Ph3@r & L0a7h1ng at Defcon 13

OK, so I haven't posted for a while.
The truth is I burned out in Vegas... Defcon was (in the case of some presentations) pretty damn good. Lots o' neat stuff out there. I left with an expanded mind. Seriously.

It was the non-Defcon activities of the 4 days in Las Vegas... beer went down far too easily the whole time, and I had cause to curse myself almost every morning upon waking.

Good times, good times.

Highlights from Defcon:

• The Shmoo Group
• Kaminsky's Black Ops Session
• The memory obfuscating rootkit POC
• Suicidal Linux
• Hacking Google Adwords
• Google Hacking for Penetration Testers
• Post-intrusion SSH Hijacking

Yeah... cool stuff. In addition to the wardriving and bluetooth sniping, I'm pretty sure someone there was running a man in the middle attack against GPRS wireless devices attempting to use the web; I know of at least one person whose attempted GMail session came up with a certificate mismatch.

Good times, good times...
