How to setup a SFTP server with chrooted users - Christophe Tafani-Dereeper
https://blog.christophetd.fr/how-to-properly-setup-sftp-with-chrooted-users/
I’ll explain in this article how to properly setup a SFTP server with chrooted users being only able to access their own directory, and authenticated by public keys or a password. This is a very useful setup, which can get a bit tricky especially with the permissions. Unlike FTPS which is FTP over TLS, SFTP is a totally different protocol built on top of SSH. This especially means you don’t need any third-party software, since OpenSSH is installed by default on most linux distributions. Directory organization Each user will have his own personal directory which he’ll be able to access.Continue reading... How to setup a SFTP server with chrooted users

The use of a wall of sheep (or WoS) is nice to raise the security awareness of your audience. A WoS is a tool used to demonstrate what can happen when users connect to a wild network without a minimum level of security. The non-encrypted traffic is analyzed and evidence of bad behaviour is displayed publicly

Manually Loading Container Images with containerD - Scott's Weblog - The weblog of an IT pro focusing on cloud computing, Kubernetes, Linux, containers, and networking
https://blog.scottlowe.org/2020/01/25/manually-loading-container-images-with-containerd/
I recently had a need to manually load some container images into a Linux system running containerd (instead of Docker) as the container runtime. I say “manually load some images” because this system was isolated from the Internet, and so simply running a container and having containerd automatically pull the image from an image registry wasn’t going to work. The process for working around the lack of Internet access isn’t difficult, but didn’t seem to be documented anywhere that I could readily find using a general web search. I thought publishing it here may help individuals seeking this information in the future.
