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 […]
Good night Milw0rm
Final Update: Crisis averted, Milw0rm is still up and functioning. Looks like Milw0rm is calling it a night. Haven’ t been able to get any official word as the site is unavailable. As the site is now unavailable it’s hard to tell what happened, but an ISC diary has this message from the site: Well, […]
kismet2gmapstatic: Updated versions
I’ve spent the day adding some additional functionality to my GPS mapping proof of concept (original here). The second release, kismet2gmapstatic-0_2.py, changes the scripts output to wrap the Google maps API call in a self contained HTML page, and contains multiple map images to mitigate the URL length limit. The third release, kismet2gmapstatic-0_3.py, builds on […]
BU-353 GPS Reciever
Recently added to my wireless toolkit is a USB GPS reciever. After a fair amount of research and some advice from more experience guys I ended up with the Globalsat BU-353 device below: (If you can’t make it out, that is a British 10p for size comparison) Unsurprisingly given some of my previous posts, the […]
kismet2gmapstatic (PoC)
I’m still following my recent interest in wireless networks and devices. In the past month I gained a USB gps reciever (which I forgot to write about, may have a short review shortly). After adding gps capability to my wardrive setup I proceed to scan the local area, then hit a brick wall. There appears […]
Unetbootin
Live boot CDs have always been the mainstay of security and incident response toolkits. These days CD drives are starting to become scarcer, optical media is prone to scratching, and flash media is rapidly getting cheaper. Additionally flash drives often have much high capacity storage for their size. As a result USB pendrives are starting […]
BackTrack4 Pre-Release Released
The Remote-Exploit boys have done it again, pre-release version of BackTrack 4 is available for download here. As always there is a large amount documentation available on the Remote-Exploit wiki and forum, and the Offensive-Security blog. In case you’ve been living under a rock, BackTrack is now based on Ubuntu which makes the OS easier […]
Lone Gunman & run books
Keeping with todays theme of working through a backlog, I’ve had two ISC diaries flagged for several months, Dealing with Security Challanges and Making the most of your runbooks. The first is more a question of how to handle security incidents and requirements with minimal resources. This seems to be a common theme, with lots […]
Securely wiping a drive with dd
Cleaning the harddrive of any machine, be it desktop, laptop or server, before either repurposing or selling (or even scrapping), should be a basic requirement of any organisation. But there is a seemingly unrelenting stream of reported incident, some of which coming from organisations that really should know better, MI6 and military contractors for example. […]
