Ok, anyone from this group going to the MCISC conference tomorrow? If you haven't registered, you'll notice their site says they are Sold Out. I was just wondering if anyone here is going. A great schedule it looks like. Thanks.

IP Spoofing
Contributed by: dhar | Views::7,130

$\"D\"$ har sent us this piece about IP spoofing, along with this interesting quote:

All warfare is based on deception. Hence when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.

-Sun Tzu in The Art of War

The End of SSL and SSH?
Contributed by: jacklord | Views::1,987

I recently took a work-related trip to Bombay,India to train staff at our new office, and I met a guy who contributed an interesting story to Linux Journal (online). It discusses some of today\'s security issues. http://www2.linuxjournal.com/articles/misc/0045.html I was wondering what lengths people are going through today to keep information secure. I apt-get install\'ed dsniff and ethereal and ran them up, and was amazed at how simple it is to view network traffic.
