Thoughts on Super Tuesday

2008-02-06 06:44:05 by HASH0x8bc5b54 in StillSecure, After All These Years
Since I chimed in on Super Bowl Sunday, let me press my luck and talk about the primaries of Super Tuesday. I stayed up late tonight switching between CNN and Fox News to really get a "fair and balanced" view of what was going on. I must say that in all of the years I have been watching presidential races (and the first one I remember was '68),...

Michael Vick's journey from the NFL to a jail cell

2007-12-11 03:13:00 by John Sexton in The Bullet Proof Blog
I watched CNN this morning as they announced that Michael Vick had been sentenced to 23 months incarceration for his part in organizing illegal dog fighting and animal abuse. I have never been a star quarterback so I do not know how it feels to go from being a NFL superstar to a Felon, but I bet it can't be easy There's not much upside to this...

Monthly Blog Round-Up - March 2008

2008-04-02 14:36:00 by Dr Anton Chuvakin in Anton Chuvakin Blog -
 
I saw this idea of a monthly blog round-up and I liked it. In general, blogs are a bit "stateless" and a lot of good content gets lost since many people, sadly, only pay attention to what they see today So, here is my next monthly "Security Warrior" blog round-up of top 5 popular posts and topics This month my logging polls are super-hot:...

The Governments Top Hackers?

2008-07-01 18:40:47 by Chris Eng in Zero in a bit
 
Popular Mechanics recently published an article about the NSA Red Team , which caught my interest, having been a part of that organization for a short stint back in early 2000. The article does a decent job of describing the Red Teams charter, which is essentially to attack DOD targets in an attempt to simulate real adversaries, not unlike a...

Why would anyone use standard WEP? Isn't it super easy to crack & sniff?

2007-01-19 16:01:12 by Editor in Endpoint Security: Translating Policy Into Reality
 
Using standard WEP is akin to using a pad-lock & chain for securing a bicycle. It keeps the honest people honest. The argument given that WEP is so weak that it's not worth using, isn't completely valid. Using the bike analogy, would you stop using a lock & chain simply because anyone with a set of bolt cutters can defeat them in a second?...

Heroes, the (Fall TV) Legacy

2007-09-25 00:00:26 by jrjones in Jeff Jones Security Blog
I was a big fan of Heroes last year and, to my surprise, it was a big hit even outside of the sci-fi, superhero, geek space. The combination of the good stories, the new revelations each week and the soap-opera-like connections between the different characters appeared to a bit wider audience than might've been expected As Season 2 kicks off...
