and ease wet combing this product will also add moisture and shine the leave-in conditioner is very creamy has a stringy like consistency to it but it's not sticky or tacky and it also has the same medicinal smell as the kawash so I've been trying different things to try to combat this itchiness and just this one portion of my scavengers right there in the middle is just a constant itch and I even broke out the braid spray to try to spray it in there massage it in like I had braids and that helped a little bit but it I don't know maybe I have to see a doctor to see what's going on with this little patch right here but it is it feels irritated whatever it is so I'm gonna go ahead and try these products see how they work I'm gonna be trying it over a period of time all right so I'm done rambling we're gonna go ahead and jump right into this video so I can try these products so without further ado let's get started it's like getting dark but anyway so I'm done with my hair so just to share with you my thoughts really quickly before I lose any more lighting and my batteries about to die so first and foremost I just want to say I love both of these products they work amazing on my hair I will also say that the product claims are absolutely true as far as the penetration of this product it is definitely low-prosting friendly so upon application of both of these products it was definitely penetrating to my hair now on the coat wash I will say that not only was it penetrating but it was also very soothing on my scalp I did feel the tingle I did feel the soothing of my scalp it was a very cooling sensation on my scalp actually for both of these products but more so with the the coat wash I felt it it just made my hair feel so good throughout the whole process and I just wanted to just keep going and working it through my hair I didn't really want to wash it out really quickly because it just felt so good on my hair and on my scalp so it was definitely you know great distributing the product throughout my hair rinsed it out of my hair was not a problem not like a peppermint type smell it's more like a medicine-y type smell but it's not overbearing it's not like you know just awful it's just a just a very mild medicine type to type smell to it because this is more of a medicated type of a product to help with your itchiness and dryness of your scalp as far as the tangling with this product it was very easy to the tangle with the coat wash I could also easily to tangle with the the leaving conditioner as well so I would highly recommend these products I had no complaints with these products whatsoever but I felt the soothing I felt the tingling I felt the moisture the hydration of the products the tank the tangling the penetration the absorption like all of those things that you look for in your haircare products I felt that so the product claims that it states on their website and on the product and on the product itself I would say are true so yes I'll recommend it yes I will give these products a big thumbs up and yes I will continue to use them I will not be taking them back to Sally's so that's my take on these products I hope you guys enjoy the video I hope you guys enjoy watching my reaction using the products from as I am they are itchy dry scalp care line and I'm gonna have to do some major editing on the lighting of this video because it is getting super super dark and the battery once again is about to die so if you like this video please don't forget to subscribe give a big thumbs up because it does help my channel it's just Janine I will see you guys on the next video bye guys


The St David Awards recognised the remarkable achievements of people from all walks of life in Wales. They celebrate those who make a real difference for this country. An award from Wales to the people of Wales, which is really nice. You know, we have a real sense of pride in our nation, and I think it's a wonderful thing and a really important thing. Ni yn gyfoethog o dalentau yng Nghymru, a byddwn ni'n defnyddio'r pryswun fan i'r hunain o. It's such a privilege to make it this far, and whether I win or lose, I consider it a great achievement. Dallu iddyn nhw'n drwch ymlaen i gweld y bobl ac wrthyn nhw, a hopefully, be inspired. You know, a phenomenal experience. It's very, very pleasing to be here, treated like kings. I'm grateful that people have recognised my work, and I just can't wait to continue changing that and helping other people in the future. I'm so overcome. It's a shopped in order, I think. It's an absolute honour. It's a massive surprise. I'm really proud. It's quite a weedy award. I'm really proud. I'm absolutely delighted. Absolutely delighted. It's an overwhelmed. I'm speechless. I know I won't be able to do it without support from my friends, family and colleagues. Absolutely fantastic. Had a wonderful, wonderful evening, and it's been a great honour to express my welshness and to have won this award. So, they can only really be one winner this year in the sport. The Welsh football team and Chris, of course, as their manager. Chris, great pleasure. It was amazing, fantastic experience. The whole journey, as I said, was enriching and harrowing at the same time. So, to have this award, I feel humbled and grateful. Mae rhaid cydnabod hefyd nad yw yn destun llawennu ddoherwydd amgyrchiadau'r creu a'r tymor hydhad. Mae sy'n ei wedi gasil i'n myneg i'r wyfant o gydymdeu'n lad.

