I’ve got the full meal deal with the dead tree pages, dvds… you name it.  I’m just using the book for now, since I feel I should get some use out of that thing other than a door stop, or something to smack a burglar with.  Though.. if I had a kindle, I’d probably use it. :/  Santa never arrived with one this year heh, maybe ne…

Good links Data_Raid.  I’ll have to go through them.  I actually put my CISSP studies on the back burner for a couple months.  I’m currently getting ready to get Crossfit Certified first, since an opening for the testing opened up back in my home city, which gave me a good excuse to head back to the states for a few da…

Regardless though, good place for tools is insecure.org.  Feodor keeps a good list o…

I didn’t mean that those with English as a second language always have errors or anything

@g00d_4sh: No worries, I didn’t took it the wrong way.  🙂

I was only trying to demonstrate that typos are normal when writting in other langages, but explaining that you want to “hack” people for a company is quite bad…  😛

I suppose in his case, he’s using more youth slang and such rather than grammatical errors, though there were some missing words etc in his sentences which made me assume perhaps an ESL case.  None the less, it did not strike me as the writting of someone who would be given responsibility over the network of any company.

I’m taking him as either a noob (fresh out of highschool, limited admin skills) or non-english speaker.

but a little leery enough to not give him more information on how to do what he’s trying.

Heh, it is a good group Bill.  Shit, thta reminds me.. I am behind on an article they asked me to write on hardware coming from other countries with built in trojans being used as a popular vector for warfare.  You know like the Seagate drive incidents, and various picture frames etc. 

Cool 🙂 Will be looking forward to that on…[Read more]

I use BackTrack 3 when I don’t want a headache.  I use Ubuntu and compile all my tools to get the full ‘experience’.

I really like the idea of this, especially for people new to linux and linux tools.
Run Backtrack to get a quick feel for how tools work, but also compile those tools on a distro with a lot of community support…[Read more]

Enough with the cert pissing contest.   Interesting post on various certs silxp, some of it I agree with some of it I’m clueless about so I have no opinion.  As with anything, I suggest everyone takes anything gleaned online with due precaution and researches it for themselves.  Learning how to learn is the first step to not loo…

It did make for a cool movie bit, but I’m thinking that it looked pretty impossible. Maybe with some advanced…[Read more]

From a Fed standpoint, all we’re doing is getting our boarder routers ready. 

I think that’s about all anyone (in the US) is doing. It’ll be interesting to watch for the next 5 or 10 years  ;D
