*** Security Economics of the Internet of Things *** --------------------------------------------- Brian Krebs is a popular reporter on the cybersecurity beat. He regularly exposes cybercriminals and their tactics, and consequently is regularly a target of their ire. Last month, he wrote about an online attack-for-hire service that resulted in the arrest of the two proprietors. In the aftermath, his site was taken down by a massive DDoS attack.In many ways, this is nothing new. Distributed denial-of-service attacks are a family of attacks that cause websites and other Internet-connected... --------------------------------------------- https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2016/10/security_econom_1.html

Das ist soweit nicht überraschend, die verfügbare Bandbreite im Internet wächst immer noch stark, da ist klar, dass damit auch die Angriffsstärke zunehmen kann. Überraschend war aber, dass der Rekord nicht über einen "reflected DDoS" erreicht wurde.

*** Radare2: rahash2, (Mon, Oct 10th) *** --------------------------------------------- Radare2 is an open-source reverse-engineering framework. Some time ago I wrote about recovering ransomed pictures. By calculating the entropy of the ransomed files with my byte-stats tool, I could see that the file was not completely encrypted. rahash2 is one of the tools in the Radare2 framework. As it names implies, it calculates (cryptographic) hashes, but it is quite versatile. For example, it will also calculate entropy: And like my byte-stats.py tool, it can also split the file in blocks... --------------------------------------------- https://isc.sans.edu/diary.html?storyid=21577&rss
