When a CISO pays good money for a thorough pentesting, she wants results. Not necessarily the ones that the pentester had in mind, either. Whether the time allotted is too short, the pentester has to achieve multiple objectives, or they disagree on the severity of the findings, both the CISO and the pentester have to agree on both sides of the engagement. We discuss numerous aspects of voluntary pwnage: the differences between a security as..

This is certainly true in the "security space," in which our narratives are self-referential, bounded by mutual self-interest, and characterized by a heavy dose of group-think. That narrative serves as insulation to filter out the most critica....
Lock manufacturers continue to produce insecure designs in both mechanical and electro-mechanical locks.

Recent disclosures with regard to extremely popular push-button locks have led to an expanded investigation into their technology and security by our research team. As a consequence, it appears that mechanical l....

https://www.defcon.org/html/links/dc-archives/dc-19-archive.html The only thing worse than no security is a false sense of security. And though we know, "you can't win by defense alone", our modern approaches tend to act as though offense and defense are two entirely separate things. Treating security as an issue of quality has gotten us far, however, nearly everyday, some of the largest companies are still being compromised. It's beco....
