Windows XP is a HUGE security risk

[razgriz19]

If its not connected to the internet, its fine. They just need a OS, simpler the better

 

[Zhukov]

Russia has banned all product from Companies

Microsoft
iPHONE

-------------------------------------------------------
Yahoo
Google
Facebook (Data stealing Feedeer System)

As these companies allow backdoor ...acess thru security

They further use software written in Russian Language to prevent any Hack
They have a internal policy , "трахни тебя, США"

Russians are always 1 Step ahead of game


It is no wonder systems like S300- or S400 are unhackable

Since when did softwares started to be written in human languages?

Bumping this thread because of new developments. The entire source code for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 has been released online:

/g/ - >>The Windows XP source code was leaked online tod - Technology - 4chan

>>The Windows XP source code was leaked online today. Old thread reached Max bump limit. - "/g/ - Technology" is 4chan's imageboard for discussing computer hardware and software, programming, and general technology.

This means hackers, especially state sponsored hackers, will now know every single exploit there is to be known about these operating systems. As a matter of fact, state sponsored hackers SHOULD have had access to this source code for years now. It is absolutely amateurish to keep using an operating system that is well known for architectural level security problems.

Window XP biggest drawback is
Blue Screen Error

This is why you use Mac

Ideal situation is to do what Russia/China do

• Invest in a Indigenous , Operating System

The advantage of this is that code is written 100% locally and written 100% with security in mind so it can't be hacked easily by enemy foreign powers

Russians even write code in their own Russian Language making it further hack proof

All Windows products have "Backdoors" for Microsoft to activate and examine problems in code , they also have processes which sent back information to external servers

Buraq control centre

Yes, but it is a "closed system" with no outside interaction, nor is it connected to the internet directly, so in that use case, it is safe ..."

Malware , and other Viruses are written with products like USB which is compromised to be spread in local networks where it searches for particular Operating systems installed in Local system

Connection to internet is not always needed to compromise systems

"Windows" all generation are generally a risk in Military Setup

• Windows
• Google
• Amazon
• Apple

Foreign agencies routinely make requests to these companies to make custom adjustments for purpose of spying

Apple tries to close device loopholes allowing agencies to spy

Apple announced on Wednesday that it would 'rapidly address' any security gaps after it was revealed that loopholes could allow the CIA to spy on smartphone and 'smart TV' users.

Don't worry because the Armed Forces use windows xp on very old PCs. Even if a virus makes its way into the PC, there will be not enough RAM on the PC in order for the virus to execute the script. So yeah, jokes on you Israel and USA.

Except if they are using a custom build created after a thorough review of source code provided by Microsoft, I cannot believe Pakistan's main defence system has this junk operating system as even a tiny component:

Our armed forces should invest in creating a custom Linux distribution, where every line of source code in the kernel is thoroughly reviewed and use that as the base for all critical systems, AT LEAST.

@Horus @WebMaster @The Eagle

Well, this is the end user system on which some firmware is running. Do you know how many layers of hardware and software firewalls, VPNs, TOR tunnels in front of this particular machine? Such systems can be compromised only if there is a traitor among PAF else it is next to impossible to penetrate military grade networks. You are assuming things by looking one terminal only. Heck, we don't even now if this system is even online or a part of some DMZ of a sub-net of entire PAF network.

 

[Irfan Baloch]

I mean if they don't see the American SEAL choppers on these screens, they only have themselves to blame. These computers should be considered compromised.



If some key decision maker has ignored the threat, he should be considered a traitor and thoroughly investigated by ISI.

you worry for no reason

see our babus setup smart sounding center. the building and furniture is plush too. I am not sure about Windows version on their computers to watch youtube or twitter though

We love to ban things initially or call them haram and later realize our stupidity. Few years ago youtube was haram now every molana is using them and making money. Same thing today, games and esports and tiktok and bitcoin is being threatened with bans. A decade or 2 later when new gen grows up...
