WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:29.980
I

00:30.000 --> 00:32.460
My name is Neo and I'm a hero

00:32.460 --> 00:35.120
In a flash, I'll screw you on burning Dreamcast

00:35.120 --> 00:38.380
You need some ISO? Let me do my hard drive rifle

00:38.380 --> 00:40.420
Our exchange you could never stifle

00:40.420 --> 00:43.540
In a digital hood, you just caught the love bug

00:43.540 --> 00:47.560
I bootlegged your CD, I carved the fight between Un and Jay-Z

00:47.560 --> 00:49.780
Your CG, it's all gonna be free

00:49.780 --> 00:52.280
Whether we take it by force or we take it night free

00:52.280 --> 00:54.080
You feel that rattle in your bones?

00:54.360 --> 00:56.280
When I tell you we just hacked out Jones

00:56.280 --> 00:58.420
And NASDAQ leaves you flat on your back

00:58.420 --> 01:00.740
Cause I am he who loves to hack and crack

01:00.740 --> 01:03.580
Cause I am he who loves to hack and crack

01:03.580 --> 01:06.460
This is dedicated to the hackers and the crew

01:06.460 --> 01:11.460
They're real phones, swords, toes, eyes, toes, rad, cip, cip

01:11.460 --> 01:13.280
This is dedicated to the hackers

01:13.280 --> 01:19.180
Hello! Welcome to Binary Revolution Radio, episode 179

01:19.180 --> 01:28.220
And today's date here is December 26, 2000

01:28.220 --> 01:29.780
Okay, we're not gonna say that

01:29.780 --> 01:32.660
This is a kind of a, this is 179

01:32.660 --> 01:36.280
And the supposed air date was the 26th

01:36.280 --> 01:40.260
But due to a bit of miscommunications

01:40.260 --> 01:43.660
And I thought Stank Dog was going to do it

01:43.660 --> 01:45.620
And Stank Dog thought I was going to do it

01:45.620 --> 01:49.100
We didn't actually end up doing a show for this week

01:49.100 --> 01:50.420
So this is our makeup show

01:50.420 --> 01:52.700
It's 179, we're gonna get this up hopefully

01:52.700 --> 01:54.700
Before the new year

01:54.700 --> 01:56.860
I really hope, unless I get too drunk tomorrow night

01:56.860 --> 01:58.980
And we'll try to get all that figured out

01:58.980 --> 02:01.620
And with us this week is Paladin

02:01.620 --> 02:03.180
How you guys doing?

02:04.520 --> 02:05.240
Yeah, pretty good

02:05.240 --> 02:07.080
Is there someone else here besides me?

02:07.580 --> 02:09.800
I looked under my seat, I don't see anybody

02:09.800 --> 02:13.560
Yeah, how are you doing, BlackRash?

02:13.560 --> 02:18.020
I'm doing pretty well with the fact that

02:18.020 --> 02:21.140
We're just kind of sheepishly explaining

02:21.140 --> 02:22.380
Why we didn't have a show this week

02:22.380 --> 02:26.000
I'm actually curious how many

02:26.000 --> 02:28.460
I'm actually curious how many people

02:28.460 --> 02:30.580
Didn't notice that we didn't have a show this week

02:30.580 --> 02:33.680
As, you know, combined with the issues

02:33.680 --> 02:36.400
We haven't had issues updating the podcast

02:36.400 --> 02:38.720
And I don't think the past two shows

02:38.720 --> 02:39.860
Have actually gone out live

02:39.860 --> 02:41.520
Due to the server issues

02:41.520 --> 02:45.440
And that kind of messes up everything down the line

02:45.440 --> 02:47.540
But I'm curious as to

02:47.540 --> 02:48.680
And plus with all the holidays

02:48.680 --> 02:50.980
I'm curious if anyone's actually downloaded the show this week

02:50.980 --> 02:52.660
I bet everyone's like expecting this

02:52.660 --> 02:54.200
Like they're listening to the show

02:54.200 --> 02:55.540
And it's like, oh, it didn't air?

02:55.820 --> 02:56.860
Oh, jeez

02:56.860 --> 03:00.540
But I don't know

03:00.540 --> 03:02.880
I guess we can make like predictions for the future

03:02.880 --> 03:04.560
To prove like this is actually in the future

03:04.560 --> 03:06.900
Saddam's dead

03:06.900 --> 03:07.520
Yay!

03:07.520 --> 03:10.180
Yeah, well

03:10.180 --> 03:12.140
I'm sure there's all kinds of people going out there

03:12.140 --> 03:13.940
Oh, you know, he was a good guy

03:13.940 --> 03:16.640
He didn't mean to kill all those hundreds of people

03:16.640 --> 03:18.840
That was a frame job

03:18.840 --> 03:19.440
I don't know

03:19.440 --> 03:21.360
Yeah, this is politics

03:21.360 --> 03:22.140
We're getting away from that

03:22.140 --> 03:23.080
So, how are you doing?

03:23.840 --> 03:24.200
Fantastic

03:24.200 --> 03:25.720
I had a wonderful holiday

03:25.720 --> 03:26.580
Yourself?

03:27.360 --> 03:27.720
Yeah

03:27.720 --> 03:29.600
I did pretty good for my holiday

03:29.600 --> 03:30.720
Yeah, because it's after Christmas

03:30.720 --> 03:32.500
Actually, it would be after Christmas

03:32.500 --> 03:33.140
No matter what

03:33.140 --> 03:34.160
Even if we heard this live

03:34.160 --> 03:37.980
Yeah, I got some nice books

03:37.980 --> 03:39.500
I got some computer-related gizmos

03:39.500 --> 03:43.080
I got an electronic weather station

03:43.080 --> 03:44.900
So now I can find out what the temperature is

03:44.900 --> 03:45.920
And what the forecast is

03:45.920 --> 03:47.360
From the comfort of my own home

03:47.360 --> 03:47.680
Awesome

03:47.680 --> 03:48.900
Yeah, my parents have one of those

03:48.900 --> 03:50.000
They're really, really interesting

03:50.000 --> 03:52.200
It's cool

03:52.200 --> 03:52.900
I like it

03:52.900 --> 03:57.680
It is currently 35.4 degrees outside

03:57.680 --> 03:58.820
Wow

03:58.820 --> 04:01.900
With a barometric pressure of 30.30 inches

04:01.900 --> 04:04.820
Fantastic

04:04.820 --> 04:06.460
Yeah

04:06.460 --> 04:08.000
I mean, you always should wear like

04:08.000 --> 04:08.680
Cool like me

04:08.680 --> 04:11.080
Now, does

04:11.080 --> 04:12.080
So, yes

04:12.080 --> 04:14.340
Does it do the satellite update thing?

04:14.760 --> 04:16.180
With the time and all that good stuff?

04:17.800 --> 04:18.360
It does

04:18.360 --> 04:19.580
It's not satellite

04:19.580 --> 04:20.720
It does it through

04:20.720 --> 04:23.280
WWV in Colorado

04:23.280 --> 04:24.420
I think that's where it is

04:24.420 --> 04:24.740
Awesome

04:24.740 --> 04:26.140
Probably syncs with

04:26.140 --> 04:26.700
And actually

04:26.700 --> 04:27.080
This

04:27.080 --> 04:29.660
Well, yeah, yeah

04:29.660 --> 04:30.960
This one actually does it

04:30.960 --> 04:32.000
But I actually find I'm using

04:32.000 --> 04:33.640
That my Radio Shack clock

04:33.640 --> 04:34.660
That's supposed to do it

04:34.660 --> 04:36.080
Only updates like

04:36.080 --> 04:37.360
Once in a blue moon

04:37.360 --> 04:38.320
Through the same source

04:38.320 --> 04:39.100
Even though they're like

04:39.100 --> 04:40.440
Two feet away

04:40.440 --> 04:41.700
Not even two feet away

04:41.700 --> 04:42.020
They're like

04:42.020 --> 04:43.560
Six inches from each other

04:43.560 --> 04:44.840
And the weather station

04:44.840 --> 04:45.740
Picks up the signal

04:45.740 --> 04:47.700
Actually, I'm curious

04:47.700 --> 04:48.420
If the weather station

04:48.420 --> 04:48.800
Picks it up

04:48.800 --> 04:49.740
Or the remote transmitter

04:49.740 --> 04:50.280
Picks it up

04:50.280 --> 04:51.140
That's a good question

04:51.140 --> 04:52.040
That could be the difference

04:52.040 --> 04:53.640
Who knows?

04:53.700 --> 04:54.240
Who knows?

04:57.820 --> 04:59.280
Yes, enough about my weather station

04:59.280 --> 04:59.880
I don't know

04:59.880 --> 05:02.480
I think we already covered

05:02.480 --> 05:03.100
The fact that

05:03.100 --> 05:05.680
This is a pre-recorded late show

05:05.680 --> 05:05.980
So

05:05.980 --> 05:07.340
We'll forgive you

05:07.340 --> 05:07.820
And hopefully

05:07.820 --> 05:09.760
180 will be out on time

05:09.760 --> 05:10.540
We're going to hopefully

05:10.540 --> 05:11.380
Record that Monday

05:11.380 --> 05:12.840
What we're going to talk about

05:12.840 --> 05:13.500
Don't know yet

05:13.500 --> 05:14.120
But we're going to

05:14.120 --> 05:15.080
Talk about something

05:15.080 --> 05:15.980
And gosh darn

05:15.980 --> 05:16.660
It's going to be cruel

05:16.660 --> 05:19.840
I'm sure it'll be fine

05:19.840 --> 05:21.360
Yes

05:21.360 --> 05:23.420
Alright, shall we

05:23.420 --> 05:24.060
Go into email?

05:24.520 --> 05:24.920
Absolutely

05:24.920 --> 05:45.820
Our first email tonight

05:45.820 --> 05:46.580
Is from

05:46.580 --> 05:47.820
Sissy

05:47.820 --> 05:49.920
Sisyphean

05:49.920 --> 05:51.020
It's all you, man

05:51.020 --> 05:52.460
I wouldn't even try to pronounce that one

05:52.460 --> 05:54.660
Yeah, see this is the problem

05:54.660 --> 05:57.640
People, just make it easy on me

05:57.640 --> 05:59.440
Include a pronunciation key

05:59.440 --> 05:59.940
With your

05:59.940 --> 06:01.420
With your emails

06:01.420 --> 06:02.060
I think that's actually

06:02.060 --> 06:02.780
Sisyphean

06:02.780 --> 06:03.480
Isn't that like someone

06:03.480 --> 06:04.520
From like Greek mythology?

