The Economist as a "security guru",
Bruce Schneier is a well known security analyst who has gained
notoriety from his popular security mailing list, Cryptogram, and his
3 books on various security subjects.
Bruce was kind enough to take the time to have a chat with Neowin,
talking about himself, security, Microsoft, and much more. Bruce also
talks about how to stay safe on the internet, program security, and
gives some views on Microsoft's Service Pack 2 for Windows XP, making
for interesting reading!

Xeni Jardin:
A pair of thought-provoking op-ed pieces from
Bruce Schneier, who says,
This New Haven Register piece looks at the security and privacy issues
surrounding a police "gun" that automatically scans licence plates.
It's an example of "wholesale surveillance" -- something only possible
with modern computer technology -- and as such requires new thinking
about privacy protection. Link
This San Jose Mercury News essay discusses how the tighter U.S.
immigration policies affect foreign students and professors at U.S.
universities, and how that in turn affects security. The more we
isolate U.S. academia from the rest of the world, the more
technological progress suffers. Link

there are only a few things I can add. For those who haven’t
been following along, ChoicePoint mistakenly sold personal credit
reports for about 145,000 Americans to criminals. This story would
have never been made public if it were not for SB 1386, a California
law requiring companies to notify California residents if any of a
specific set of personal information is leaked….

Worm is a scary piece of malware
06/08/2004 05:02 PMBruce Schneier of Counterpane
Security explains why the Witty Worm is so awful.
Witty was very well written. It was less
than 700 bytes long. It used a random-number generator to spread
itself, avoiding many of the problems that plagued previous worms. It
spread by sending itself to random IP addresses with random
destination ports, a trick that made it easier to sneak through
firewalls. It was -- and this is a very big deal -- bug-free. This
strongly implies that the worm was tested before release.
Witty was exceptionally nasty. It was the first
widespread worm that destroyed the hosts it infected. And it did so
cleverly. Its malicious payload, erasing data on random accessible
drives in random 64KB chunks, caused immediate damage without
significantly slowing the worm's spread.

01/04/2005 02:40 AMCory Doctorow:
Bruce Sterling is conducting his annual "state of the world" interview
on the WELL's public "Inkwell" conference -- you can read along and
send questions to Jon Lebkowsky, the moderator, for Bruce to answer.
Well, for two years I've been trying to write a science fiction novel
about "ubiquitous computation." However, I'm now so close to
my material that, when I went to lecture about it, I got asked
to join the faculty of a design school.
It's not like I get tenure, mind you. I'm merely guest-artist
for a year, or, as they like to put it at my new alma mater,
Art Center College of Design, I'm "Provocateur-in-Residence."
But I get a salary, and, more to the point, I get to play
in the prototype lab.
I could have said, "No, I've got to finish sci-fi novel
number umpteen here," but, gee whiz, if they're asking,
why not go? ACCD is one of the world's most-famed
design schools, and justly so. I was flattered.
I was in residence for a couple of weeks at Cranbrook
School of Design back in the early 90s, and I wrote
the outline and proposal for my novel HOLY FIRE there.
That turned out to be one of my better books.
So, y'know, I'll do it. What the hey.

06/24/2004 09:39 AMBruce Schneier's just published a fantastic editorial about how
expanded police powers make us less secure:
The United States is admired throughout the world because of our
freedoms and our liberties. The very rights that are being discussed
within the halls of the Supreme Court are the rights that keep us all
safe and secure. The more our fight against terrorism is conducted
within the confines of law, the more it gives consideration to the
principles of fair and open trial, due process and "innocent until
proven guilty," the safer we all are.
Unchecked police and military power is a security threat -- just as
important a threat as unchecked terrorism. There is no reason to
sacrifice the former to obtain the latter, and there are very good
reasons not to.

Expert Tips for Finding Security Defects
in Your Code
10/31/2003 12:37 AMReviewing code for security defects is a key ingredient in the
software creation process, ranking alongside planning, design, and
testing. Here the author reflects over his years of code security
reviews to identify patterns and best practices that all developers
can follow when tracking down potential security loopholes. The
process begins by examining the environment the code runs in,
considering the roles of the users who will run it, and studying the
history of any security issues the code may have had. After gaining an
understanding of these background issues, specific vulnerabilities can
be hunted down, including SQL injection attacks, cross-site scripting,
and buffer overruns. In addition, certain red flags, such as variable
names like "password", "secret," and other obvious but common security
blunders, can be searched for and remedied.

RNC protests predicted by Bruce Sterling

08/28/2004 03:27 PM
Cory Doctorow:
Jonah sez, "I've written an essay that compares the planned RNC
actions, technologies and protests next week to the Wende in Bruce
Sterling's short story 'Deep Eddy' and the Wende period of the falling
of the berlin wall. It's also a piece that speculates whether the
actions and technologies employed in the streets will produce any
results. Just thought you and your readers might be interested."
And so the stage has been set. Hundreds of thousands and perhaps
millions will be arriving in a city full of citizens already hostile
to the political party that has chosen to hold it’s National
Convention in their city for reasons of emotional manipulation. The
police and city officials have set up a number of strenuous and overly
aggressive methods of control.
That this event will be anything less than similar to Sterling’s
description of the Wende is doubtful. At the very least a very large
number of protestors will participate in one of the most varied, vocal
and interesting political protests in American history. At the most
extreme, the massive disturbance will awaken a number of American
citizens to what the Bush administration is really up to and set off a
sequence of events that will alter our political landscape.

tired. Much has been made of his

ideological conversion, but there's a case to be made he's just
showing true colors dating back to his SNL days. At least back then,
this ranter says, he was willing to take on any authority figure,
without fear or favor. But now he seems to be a lapdog of the power
structure, a
"Lenny

the guy, maybe because it's still a little flattering to understand
his references in this dumb-o-centric age. But he scares me a little,

reason: Blogging seems to have taken a place in the culture that used
to be occupied by fanzines, and maybe by the science fiction
magazines.
Sterling: It had its apotheosis in people like Cory Doctorow [author
of Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom] and other writers who really
aren’t that interested in the old paper world. Cory actually
publishes stuff electronically, and blogging is his Weird Tales. He is
of a generation sufficiently divorced from the old pulps that he’s

Lenny Bruce CD retrospective
09/22/2004 12:04 PM
Xeni Jardin:
Newsweek's Brian Braiker writes about a newly released
collection of work by comic legend Lenny Bruce.
If a comic gets onstage and tells his audience "I am not a comedian,"
he'd better say something important -- or really damn funny. Lenny
Bruce -- the hepcat who took his act from L.A. strip clubs to Carnegie
Hall, redefining stand-up in the process -- did both. Now, nearly 40
years after a fatal drug overdose, a dizzyingly complete six-CD
collection of his trailblazing routines has been released.
"Lenny Bruce: Let the Buyer Beware" spans his career from his
promising first performance in 1948 to the ravings of a haunted,
hunted man the day before his death in 1966. The warts-and-all
portrait includes hours of previously unreleased material and
chronicles Bruce as he tilts against hypocrisy ("Censorship on the
Steve Allen Show"), racism ("How to Relax Your Colored Friends at
Parties") and religion ("Religions, Inc.").