Hi and welcome to the session. Let's work out the following question The question says find the value of x such that pq is equal to qr where the coordinates of pq and rr 6 minus 1, 1, 3 and x8 respectively Let's start with the solution to this question First of all, let the point p equal to 6 minus 1 that is given to us in the question q is 1, 3 and r is x8 therefore pq is equal to square root of 1 minus 6 the whole square plus 3 minus minus 1 the whole square that is equal to square root of minus 5 the whole square plus 4 square this happens because distance between two points x1, y1 and x2, y2 is given by square root of x2 minus x1 the whole square plus y2 minus y1 the whole square This is same as square root of 25 plus 16 and that is equal to square root of 41 and also qr is equal to square root of x minus 1 the whole square plus 8 minus 3 the whole square That is equal to square root of x minus 1 the whole square plus 5 square That is equal to square root of x minus 1 the whole square plus 25 This is given to us in the question that pq is equal to qr, therefore square root of 41 is equal to square root of x minus 1 the whole square plus 25. Now taking squares on both the sides we have 41 is equal to x minus 1 the whole square plus 25 or 41 minus 25 is equal to x minus 1 the whole square or 16 is equal to x minus 1 the whole square. This would imply that x minus 1 is equal to plus minus square root of 16 or x minus 1 is equal to plus minus 4. So we have either x is equal to 4 plus 1 or x is equal to minus 4 plus 1 here x will be equal to 5 and here x will be equal to minus 3. So our answer to this question is x is equal to 5 or minus 3. I hope that you understood the solution and enjoyed the session. Have a good day.


Are there books which are better translated into languages other than the languages they were written in, novels? I think there are. I think probably many which are, let's say, B novels. So pub novels, for example, can often be especially stylistically improved in translation. And you often have so-called literary authors translating crime authors, B-list crime authors. And they do a wonderful job of it. There are also cases where I don't think it's better, but some of the most interesting, the translations that appeal most to me are those of experimental works which basically are not, you can't translate them literally. So the word for word, you don't get the quote. So the translator basically becomes a recreator of the text and takes a new approach. And some of those are wonderful as well.


This paper proposes a new experimental technique to test this theory using a programmable integrated quantum photonic processor to manipulate multiple particles at once. The results suggest that the particles will converge on a maximum entropy state, thus resolving the paradox. This article was authored by F. H. B. Sumhorst, R. Van Der Meer, M. Correa Anguita, and others.