06:05.440 --> 06:07.020
I believe it may be

06:07.020 --> 06:08.660
I don't know

06:08.660 --> 06:09.480
I never took

06:09.480 --> 06:11.480
Latin or Greek mythology

06:11.480 --> 06:12.360
Or any of those people

06:12.360 --> 06:12.640
So

06:12.640 --> 06:13.920
Anyway

06:13.920 --> 06:16.100
Sisyphean writes

06:16.100 --> 06:18.200
Please, please, please

06:18.200 --> 06:19.080
No more episodes

06:19.080 --> 06:19.780
On wilderness

06:19.780 --> 06:20.760
Boy Scouts, etc

06:20.760 --> 06:21.880
My ears are bleeding

06:21.880 --> 06:23.860
It's so boring

06:23.860 --> 06:25.480
I like to listen to bin rev

06:25.480 --> 06:26.300
But for the tech

06:26.300 --> 06:27.260
Hacking related stuff

06:27.260 --> 06:28.000
Not the woods

06:28.000 --> 06:29.240
Closest I ever get

06:29.240 --> 06:29.760
To the wilderness

06:29.760 --> 06:30.520
Is Central Park

06:30.520 --> 06:31.140
In New York City

06:31.140 --> 06:32.320
From Sissyphean

06:32.320 --> 06:34.180
Well, you know

06:34.180 --> 06:35.000
It's like everyone

06:35.000 --> 06:36.080
Complains about having

06:36.080 --> 06:37.160
To listen to safety lecture

06:37.160 --> 06:38.560
Before the plane takes off

06:38.560 --> 06:39.160
But like

06:39.160 --> 06:39.900
As soon as the engines

06:39.900 --> 06:40.820
Start catching fire

06:40.820 --> 06:42.040
They start scrambling

06:42.040 --> 06:42.720
You know

06:42.720 --> 06:43.540
Making sure

06:43.540 --> 06:44.760
There's heat belts buckled

06:44.760 --> 06:45.440
And reading the little

06:45.440 --> 06:47.080
Safety evacuation manual

06:47.080 --> 06:49.680
Hacking isn't restricted

06:49.680 --> 06:50.040
It's that

06:50.040 --> 06:51.360
It's handy to know

06:51.360 --> 06:53.760
It was some good stuff

06:53.760 --> 06:56.100
You were actually

06:56.100 --> 06:56.780
Part of the

06:56.780 --> 06:57.680
The naysayers

06:57.680 --> 06:58.060
Weren't you

06:58.060 --> 06:58.440
Spalladin

06:58.440 --> 06:59.920
Yes

06:59.920 --> 07:01.460
Yes, I was

07:01.460 --> 07:03.000
Yes

07:03.000 --> 07:04.020
But of course

07:04.020 --> 07:04.680
You actually

07:04.680 --> 07:05.680
Knew all of this

07:05.680 --> 07:07.280
Yes, the majority of it

07:07.280 --> 07:07.780
I was in

07:07.780 --> 07:08.480
Boy Scouts

07:08.480 --> 07:09.040
When I was younger

07:09.040 --> 07:09.500
So

07:09.500 --> 07:10.980
Yes, it was all

07:10.980 --> 07:12.220
Not new to me

07:12.220 --> 07:13.620
Yes

07:13.620 --> 07:14.200
I bet

07:14.200 --> 07:14.500
Actually

07:14.500 --> 07:14.940
Sisyphean

07:14.940 --> 07:15.480
I'm like right now

07:15.480 --> 07:15.740
It's like

07:15.740 --> 07:16.700
His ears are bleeding again

07:16.700 --> 07:17.200
Because there's two

07:17.200 --> 07:17.680
Boy Scouts

07:17.680 --> 07:18.080
On the show

07:18.080 --> 07:18.860
And he's like no

07:18.860 --> 07:20.800
I don't want to listen to it

07:20.800 --> 07:23.260
The Scoutmaster touched me

07:23.260 --> 07:29.740
But anyway

07:29.740 --> 07:30.000
Yes

07:30.000 --> 07:32.300
People just

07:32.300 --> 07:32.640
You know

07:32.640 --> 07:33.600
They complain about it

07:33.600 --> 07:34.340
But hacking

07:34.340 --> 07:35.120
Like I said

07:35.120 --> 07:35.940
Hacking isn't restricted

07:35.940 --> 07:36.740
It's just

07:36.740 --> 07:37.740
It's there

07:37.740 --> 07:38.680
Hacking is wilderness

07:38.680 --> 07:39.140
Hacking

07:39.140 --> 07:39.940
Hacking is hacking

07:39.940 --> 07:40.520
Your car

07:40.520 --> 07:41.780
I think

07:41.780 --> 07:42.740
Like Stankdog

07:42.740 --> 07:43.620
Caught a lot of fire

07:43.620 --> 07:44.120
Back in

07:44.120 --> 07:45.080
Hack TV 1

07:45.080 --> 07:45.800
When he was talking

07:45.800 --> 07:47.080
About modding his car

07:47.080 --> 07:48.700
But that's car hacking

07:48.700 --> 07:49.580
Hacking isn't just

07:49.580 --> 07:50.320
Computer stuff

07:50.320 --> 07:50.820
Absolutely

07:50.820 --> 07:52.900
Totally

07:52.900 --> 07:53.780
There's a lot of

07:53.780 --> 07:55.120
Computer cars these days

07:55.120 --> 07:57.800
Yeah, that is true

07:57.800 --> 07:58.520
I actually know someone

07:58.520 --> 07:59.240
Who hacked a computer

07:59.240 --> 07:59.940
In their car

07:59.940 --> 08:02.840
He made it all up

08:02.840 --> 08:03.460
And I actually

08:03.460 --> 08:04.280
The only problem

08:04.280 --> 08:04.800
That I have with it

08:04.800 --> 08:05.700
I think it ran Windows

08:05.700 --> 08:07.220
But that was

08:07.220 --> 08:08.720
Because he wanted

08:08.720 --> 08:09.480
Some type of

08:09.480 --> 08:10.680
Turn by turn

08:10.680 --> 08:11.520
GPS software

08:11.520 --> 08:12.180
So I really couldn't

08:12.180 --> 08:12.820
Blame him for that

08:12.820 --> 08:14.900
Hey, Windows

08:14.900 --> 08:15.900
Keeps us security

08:15.900 --> 08:16.700
Professionals

08:16.700 --> 08:17.680
Employed

08:17.680 --> 08:19.320
Indeed

08:19.320 --> 08:19.900
Indeed

08:19.900 --> 08:20.640
Indeed it does

08:20.640 --> 08:22.920
I remember when

08:22.920 --> 08:23.800
Like NT4

08:23.800 --> 08:24.200
Had out

08:24.200 --> 08:24.780
And came out

08:24.780 --> 08:25.340
And they had the

08:25.340 --> 08:26.780
Zero administration

08:26.780 --> 08:27.460
Toolkit

08:27.460 --> 08:30.100
And I remember

08:30.100 --> 08:30.660
I remember

08:30.660 --> 08:31.140
Like going

08:31.140 --> 08:31.900
Oh, wow

08:31.900 --> 08:33.020
This is interesting

08:33.020 --> 08:33.540
Let me

08:33.540 --> 08:34.460
Should I set this up

08:34.460 --> 08:35.060
And I'm looking at it

08:35.060 --> 08:35.180
Going

08:35.180 --> 08:35.960
Like, my god

08:35.960 --> 08:36.560
This will keep us

08:36.560 --> 08:37.620
Employed for years

08:37.620 --> 08:42.020
And so it began

08:42.020 --> 08:44.200
And so it began

08:44.200 --> 08:44.580
Indeed

08:44.580 --> 08:46.500
Windows NT4

08:46.500 --> 08:47.560
NT standard

08:47.560 --> 08:48.200
Nice try

08:48.200 --> 08:51.080
Who's our

08:51.080 --> 08:52.020
Who's our next email

08:52.020 --> 08:52.800
Our next email

08:52.800 --> 08:53.800
Is from Bladesjester

08:53.800 --> 08:54.740
And Sisyphean

08:54.740 --> 08:55.400
You might want to

08:55.400 --> 08:56.440
Skip ahead

08:56.440 --> 08:57.560
Maybe about five

08:57.560 --> 08:58.980
Maybe ten minutes

08:58.980 --> 08:59.720
Depending on how long

08:59.720 --> 09:00.560
It takes me to read this

09:00.560 --> 09:01.040
So just

09:01.040 --> 09:02.760
Just so you know

09:02.760 --> 09:04.940
Black Ratchet

09:04.940 --> 09:05.600
While listening to

09:05.600 --> 09:06.320
Survival episodes

09:06.320 --> 09:07.020
There are a few

09:07.020 --> 09:08.240
Things that come to mind

09:08.240 --> 09:09.440
The first thing

09:09.440 --> 09:09.940
That you do

09:09.940 --> 09:10.800
As a general rule

09:10.800 --> 09:11.680
Is to take inventory

09:11.680 --> 09:12.600
Which we sort of covered

09:12.600 --> 09:14.300
Though you do not want

09:14.300 --> 09:15.100
To improvise

09:15.100 --> 09:16.100
Anything and everything

09:16.100 --> 09:16.900
Survival training

09:16.900 --> 09:17.280
101

09:17.280 --> 09:19.420
What do we have

09:19.420 --> 09:20.420
And what do we need

09:20.420 --> 09:21.720
Don't use up resources

09:21.720 --> 09:22.480
On things that you

09:22.480 --> 09:22.940
Don't need

09:22.940 --> 09:24.100
Or can make

09:24.100 --> 09:24.740
Some other way

09:24.740 --> 09:25.460
If the resource

09:25.460 --> 09:26.040
Is something

09:26.040 --> 09:27.220
You don't have much of

09:27.220 --> 09:28.200
Since it is something

09:28.200 --> 09:29.280
That may be of use

09:29.280 --> 09:30.220
More use later

09:30.220 --> 09:31.640
Secondly

09:31.640 --> 09:33.440
On preparing a shelter

09:33.440 --> 09:35.000
Forests are a mixed blessing

09:35.000 --> 09:35.640
If you have built

09:35.640 --> 09:36.540
A shelter to stay in

09:36.540 --> 09:37.780
They can provide cover

09:37.780 --> 09:38.440
And are usually

09:38.440 --> 09:38.960
A good source

09:38.960 --> 09:39.780
Of food and resources

09:39.780 --> 09:40.780
However they are

09:40.780 --> 09:41.420
Also dangerous

09:41.420 --> 09:42.260
During storm

09:42.260 --> 09:43.520
Because of falling limbs

09:43.520 --> 09:44.960
During storm

09:44.960 --> 09:46.180
Because of falling limbs

09:46.180 --> 09:46.960
Some of which

09:46.960 --> 09:48.100
That can easily crush you

09:48.100 --> 09:50.040
On the poncho lean-to

09:50.040 --> 09:51.460
The poncho is not necessary

09:51.460 --> 09:52.720
Creating a lean-to

09:52.720 --> 09:53.520
And then filling it

09:53.520 --> 09:55.020
The gaps with smaller branches

09:55.020 --> 09:55.780
And covering it

09:55.780 --> 09:56.260
With leaves

09:56.260 --> 09:56.860
Pine needles

09:56.860 --> 09:57.280
And dirt

09:57.280 --> 09:58.540
Dirt is extremely good

09:58.540 --> 09:59.200
Insulator

09:59.200 --> 10:00.600
Is also very effective

10:00.600 --> 10:01.840
We're trying to be

10:01.840 --> 10:02.780
Frugal with our resources

10:02.780 --> 10:03.980
Because we may need

10:03.980 --> 10:04.440
To use them

10:04.440 --> 10:05.280
For something else later

10:05.280 --> 10:06.520
And there is a lot

10:06.520 --> 10:07.860
Better uses for cloth

10:07.860 --> 10:09.280
If you have options

10:09.280 --> 10:09.940
For materials

10:09.940 --> 10:10.740
You can make your shelter

10:10.740 --> 10:11.620
Out of

10:11.620 --> 10:13.700
After drinking water

10:13.700 --> 10:14.460
Boiling it will kill

10:14.460 --> 10:15.040
The microbes

10:15.040 --> 10:16.460
Boiling receptacles

10:16.460 --> 10:17.320
Can be made from

10:17.320 --> 10:18.140
