More on Hunters and Butchers


More on Hunters and Butchers 04/09/2004 05:30 PM

In my post on Anti-Phishing Working Group meeting, I said law enforcement agencies need to switch from hunter mode to butcher mode without explaining how.  While I don't know shit about how real cybercrime units operate beyond cop shows on TV, this is what I envisioned:

Operations

Instead of assigning regional cases to individual agents, create a factory line for processing cybercrimes.  The line is divided into phases and each phase has work queues.Each phase has a director and each factory line has a controller.  The line controller works with phase directors to ensure production rate remains high by controlling the number of agents assigned to each phase and routing exceptional cases to a separate unit that specialize in cases that require special handling.

Tools

There are wide array of new technologies that law enforcement agencies can use to 'process' higher number of cybercrime cases.  For example, call-center operation technologies will enable each agents to have all the information readily available when and where they need it.  Social software technologies like wiki can be used by agent to communicate in context of individual cases across phases if each case becomes a wiki.  Workflow technologies combined with appropriate UI technologies will allow case to flow efficiently and intelligently between phases.

By hunters and butchers, I meant the contast between hunters chasing deers and butchers working in factory lines where cows enter at one end and steaks exit at the other.  Obviously job satisfaction is a critical issue but I think there are ways to keep the agents reasonably happy in a factory setting.

Treasure hunter


Treasure hunter 12/22/2004 01:30 AM
David Pescovitz: In the December issue of my favorite print magazine Smithsonian, my old friend/Wired editor Michael Behar has a great article about Robert Graf, a treasure hunter seeking a centuries-old pirate's booty. The multimillion-dollar treasure might be hidden in a stone vault now underwater in the Seychelles. Then again, it might not be.
When I arrive on Mahé, it's easy to spot Graf in the crowd at the airport. He's the only guy wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the classic pirate ensign—a skull and crossbones. Tanned and fit, the treasure hunter seems relaxed—hardly what you'd expect from someone who has spent a third of his life obsessed with a long-dead pirate. Yet Graf is no laid-back islander. He's in-your-face intense right from the start. I'd barely heaved my suitcase into the trunk of his rusty compact car when he launched into a breathless retelling of how he'd voyaged some 10,000 miles from his Colorado home, married a Seychellois hotel reservations manager and spent more than $450,000 of his own money looking for a treasure that others have failed to find here for nearly a century.

David Pescovitz: The Houston Press profiles bounty hunters Jason McKee and Sammie Valero:
Valero looks over the docs and then asks to see the fugitive. "I'm not going to arrest her," he promises. "I just need her to verify all of this."

The boyfriend coaxes the woman into the living room, where she stands with water welling up in her big green eyes.

"Hello," says Valero. "You're under arrest."

"You lying motherfuckers," yells the boyfriend. "Get the hell out of my house. You lied to me."

"I don't have to tell you the truth," says Valero. "I'm not a police officer."

06/24/2004 02:53 AM
Let’s start with Phillip Wagstrom’s deb ut: If you've got something with a Sun logo on it that's not working right, you call me; once again, a window into a world I don’t know. Moving on, David Ogren gives us tasty little bite of blog-propaganda. Jon Haslam shows us how to use the incredibly-advanced features of Solaris to torture tcsh users, but then spoils it by admitting to being a miserably-deluded ksh devotee (Everybody Knows bash is the One True Shell). On the lighter side, Steve Lau calculates the cost of commuting, and Henry Jia survives some tests including “pass through electric grid” and “get treasure from boiled liquid”—with these guys on our side, how can we lose? To end on a serious note, Simon Phipps points to a remarkably beautiful video (watch it more than once) and Alec Muffet reflects on, well, life and how to live it.

Steve Gillmor: BitTorrent and RSS Create Disruptive Revolution. BitTorrent as it is today is not suitable for distributing RSS feeds, because the centralized tracker uses just as much bandwidth as a modern Web server. P2P news delivery is a great concept, but to make BitTorrent suitable for RSS you'd have to make enough changes that you might as well start from scratch. I'm still holding out for Newswire as the solution.
