CloudCamp sound bites
Whilst I research further I thought I’d share some of the comments and soundbites (mostly paraphrased) a took a note of during the CloudCamp NE event.
Initial thoughts from CloudCamp
Tonight was the second CloudCamp event in the North East of England, and my first serious look at cloud computing. I really enjoyed the event and believe I recieved excellent value from attendence, so thanks to all those who helped run the event, presented and discussed aspects of the field with me during the breakout sessions.
July SuperMondays Review
This months SuperMondays started of with the usual round of pre-event geek talk and networking.

The premise of Kon-Boot is simple, by modifying the system kernel (Windows or Linux) upon boot there is no need to know the users password to access the system. Kon-Boot […]
Updated wardrive rig
This post should be short and sweet as Dale beat me to the punch with an excellent write up of wardriving with BT4. Thanks to some back and forth advice, Dale’s hardware setup is also nearly identical to mine so I wont repeat anything he’s already published. But his post did push me to stop […]
ZeroWine
Zero Wine is: an open source (GPL v2) research project to dynamically analyze the behavior of malware. Zero wine just runs the malware using WINE in a safe virtual sandbox (in an isolated environment) collecting information about the APIs called by the program. The output generated by wine (using the debug environment variable WINEDEBUG) are […]