Anything ranging from

10:18.140 --> 10:18.860
Large leaves

10:18.860 --> 10:19.620
To leather sacks

10:19.620 --> 10:20.360
To wooden poles

10:20.360 --> 10:21.460
Which aren't horribly

10:21.460 --> 10:22.020
Hard to make

10:22.020 --> 10:23.540
If you can't boil the water

10:23.540 --> 10:24.840
Try to find some water

10:24.840 --> 10:25.760
That animals are drinking

10:25.760 --> 10:26.780
Extra points for finding

10:26.780 --> 10:27.340
Suitable water

10:27.340 --> 10:28.060
That's being filtered

10:28.060 --> 10:28.860
Through a sandstone

10:28.860 --> 10:29.680
Because it's a very good

10:29.680 --> 10:30.320
Natural filter

10:30.320 --> 10:32.440
If you can't find

10:32.440 --> 10:33.580
Animal tracks around the water

10:33.580 --> 10:34.680
And the water is clear

10:34.680 --> 10:35.300
And flowing

10:35.300 --> 10:36.600
As in not stagnant

10:36.600 --> 10:37.580
Check to see whether

10:37.580 --> 10:38.420
Or not there are many

10:38.420 --> 10:39.980
Insect larvae in the water

10:39.980 --> 10:41.280
Many types of larvae

10:41.280 --> 10:41.900
Are a good indicator

10:41.900 --> 10:42.780
Of whether or not

10:42.780 --> 10:43.740
The water is polluted

10:43.740 --> 10:45.460
Since they do not

10:45.460 --> 10:47.080
Tolerate pollution well

10:47.080 --> 10:49.140
Food is a little trickier

10:49.140 --> 10:50.540
Most things that deer

10:50.540 --> 10:51.540
Andy said bears

10:51.540 --> 10:51.960
Eat

10:51.960 --> 10:52.520
Generally

10:52.520 --> 10:54.280
Are generally

10:54.280 --> 10:55.360
Fairly safe to consume

10:55.360 --> 10:55.980
Though there are

10:55.980 --> 10:56.820
Always exceptions

10:56.820 --> 10:58.540
Acorns may be eaten

10:58.540 --> 10:58.960
However

10:58.960 --> 11:00.160
Before you do

11:00.160 --> 11:01.640
They really need to have

11:01.640 --> 11:02.560
The toxins removed

11:02.560 --> 11:03.300
By shelling them

11:03.300 --> 11:04.860
Placing them in a cloth bag

11:04.860 --> 11:06.260
Of some sort

11:06.260 --> 11:07.160
And put the sack

11:07.160 --> 11:07.800
In the running water

11:07.800 --> 11:08.520
For a few days

11:08.520 --> 11:10.960
Around ponds

11:10.960 --> 11:11.880
Or other still

11:11.880 --> 11:13.140
Or slowly flowing

11:13.140 --> 11:14.060
Potties of water

11:14.060 --> 11:15.220
Dig up the cattail

11:15.220 --> 11:15.780
With the tubes

11:15.780 --> 11:16.400
On the roots

11:16.400 --> 11:16.980
That can be eaten

11:16.980 --> 11:17.560
Like potatoes

11:17.560 --> 11:18.040
Or grounded

11:18.040 --> 11:18.660
As a substance

11:18.660 --> 11:19.320
Like flour

11:19.320 --> 11:20.680
I actually remember that

11:20.680 --> 11:21.280
From some book

11:21.280 --> 11:23.660
Two of the things

11:23.660 --> 11:24.220
That you generally

11:24.220 --> 11:25.040
Want to avoid eating

11:25.040 --> 11:25.780
If they are only

11:25.780 --> 11:26.360
Food available

11:26.360 --> 11:27.640
Are trout and rabbits

11:27.640 --> 11:28.480
And it is actually

11:28.480 --> 11:29.260
Possible to starve

11:29.260 --> 11:29.920
To death on them

11:29.920 --> 11:31.000
However

11:31.000 --> 11:31.900
If other foods

11:31.900 --> 11:33.680
Such as tubers

11:33.680 --> 11:34.540
And acorns

11:34.540 --> 11:35.200
And other forms

11:35.200 --> 11:35.520
Of meat

11:35.520 --> 11:36.380
Are available

11:36.380 --> 11:36.920
Then the trout

11:36.920 --> 11:37.260
And rabbits

11:37.260 --> 11:37.920
Are fair game

11:37.920 --> 11:38.720
No pun intended

11:38.720 --> 11:40.360
I could go on for a while

11:40.360 --> 11:41.320
But I don't like to ramble

11:41.320 --> 11:42.480
This is what I get for

11:42.480 --> 11:43.500
Among other things

11:43.500 --> 11:44.380
Growing up around

11:44.380 --> 11:45.480
An ex-marine area

11:45.480 --> 11:46.460
Which a lot of wilderness

11:46.460 --> 11:47.080
Is available

11:47.080 --> 11:48.440
Several hundred acres

11:48.440 --> 11:49.620
Of which was owed

11:49.620 --> 11:50.380
By my family

11:50.380 --> 11:51.500
So I actually have a place

11:51.500 --> 11:52.220
I could run off to

11:52.220 --> 11:53.080
If the mood struck me

11:53.080 --> 11:53.880
Regards

11:53.880 --> 11:54.600
Bladesjester

11:54.600 --> 11:55.580
Wow

11:55.580 --> 11:56.640
I actually don't think

11:56.640 --> 11:57.620
I don't think

11:57.620 --> 11:58.340
I stumbled through that

11:58.340 --> 11:58.780
Pretty much

11:58.780 --> 11:59.420
That's a pretty good reading

11:59.420 --> 12:01.020
Yeah

12:01.020 --> 12:03.780
So

12:03.780 --> 12:05.100
Since you're a boy scout

12:05.100 --> 12:06.820
What do you think

12:06.820 --> 12:07.220
Of that email

12:07.220 --> 12:07.740
Oh wow

12:07.740 --> 12:11.800
That was very informative

12:11.800 --> 12:12.180
Yeah

12:12.180 --> 12:12.800
He can definitely

12:12.800 --> 12:13.720
He can definitely

12:13.720 --> 12:14.320
Hold his own

12:14.320 --> 12:14.800
In the wilderness

12:14.800 --> 12:15.600
That's for sure

12:15.600 --> 12:17.500
Yeah definitely

12:17.500 --> 12:18.920
I do remember

12:18.920 --> 12:19.600
The roots thing

12:19.600 --> 12:20.400
And I think

12:20.400 --> 12:20.840
I remember that

12:20.840 --> 12:21.720
From wilderness survival

12:21.720 --> 12:22.480
Or camping

12:22.480 --> 12:22.960
Or something

12:22.960 --> 12:24.000
I remember hearing

12:24.000 --> 12:24.300
That

12:24.300 --> 12:26.940
That they were edible

12:26.940 --> 12:27.460
Although I never

12:27.460 --> 12:27.880
Actually heard

12:27.880 --> 12:28.680
The flower thing

12:28.680 --> 12:30.640
And as for

12:30.640 --> 12:31.220
The improvised

12:31.220 --> 12:32.080
Anything and everything

12:32.080 --> 12:32.640
I mean

12:32.640 --> 12:33.680
I really don't expect

12:33.680 --> 12:34.220
Us to go

12:34.220 --> 12:34.860
We're Irish

12:34.860 --> 12:36.020
And you know

12:36.020 --> 12:36.840
Say oh man

12:36.840 --> 12:37.320
We have a bunch

12:37.320 --> 12:37.700
Of matches

12:37.700 --> 12:38.180
Let's go make

12:38.180 --> 12:39.060
A bomb out of it

12:39.060 --> 12:39.600
And I

12:39.600 --> 12:40.800
Yeah

12:40.800 --> 12:42.200
We were kind of

12:42.200 --> 12:42.880
Hoping that common

12:42.880 --> 12:43.900
Sense would prevail

12:43.900 --> 12:44.260
But

12:44.260 --> 12:45.900
That's a very good

12:45.900 --> 12:46.260
Statement

12:46.260 --> 12:46.940
Because you know

12:46.940 --> 12:48.440
There's people

12:48.440 --> 12:50.280
Like Sisyphus

12:50.280 --> 12:51.240
Or Sisyphus

12:51.240 --> 12:53.620
Who just don't know

12:53.620 --> 12:54.100
And they don't get

12:54.100 --> 12:54.620
Into the wilderness

12:54.620 --> 12:55.460
So if they crash

12:55.460 --> 12:55.940
Out there

12:55.940 --> 12:56.880
And they weren't

12:56.880 --> 12:57.420
Paying attention

12:57.420 --> 12:58.040
During the two

12:58.040 --> 12:58.740
Wilderness survival

12:58.740 --> 12:59.140
Episodes

12:59.140 --> 12:59.600
They might try

12:59.600 --> 13:00.060
To do that

13:00.060 --> 13:01.300
No we're not

13:01.300 --> 13:01.900
Making fun of you

13:01.900 --> 13:02.240
Sisyphus

13:02.240 --> 13:03.480
Or Sisyphus

13:03.480 --> 13:04.300
Oh god

13:04.300 --> 13:04.860
Why do they have

13:04.860 --> 13:05.720
Hard to pronounce

13:05.720 --> 13:06.060
Names

13:06.060 --> 13:07.280
Sisyphus

13:07.280 --> 13:09.020
Yeah

13:09.020 --> 13:09.700
That is definitely

13:09.700 --> 13:10.120
An enigma

13:10.120 --> 13:11.920
Yeah

13:11.920 --> 13:12.780
We're not making

13:12.780 --> 13:13.160
Fun of you

13:13.160 --> 13:13.480
We're just

13:13.480 --> 13:15.080
You were

13:15.080 --> 13:15.980
Actually I think

13:15.980 --> 13:16.480
You were the only

13:16.480 --> 13:17.660
Person that emailed

13:17.660 --> 13:18.780
In that did not

13:18.780 --> 13:20.340
That said that

13:20.340 --> 13:21.020
The episode sucked

13:21.020 --> 13:21.280
I got

13:21.280 --> 13:22.720
I did get some

13:22.720 --> 13:23.520
Like fairly good

13:23.520 --> 13:23.900
Reviews

13:23.900 --> 13:24.360
But I also got

13:24.360 --> 13:24.940
Some fairly

13:24.940 --> 13:26.700
Some sort of

13:26.700 --> 13:27.400
Negative reviews

13:27.400 --> 13:28.560
Along the same

13:28.560 --> 13:28.920
Tales

13:28.920 --> 13:29.840
Along the same

13:29.840 --> 13:30.520
Lines of

13:30.520 --> 13:32.000
Oh I think

13:32.000 --> 13:32.500
It's not related

13:32.500 --> 13:32.920
To hacking

13:32.920 --> 13:33.220
But

13:33.220 --> 13:34.120
Oh

13:34.120 --> 13:35.020
Whatever

13:35.020 --> 13:38.460
Our last email

13:38.460 --> 13:39.180
Is from

13:39.180 --> 13:39.860
Another hard

13:39.860 --> 13:40.460
Pronounced name

13:40.460 --> 13:41.580
I'm going to

13:41.580 --> 13:41.880
Guess it

13:41.880 --> 13:42.720
Aridium

13:42.720 --> 13:44.620
You guys have

13:44.620 --> 13:45.320
A very informative

13:45.320 --> 13:46.100
Show that keeps

13:46.100 --> 13:46.580

Whole segment

13:47.880 --> 13:48.960

Listen to it

13:52.380 --> 13:53.220

17:55.360 --> 17:55.460
I

Remember

17:55.660 --> 17:56.120
Correctly

17:56.120 --> 17:56.840
It's

17:56.840 --> 17:57.000
A

17:57.000 --> 17:58.200
It's

17:58.200 --> 17:58.840
It's

17:58.840 --> 17:59.020
Sort of

17:59.020 --> 17:59.140
Like

17:59.140 --> 17:59.240

18:00.560 --> 18:00.720
Like

18:00.720 --> 18:00.960
Oh

18:00.960 --> 18:01.100
This

18:01.100 --> 18:01.420
Program

18:01.420 --> 18:01.540
Is

18:01.540 --> 18:01.680

18:07.380 --> 18:07.900
She

18:10.640 --> 18:10.800
She

18:10.800 --> 18:11.200
Finally

18:11.200 --> 18:11.660

18:14.840 --> 18:15.120
I

18:15.120 --> 18:15.940

All

18:20.200 --> 18:20.480

