Justin , Posted in hacking. The fact that SCADA systems and embedded controllers are woefully insecure is hardly news to security folk. But is is always somewhat eye opening to see how some of these systems can be compromised. One of those is in t his. Blog post from IOActive Labs that a friend sent to me, where they used remote control drones to hack the systems that send data to the traffic control systems. Nice to know the poor security isn't an accident, it was done on purpose due to customer demands!

Justin , 0 Comments. If true, this. Just leaves me speechless. Justin , Posted in hardening. The VMware hardening guide for vSphere 5.5 has been released and is available here: https:/ www.vmware.com/support/support-resources/hardening-guides.html. I've only had a chance to have a cursory look at it so far, but it looks pretty good. Women prefer length and men diversity. Justin , Posted in passwords. You know I'm referring to passwords. Also from the article:. Did that study include *nix admins?

Justin , Posted in fail. As we move into the age of the Internet of Things. Expect to see more and more stories like this one. Where a luxury toilet firm here in Japan have developed a Android-app controlled 'smart toilet'. The problem? All the toilets are hardcoded to a PIN of 0000 - allowing anyone with the app (in bluetooth range) to control the toilet. The toilet pales in comparison to the Smart TV. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

New Australian Privacy Principles. Justin , Posted in australia. Not that I'm in Australia at present, but I'm keeping an eye on things at home. Here is a nice little article from CSO.com,au on the ICT Security Controls Required by the Australian Privacy Principles. It will be interesting to see what impact the new principles have on Australian businesses and government. I wonder, do the privacy laws extend to non-citizen asylum seekers.
