Computer magazine articles
Hack Mag / «Хакер»
The Hacker Magazine («Хакер» in Russian) is the oldest Russian magazine on information security. Since ca. 2015 it’s only published online, but back in my high school days our group of nerds used to subscribe to the paper version.
Articles in the Hacker Magazine (in Russian): xakep.ru/author/dmbaturin.
Articles in HackMag, the English version of it: hackmag.com/author/daniilbaturin.
Note: Articles in the English version are translations from Russian made by the magazine staff. I’m not responsible for translation quality of accuracy!
Linux Format
Simpler firewalls with IPset
Published in the issue 193 (January 2015).
Available to subscribers. Walks the reader through configuration of IPset, a tool that allows using groups of hosts, networks, and ports in iptables rules.
These days, nftables offers native support for sets, so that article is largely obsolete.