That's

18:47.680 --> 18:47.800
Just

18:47.800 --> 18:47.980
Me

18:47.980 --> 18:48.200
Because

18:48.200 --> 18:48.380
That's

18:48.380 --> 18:48.480
What

18:48.480 --> 18:48.580
I

18:48.580 --> 18:48.740
Grew

Up

18:50.780 --> 18:51.780
I

18:51.780 --> 18:52.040

19:00.620 --> 19:01.540
I

19:01.540 --> 19:02.740
Think

19:02.740 --> 19:03.780
It's

So

19:04.840 --> 19:04.920
It

19:04.920 --> 19:04.980
Might

19:04.980 --> 19:05.100

19:07.220 --> 19:07.300
I

19:07.300 --> 19:07.420
Think

19:07.420 --> 19:07.500
If

19:07.500 --> 19:07.540
You

19:07.540 --> 19:07.820

19:10.520 --> 19:10.700

19:14.440 --> 19:14.920

19:14.920 --> 19:15.060
I

19:15.060 --> 19:15.140
Was

19:15.140 --> 19:15.340

19:17.180 --> 19:18.000
And

19:18.000 --> 19:18.360
Actually

19:18.360 --> 19:18.520
I

19:18.520 --> 19:18.760
Believe

19:18.760 --> 19:19.040
It's

19:19.040 --> 19:19.800
Written

19:19.800 --> 19:20.540
In

19:20.540 --> 19:20.940
France

19:20.940 --> 19:21.140
Which

19:21.140 --> 19:21.520
Explains

19:21.520 --> 19:26.580
But I think it's also on SourceForge and a few other places.

19:26.900 --> 19:28.300
But it's a fun program.

19:28.720 --> 19:35.060
If you're, you know, you basically, if you want to monitor what the hell is going on in your computer in the background, install this.

19:35.120 --> 19:37.060
And it will tell you every little thing that goes on.

19:37.960 --> 19:39.100
Wow, it looks pretty decent.

19:40.300 --> 19:41.460
How long have you been using it?

19:41.460 --> 19:52.920
I haven't actually really been actively using it for a while, but I've known about it for about a few years, I think.

19:53.060 --> 19:53.440
Oh, wow.

19:53.940 --> 19:56.480
And, yeah, it's a fun program to play with.

19:56.480 --> 20:03.760
If you, you know, for malware analysis, like, it basically says, okay, you just executed this program.

20:04.020 --> 20:06.020
Okay, this program wants to try to make a change to the registry.

20:06.820 --> 20:08.060
Do you want to let us do this?

20:08.300 --> 20:08.620
Yes.

20:08.900 --> 20:12.020
Okay, well, let's try to go out to this website.

20:12.220 --> 20:13.080
Do you want to let us do this?

20:13.220 --> 20:13.480
Okay.

20:14.180 --> 20:16.780
And it, like, basically prompts you through every step it's going.

20:16.940 --> 20:19.060
It's kind of creepy how much you can get down there.

20:19.420 --> 20:19.660
Huh.

20:20.540 --> 20:24.880
Actually, what's even more creepy about it is that because you can find out what's going on,

20:24.880 --> 20:28.820
that means other processes can do it at the same time and relay that back to their mothership.

20:29.300 --> 20:29.700
Woo!

20:29.980 --> 20:30.760
Yes, very true.

20:31.640 --> 20:32.240
Very true.

20:33.980 --> 20:34.600
You know what?

20:34.820 --> 20:38.040
I had a friend of mine give me a website.

20:38.040 --> 20:41.900
I had found a program that I thought was malicious.

20:42.360 --> 20:47.200
I was just surfing around, and I must have picked something up off of a web page.

20:47.440 --> 20:49.380
It's called the Norman Sandbox.

20:49.880 --> 20:52.260
I don't know if you've ever talked about this on the show before or not.

20:53.060 --> 20:53.940
Norman or Truman?

20:54.440 --> 20:55.380
Norman Sandbox.

20:55.380 --> 21:00.060
It's at http, sandbox.norman.no.

21:01.020 --> 21:06.840
And what this site allows you to do is to upload a file, and they will analyze it for you and tell you exactly what it does.

21:07.220 --> 21:08.160
And if they have, like, a...

21:08.160 --> 21:09.360
Oh, yes, I've heard of this.

21:09.420 --> 21:11.100
I actually don't think we've mentioned this on the show before, though.

21:11.200 --> 21:11.580
Oh, okay.

21:11.740 --> 21:12.080
Excellent.

21:12.240 --> 21:16.580
Yeah, I wasn't sure if, uh, I didn't remember if anybody had spoken about it or not.

21:16.580 --> 21:22.360
I have listened to every single episode of BinRev, but there's probably two or three that I may have missed.

21:24.760 --> 21:27.680
Well, it's also, I mean, if we mentioned it, like, you know, four...

21:27.680 --> 21:29.520
We mentioned it about 20 episodes ago.

21:29.640 --> 21:33.080
That's half a year, so a lot of people don't remember that kind of stuff.

21:33.720 --> 21:40.020
Like, I mean, I can't even remember if I talked about my malware analysis box, like, within the past couple of weeks.

21:40.020 --> 21:44.020
Because I'm 26 and I have Alzheimer's, but anyway...

21:44.780 --> 21:51.020
So is this malware analysis box, is this thing completely infested, or...?

21:51.020 --> 21:56.960
Actually, well, besides Windows Live Messenger, it doesn't have anything installed on it right now.

21:57.040 --> 22:01.800
But the idea is the fact that, essentially, it's like a...

22:01.800 --> 22:07.240
Because a lot of, like, new malware, I think we kind of discussed this lightly on the Maloween special,

22:07.240 --> 22:10.440
can actually detect whether or not it's running in a VMware session,

22:10.560 --> 22:12.460
and if it detects that, it doesn't execute.

22:12.620 --> 22:12.840
Right.

22:12.920 --> 22:14.640
So people can't reverse engineer it.

22:15.140 --> 22:19.520
So the idea behind it is you run it on a throwaway box,

22:19.580 --> 22:21.940
and then you just reformat it after every time it gets infected.

22:22.300 --> 22:22.640
Wow.

22:24.000 --> 22:27.200
And actually, what I was talking about was Truman, which is...

22:27.200 --> 22:28.620
I think we've talked about it before.

22:28.980 --> 22:32.620
And it's a bootable CD that automates a lot of the install process.

22:32.620 --> 22:34.000
And it was a pretty good...

22:34.000 --> 22:37.860
It's a pretty nice bootable CD for Linux-based distros.

22:40.300 --> 22:44.700
Automates a lot of the reinstall and analysis box.

22:45.040 --> 22:45.800
And if you run it...

22:45.800 --> 22:49.260
You can actually run it on two separate computers and have it...

22:49.260 --> 22:52.040
So one of the computers is the sacrificial lamb,

22:52.460 --> 22:55.800
and you only have it connected up to the computer running the Truman CD.

22:56.300 --> 22:59.360
And the Truman CD emulates basically the entire Internet.

22:59.660 --> 22:59.940
Wow.

22:59.940 --> 23:01.860
So you can bring up, like, bankofamerica.com,

23:02.200 --> 23:04.940
and it'll sort of put up a faux Bank of America site.

23:05.120 --> 23:05.400
Wow.

23:05.580 --> 23:08.120
And that's what the analysis...

23:08.120 --> 23:11.460
And that's what the piece of malware is looking for.

23:11.580 --> 23:12.840
So it was pretty cool.

23:14.120 --> 23:16.980
I haven't had enough time to play with it, but it seems very interesting.

23:17.220 --> 23:18.440
It was definitely...

23:18.440 --> 23:21.340
And I think it was, like, only made by one guy, which is doubly impressive.

23:21.540 --> 23:21.800
Yeah.

23:22.000 --> 23:22.760
I'll have to check that out.

23:22.800 --> 23:23.580
It sounds like a lot of fun.

23:24.840 --> 23:25.040
Yeah.

23:26.740 --> 23:27.260
All right.

23:27.260 --> 23:29.420
Do we want to segue into our main show topic?

23:29.940 --> 23:30.200
Sure.

23:30.340 --> 23:30.900
Sounds good to me.

23:32.460 --> 23:32.860
All right.

23:33.660 --> 23:34.940
Well, our main show topic...

23:34.940 --> 23:37.080
What is our main show topic tonight?

23:37.180 --> 23:38.420
We'll let you take it, because...

23:38.420 --> 23:38.960
Corporate...

23:38.960 --> 23:39.400
Exactly.

23:42.160 --> 23:44.240
Another one of these people who email us in saying,

23:44.320 --> 23:47.080
I want to talk about this, and I have some credentials to do it.

23:47.140 --> 23:49.180
And we're like, all right, type up some notes.

23:51.180 --> 23:52.080
Corporate FNS.

23:52.100 --> 23:53.040
So, yes, you too.

23:53.300 --> 23:54.780
You too can be on BINREV Radio.

23:54.780 --> 23:54.840
Yeah.

23:56.720 --> 23:59.880
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to your forum.

24:00.600 --> 24:03.520
This really is a really friendly forum.

24:04.480 --> 24:10.140
I've pretty much been here since day one, downloading episodes, and it's always been friendly.

24:10.260 --> 24:11.160
It's always been informative.

24:14.300 --> 24:16.500
Well, sometimes we're not friendly, but only the noobs.

24:16.500 --> 24:19.680
We don't like noobs.

24:20.000 --> 24:21.220
No, we welcome the noobs.

24:21.460 --> 24:21.820
Absolutely.

24:22.180 --> 24:23.200
The noobs are our friends.

24:23.260 --> 24:24.780
Everyone was a noob at one time.

24:25.080 --> 24:25.300
Everyone.

24:25.920 --> 24:26.320
Exactly.

24:26.560 --> 24:30.600
That is my motto in life, whenever someone starts talking.

24:30.760 --> 24:31.880
Oh, the noobs are here.

24:32.020 --> 24:33.700
Dude, you were a noob too once.

24:34.880 --> 24:36.460
Welcome the noobs into our family.

24:36.740 --> 24:37.180
That's right.

24:37.280 --> 24:37.680
Absolutely.

24:37.680 --> 24:41.080
Well, I'm going to...

24:41.080 --> 24:41.360
All right.

24:41.420 --> 24:42.080
So, what are you talking about?

24:43.280 --> 24:45.460
Let's actually start with corporate epigenance.

24:46.380 --> 24:51.520
For the two people that have been living in the cave for the past 10 or so years, what is corporate espionage?

24:51.600 --> 24:53.180
We're just going to gloss over that for...

24:53.180 --> 24:57.100
Well, espionage, and this is directly from Wikipedia.

24:57.320 --> 25:02.600
It's the practice of obtaining information about an organization or society that is considered secret or confidential

25:02.600 --> 25:05.420
without the permission of the holder of the information.

