HACK.LU 2007
Last week there was the yearly gathering in Luxembourg (Kirchberg) bringing back together the people who breath IT security for a 3 day conference.
Just like last year, the agenda was very promising...
I arrived Wednesday evening in the Novotel at about 23h30 spending the rest of the evening partitioning my Sandisk Cruzer (4GB) and configuring the backtrack image.
I'm drafting up a small document explaining in easy steps how you can do this yourself. It's convenient if you want to prevent data leakage from your corporate windows image. By booting of a memory stick instead of a CD it's quicker and read/write access is no problem at all.
The rest of the 3 days I really enjoyed Saumil's workshop on Thursday morning teaching how to write exploits in the MetaSploit 3.0 framework.
Lance Spitzner's (founder honeynet project) view on fast-flux service networks was very amusing also. By the way, great person to meet and drink a couple of beers with ;-)
Automated malware detection programs (botspy), e-passport and rfid snooping, exploiting SAP internals and wifi fuzzing (from the France Telecom R&D guys) were some of the topics that past the venue.
Depending on how busy my tail -f /var/log/syslog was ;-) I spend most of the time listening, brainstorming on security related matters letting me understand that creativity is an important asset to have.
You can find some high level notes that I made here.
Some rich bookmarks will be posted in the next couple of days revealing more content in line with the hack.lu agenda.
Again I was very happy being able to attend the conference and once again I've met interesting people!! Hack.lu, cu next year!Labels: security conference
