  • When it comes to WiFi Mac’s mobile phones have fudged them for “privacy” for years, if this goes main stream I see the same thing coming in for Bluetooth.

    They promise the macs are random but I don’t have much faith in that.

    Looking up a real Mac to see what manufacturer it came from is something I do almost daily sorting out network issues for customers and really is not difficult. From there it takes a leap to guess what the device is if it’s name doesn’t help but more often than not it’s easy enough to see what’s out there, the random macs of phones stick out like a sore thumb as they don’t come back as anything usually so you can then track that around the network and see what they are up to that way.



  • Thinking out loud but wouldn’t chrome bookmarks for the URLs backed up to a file/account work better than a sheet of it’s just for access?

    As we have mostly Windows based machines we look after everything is in Pulseway or TeamViewer. Routers and misc tend to be on specific ports on their connections IP and we have a shared Keeper repository for passwords and notes.

    The company I work for has been buying other companies and customers like is silly season in the last year so we are digesting all the extra crud that came with it and trying to streamline half a dozen CRM, RM and Monitoring systems at the moment.
