DC16 Recap

I could spend hours talking about how much of a good time Chris Mills and I had at DC16 or I figured you all could just tune in for EP8 which we’ll be recording tonight. There are a lot of people we need to thank for their hospitality as well as the free beer! We made all kinds of new friends and it was great finally being able to put names to faces. While you’re waiting for the live show tonight, follow the links below for some pics of the Podcasters Meetup as well as the live show recorded live from DC16!

If you thought you were a 1337 h4×0r…

In case you don’t have a television, radio, or even the Internet, which means you wouldn’t be reading this. One of the greatest cyber crimes of all time has finally come to a halt, or so they think…

Eleven people in the US city of Boston have been charged with credit card fraud. The US authorities say the suspects stole the data from more than 40 million credit cards.

The hackers obtained the information by installing software in computers and databases of banks and major store chains. They also drove through residential districts with a laptop to hack into personal computers with wireless connections.

Prosecutors speak of the biggest credit card swindle in US history. The suspects, who have US, Estonian, Ukrainian, Belarus and Chinese nationalities, allegedly embezzled tens of millions of dollars.

So while I’m sitting at DEFCON 16 enjoying a “free” bar tab, I wonder if I’ll see it show up my own credit card since I could quite possibly be funding one of these parties and not even know until it’s too late. Oh well, that’s what the fraud department is for right…

Defcon 16 and Podcasters’ Meetup Info

If you haven’t already heard about the meetup and are going to Defcon, there will be a meetup on Saturday, August 9th in the skybox which the folks at i-hacked.com reserved.  You can find the full information at mubix’s site located here.

While I won’t be attending Defcon, three of our crew will be.  Chris Mills, Jay Mueller, and Rob Fuller.  Keep an eye out for them as at some point they will likely be wearing their SecuraBit T-Shirts and passing out free stickers.  Jay should have a backpack full of t-shirts to sell should you want one.  I am sending off the box today to him, so any further donations to the site for them will be filled by him either by shipping it to you or giving it to you in person at Defcon.

Episode 8 will be delayed until the Wednesday after Defcon, though we expect at least one more SecuraByte in the interim.

Thanks for listening!
