+===== New object storage in Brno - 9 June 2023 =====
+In Brno we put into operation one new data storage with a gross capacity of 26 PB. The new object data storage denoted as CL4 was built and installed on the premises of Mendel University in Brno.
+===== Change in SSH access - du4 and du5 - 14. 4. 2023 =====
+With regards to the increasing amount of complex security attacks, we were obliged to perform two major changes in access to the data storages du4 and du5. The changes are related to SSH access (i.e. SCP and rsync). In case you do not use any of the protocols mentioned above you can finish reading here :-).
+What are the changes:
+**1. Login over SSH protocol**
+Login over SSH using username and password will be disabled. Login via SSH will be further allowed only via SSH key or Kerberos ticket.
+**2. Restricting network connections from CESNET Data Storage to Internet**
+The second change is the prohibition of network connection from our data storage in the outward direction (Internet). This change is related to the protection of the internal network of our data storage. It will be impossible to use scp or rsync (running on the data storage) in the outward direction to copy your data. You will need to run the tools from the client side if you wish to download your data.
+In case you were using for logging in username and password (in clients like Filezilla or WinSCP) it will be necessary to setup usage of SSH key pair (see the guides below), you can continue with the following steps:
+  * please check the way of authentication you use and perform the necessary changes in authentication for SSH key (or Kerberos ticket), **FTP and samba protocols are not constrained with the changes** - no action is required
+  * SSH keys should be added to the data storage exclusively via Perun system, see [[:en:navody:perun:pridani_ssh_klice:start|the guide]]
+  * detail documentation for SSH connection and Kerberos can be found [[:en:navody:sshauth:start| here]]
+  * to setup **SCP in Windows** including SSH key you can visit [[https://du.cesnet.cz/en/navody/winscp/start#winscp_scp_using_ssh_key_pair|this guide]]
+Restriction related to the network connection in the outward direction affects only users, which used the commands on the frontend servers.
+Above mentioned changes will come into effect on 19th April 2023.
