  2. For your weekend:

    The first early release talk from DEF CON 34 has made it to our YouTube channel. Please enjoy national treasure Cliff Stoll updating his 'Stalking the Wily Hacker' and casually dropping gems all over the place.

    If you haven't read 'The Cuckoo's Egg', this is your sign from the universe to remedy that.

  10. Last year I was talking with @woody and asked for recommendations and he suggested "The City & the City" by China Miéville. It was fantastic, I had never read anything like it. That started a round of requests for this year. (My years tend to start after the end of #DefCon for some reason)

  11. "Following Black Hat/DEF CON, a Huntress researcher was targeted by a threat actor who used X DMs and fake security conference planning as a pretext to establish trust before attempting to deploy malware. The researcher recognized the lure as a scam and did not fall for it, but continued engaging with the actor to better understand the tactics they were using.

    The campaign targeted macOS and Windows users with different payloads. The macOS path delivered an AMOS infostealer, while the Windows path delivered NetSupport RAT, a Ledger wallet implant, and a traffic-intercepting proxy.

    A malicious Google Apps Script supplied by the actor turned a Google Doc into an infection mechanism. The attack presented ClickFix-style instructions alongside a manual download option as a sidebar in the Google Doc.

    A second payload imitated a DocSend installer to retrieve either the macOS or Windows payload."

  14. The Register: Black Hat and DEF CON are AI conferences now, too. “Our cybersecurity editor Jessica Lyons spent last week in Las Vegas for the Black Hat and DEF CON security conferences, and at both events there was only one thing on everyone’s mind: AI agents and their growing threat to cybersecurity defenders.”

  17. I am trying to read sci-fi authors I never explored when I was younger, based on recommendations from friends.

    During #DefCon I had dinner with Bruce Schneier, @jennifer, and @adamshostack who suggested a bunch, and I’ve started reading Revelation Space by Alastair Reynolds. Best quote so far:

    “I’m sorry, I thought—“ Volyova trailed off. “Your people don’t use simulations for this kind of work?”

    “We used to,” Vavilov said, with a long suffering sigh. “But the trouble with simulations is that they put up with far too much shit.”

  18. "Am I AI?" - An EDM exploration of consciousness in the age of artificial intelligence! Written for Defcon 2024, this track questions the boundaries between human & machine, examining AI's role in cybersecurity & digital autonomy. Are you sure you're not AI?
