DEFCON 12: Opening day

DEFCON 12: Opening day 07/31/2004 10:29 AM

DEFCON 12, LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- As the Blackhat Briefings were ending on Thursday, people were already gathering a few miles away for DEFCON, the older sibling in this family of security conferences. Not only are both shows put on by the same people, some of the speakers and many of the attendees do both shows as well. DEFCON is the larger of the two, probably twice the size of the Blackhat Briefings. There are other differences: It's less formal, less organized, and it has a lot more 'tude.

Dancing with DEFCON


Dancing with DEFCON 04/16/2005 09:10 PM

I was a technical advisor for a Japanese movie called "The Negotiator" which will be opening here on May 7th. They recently did a press conference with the key stars including Prime Minister Koizumi's son who plays one of the cyber-police. They showed the laptops sporting the stickers that everyone sent me. Thanks again! The title of one of the stories about the press conference is, "The Negotiator Mashita, dancing with DEFCON?" The text is in Japanese, but there are some pictures of the actors and the laptops on display.

If you haven’t heard about DEFCON yet, then you’ve been in a coma for the past couple of weeks. For that few, let me explain. Once a year (or so) a large number of hackers, crackers, security ‘experts’, Feda, and other assorted interested persons get together to talk about the current state of security as it relates to anything digital. And ways to get around that protection. So, it’s hardly a surprise that it generates…

Defcon Wi-Fi shootout results


Defcon Wi-Fi shootout results 08/04/2004 01:47 PM
Wireless tech guru and pal 'o' BoingBoing Frank Keeney sends word of results from the annual WiFi shootout (an event at Defcon that seeks to determine just how far an 802.11 WLAN range can extend). And here are the winners, according to event organizer Dave:
3 teenagers from Ohio used Orinoco Gold 30 milliwatt USB adapters mounted on the feedpoints of two 10 foot dishes, and shot 55.1 miles. Yes, that's fifty-five point one miles! This is a new world's record for an unamplified shot! Complete details will be in a press release, which should come out in the next few days.

DEFCON 12, LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- The week-long Defcon 12 and Blackhat Briefings ended Sunday. Taking center stage in our final report are Google, a video history of bulletin board systems, a healthy dose of "lessons not learned" by our federal bureaucracy, anarchy, and the threat of physical violence. If you missed the earlier reports from these security conferences, you might want to read these: Blackhat Briefings: Forget the borders, guard the goodies, Blackhat Briefings: Hacker Court 2004, Blackhat Briefings: It's the stupidity, stupid, and DefCon 12: Opening Day.

Defcon, the hacker conference in Las Vegas held each year, established what might be a world record in Wi-Fi links: 55.1 miles: I wouldn't want to be standing between (or near) the two points, but it's a great achievement in the best hacker tradition. The winners of the second annual Defcon contest were teenagers--even better! I didn't realize the Guinness Book folks were monitoring these kinds of records; they say the world distance record is 192 miles, but it required a Swedish weather balloon. (Or a weather balloon in Sweden, to sound less kinky.) Let's not forget the Snipe Yagi, a Yagi antenna mounted inside what looks like a rifle with sniper sights....
