The mobile app revolution is upon us. Applications on your smartphone know more about you than anyone or anything else in the world. Apps know where you are, who you talk to, and what you're doing on the web; they have access to your financial accounts, can trigger charges to your phone bill, and much more. Have you ever wondered what smartphone apps are actually doing under the hood? We built the largest-ever mobile application security da....

The Arduino microcontroller platform entered the world under the guise of "physical computing" aimed at designers and artists but just like you can use a paint brush to jimmy open a door, you can use the Arduino in your security toolkit too. Attend this talk to learn how the Arduino makes microcontrollers and embedded hardware accessible to hax0rs too. After a quick tour through the Arduino ecosystem we'll move on to offensive uses. You'll ....

These days, all hackers have jobs and make some type of money. No matter if you are an independent researcher/ consultant/ 1337 hacker/ or entrepreneur, sometimes you have to deal with the corporate crap, one way or another. Now, how about those who really have to deal with it on a daily-basis in the corporate world? Well, this is an updated version of my DEF CON15 talk, shorter in time, yet, heavier on rants. Years go by, and most companie....

Many lock manufacturers do not understand the relationship and intersection between "mechanical engineering" and "security engineering" in their products. Typically, design engineers are fairly adept at making things work properly, but often fail to contemplate, conceive of, or identify potential or actual "real world" vulnerabilities in the locks and related hardware that they manufacture. This failure can lead to serious breaches in secur....

Want to know the story behind the latest government scandal, or see what a three-letter agency knows about you? In this workshop, the Electronic Frontier Foundation will show you how to use two open government laws, the Freedom of Information Act and the Privacy Act, to ask for records from the federal government. We'll discuss what you can (and can't) get under these laws, how to write an effective open government request, how to appeal an....

Mobile phones are still a proving ground for keeping the users' privacy safe. This presentation will describe the problems which are arising around the use of these technologies and how they can affect mobile users. It will propose Tor as a possible solution for some of these problems, describing its own strengths and weaknesses and the efforts developers put to implement a working port of the program on different devices, from the Chumby O....

Working with more than 50 malicious backdoors written over the last 10 years we show how insiders who write code, whether they are developers working for an enterprise or contributors to an open source project, have an almost unlimited number of ways to put chinks in the armor of their software. These holes are often put in place for seemingly good reasons to facilitate easy debugging, make working from home easier, or as a failsafe in case....

This presentation will look at ways you can get critical data across the country during a wired infrastructure break down, Including taking over satellites, low altitude wifi via weather balloons, and bouncing signals off the moon. We will also take a look at some other stuff you can blame us for as time permits.

WPA2 is the most robust security configuration available today for WiFi networks. It is widely used to secure enterprise WLANs. Interestingly, it is also being used to secure guest, municipal and public WiFi networks. In this paper, we present a new vulnerability found in WPA2 protocol which can be exploited by a malicious user to attack and compromise legitimate users. We also present a few attack mitigation techniques which can be used to....

Gold farmers. Cheaters. Beleaguered programmers. All ingredients in a recipe for an unstable, fun-sapping game. Closely following the model of "Brief Title: Long, Boring Description," Securing MMOs: A Security Professional's View From the Inside will give attendees a look at the security problems plaguing the MMO industry and how modern engineers are taking the fight to cheaters and hackers in MMOs. metr0 is currently a Senior Sof..

This talk covers the use of chaining vulnerabilities in order to bypass layered security systems. This talk will also cover ways of obtaining wormable remote code execution on a modern LAMP platform. These attacks where developed by me, and they are very new. These attacks are as real as it gets, and the results are making the headlines. "Apocalyptic infection" -- The Register Michael Brooks: This will be my 3rd year in a row that ..
