So I've got a few systems where parsec is installed and I can't uninstall it. Has anyone come across this? The only reason I know it's installed is by running a script that scans for RAT's. I can't find it anywhere else so it could be a false positive but it's a very strange one. Curious if anyone knows of bad actors using it like the other remote access software scammers use. The only difference is these are computers where no scammer has accessed via their usual phishing means.

Arkansas City, a small city in Cowley County, Kansas, was forced to switch its water treatment facility to manual operations over the weekend to contain a cyberattack detected on Sunday morning.

Many IOT devices, including local devices like printers, streaming boxes, cameras etc. may be outdated.

Those may use Wifi but only support WPA2, which can be easily cracked using Kali Linux, a kernel module integrated in Kali, and aircrack.

Many of these devices have an Ethernet or at least USB jack. Ethernet will always work, USB over usb-tethering should work often.

Couldnt you just use a tiny sbc, with a wifi antenna and support for WPA3, and serve the connection via Ethernet or USB to the device?

Like a small plug-in adapter.

Should be rock stable and update atomically and automatically (waiting for you, CentOS bootc, Alma bootc, Rockylinux bootc).

Do you know if this exists or have some caveats in mind?
