Hola, I'm prime anarchist, and this is my 'zine
|
|
for the weekend of May 11, 2001. Anyone think
|
|
to check what day the next "lunar event" is?
|
|
I didn't bother. Busy and distracted I guess.
|
|
Hope it's close. If not, oh well. Next time.
|
|
Rather than write a column this week, I've
|
|
decided to let a former political prisoner
|
|
take it over. One who AI didn't pay an awful
|
|
lot of mind, because they just kinda didn't
|
|
understand the whole thing very well.

MY 1ST RSA CON
|
|
By Kevin Mitnick,
|
|
REprinted from SecurityFocus.com
|
|
|
|
The annual RSA Conference is noted for being the
|
|
largest data security and cryptography conference
|
|
in the world. It's the place the most respected
|
|
cryptographers and security professionals in the
|
|
industry gather to share their knowledge and
|
|
experience. But I still found it incomplete.
|
|
The 2001 conference, held earlier this month
|
|
in San Francisco, was my first RSA -- I was there
|
|
as a guest of the fine security vendor Authentify,
|
|
Inc. My first impression of the conference was
|
|
made at the opening session, where rocker Pat
|
|
Benatar (hi Terry) belted out a live parody of
|
|
her hit song "Heartbreaker." The title of the
|
|
new song: "Codebreaker."
|
|
|
|
You're a Codebreaker
|
|
Crash Maker, File Taker
|
|
Don't you mess around with me...
|
|
|
|
Aside from the entertainment value, I was impressed
|
|
with the sheer size of the conference. It's clear
|
|
that the last six years have seen tremendous growth
|
|
in the information security space. Literally. There
|
|
were over 10,000 registered attendees, and Moscone
|
|
Center's cavernous exhibit halls became a dizzying
|
|
250-ring circus featuring seemingly every security
|
|
act in Creation, from Acotec to ZixIt.
|
|
Having once been banned from the 1991 DECUS CON
|
|
in Las Vegas solely based on my reputation as a
|
|
hacker (and my forays into DEC's Easynet), I know
|
|
the feeling of being unwelcome. So I was pleasantly
|
|
surprised to find most of the attendees friendly and
|
|
respectful. It was good to reintegrate myself back
|
|
into the computer security business without much
|
|
resistance. No one thought to ask me what I was
|
|
doing there while walking around with no badge.
|
|
A lot of attendees didn't even recognize me.
|
|
While waiting for a session on computer viruses
|
|
to begin, I was listening to a conversation between
|
|
two men seated next to me. When I glanced down at
|
|
one person's badge, it said "FBI, Special Agent"
|
|
right below the name. It was amusing for me to end
|
|
up eavesdropping on a couple of FBI agents who were
|
|
clueless to my identity. Or were they?
|
|
{--=____The Bold and the Badgeless____=--}
|
|
But when all is said and done, there was something
|
|
missing from the conference. No sessions were offered
|
|
covering physical attacks or social engineering. You
|
|
could spend a fortune purchasing technology and services
|
|
from every exhibitor, speaker and sponsor at the RSA
|
|
Conference, and your network infrastructure could still
|
|
remain vulnerable to old-fashioned manipulation.
|
|
The world's largest security conference should have
|
|
offered a session that discussed these types of attacks,
|
|
if nothing more than to raise awareness.
|
|
For the most prestigious security conference in the
|
|
world, I was also surprised by the lack of physical
|
|
security for the exhibit hall itself. While waiting
|
|
for my contact person to arrive, I decided to take a
|
|
stroll to locate Authentify's booth. The hall was
|
|
closed to everyone, with the exception of staff
|
|
setting up the exhibits. Although I was wearing
|
|
no form of identification (such as a exhibitor's
|
|
badge), I managed to gain access into the exhibit
|
|
hall on two occasions without being questioned. I
|
|
walked around for a good half hour before even
|
|
locating the booth.
|
|
No one thought to ask me what I was doing there
|
|
while walking around with no badge. Anyone else
|
|
could have walked off with an executive's laptop
|
|
or PDA without being noticed. You would think with
|
|
tens of thousands of dollars worth of computer
|
|
equipment and technology lying around, and the
|
|
nature of the conference itself, that the exhibit
|
|
hall wouldn't have been so vulnerable.
|
|
What new security technologies will be marketed
|
|
as the killer-app at next year's RSA Conference?
|
|
This year, deployment of public key infrastructures
|
|
(PKI) dominated the scene. But while PKI technology
|
|
may reduce the risk of hacker attacks, it's not a
|
|
silver bullet. If your goal is to protect your
|
|
network, you can not rely on technology alone.

Yeah, I've noticed your ATI's contain

you should set up a little e-zine that makes a

on the www.indymedia.org newswire, and pub it as a

feature.

that way, people like me can read the newswire,

and not have to ignore it for lack of time allotted

0P-3D: Our OP-ED Section. 1 ea.
|
|
|
|
A Black Male journalist on a commercial television
|
|
news show interviews a white woman from Harvard
|
|
Business School, I think it was discussing the
|
|
new ethic on salaries based on, her book titled
|
|
"Salaries Not Secrets." (I think that's the title,
|
|
I should have had a notepad with me while I watched
|
|
I guess. But this story quickly and suddenly blew my
|
|
mind and then it was over, just like that. I'll try
|
|
to look it all up for you later. Right now I'm too
|
|
distracted.)
|
|
With the ability of someone to get in and then
|
|
email a corporation's salaries to each other, what
|
|
could happen.
|
|
She discusses that some companies are building
|
|
an ethic where salaries are given based directly
|
|
on their performance, and they're so proud of the
|
|
salaries, they'll openly display them
|
|
everywhere, "radically honest."
|
|
This, she says undermines any possibility of
|
|
hackers wreaking havoc.
|
|
Other companies aren't so proud, though. She
|
|
says there are companies out there who are paying
|
|
quite, well; "less than equitably" is how she
|
|
describes the paying out of different salaries to
|
|
various employees who are perhaps fulfilling the
|
|
same exact tasks.
|
|
These companies, she says are beginning to see
|
|
the new info-age as a threat to their very essence.
|
|
I must say, I got a lot out of that story. Even
|
|
though I've lost track of even what network ran it
|
|
(I do that a lot these days, they kind of melt
|
|
together like a nitemare.) I enjoyed the interview.
|
|
Now I have to end by adding, though; that I would
|
|
have thought much more highly of the whole thing
|
|
(to be frank, his color and her gender had me
|
|
distracted in that I kept going back to "statistics
|
|
say she gets 3/4 what a white male gets; he gets n/8
|
|
what a white male gets; stats say she gets 3...")
|
|
Woops, run-on sentence. The TV channel would've had
|
|
more credibility with me if at some point during the
|
|
interview he'd asked her, "and what's your pay?" to
|
|
which she might retort with "n/year or x/hour, and
|
|
you?"
