What do you all think the chances of this guy picking up where he left off are?

Personally I think very slim. If that was me and I'd been given a punishment like that I'd be back out doing more illegal stuff than ever. After all, what's the harm?

Both of those are pretty big reasons for me, personally....#2 more than #1, but still....
Agree 100%, just had some 'run-ins' with the criminal element of society thhis week which I think left me a bit jaded. Hopefully the usually jolly, law-abiding me will resurface shortly Smiley

Dale,

meant to reply to this sooner, just had a bad couple of weeks so I've been out of it for a while.

So first question to everything on EH-NET, any ideas for a name for a UK Con, I cant offer a prize, but I can offer thanks for all input. I thought BritCon, but not sure if it has the right ring, not original enough etc.

guess you've seen my previous ideas here? Should be obvious I'm not going to be much help in this area Wink

Next is, to those members on here in the UK would you be interested, and do think think Birmingham would be a good central location.
Hell yeah Cheesy Been thinking of trying the same thing once I've managed to shift some of my workload. Birmingham seems fairly central, so should be fairly accessible to most of us in the UK. Not sure how good the transport/airlines are around that part of the country for potential international attendees though, could be worth considering. Personally I'd head anywhere in the UK for a decent conference, outside of M25 would be preferable to try and keep accomadation costs etc. down.

Hopefully life should get back normal and get me fully back in the game. I'll try to hit you up next week.

Just read this over at Dark Reading. Subject says it all.

Why do I work 60+ hour weeks trying to be one of the good guys?

Here was an email handed out by CORE... it has links and info for all 3 of Ed's Pen-testing Ninjitsu presentations, all in once place Smiley ...

Cheers for the links BillV,

saves me hunting through my old emails for some bank holiday weekend fun

Simon,

great post, I'm with Chris in that it's going to take a while to digest everything as most of what you discuss is fairly new to me (and I'm late to the web app game as a whole).

Really interesting read.

Think I read something about this a while back (possibly on ec-council' site). Assuming my memory is working this early in the morning that plan was to use the pool of C|EH certified techies as resources to deal with local issues in their area as a consultancy/contract type basis. I can't find anything about this in the linked page so they may have changed their minds and gone internal.

Does anyone have any more info regarding this? Specifically I'd be interested to know the terms being offered to those accredited, may memory recalls something about being available to do the work is a requirement of staying accredited, but I could have dreamt that part.

Hopefully someone can aid my poor and confused memory as I can't find my original source.

I have a 22 air rifel so im going to shoot it next time I see someone connected.

Dude......CHILL!

try that and you will be getting arrested. And nothing to do with your 1337 skillz.

Please tell me you're not serious

Must be delivery day in the UK Smiley

haven't had a chance to watch all of this yet, so far looks fairly cool.

HOWEVER, I just hit the pause button and ran upstairs (easier said than done with a sprained ankle) about five minutes in a bunch of hackers are explaining why hackers are great (slightly biased views but hey....) and there is a screen shot of someone scrolling through the Ethicalhacker.net forums Cheesy

I'm with Dale, need some good conferences in the UK...
  • U. King Con?
  • Con England?
  • BritFest?
  • ....
(I'm starting to think there are no UK cons cause you it's impossible to come up with a decent name Wink )

Time to try what is supposed to be the more private google - www.cuil.com

Cheers Dale, I haven't seen cuil before so I'll take a look. Although the fact that their privacy statement claims that thy don't track you by cookie and then explain why they need cookies to track your preference I think I might do a bit of digging into the cookie contents before I trust them completely (as I'm generally more paranoid than the next security guy Wink )

Tool bars "are the devil" as I say.  I stick to Opera as my browser...
added to list of possible replacements, cheers for the tip...

I think I have an older (free) version of that tool laying around somewhere if you want it. As far as I know it still does the job.
If you've got a free version handy I'd appreciate a look-see to figure out how it ticks, no biggy if you can't find it, wouldn't want to put you out.

Cheers for the assistance guys.

Eager,

I would highly suggest taking Bill and Kev's advice, you have no idea what the other party could be doing with your connection.

Besides the fun has already been had before (upside-down-ternet)

I'd suggest re-configuring your device and having a laugh at someone elses story. You still get a laugh with none of the potential risks.

Second, could it be the standard google tracking cookie that G-Zapper is meant to block?

I haven't come across gzapper before, looking through the site I think you may have hit the nail on the head. The bit that throw me was that I wasn't using google at the time (and hadn't in the current firefox session) so I'm assuming that this is linked through from the integrated search bar.

Panic over (although I may go looking for a new browser....)

Cheers BillV

Hi all,

I've just come across an interesting (to me anyway) discovery and was wondering if anyone had more information before I stick myself head-first in to my web traffic.

The scenario,

I'm coding a new version of an old web-based app (wanted to be a developer before I saw the light, now I'm responsible for my old apps...). I'm running TamperData under Firefox 3 to fake some of my input to see how the system responds. Up pops a post request I wasn't expecting passing a cookie ID to static.cache.l.google.com.

Now I can't find the referenced cookie on my system to see what info is held, likewise I can't find any information on the web (in hindsight using Google may not be the smartest move I've made today). This request has only been sent once so I can't determine how regularly I am/have been providing this info to Google but it has me slightly miffed. I'm sure that this would have been mentioned in the extensive and readable license agreement I read thoroughly before signing my life away agreeing to the conditions.  Roll Eyes

If anyone has any info or knowledge of this I'd be interested to here from you, might save me a few hours that could be put to more productive use (Like Lego Star Wars......)

Thanks in advance,
RR

I think he was referring to this crap

Yup, that looks familiar Cry

I'm not sure whether any nation state is fully prepared for a 'cyber-war', but I'm also not sure if anyone is yet capable of a full cyber-war. Could be the next space race....

An interesting counter-point to the recent cyber-war stories is a recent ISC diary (here)

(p.s. Due to the contains of my junk email folder I was expecting a completely different post due to the topic title)
