*** Comparing OpenBSD with FreeBSD - securitywise *** --------------------------------------------- OpenBSD and FreeBSD are both great OS that I admire and use. OpenBSD is considered more secure since it is its main goal, but FreeBSD can be tweaked to be pretty well hardened as well. Depending on the forums or to who we ask, we will have different opinions. But what are the facts? Which OS is more secure and why? --------------------------------------------- http://networkfilter.blogspot.co.at/2014/12/security-openbsd-vs-freebsd.html
*** SSL Labs end of year 2014 updates *** ---------------------------------------------
From the SSL/TLS perspective, 2014 was quite an eventful year. The best way to describe what we at SSL Labs did is we kept running to stay in the same place. What I mean by this is that we spent a lot of time reacting to high profile vulnerabilities: Hearbleed, the ChangeCipherSpec protocol issue in OpenSSL, POODLE (against SSL 3 in October and against TLS in December), and others. Ultimately, this has been a very successful year for us, with millions of assessments carried out.

*** The Abandoned Side of the Internet: Hijacking Internet Resources When Domain Names Expire *** --------------------------------------------- In this paper, we discuss an attacker model that accounts for the hijacking of network ownership information stored in Regional Internet Registry (RIR) databases. We show that such threats emerge from abandoned Internet resources (e.g., IP address blocks, AS numbers). When DNS names expire, attackers gain the opportunity to take resource ownership by re-registering domain names that are referenced by corresponding RIR database objects. --------------------------------------------- http://arxiv.org/abs/1412.5052

*** Certified pre-pw0ned Android Smartphones: Coolpad Firmware Backdoor, (Wed, Dec 17th) *** --------------------------------------------- Researchers at Palo Alto found that many ROM images used for Android smart phones manufactured by Coolpad contain a backdoor, giving an attacker full control of the device. Palo Alto named the backdoor Coolreaper. With Android, it is very common for manufacturers to install additional applications. But these applications are installed on top of the Android operating system. In this case, Coolpad integrated additional functionality into the firmware of the device. This backdoor was then used by --------------------------------------------- https://isc.sans.edu/diary.html?storyid=19075&rss