On January 7th, 2019, there's a new version available of PF Sense, which is wonderful. And I always wait a couple of days for I even have time to do a video. We start pushing the updates, and so far all the machines have updated fine, which is good news for you if you want to update it. As always, please back up before you press the update button as it's highly important. And for those of you that are experiencing weird problems, I'd suggest that as well. I refer to our forums you'll see where people have had some weird issues, and it's not hard to reload PF Sense. All the settings get copied into the backup, so download a backup reload if you're having some of those weird issues. Try that first. Anyways, back to the updates. Not any major changes here. So just a few minor things that got updated. It's not like it's a major release upgrade, but I wanted to address a couple little things about the upgrade process and how it works. Now, one of the things I do like, and this has been true since they've updated to the 244 series, do not upgrade packages before you upgrade PF Sense. This is really nice. I know they're actually referring to some of the elder versions, but this applies to this very much, so, and this is nice. I noticed when I logged into some of our PF Sense clients' machines and we're updating them that there were packages up to date, and you're tempted to go click the update on those packages. If there's a PF Sense release upgrade, update that first, and at the same time it will update all the packages, and that has gone really smooth, which has made me really happy. It also saves you a couple clicks. Any time you can save clicks, you're saving time, and time is money, and there we go for that. As far as what got fixed in this hardware support and improvements for NetGate products, yes, I'm aware they have a new firewall they release. No, I don't have one for testing. No, they haven't shipped one out. I did ask, and it doesn't sound like I'm going to get a review unit any time soon, so I will review it when I receive it. I will probably just buy it myself. That's how I've done all of the other products. For those of you wondering, they have never sent me anything for free as of here in January 2019. They've talked about it, you know, full disclosure, but we've never really come to a arrangement. I just really like their product. That's why I do these reviews. I have no direct monetary relationship either by free product or paid marketing from the folks at PF Sense. Also, you can double check this, not listed as a reseller for them, because I am not an official reseller. So, getting a couple of those things out of the way. Hardware support improvements, including probably that new product. Fixed swap slice labeling. They're apparently, and I hadn't seen this as a problem, but there is a definitely a notice on this, and there's a bug affected by it. And by the way, PF Sense is developed in full open source, so you can go through the issues and see what's going on or, you know, report bugs as you find them as well and help contribute to the project. That is not hard to find. Matter of fact, I'll leave a link to this and you can find the bug report and go from there. There is other, some IPv6 stuff. And a lot of people ask me about IPv6. I simply don't use it. So, I just don't have a use case that I can tell you much advice on it. I know some people said they had issues with IPv6 and PF Sense and so on. They're fixing them, which is good, but I don't have a lot of insight into that because of our lack of use of IPv6. Just not something our clients are really having a need for. One of the things they will, there's a couple other things, updated dynamic DNS to contact to accommodate changes in digital ocean, fixed open VPN free radius authentication, fixed input validation, rejected certain hash shell algorithm for the CSR. Nothing major here, but I will talk real quickly about this. Someone brought this up and this was not updated and this was updated previously in the P1. This is the PU update we're talking about today. But yes, I know there have been CVEs in PF Sense, but I want to point out the way most of these CVEs have gone, including this one. When it's PF Sense related, there's difference between the OS it's based on and something specific to PF Sense. This particular CVE was related to a problem with PF Sense. But please note, and this is why I highly recommend you constantly think about what users you allow on your PF Sense box, which is usually none besides yourself. But if you let people have access to the PF Sense, so they had to have an account. They had to have an account that was not admin, but did have delegated specific permissions all outlined here. And those are real vulnerabilities that do need to be fixed. But where your risk factor comes in for some of these is they had to have an account. They had to have a login. You had to have assigned them some privileges. And this is a privilege escalation where if they were assigned to certain level privileges, they could be assigned more. So it's not like a public one, but that's something important about any firewall. One, they're all. I don't know any firewall that doesn't have at least some CVE attached to it, but you have to look at what those CVEs are. Because when you talk about security, you have to think specifically about what those problems are and how they relate to the firewall. So when I talk about other ones having security issues, they had exploits that were not privileged escalation. They had exploits that were allowed a user because of a default configuration on the firewall to escalate an attack without a login. When someone you trust logs in, it's still a major security issue, but you've also delegated trust to someone, someone compromised, maybe that person with a lower level access, and then they have to execute a cross site scripting or whatever the injection was to then cause that problem. And because it's all done in open and full disclosure here, you can kind of follow that process. You can understand and it's done by CVE. This is also one of the reasons I like PF Sense versus certain other one-off firewalls and forks of the project. Everyone asked me about them, but this was found by the TALOS Brandon Schultz of the Cisco TALOS security group. Cisco TALOS is an independent security group. Yes, it's owned by Cisco, so there's beholden to them, but they don't just look at Cisco. They are a great security research team that are poking at major products. That doesn't mean you should never use a minor product or a fork of something, but you got to remember if there's not a big install base of that, they may not spend as much time looking at it. So you have to look at the vetting of it. That's an important aspect for these security. I just want to make sure people are aware of that, and this has been brought to my attention. I get messages on stuff like, hey, did you know they had this arbitrary code? Excuse me, but please note, it started with authenticated arbitrary code execution, which is much less panic because pretty much we have admin access to all of our client ones and ours, and we don't have anyone that we have limited permissions, except for maybe when we hire a new staff member when we set them as a read-only while they're learning something. But for the most part, our staff has admin access, so it's not a direct issue. Glad it was addressed. But those are new features for PF Sense. No major things that make you have to jump out and do it this second. Schedule the downtime accordingly, schedule getting it done, and happy updates. So far, they've all gone fine for me. We've got a listing. Yes, I wish it auto-updated because that comes up all the time, but the other side of it is the nice, controlled update processes. It's really not that hard. We click update, you wait a few minutes, it's done. It's not something that's sucking up so much of my day that it's a big project. All right, thanks.