25:05.420 --> 25:17.580
That's pretty much in a nutshell, but corporate espionage, it's primarily, you know, every company that is profitable in this,

25:17.660 --> 25:25.420
it does well in this world, in corporate America or even, you know, corporate, global corporate doings,

25:26.180 --> 25:30.420
it's because that they can do something better that the competition can't,

25:30.420 --> 25:39.420
whether it's making hairspray or shoes or cars or hard drives or whatever, you name it, pharmaceuticals.

25:40.660 --> 25:45.880
So, you know, corporate espionage can pretty much be anything now,

25:45.960 --> 25:53.600
especially with databases, you know, being worth so much money because they're used for nefarious purposes

25:53.600 --> 25:59.800
like identity theft and, you know, the list is pretty much never-ending these days.

26:01.200 --> 26:01.460
Mm-hmm.

26:02.800 --> 26:12.880
It's, you know, it can be anything from, you know, I mean, people say, when I, I've known that this is going to be important

26:12.880 --> 26:15.380
for corporations to address for a long time.

26:15.380 --> 26:20.540
And six or seven years ago when I would tell people, hey, you know, you should have someone come in

26:20.540 --> 26:23.080
and do a sweep of your offices for bugs once a year.

26:23.500 --> 26:29.800
You should have an outside organization come in and audit your internal IT systems once a year.

26:30.540 --> 26:34.920
They would sit there and laugh at me, like, you know, who would want to come in here and break into our servers?

26:35.520 --> 26:42.380
You know, well, we only do A or we only do B or no one's interested in hairspray or no one's interested in,

26:42.380 --> 26:50.040
you know, I don't know, paper, you know, insert thing that you can get at Walmart here.

26:50.280 --> 26:56.000
You know, pretty much anything that you see on the shelf at Walmart can be a target for corporate espionage

26:56.000 --> 26:59.520
because not only product design is stuff, but pricing.

27:00.360 --> 27:04.200
You know, if you can undercut your competition these days by two or three cents,

27:04.460 --> 27:08.800
you're going to get the business because companies are very, very price conscious these days.

27:08.800 --> 27:14.340
So how much people pay for different things is very important.

27:19.200 --> 27:20.020
That's interesting.

27:20.980 --> 27:27.380
So, all right, since we're talking about, like, you know, people who come in and, you know,

27:27.420 --> 27:32.620
sweep or try to break into our systems or sweep for bugs or audit the IT logs,

27:32.700 --> 27:36.060
I mean, that's sort of like secure, that's all InfoSec, right?

27:36.120 --> 27:37.580
Right, yep, absolutely, yep.

27:37.580 --> 27:45.020
Yeah, and what's the type of corporate espionage you're seeing now is, well, for example, the HP debacle.

27:46.600 --> 27:50.120
For those of you that aren't familiar with the HP debacle,

27:51.120 --> 27:56.540
there was one of the board members on the board of directors was leaking information to the press.

27:57.320 --> 28:01.160
And the board of directors, the CEO, was it the CEO?

28:02.420 --> 28:03.640
I believe it was the CEO.

28:03.720 --> 28:05.140
Yeah, she said, you know what?

28:05.140 --> 28:09.320
I think it was the CEO and the general counsel that decided to go, not see on everybody.

28:09.400 --> 28:13.800
This is a bunch of BS, and we want to find out who's doing it.

28:13.860 --> 28:23.600
So they used a term called pre-texting, where you gather information about phone calls and who you call,

28:23.600 --> 28:29.300
and, you know, all that information that, you know, can be used.

28:29.420 --> 28:37.560
I mean, even dumpster diving, you can't, you cannot imagine how much information you can gain about a company by dumpster diving.

28:37.560 --> 28:46.820
And if you're in other companies that's in, you know, a fierce competition, automotive companies are extremely competitive.

28:48.920 --> 28:54.140
Products like plasma TVs, electronics are extremely competitive.

28:54.140 --> 29:01.120
For example, have you ever noticed how Honda's little robot, what's it called, the Ameo or whatever?

29:02.520 --> 29:05.320
Yeah, I think it was like the Asimov.

29:05.520 --> 29:05.840
Asimov.

29:05.840 --> 29:06.900
And then there's another one.

29:07.760 --> 29:11.460
Yeah, well, did you ever notice how those things are, you never see them by themselves.

29:11.600 --> 29:15.320
There's always six or seven guys that are just standing around very, very close.

29:15.320 --> 29:23.000
Honda has a lot of very cutting-edge technology in one of those robots.

29:23.620 --> 29:28.160
And the worst thing to happen to one of those robots is to have somebody walk away with one.

29:28.440 --> 29:30.920
You can't put a price on innovation.

29:31.740 --> 29:33.180
You really can't.

29:33.640 --> 29:38.960
Or even with the Asimov, you can have the robot walk off by itself, which is even doubly bad.

29:39.020 --> 29:40.100
Oh, absolutely, yeah.

29:41.200 --> 29:43.300
GM learned this a few years ago.

29:43.300 --> 29:51.200
So they were going to beat everyone to the punch, and they were going to start making cars in China under a GM nameplate

29:51.200 --> 29:53.140
and bringing them back to the U.S. to sell them.

29:53.500 --> 29:55.220
And they were the first company to do this.

29:56.280 --> 30:03.660
So they started sending over all the CAD data, and they went through about six or seven different Chinese suppliers.

30:04.860 --> 30:09.220
And these Chinese suppliers decided, hey, you know what?

30:09.240 --> 30:10.920
We've got enough of the information here.

30:10.920 --> 30:13.720
We can build our own assembly line.

30:14.460 --> 30:16.140
And that's exactly what they did.

30:16.180 --> 30:17.160
And they released a car.

30:17.940 --> 30:23.080
Cherry Automotive released a car that looked just like GMs about a year before.

30:23.420 --> 30:24.040
And you know why?

30:24.100 --> 30:25.700
Because they didn't have to do any of the design.

30:26.040 --> 30:28.460
All they had to do was manufacture from the CAD drawing.

30:29.140 --> 30:32.860
And it went in front of a judge, and the judge says, nope, these are two completely different vehicles.

30:32.860 --> 30:39.120
And, yeah, if you just search on Google for GM cherry debacle, you'll see what I'm talking about.

30:39.300 --> 30:40.560
It's their identity.

30:40.560 --> 30:43.500
So just out of curiosity, was the judge American or was the judge Chinese?

30:43.620 --> 30:44.740
No, the judge was Chinese.

30:45.320 --> 30:45.460
Yeah.

30:45.620 --> 30:47.920
There's no introduction to property law in China.

30:48.340 --> 30:54.860
So you think that if you release it in China, you know, you have to be ready for it to be copied as soon as you release it.

30:54.860 --> 30:59.060
And that's primarily what people are looking for.

30:59.160 --> 31:05.820
They're looking for things that are in, like, research and development or, you know, mergers these days.

31:05.860 --> 31:13.400
I mean, not to interrupt you, but going back to this, going back to, like, not we're trying to knock on Chinese here,

31:13.400 --> 31:20.560
but there was – I was reading – I was actually on the radio yesterday or the day before on the business section.

31:20.740 --> 31:26.900
They were talking about this company in – who makes, like, diamond cutting tools.

31:27.160 --> 31:27.520
Oh, okay.

31:27.520 --> 31:32.120
And they're at their trade show, and they're like, oh, you know, we're pumping all this stuff out.

31:32.300 --> 31:32.820
We're cool.

31:32.940 --> 31:33.520
We're awesome.

31:33.700 --> 31:34.420
Buy our stuff.

31:34.560 --> 31:39.620
And they're walking along, and all of a sudden they see this Chinese booth, and they're like, this is the same exact thing.

31:39.820 --> 31:40.080
Yeah.

31:40.080 --> 31:44.380
They're like, oh, you know – oh, buy our stuff.

31:45.040 --> 31:46.480
I'm like, actually, I shouldn't say that.

31:46.520 --> 31:47.020
This is bad.

31:47.320 --> 31:49.020
And they're like, it's the same exact thing.

31:50.380 --> 31:57.780
But the amusing part was they saw this, called their legal department up, and the legal department flew out,

31:57.780 --> 32:03.600
made sure it was the same thing, went to the – whatever they were doing.

32:03.620 --> 32:06.480
I think it was the U.S. courts or federal courts.

32:06.480 --> 32:12.780
And, you know, presented their case and got an injunction for it, and they served them papers right on the trade show floor,

32:12.980 --> 32:15.320
which I thought was just, like, a great move.

32:15.520 --> 32:15.740
Wow.

32:15.740 --> 32:18.040
And they had to, like, shut their booth down for the rest of the show.

32:18.400 --> 32:18.700
Wow.

32:19.460 --> 32:23.000
Yeah, you know, you're going to find out that there's really nothing you can do.

32:23.760 --> 32:25.240
It's really a losing battle.

32:25.240 --> 32:31.520
So, once you release something into commerce, it's going to be copied so rapidly, it's ridiculous.

32:34.860 --> 32:35.960
And that's –

32:35.960 --> 32:38.180
And when you're talking –

32:38.180 --> 32:45.640
A perfect example is, you know how they have those magnetic, those yellow ribbons that were on the back of the cars?

32:45.880 --> 32:46.580
I don't know.

32:46.700 --> 32:48.240
Oh, the things that are everywhere?

32:48.500 --> 32:49.160
Yeah, they're everywhere.

32:49.340 --> 32:52.240
Well, the guy that makes those, he just started doing those in his garage.

32:52.360 --> 32:56.240
He was selling, like, I don't know, something ridiculous, like $25,000 a week or something.

32:56.800 --> 33:03.700
Well, the market's been completely saturated by Chinese makers of those things that can make them for a penny a piece,

33:04.240 --> 33:05.320
and they look identical.

33:05.320 --> 33:11.680
And, you know, there's no way for him to combat that because it's just – it's the market's saturated, really.

33:13.900 --> 33:15.500
Well, there's two sides to that coin.

33:15.500 --> 33:20.980
I mean, it's very sad that this guy's going out of business, but at the same point, the capitalist side of me goes, well, tough shit.

33:21.780 --> 33:22.740
Yeah, absolutely.

33:23.300 --> 33:27.740
In the same respect, you have, you know, like corporations like pharmaceutical companies.

33:29.140 --> 33:36.940
Pharmaceutical companies probably take corporate espionage a lot more seriously than most just because of the reason of the formulation.

33:36.940 --> 33:42.980
They spend so much money to get a pill to a point where it actually works, Viagra, for example.

33:42.980 --> 33:49.400
I mean, can you imagine if, you know, it takes them 10 years to develop the formula for that pill,

33:49.500 --> 33:55.780
and somebody can just hack into a computer, burn all the information onto a CD, and walk out with it.

33:56.220 --> 34:00.260
And, you know, they've spent literally billions and billions of dollars to develop it.

34:01.260 --> 34:04.040
The same thing happens is happening in your company today.

34:04.040 --> 34:10.660
If you have contractors working for you or, you know, I don't care what business you're in, Hairspray, for example.

34:10.820 --> 34:19.280
Hairspray is a $200 billion a year business, and everybody is looking for, you know, the better, faster, cheaper way to make a bottle of Hairspray.

34:19.280 --> 34:24.000
And there's nothing to keep an employee from, you know, hiring a guy.

34:24.120 --> 34:31.520
He comes in, he drops the whole hard drive of his computer and all of your information onto a disc, and walks out, and you never see him again.

34:32.560 --> 34:40.780
You know, corporations are starting to look at ways that they can track and limit how much information you can see and look up and everything else.

