Pre-post on "Logging: Day 1"

2008-07-10 15:36:00 by Dr Anton Chuvakin in Anton Chuvakin Blog -
 
Pre-announcing blog content is a shitty idea, in general. However, as I am writing this piece on "Log Management: Day 1" (obviously, inspired by this and this here ), I hear that more and more people are thrust into a situation where my piece will be of huge value, thus this pre-announcement So, if you are given a task to "tackle logs" for your...

Are your digital devices Certified Pre-0wned?

2008-03-17 16:11:45 by Chris Wysopal in Zero in a bit
 
I took part in the L0pht Reunion Panel at the Source Boston conference in Cambridge, MA last Friday. It was a lot of fun to get back together with the band and pontificate with no holds barred about the latest security threats, just like we did in the old days One of the questions asked of the panel by moderator Michael Fitzgerald (who did a...

2008-06-02 10:26:29 by Myrcurial in Liquidmatrix Security Digest
Ive arrived at the Gartner IT Security Summit in lovely Washington, DC. The flight was uneventful (after the intensive security screening and additional measures taken at the gate when departing for Washington National). This year, were being hosted at the Gaylord National Resort - its like a casino-less piece of Vegas right here on the Potomac...

Simulating Email in .NET

2008-08-01 13:59:01 by keith-brown in Security Briefs
I use email as a notification mechanism a lot, and often in class I'll demo sending email via a technique that I use frequently when developing code. It allows you to simulate sending an email message The trick to doing this is not to hardcode things like host, port, etc. for your SMTP server when you use System.Net.Mail to send mail. Instead,...

Phishing Using FasterFox Prefetching

2008-01-03 16:18:15 by RSnake in ha.ckers.org web application security lab
 
I actually had to read this email several times before I got it - paranoia taking over - I thought I was being told my site was hacked. No no, just another interesting way to abuse people that people find when visiting my site. This time, this email comes from Alex who found that pre-fetching can be used to phish users in certain circumstances...

My wife Bonnie and I don't get out to the movies as much as we used to. When we do it is often with the kids, so we miss out on many of the adult (no, I don't mean those kind of adult) themed movies that come out. We wait for the DVD, but even than I miss many. I compensate by watching movies on planes a lot. Recently I caught The Kingdom with...

What Does SHA1 is Broken Mean?

2007-12-12 07:35:00 by Eric Marvets in The Security Samurai
 
For those of you Slashdot readers out there, you may have heard by now that SHA1 is broken. Recently I did some security videos for Microsoft, and decided that SHA1 was the best hash function for the example (modifying an existing application to store hashed passwords The videos I did were part of the How Do I series, and not exactly the place...

A new world order of computing - an analogy of Microsoft and the US

2008-02-19 00:24:05 by HASH0x8baa6ec in StillSecure, After All These Years
 
A couple of weeks ago Parag Khanna had an article in the NY Sunday Times Magazine called " Waving Goodbye to Hegemony ". I thought this was one of the most important and enlightening articles I have read in years. For me it crystallized up my own thoughts about what is going on in the crazy world we all live in. The gist of the article is that...
