its the same thing on a larger scale. better known as honeynets which are made of honeypots. these are just smart honeypots that are linked together. TrapX makes a neat product thatll even replicate PLC equipment and generate bogus event log things so it looks real enough.
The first virus was written on punch cards in 1968. The internet didn't even exist as we know it today, it was a connection between universities and military so that data could be quickly shared. A collage kid wrote it to see what would happen. And he also wrote the first virus protection program.
I have for years thought that engine computers at least could alter the spark timing to cause occasional extremely early ignition (and very high cylinder pressure) leading to early mechanical failure. My suspicion dates back to a 1976 Pontiac. At about 6 years of age it began pinging when it had not before. It pinged but with no seeming pattern, and not even 100 octane racing fuel stopped the pinging. We replaced the ignition module, the coil, cap and rotor, all the wires and plugs without any impact. Carbon deposits were the next suspect, but when we pulled the heads it was clean. We did a valve job and installed new springs and vatted the intake manifold. When we put it back together and drove it, the pinging was gone. Then we realized we left the plug that sets the ignition timing to base unplugged, and wouldn't you know it, the pinging came back. We wound up installing a stand-alone MSD system that just used mechanical and vacuum advance. That worked and got better mileage and better acceleration, though both were still awful. It was a 1976 Pontiac 455 (with a pavement-shattering 160hp LoL) after all, but it was still going at about 300k when I lost track of it. Not many '76 engines of any make or model made it much past 100k.
More mechanics and less digital technology and people will not be able to hack or spy on it, but the future is unfortunately 0% mechanic and 100% digital technology. That's why I always hated these new mobile phones.
yeah idk, I feel like he uses the "licence to kill" in comparison with the "ally" that james bond has today, which is a fake agent that does the job but doesn't reveal actual information - like he explain right before with shadow networks or whatever
I guess it’s more his way to say that they are also allowed to engage on the networks which are collecting data from their honeypot/ shadow network. I didn’t do research on this guy, but he seems to have pretty good inside in offensive hacking strategies of the past decade. so why are you thinking his company just uses this defensiv mechanisms he showed during the talk
The only way to be 100% sure is to have a physically isolated network. I had a customer that insisted on it. They had two computers on each desk: one was connected to the Internet, and the other was connected to the LAN and server with the ERP system. All USB ports were disabled, and of course, end users were not 'Admins', lol. They never had a problem w the isolated system. Imagine that.
yep. Got that since 2000. 20+ yrs of peace and I'll be dead before they find a way of getting around that 🖕. Meanwhile my son, who grew up with that system, has become a hacker - of course.
What also works instead of espionage? Diplomacy. Sometimes trust is worth more than having a thousand missiles or viruses. But we are taught to defeat the enemy, not befriend him.
Never seen people get to upset over someone giving them information. I mean seriously, would you rather be in the dark and blind our whole life? He’s not pushing opinions onto you. He’s simply giving you facts and information. Do with it what you will.
"Has technology made our lives better or worse." I would argue that it has made our lives just slightly better. There is still poverty, depression, wars, and now an online mob. Do we really want this technology even more in our lives?
The speaker gets a lot wrong and the sloppiness makes me doubt much more. For example, the Melissa/ILoveYou worm of May 2000 was not, as he claimed, the first case of SPAM. First, the first case of SPAM was in 1978 although the term wasn't coined until the mid-1990s. Second, although Melissa used email to spread, it wasn't SPAM. Another example, the Code Red worm hit in mid-July 2001, not after 9/11. A quick consultation with Wikipedia would have revealed these errors. And as others have noted below, his "shadow networks" are collections of "honeypots". Honeypots arose in the 1990s, although I don't know when the threshold was crossed of being populated with enough data to warrant that term. In 2000, there was at least one commercial product designed to facilitate creating custom honeypots by providing the underlying capabilities such as hidden monitoring. I didn't hear anything here that would help an executive be more aware of the threat. It was little more than "Be afraid. Be very afraid."
This was an EXCELLENT talk on CyberSecurity, wow! Seems simple enough but I would have never thought about enabling network intrusion via the creation of a dummy or "shadow network". Since we aren't in a space where we can re-architecture how networks pass data its an ingenious idea to use a network to trap and direct hackers to make them think they've hit paydirt.
18:45 In a nutshell: In a virtual world but full of Player versus player, then booted to a world full of npcs with the sprites of the original players.
A lot of this is incorrect in terms of the Natanz stuxnet attack. The Natanz siemens box was airgapped so it was impossible for stuxnet to phone home, it was programmed to know what to do. Also recently (3 months as of the writing of this comment) it was discovered that stuxnet was delivered via a water pump installed in the facility.
if i found a usb stick i would insert it into my virtual machine to check and wipe it. then use it. (the wiping also wipes and replaces the partition table so ALL data is gone, nearly pemenently)
scooter800m None of those things you said are true except that you'd plug it into your computer. Your virtual machine can't access that USB stick until your host operating system has connected and talked to it to tell your VM that it exists in the first place. By the time your VM knows it's there, you've already been pwned. Also, if it's actually a rogue device designed to hack your machine, you're only going to be able to wipe the part that it wants you to think you've wiped, not the part that was put there to infect your machine.
So what is new? How much time is required before a hack is found? Are you relying on your trusted software developers for security? You are a target don't you think it prudent to test your vulnerability? Would you not bait and trap? Ever considered training and education in " computer espionage "? Cyber warfare anyone?