34:40.780 --> 34:54.120
And as recent as two or three years ago, I was working for a, in a healthcare contract for about a year.

34:54.600 --> 34:58.800
And I had access to all the major health insurance companies' databases.

34:59.440 --> 35:04.280
And I could go in there and type in Smith, and it would pull up hundreds of thousands of records.

35:05.180 --> 35:08.200
And I said, you know, this just isn't, this isn't right.

35:08.300 --> 35:10.380
This isn't the way that this should be designed.

35:10.380 --> 35:12.960
It should be limited by several factors.

35:13.700 --> 35:20.840
And so I tried to contact him and, you know, tell the, I don't know, database administrator or whoever, what was wrong with it

35:20.840 --> 35:23.480
and what kind of limitations they should put into place.

35:24.120 --> 35:29.100
And he said, yeah, you know what, I told my bosses the same thing, but we just don't have budget for it.

35:30.400 --> 35:37.640
So, you know, in corporate America, you have to be able to quantify spending money to protect these things.

35:37.640 --> 35:44.400
And let's face it, your business these days is IT, whether you want to face it or not.

35:45.160 --> 35:51.040
All your customer information is on computers, all of your, everything you do, all your e-mails on computers.

35:51.700 --> 35:58.940
I mean, I can think of no business in the world that doesn't e-mail, doesn't play at least a small part in it.

35:58.940 --> 36:07.100
I'm trying to think of an example just to, like, be funny, but honestly, I really can't.

36:08.020 --> 36:15.400
I'm guessing, like, you know, the person shoveling shit in Louisiana, like, really doesn't need e-mail, but, I mean, they could.

36:15.520 --> 36:16.000
They could.

36:16.160 --> 36:16.540
Who knows?

36:16.660 --> 36:17.240
You'd be surprised.

36:17.380 --> 36:23.080
That guy now is putting that in plastic bags, and he's selling it as fertilizer, gourmet fertilizer.

36:23.800 --> 36:25.240
JoeBob at Shitshoveler.com.

36:25.260 --> 36:25.440
Absolutely.

36:25.560 --> 36:25.740
Yep.

36:25.760 --> 36:31.080
He's got his own website because it's, you know, $0.99 or $1.99 a month now for a website.

36:31.260 --> 36:32.620
So, yeah, he's got his own website.

36:32.620 --> 36:36.260
I really wonder if Shitshoveler.com is something.

36:36.980 --> 36:37.600
I bet it is.

36:37.720 --> 36:39.120
Oh, man.

36:40.820 --> 36:42.200
Yeah, you know what?

36:42.320 --> 36:43.220
Buy our shit.

36:44.040 --> 36:45.880
Yeah, God only knows what's on there.

36:48.160 --> 36:56.760
Yeah, I almost went up and, like, started typing it into my web browser, and I was like, you know, that could just be a bad thing.

36:56.760 --> 37:02.360
I really don't want to look at that web page, especially while I'm recording right now, because that could be a bad reaction.

37:02.620 --> 37:06.760
So, you'll start hearing me going, oh, dear Lord, oh, oh, my God, my eyes.

37:07.900 --> 37:11.160
So, we might save that until after the show.

37:12.120 --> 37:12.340
Yeah.

37:12.420 --> 37:18.480
Some other things that corporate espionage or people look for is, like, source code for software.

37:18.480 --> 37:33.120
You know, manufacturing and technical operations, target markets, prospect information, plant closures, you know, business methods, product designs, research, alliance and contract arrangements.

37:33.120 --> 37:40.880
It's just watching where the executive of a competitor's board goes to.

37:40.980 --> 37:43.020
You know, are they spending a lot of time in South Africa?

37:43.180 --> 37:45.080
Why are they spending time in South Africa?

37:45.400 --> 37:46.580
Who are they meeting with?

37:46.680 --> 37:51.200
You know, what kind of alliances are they trying to create?

37:51.200 --> 37:58.660
You know, all those things in today's market, you know, they can make a lot of money, a lot of money.

37:58.780 --> 38:01.460
It's very important to know what your competition is doing.

38:03.220 --> 38:04.860
Well, not even on the competition side.

38:04.980 --> 38:15.400
I mean, I could really see that as being, you know, if I know that the, you know, crazy straight hairspray company is coming out with a new product,

38:15.400 --> 38:19.900
and they're a publicly traded company as, like, an end consumer, that could be very handy for me.

38:19.980 --> 38:26.860
You know, if I find out that they're announcing their new product about two weeks from now, I invest heavily in their stock, I could probably make a pretty penny.

38:27.040 --> 38:29.220
I could probably go to federal pounding in the ass prison.

38:29.360 --> 38:30.020
Yeah, absolutely.

38:30.040 --> 38:31.060
But I'm not sure that's not legal.

38:31.300 --> 38:31.540
Yeah.

38:32.820 --> 38:40.280
Yeah, one of the things you see these days is the old pump and dump scam due to.

38:40.380 --> 38:42.520
Oh, God, that's getting really pissed me off lately.

38:42.600 --> 38:44.160
Yeah, you know what you never hear about?

38:44.160 --> 38:52.020
You never hear about all these computers that people are trading, like Scott Trade and E-Trade and Ameritrade and all those accounts.

38:52.400 --> 38:57.920
When those accounts get hacked, you know, you have the ability to buy stock with those accounts.

38:58.240 --> 39:01.380
And that's right there an easy way to pump and dump a stock.

39:01.440 --> 39:02.380
And you never hear about that.

39:02.720 --> 39:07.820
You know, the things that these companies try to keep quiet, it's amazing.

39:07.820 --> 39:19.920
I mean, I've been in, let's just say, situations where things have happened at a company and they don't want to bring in any outside help.

39:20.380 --> 39:22.100
They don't want you to call the FBI.

39:22.240 --> 39:23.660
They don't want you to call the Secret Service.

39:23.780 --> 39:27.820
They want to keep it internal because they're afraid that, of course, it'll get into the media.

39:27.820 --> 39:29.420
It'll be an embarrassment.

39:29.960 --> 39:31.360
The stock price will go down.

39:31.640 --> 39:34.120
You know, consumer confidence in the corporation will go down.

39:34.840 --> 39:36.280
And it's amazing.

39:36.560 --> 39:38.020
It's just, it's absolutely amazing.

39:38.160 --> 39:41.440
They would rather just patch things up instead of fixing them properly.

39:42.180 --> 39:47.340
Or, you know, let's just say it's a lot easier these days to get funding for an audit.

39:47.340 --> 39:56.180
Well, I mean, there's some point to it, but it's a very tricky situation.

39:56.860 --> 40:01.940
I'm, from the technical aspect, it's a lot of, I mean, you outlined a lot of the reasons.

40:02.100 --> 40:05.860
I mean, from the technical aspect, technical viewpoint of it, it's very cut and dry.

40:05.980 --> 40:07.140
It's like, okay, we've been hacked.

40:07.240 --> 40:12.800
We need to contact the FBI, contact the upstream provider, tell these people they've been hacked because they've attacked us.

40:12.800 --> 40:21.320
But when you start throwing in all these little, I don't know, corporate variables, it becomes an entirely different matter.

40:21.660 --> 40:30.260
So it's a very, it's an interesting conundrum, and we see that a lot every day.

40:30.380 --> 40:41.440
I mean, how many times, before this whole California law of, you know, you need to tell people that when their docs accidentally might get stolen or got hacked.

40:41.440 --> 40:43.340
Oh, yeah, the Scalic Breach Act.

40:43.400 --> 40:48.080
I mean, everyone, yep, everyone started coming out of the woodwork saying, oh, we got hacked.

40:48.480 --> 40:50.080
Oh, yeah, we got hacked last week.

40:50.620 --> 40:52.160
And, yep, this week, too.

40:52.860 --> 40:57.100
And, oh, apparently our backup tapes got stolen from a FedEx truck.

40:57.500 --> 40:59.220
And we had never heard that before.

40:59.220 --> 41:06.220
And the only reason it's coming out of the woodwork now is because it's, they don't want to go to federal pounding or California pounding in the ass prison.

41:06.220 --> 41:09.440
Yeah, you know, it's amazing.

41:09.540 --> 41:13.120
All these laws came out, and there's a few other ones, too, if I can mention those real quick.

41:13.200 --> 41:17.640
There's a law, HIPAA, which is the health care information.

41:18.020 --> 41:22.340
Health and Privacy something action.

41:22.340 --> 41:26.620
Can you believe that no one's ever been prosecuted under that law?

41:27.260 --> 41:27.760
And I can.

41:28.360 --> 41:30.520
Because no one knows what the law damn thing is.

41:30.640 --> 41:37.540
I mean, I've run into people who get paid high amounts of money having to deal with this law because I occasionally deal with the medical profession.

41:38.120 --> 41:39.380
And they're like, I don't know what it is.

41:40.080 --> 41:41.740
Geez, I just try to make it secure.

41:42.100 --> 41:44.240
I'm like, oh, that inspires me with confidence.

41:44.240 --> 41:54.380
Yeah, you know, to be honest with you, it would be pretty easy if they just policed it a little bit or if they asked for people to submit anonymous, you know, like a tip line or something like that.

41:55.140 --> 41:57.360
The reason they didn't do it is because it's a paper tiger.

41:57.760 --> 42:04.800
Now, everyone, these days, the buzzword is Sarbanes-Oxley and the California Breach Act.

42:04.900 --> 42:10.280
Well, everyone's just kind of sitting back and waiting to see if they're going to be enforced.

42:12.360 --> 42:14.320
Let me give you an example.

42:15.200 --> 42:15.980
Credit card fraud.

42:17.400 --> 42:27.580
Credit card fraud costs Visa and MasterCard, American Express, and, you know, all the banking industries billions and billions and billions and billions and billions of dollars.

42:27.580 --> 42:29.920
I mean, it's rampant.

42:30.280 --> 42:33.660
I mean, you can go to any website and buy 100 credit card numbers for $50.

42:34.300 --> 42:35.720
It's just absolutely rampant.

42:35.720 --> 42:48.860
Yeah, I think on Tracksploits at Hope 2K – Hope No. 6 or whatever they called it this year, Tracksploits, so you can download it off their – it's a presentation.

42:49.060 --> 42:50.120
You can download it off their website.

42:50.120 --> 43:08.960
Secure Science Corporation, they basically kept track of all the credit card numbers they got, and they did some extrapolation of some – I think it was like the FBI says the average credit card fraud cost a person, you know, $200 or something.

43:08.960 --> 43:15.240
And they multiplied it all out, and it came out to be like, you know, some obscene number.

43:15.380 --> 43:17.220
And I think – I'm pretty sure it was in the billions.

43:17.420 --> 43:18.020
Right, right.

43:18.020 --> 43:22.180
And that was just the information they got out of one company out of how many.

43:22.240 --> 43:22.660
Right, exactly.

43:22.980 --> 43:25.140
Yeah, well, let me tell you something.

43:25.140 --> 43:32.980
They haven't done anything to the credit card in my wallet to, like, add a pin to it or my picture or anything like that to make that go away.

43:33.080 --> 43:33.880
So what does that tell you?

43:33.940 --> 43:39.900
That tells me that they're making so much money that they don't even care that they have $200 billion worth of fraud.

43:41.560 --> 43:45.260
And they're making it easier for fraud, I mean, with the whole RFID thing.

43:45.520 --> 43:47.920
Oh, yeah, just wave your wallet in front of this thing.

43:48.560 --> 43:49.560
No, thank you.

43:49.900 --> 43:50.240
Yeah, exactly.

