Following our very recent contribution of shell API examples to ISPConfig, the effort quickly grew into a full-blown command line tool for ISPConfig. I noticed the functionality we needed and the script we were building were a good fit for creating a proper CLI. With many other users in the community having expressed similar needs, I realized this was a good moment to contribute. The tool was merged to ISPConfig yesterday. We are currently asking for feedback on the tool’s current state and inviting more developers to contribute further functions. Read more “ISPConfig shell CLI by Molnix”

In this blog post, I share a contribution to ISPConfig. We are happy users of ISPConfig and have extended its use to some of our bash scripts. Since there were no readily examples on shell and curl usage out there, we decided to create our own. Read more “ISPConfig bash CLI script for REST API”

The #MeToo campaign and the recent news on sexual misconduct in different organizations opened the lid on a reality that is not often spoken about in the aid community.
It has meant a hit to the reputation and donations to the humanitarian sector and a wake up call to address the failings. In the meantime, there are also many good ideas on how to remedy the situation.
As Molnix is part of this community, the circumstances drives us to ask: How can we help our customers, with our technology, prevent sexual misconduct in deployed staff and at all levels of the organization? Read more “How to Prevent Sexual Misconduct in Disaster Deployed Staff”

Data Protection
As a service provider, Molnix acts as a processor in terms of GDPR. Although we are not carrying out data handling by ourself, Molnix is still deemed to be a processor because we provide cloud services for personnel management.
What are the requirements set for a processor? In this post I will concentrate in the first paragraph of the article 28 of the Regulation. To quote article 28, “the controller shall use only processors providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that processing will meet the requirements of this Regulation and ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.” Read more “GDPR secure personnel management”