Wiki source.Controversies[edit]On January 4, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed suit against McAfee for overstating its 1998-2000 net revenue by US$622 million.[59] Without admitting any wrongdoing, McAfee simultaneously settled the complaint, and agreed to pay a $50 million penalty and rework its accounting practices.[60] The fine was for accounting fraud; known as channel stuffing that served to inflate their revenue to their investors.[60]In October 2006, McAfee fired its president Kevin Weiss,[61] and its CEO George Samaneuk resigned under the cloud of a recent SEC investigation which also caused the departure of Kent Roberts, the General Counsel, earlier in the year. In late December 2006 both Weiss and Samaneuk had share option grant prices revised upwards by McAfee's board. Weiss and Roberts were both exonerated of all wrongdoing from the claims of McAfee in 2009.[citation needed]In January 2007, under pressure from ex-employees worldwide, several of which backed a class action in the United States, McAfee agreed to honor share options granted, but which are unable to be exercised due to the self-imposed blackout on employee options dealing.On April 21, 2010, beginning at approximately 14:00 UTC, millions of computers worldwide running Windows XP Service Pack 3 were affected by an erroneous virus definition file update by McAfee, resulting in the removal of a Windows system file (svchost.exe) on those machines, causing machines to lose network access and, in some cases, enter a reboot loop. McAfee rectified this by removing and replacing the faulty DAT file, version 5958, with an emergency DAT file, version 5959 and has posted a fix for the affected machines in their consumer knowledge base.[62][63] The University of Michigan's medical school reported that 8,000 of its 25,000 computers crashed. Police in Lexington, Ky., resorted to hand-writing reports and turned off their patrol car terminals as a precaution. Some jails canceled visitation, and Rhode Island hospitals turned away non-trauma patients at emergency rooms and postponed some elective surgeries.[64] Australian supermarket Coles reported that 10 percent (1,100) of its point-of-sales terminals were affected and was forced to shut down stores in both western and southern parts of the country.[65]As a result of the outage, McAfee implemented additional QA protocols for any releases that directly impacted critical system files. The company also rolled out additional capabilities in Artemis that provide another level of protection against false positives by leveraging a whitelist of hands-off system files.[66]In March 2011, a group of "white hat" hackers released a report that they had identified serious vulnerabilities to security at McAfee.com, pointing out flaws that could lead to information disclosure and other issues.[67]In August 2012, an issue with an update to McAfee antivirus for home and enterprise computers turned off the antivirus protection and, in many cases, prevented connection to the Internet. McAfee was criticized for being slow to address the problem, forcing network operations to spend time diagnosing the issue.[68]
This speech is informative about the way the present and future will be on cyber defense and infiltration. The down side is its bias to oneside, saying that this country or that country is making nuclear weapons. Let countries like the USA, Russia and China also have stock nuclear weapons. So if another country tries to arm itself it is added to a sanctions list. Its a case of a story not being bias to one country and keep it neatral to all countries. Keep it to science and tech and not politics.
This talk reflect the information that is verifiable in most media. The first this or that is actually the first time journalists spread the new to everybody.

Aurora invaded the zipper program via the web on the Canon pixima page it presents as a graphics program but down loads as a zipper compression file and copies your downloads and permissions to download and config, asking for permissions to allow access to keychains or passphrases etc. The canadian page offers free user menu and a path to free airprint., so technically you have let them in by sharware pages where the popup is chained to the page buts jumps ahead to your program, also the real CD disk allows a graphics program to install on your PC when you think you will be installing along with the access menu, so I feel Canon is responsible for those who may have Aurora on their systems. it moves right for html authorizations of web sites from host or server data and otherwise does not perform well. Of course any file zipped with the program won't function properly and will need to be destroyed.

Excellent!
Cyberdyne Systems series T-800 Model 101 is already old news.
Aurora invaded the zipper program via the web on the Canon pixima page it presents as a graphics program but down loads as a zipper compression file and copies your downloads and permissions to download and config, asking for permissions to allow access to keychains or passphrases etc. The canadian page offers free user menu and a path to free airprint., so technically you have let them in by sharware pages where the popup is chained to the page buts jumps ahead to your program, also the real CD disk allows a graphics program to install on your PC when you think you will be installing along with the access menu, so I feel Canon is responsible for those who may have Aurora on their systems. it moves right for html authorizations of web sites from host or server data and otherwise does not perform well. Of course any file zipped with the program won't function properly and will need to be destroyed.
Thank You!
It's already happening. Just this morning I went to microwave some soup and when I got it out the bowl was scalding hot to the touch but the soup was still COLD

Windows Defender should be good enough for the average user, for now. If you really want a secure box use Linux.
McFacoffee - this has been a pain telling me l had no protection (when l have Defender which l found after a search) and slowing my operating system. I am NOT computer literate but managed to delete the bugger for good today. Now my computer runs smoother than ever! Does anyone think its a bad apple? (If doctors feed you with bad apples they can always charge you for services.) l think some of these companies actually give your computer viruses so you sign up in a panic.
Calm Energy Linux is not going to be more secure than Windows or Mac for the average user. The average user is better off with an iPad.
I don't think the "I love you" virus was the first one to spread via email, was it?
not first; but first major one
If you close your eyes you can enjoy Patrick Swayze giving a talk on cyber spy technology.
I'm behind several layers of firewalls, but my router log shows a break-in attempt from China or Russia, about every 10 seconds.
So, yeah. Shit's going on.
I turn off my modem when I'm not using the internet.