43:51.760 --> 43:53.560
I'll just keep it in my pocket, thanks.

43:53.660 --> 43:53.900
Yeah.

43:53.900 --> 43:57.060
And you can keep your RFID off my wallet.

43:57.100 --> 44:03.460
Well, I'll tell you who should be immediately fired this year is whoever came out at Best Buy.

44:03.540 --> 44:11.220
One of the executives opened his mouth and said that $46 million worth of gift cards don't get cashed every year and expire.

44:11.720 --> 44:13.620
So that's 100% pure profit.

44:13.760 --> 44:17.980
$46 million of those gift cards never even get used, and they expire within a year.

44:19.400 --> 44:20.600
Oh, not in Massachusetts.

44:20.860 --> 44:21.640
Those are valid for longer?

44:21.640 --> 44:26.860
In Massachusetts, they – no, I don't think they can expire in Massachusetts according to state law.

44:26.920 --> 44:27.320
Oh, wow.

44:28.420 --> 44:28.700
Wow.

44:29.040 --> 44:35.920
Yeah, there was a huge stink about it when they first started coming out that there was convenience fees and all this kind of other stuff.

44:35.920 --> 44:39.560
And I've got to say, the legislature did jump into action.

44:39.700 --> 44:42.000
It's like, uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh, I can't do that.

44:43.360 --> 44:47.400
I think they can expire at some point, but it has to be at least like five years.

44:47.540 --> 44:47.920
Oh, wow.

44:48.120 --> 44:51.760
It must be unique for that state because I think most states are within one year.

44:53.120 --> 44:56.740
Yeah, no, we are one of the few states that have a law like that.

44:56.740 --> 44:58.620
Well, can you imagine that number?

44:58.780 --> 45:00.760
I mean, why would you tell anybody that number?

45:00.920 --> 45:07.480
That should be a closely guarded number how many of those cards don't get used because people are going to think twice about getting them for people.

45:08.920 --> 45:13.020
You know, that's what you call a release of information that shouldn't be released.

45:13.180 --> 45:14.020
Better kept –

45:14.020 --> 45:19.340
Or people that do have it are going to think, oh, crap, I'm not going to let them take my damn money because that's mine.

45:19.340 --> 45:21.300
Yeah, $46 million in L.A.

45:21.300 --> 45:21.600
You know what?

45:21.640 --> 45:26.420
Let me see if I can Google that up real quick because I want to give an absolute number.

45:27.980 --> 45:30.020
Yeah, it was a sizable amount.

45:30.220 --> 45:34.860
When I heard it, I was like, wow, God, who does that?

45:35.680 --> 45:36.960
That's just crazy talk.

45:37.140 --> 45:41.640
I mean, I couldn't even – when I get gifts to tickets, they're usually spent within a week.

45:41.860 --> 45:43.500
Oh, great, toys.

45:44.120 --> 45:44.360
Yeah.

45:44.980 --> 45:46.520
Because that was a big list.

45:46.640 --> 45:47.760
I mean, sometimes –

45:47.760 --> 45:48.420
$43 million.

45:48.520 --> 45:49.060
$43 million?

45:49.060 --> 45:55.240
And Gizmodo, $43 million from unused gift cards fiscal year 2006.

45:56.600 --> 45:57.040
Unbelievable.

45:57.420 --> 45:58.040
Pure profit.

45:58.160 --> 46:00.160
That's $43 million profit.

46:01.880 --> 46:03.640
So you got a gift certificate this year.

46:03.720 --> 46:05.280
Go out and spend it and screw Best Buy.

46:05.660 --> 46:07.940
Stank will give you a kiss or something.

46:08.380 --> 46:16.800
I guess Massachusetts, California, Washington, and Louisiana, the cards do not expire.

46:16.800 --> 46:18.500
So, yes, you are correct, Mr. Red.

46:19.460 --> 46:20.640
Okay, so they don't expire.

46:20.760 --> 46:27.920
I just thought it was really – I think, like, after five years, they can start charging, like, a 10% fee per year or something, maybe.

46:28.000 --> 46:28.440
I don't know.

46:29.480 --> 46:31.800
Five years just rattles around in my head or something.

46:31.800 --> 46:33.060
But who knows?

46:33.060 --> 46:34.620
I could be talking out of my ass.

46:35.560 --> 46:36.780
I do that a lot on this show.

46:36.780 --> 46:40.820
So how can you fight corporate espionage?

46:40.820 --> 46:42.960
Let's talk about a few ways to fight it.

46:43.680 --> 46:45.080
One is background checks.

46:46.460 --> 46:54.360
I was sitting in a boardroom with some executives, and they were telling me how they deal with a billion dollars in cash a day and stuff.

46:54.420 --> 46:57.800
And I said, well, you know, I would really like everyone to have a background check.

46:57.800 --> 46:59.180
And they all started laughing.

46:59.260 --> 47:00.080
They thought I was joking.

47:00.320 --> 47:02.080
And I said, no, actually, I'm not joking.

47:02.480 --> 47:04.280
Everyone in this room should have a background check.

47:04.940 --> 47:08.900
And even then, you know, they wouldn't do it because of whatever reason.

47:08.900 --> 47:16.780
I mean, half of them had probably, you know, had stuff, you know, disorderly conducts and stuff in college that they would never want brought up again.

47:16.920 --> 47:18.220
But who knows?

47:18.280 --> 47:19.400
They could have had a felony also.

47:20.100 --> 47:20.540
You know what I mean?

47:21.160 --> 47:24.340
They'll find out what they're listening about that goat in that time in Louisiana.

47:25.900 --> 47:26.300
Absolutely.

47:27.860 --> 47:28.820
Yeah, you know, I went in.

47:28.900 --> 47:30.620
The goat enjoyed it really, Foster.

47:30.760 --> 47:35.220
The more questions I asked, the more they really couldn't give me answers.

47:35.220 --> 47:40.320
Like, for example, they used a machine to wire money all over the world.

47:40.400 --> 47:43.620
And I said, how many people have the information to this computer?

47:43.900 --> 47:48.160
And the one guy says, oh, no, just me and this other guy, just me and this other guy.

47:48.980 --> 47:53.060
And the girl walks up and says, oh, no, Jill and Kelly both have it also.

47:53.140 --> 47:55.740
Remember that time you went golfing and we had to do that wire transfer?

47:56.520 --> 48:01.660
So here, these two people had this information, and the one girl had left to go work someplace else.

48:01.660 --> 48:04.500
They never even changed the username and password for the stuff.

48:05.800 --> 48:06.120
Yeah.

48:06.620 --> 48:09.100
So, you know, stuff like that happens all the time.

48:09.180 --> 48:12.940
And it's just – it's only a matter of time before it comes back to bite them in the butt.

48:14.380 --> 48:14.900
Oh, yeah.

48:14.980 --> 48:19.680
So, I mean, it's – I don't think it's a matter of time.

48:19.760 --> 48:22.400
I think it's very much – but it is very much Russian roulette.

48:22.400 --> 48:29.420
I mean, there are times where – there are times where, like, that was a perfect example.

48:29.880 --> 48:37.440
You know, CEO and the CFO are out, you know, having martinis on the golf course, doing a, you know, round of nine holes.

48:37.440 --> 48:45.220
And we need to transfer this funds over to, you know, our private Cayman Islands offshore holding account, like, yesterday.

48:45.480 --> 48:46.760
And we need to do this.

48:46.820 --> 48:49.100
So, okay, we'll just do it this one time.

48:49.760 --> 48:52.140
And it's always, you know, oh, it's that one time.

48:52.320 --> 48:57.880
It's not a question of, you know, if the person's trustworthy, you're fine, but how do you know that?

48:57.880 --> 48:58.080
Right.

48:58.080 --> 49:00.780
And that goes back to what you were talking about with background checks, you know.

49:01.020 --> 49:03.780
Does that person have a felony conviction for wire fraud?

49:04.200 --> 49:06.720
Okay, that's a person you really don't want to be giving that password to.

49:06.740 --> 49:07.100
Right, right.

49:07.340 --> 49:10.440
With that Cayman Islands offshore holding fund, you're really not falling.

49:10.440 --> 49:10.900
Right, exactly.

49:10.900 --> 49:11.860
You just want to get rid of that one.

49:11.880 --> 49:12.140
Exactly.

49:12.300 --> 49:18.520
$50 million might be a little bit too much of a draw for them.

49:18.600 --> 49:19.520
Tempting targets for them.

49:19.520 --> 49:19.840
Exactly.

49:20.080 --> 49:21.920
A temptation for them to resist.

49:23.900 --> 49:24.920
Yeah, isn't it amazing?

49:25.240 --> 49:27.680
You know, you give them $50 million and you just get a receipt back for $5 million.

49:27.680 --> 49:29.000
Oh, where'd this $45 million go?

49:29.120 --> 49:30.640
Oh, I don't know.

49:30.700 --> 49:31.860
Isn't that amazing how you just...

49:31.860 --> 49:33.560
Hold on, I've got to go to my Lexus dealership.

49:33.580 --> 49:36.220
...wire money into an account, you know, from halfway around the world.

49:36.640 --> 49:39.240
Oh, it's just amazing these days, the stuff you can do.

49:39.680 --> 49:39.920
Mm-hmm.

49:42.460 --> 49:43.400
Yeah, I'm actually...

49:43.400 --> 49:47.480
I've never actually done that, but it always seems very interesting, the fact that I can go.

49:47.480 --> 49:49.760
It's like, all right, let me go...

49:49.760 --> 49:54.520
It's always cool when you hear, okay, we just wired that over to the bank in Hong Kong.

49:54.520 --> 49:57.740
And I was like, whoa, okay, that's kind of creepy.

49:57.900 --> 49:59.980
Yeah, it takes like three seconds to...

49:59.980 --> 50:01.280
And you get a confirmation number.

50:02.000 --> 50:04.140
I was like, okay, everything okay?

50:04.360 --> 50:05.000
Everything's okay?

50:05.260 --> 50:06.020
Was that the right amount?

50:06.200 --> 50:06.920
Yeah, that was the right amount.

50:07.040 --> 50:08.960
Because it's very hard to undo once you do it.

50:09.560 --> 50:10.180
It's very difficult.

50:10.400 --> 50:11.360
Yeah, I can imagine.

50:11.360 --> 50:14.420
Well, there was a...

50:14.420 --> 50:15.460
I think it was...

50:15.460 --> 50:16.200
Was it in England?

50:16.880 --> 50:18.180
I don't know where it was.

50:18.760 --> 50:19.900
But maybe...

50:19.900 --> 50:22.300
I've had to be safe, though, because I don't think this was going to happen in England.

50:22.980 --> 50:27.740
But this person went to...

50:27.740 --> 50:33.460
He, like, was selling his house or something, and he got, like, the check from the mortgage company,

50:33.580 --> 50:35.260
and it was in his checking account or something.

50:35.260 --> 50:44.160
And he went to Burger King and bought a sandwich, and the person accidentally typed in...

50:44.160 --> 50:45.320
It was sort of, like...

50:45.320 --> 50:46.100
It was, like, two...

50:46.100 --> 50:47.220
It was...

50:47.220 --> 50:51.940
He, like, added, like, a couple extra zeros toward the end, and it ended up wiping out most of his checking account.

50:52.100 --> 50:53.760
And he didn't double-check the number.

50:54.820 --> 50:59.800
And the problem with it was, was, like, they were going to close the next day,

50:59.800 --> 51:01.500
and it take...

51:01.500 --> 51:04.840
It was a complete mistake, and they understood it, so they were trying to refund everything.

