Fascinated by this story that got a lot of attention in July of 2003.
"The government and private technology experts warned Wednesday that hackers plan to attack thousands of Web sites Sunday in a loosely coordinated "contest" that could disrupt Internet traffic." #hacker#hacking#history
Klar sind Hacker schuldig aber auch die Auftraggeber der IT. Ja #Sicherheit kostet Geld und leider nicht nur einmal. Anderseits wird diesbezüglich von Firmen selten Verantwortung übernomen und sich Ausgeredet. Einmal Daten weg, Kunden in Gefahr!
»Bis zu 560 Millionen Betroffene – #Hacker stehlen Kundendaten von #Ticketmaster:
Eine Gruppe namens "ShinyHunters" behauptet, 1,3 Terabyte an #Kundendaten erbeutet zu haben – und will sie nun im #Darknet zum Verkauf anbieten«
Consider you would do promotion for #amateurradio in the #maker / #fablab / #hacker community, or towards youth in a #coderdojo , does it make sense to try to get the local radioclub involved?
Or do you just start a local radio-amateur group inside a #hackerspace or the coderdojo?
Hey #infosec and various old school #hacker types out there. Ages ago I read a tale about a print server that was the source of an intrusion into some system that the author of this tale was trying to secure. In other words, the print server (at some ISP in Australia) had been popped and from there the attacker was getting into other systems. If you were around in the last century and involved in tech and security you might have read this in some zine or blog. A pointer to a copy of this tale would be appreciated, and you will be rewarded in a large quantity of Zorkmids. And if you get the Zorkmids reference, surely you might recall this tale. Boosts appreciated.
This 'numb3rs' episode ("Shadow Market") that is sort of about #hackers and darkweb marketplaces is just too much, too many cringe inducing moments that I want to post.
The episode starts with the feds undercover at a #hacker con called "Pentest".
Leider wird gerne "Der Westen" noch als die #IT-Übermacht gesehen.
»Nordkorea – Wie Kims Elite-#Hacker zum globalen #Sicherheit'sproblem werden: #Nordkorea ist international isoliert und seine Ressourcen sind begrenzt – doch im #Cyber'bereich gehört das Land zur #Weltspitze. Dass selbst westliche Großkonzerne nicht sicher vor Kims Cybersoldaten sind, beweist das Regime immer wieder. Experten warnen, dass die kritische #Infrastruktur westlicher Länder gefährdet ist«
I recently deployed Wireguard, and have a blog post about it. It's more of a "real world" blog post than instructional, but I do enclose details about what I did and how I did it.
This #OpenSource#FlipperZero alternative is looking like a great new tool to tinker with. It's using a #HackBat hat on a #RaspberryPi, it's cheaper, and the source code is available. Anyone on #Fedi make one yet?
Me han compartido este trailer desde #Colombia, donde este mes se va a presentar el primer capítulo de la serie "La Hacker", que pretende mostrar las diferencias entre #hacker y #cracker. Muy interesado en ver esta serie, a ver qué tal...
Hackers, crackers, geeks, hats of any colour, technology enthusiasts, hacktivists, and other like-minded folks are most welcome. We do not judge anyone and everyone has something to contribute, no matter their level of expertise.
Been reading about the case of Edward Austin Singh in the UK, a #hacker who was caught physically trespassing in a Teesside Polytechnic college computer lab, while connected to various #hacked computers, by UK police in 1988. #hacking#history
Still combing through #hacker stories in news archives from 1987 & what the hell is this.
As reported in The Albany Herald in April of 1987, this cop had his #hacking conviction reversed, he'd managed to cyberstalk women in 1984! Unbelievable this was already a thing back then.
Hacker nahmen VW jahrelang ins Visier und stahlen Tausende Dateien
Die Vorfälle liegen schon einige Jahre zurück: Von 2010 an haben Hacker Tausende Dateien der Volkswagen-Gruppe erbeutet. Medienberichten zufolge soll die Spur Richtung China führen.
Il libro “Aggiustare il mondo” di Giovanni #Ziccardi sull’ #hacker Aaron #Swartz rappresenta un ottimo caso di applicazione della licenza #CreativeCommons CC BY-SA: pubblicato dalla nostra casa editrice in formato PDF e EPUB, è disponibile anche su #Wikimedia in formato HTML, un esempio concreto delle possibilità di condivisione e disseminazione offerte dalle pratiche di #OpenScience.
"Come and join likeminded infoseccers talk some cyber and non-cyber stuff. It doesn't matter if you're new to cyber, a veteran, or not in infosec at all – all we ask is you be curious."
