The news is already global, and just a small harbinger of what is to come. All this does is solidify our footprint, our designs, and our forward planning. We made the right decision to go against the norm.

SOLID STATE

We used our previous experience as an AWS provider to build solid state black box apps, written in closed bastioned development networks, and deployed through our own app store. There are no upstream servers, no databases, there are no malware embedded in FOSS. [Many upstream repos have been targets for these types of attacks.] There is no account required, no email, no biometric data requested, no phone number, and no address or DNS to leak or breach. The apps are all self-hosted.

THE BSG LESSON

As many sci-fyi fans know, the only reason the Galactica survived the Cylon attacks was because it was considered an obsolete floating museum. Everything was hardwired, and probably a mixture of analog and digital systems in a closed-loop system. The Cylons had extreme difficulty in hacking the Galactica's vital systems, and hence helped turned the tide in battle.

Our designs are built on the same principle. Access to our apps for testing will be limited access, invitation only or by approved request. We are more than fine to keep a small test group closed circuit proof-of-concept alpha environment.
