*** Spike in Malware Attacks on Aging ATMs ***
---------------------------------------------
This author has long been fascinated with ATM skimmers, custom-made fraud devices designed to steal card data and PINs from unsuspecting users of compromised cash machines. But a recent spike in malicious software capable of infecting and jackpotting ATMs is shifting the focus away from innovative, high-tech skimming devices toward the rapidly aging ATM infrastructure in the United States and abroad.

*** Breaking International Voicemail Security via VVM Exploitation ***
---------------------------------------------
A few days ago, I gave a presentation at Ruxcon about breaking international voicemail security. Whilst the crowd and conference were absolutely amazing - my overall research, I think has a much wider scope in the terms of whom it could affect. This blog post acts as a technical writeup and companion to my slides presented at Ruxcon. TL;DR Briefly put, through researching the visual voicemail protocol, we were able to document a number of different vulnerabilities, including some which affected...

*** Black Hat Europe - day 2 ***
---------------------------------------------
IPv6 versus IDPS, XSS in WYSIWYG editors, and reflected file downloads.After a busy first day, I was somewhat glad that the talks on the second day of Black Hat Europe appealed slightly less to my personal tastes and interests, as this gave me a chance to meet some old and new friends, and to have those conversations that perhaps form the heart of a security conference.I did attend three talks though, each of which was very interesting.Early in the morning, Antonios Atlasis, Enno Rey and Rafael...

*** Targeted Attack Protection via Network Topology Alteration ***
---------------------------------------------
When it comes to targeted attacks, attackers are not omniscient. They need to gather information in the early stages to know the target they may gather information from various sources of intelligence, like Google, Whois, Twitter, and Facebook.