51:05.080 --> 51:07.500
But the bank wouldn't let them refund it for 24 hours.

51:07.780 --> 51:08.140
Ouch.

51:09.260 --> 51:10.300
For something else.

51:10.400 --> 51:12.260
I was, like, ooh, that's just...

51:12.260 --> 51:12.740
Yeah.

51:13.960 --> 51:19.440
Yeah, it does have its good things and advantages and disadvantages, that's for sure.

51:21.100 --> 51:23.280
Which is why I keep all of my money in my mattress.

51:27.860 --> 51:29.060
Let's see here.

51:29.800 --> 51:31.960
Let's go back to my notes real quick.

51:32.960 --> 51:34.460
Some other things on how to fight.

51:34.740 --> 51:38.800
Be aware, you know, be aware of what's going on in your company.

51:39.480 --> 51:42.300
You know, if you're going to have a product...

51:42.300 --> 51:45.840
For example, have you seen these Heelys these kids are wearing these days?

51:47.060 --> 51:48.280
Can you imagine if you would have...

51:48.280 --> 51:49.060
Oh, God, I can't see them.

51:49.080 --> 51:53.160
Can you imagine if you would have released that product six months before your competitor?

51:53.580 --> 51:57.120
I mean, it's just absolutely amazing how every kid I see now,

51:57.120 --> 52:00.980
between the ages of six and 16 are wearing shoes with wheels on them.

52:01.020 --> 52:01.460
It's amazing.

52:05.280 --> 52:06.660
It drives me nuts.

52:07.000 --> 52:09.260
And what really drives me bad is when I get going to...

52:09.260 --> 52:11.960
I guess I'm really starting to become old when I think about this.

52:13.580 --> 52:16.820
When I see, like, the no wheelies allowed in the store, I'm like,

52:16.880 --> 52:18.640
yeah, damn straight, young whippersnappers.

52:20.260 --> 52:21.860
Get those damn wheelies off my store.

52:21.940 --> 52:22.980
Get the fuck off my lawn.

52:22.980 --> 52:25.680
These are pretty expensive, too.

52:25.720 --> 52:26.080
They range...

52:26.080 --> 52:26.600
That's crazy.

52:26.700 --> 52:29.620
You see these kids just zipping right by you with, like, out their legs moving.

52:29.700 --> 52:30.800
It's like, oh, just...

52:30.800 --> 52:30.940
Yeah.

52:31.360 --> 52:31.960
Get away.

52:33.040 --> 52:39.220
Well, it looks like they range anywhere from $95 to $58 a pair, so...

52:39.220 --> 52:42.080
And, you know, they're probably selling 10,000 pairs a day for Pete's sake.

52:43.100 --> 52:43.700
Oh, totally.

52:44.940 --> 52:48.900
I'm curious if crap like this gets caught on any other place except the United States.

52:48.900 --> 52:50.660
I wonder if this is, like, a problem in France.

52:50.660 --> 52:52.600
Well, you know...

52:52.600 --> 52:53.980
They're just as American schmutz.

52:54.540 --> 52:57.420
It's just general marketing, because if they were really smart,

52:57.540 --> 52:59.420
they would just make them ridiculously expensive.

52:59.540 --> 53:02.160
Then all the cool kids would get them, and then all the other kids would want them.

53:02.520 --> 53:05.340
Then if you drop the price down, like, half, then everyone else would buy them.

53:06.300 --> 53:08.100
You know, you start at the boutique stores, and then...

53:08.100 --> 53:09.400
And then you have to name yourself Nike.

53:09.560 --> 53:10.000
Yeah, absolutely.

53:10.300 --> 53:10.500
Yep.

53:10.500 --> 53:13.000
You start at the boutique stores, and then you saturate Walmart.

53:15.640 --> 53:17.120
Isn't that what pretty much everyone does?

53:18.900 --> 53:19.620
I think so.

53:19.720 --> 53:20.320
It's a good marketing strategy.

53:20.660 --> 53:23.720
Yeah, that's how everyone does it.

53:25.720 --> 53:27.500
All right, so be aware.

53:27.580 --> 53:28.220
Be aware of what?

53:28.520 --> 53:30.220
Be aware of what your employees are doing.

53:31.400 --> 53:33.260
You know, watch their network usage.

53:34.640 --> 53:41.560
You know, let them know, hey, listen, you know, there's competition and competitive intelligence.

53:42.340 --> 53:44.220
Our information is our company.

53:44.220 --> 53:48.740
You know, make sure you, you know, keep your laptops locked up.

53:48.740 --> 53:50.360
Make sure you have hard drive encryption.

53:52.020 --> 53:54.580
You know, make sure you have good security policies in place.

53:54.580 --> 53:57.040
All those good security things that you should be doing.

53:57.040 --> 54:01.240
You know, your employees need to know about social engineering.

54:01.240 --> 54:09.120
You know, when people call up on the phone, that the information that they get, you know, people just, they have no idea what things are worth.

54:09.120 --> 54:12.500
It's like, for example, a corporate email list.

54:12.500 --> 54:15.020
Oh, it's worth a fortune these days.

54:15.560 --> 54:17.180
It's just, it's worth so much money.

54:17.240 --> 54:17.780
It's ridiculous.

54:18.040 --> 54:26.240
For, you know, people that sell health insurance, you can, I mean, if you have a corporate email list, it's pretty much a license to print money.

54:26.240 --> 54:30.900
Because you can sell it to spammers from one side of the world to the other.

54:31.900 --> 54:34.640
Even just a valid email address is worth money these days.

54:36.640 --> 54:38.340
So your, your employees should.

54:38.460 --> 54:40.440
Yeah, those, those, go ahead.

54:41.040 --> 54:41.420
Go ahead.

54:41.640 --> 54:46.420
Your employees should be aware that the information that they have is worth money.

54:46.420 --> 54:52.760
And that there are people out there that are looking to trip them up and, and gather that information.

54:56.020 --> 54:57.260
And it can happen to anybody.

54:57.700 --> 54:58.520
Look at Bell.

54:58.680 --> 55:07.100
So, I mean, we're, we're talking about, like, monitoring everything and, you know, basically keeping everything into draconian measures.

55:07.240 --> 55:15.380
I mean, how do we, how, how, where's the line drawn between, I'm sure all the hackers are going crazy now that we were talking about this before.

55:15.380 --> 55:21.840
But where, where's the line drawn between, you know, the, the rights of the individual over the rights of the company?

55:21.960 --> 55:28.920
I mean, I, I want to go and visit, you know, Yahoo, my, my Yahoo email account from work, which technically I don't do.

55:29.040 --> 55:29.320
But anyway.

55:29.900 --> 55:32.020
Well, you know, I, I mean, we're, we're, we're.

55:32.280 --> 55:43.740
I tend to side with the corporation in, in the aspect of if you're at work that a bandwidth is paid for by your company, the computer is paid for by your company.

55:43.740 --> 55:45.260
You don't have any privacy at work.

55:45.860 --> 55:47.660
Most corporations are pretty much like that.

55:47.720 --> 55:50.780
Even if they haven't told you they're monitoring your net usage by now anyways.

55:51.300 --> 55:52.740
And if they're not, they probably should be.

55:54.100 --> 55:57.620
You know, it's, you really have to these days because people are such freaks.

55:57.760 --> 56:03.460
If you don't monitor them, they're going to start setting up their own web servers and they'll sit there all day, you know, looking at porn or whatnot.

56:05.420 --> 56:08.580
But, but porn's a valid stress release device.

56:08.580 --> 56:09.320
It's just, but.

56:10.000 --> 56:11.000
The internet was spending it for, right?

56:11.000 --> 56:12.260
You're not my rights, man.

56:13.260 --> 56:16.240
It's, it's my, it's, it's my right to watch goat porn at work.

56:18.280 --> 56:20.120
Yeah, we get about three or four people a year.

56:20.200 --> 56:25.040
We just have to kind of, you know, let go because they just can't stay off the porn pages.

56:25.040 --> 56:28.600
So, how can you even do that at work?

56:29.200 --> 56:30.140
Yeah, you'd be surprised.

56:30.960 --> 56:31.940
You'd be very surprised.

56:34.740 --> 56:35.880
I don't know, John.

56:35.980 --> 56:38.920
This is the fifth, um, what's the color?

56:39.060 --> 56:40.000
Cyan cartridge.

56:40.140 --> 56:40.920
We've gone through the thing.

56:41.160 --> 56:43.820
Looks like someone's printing a long thing with a lot of pink on it.

56:43.820 --> 56:50.320
Jeez, Club, I don't know.

56:50.960 --> 56:52.040
Just pop another one in.

56:53.160 --> 56:53.520
Yeah.

56:55.560 --> 56:57.480
I mean, how do you, how do you do that?

56:57.520 --> 57:10.500
It's just, I mean, perhaps, I guess, if you don't, I mean, because, because the problem with me and what always drives me nuts, actually, is the fact that my cube that I have is open in the back and everyone can look at what I'm doing, which really pisses me off.

57:10.560 --> 57:11.180
We won't get into that.

57:11.180 --> 57:17.420
But, you know, surfing porn, if I accidentally click on something, like, where did I go once?

57:17.720 --> 57:25.620
Like, back in, like, the, like, 2000 or so, I went to, like, some website, and it was a domain squatter for porn.

57:25.740 --> 57:29.980
I was like, ah, crap, crap, because I knew that everyone could see behind me.

57:30.000 --> 57:30.840
Right, right.

57:30.840 --> 57:32.500
I'm like, I'm not going to that website.

57:32.960 --> 57:33.200
Yeah.

57:33.340 --> 57:35.620
I can even picture actually going to one.

57:35.620 --> 57:43.860
Yeah, take a cue from the guys on, what's the, that TV show that was on, G3.

57:44.620 --> 57:46.340
Take a cue from the guys at G3.

57:46.480 --> 57:55.880
Never, ever, ever, ever open up a web page when you're either, A, giving a presentation, or, B, being filmed in a room with a bunch of other people.

57:55.880 --> 58:06.600
Because, you know, you're always going to type in Google wrong, or, you know, fat finger, a URL, and nine times out of ten, it's going to pull up a porn site.

58:08.820 --> 58:09.680
It's happened to me.

58:09.740 --> 58:10.660
It's extremely embarrassing.

58:13.700 --> 58:14.100
Noob.

58:14.260 --> 58:14.760
No, anyway.

58:14.760 --> 58:16.240
It's just, that's the nature of the bean.

58:16.620 --> 58:20.000
Why go to websites when screenshots will suffice nicely?

58:22.360 --> 58:23.860
No, that's my philosophy.

58:24.040 --> 58:29.660
If I can get a screenshot in there rather than actually going to a web page, I am not even going to chance it.

58:30.460 --> 58:32.620
Because I know what the screenshot will be.

58:33.020 --> 58:34.660
Unless someone's hacksawed my presentation.

58:38.100 --> 58:38.900
So, let's see.

58:38.900 --> 58:41.240
I'm trying to think of a good way to wrap this whole thing up.

58:41.840 --> 58:42.740
Ooh, hire hackers.

58:42.740 --> 58:45.140
Security professionals.

58:45.260 --> 58:45.480
Yeah.

58:46.060 --> 59:04.800
I make a distinction between security professionals and hackers just because it always seems like when I go to things like Hope or DEF CON or SHMU CON, any of those, you know, get-togethers,

59:05.300 --> 59:06.600
there's two groups of people.

59:06.600 --> 59:11.860
There's security professionals who are hired for whatever reason to do security services.

59:11.860 --> 59:13.980
And the guys that do it because it's fun.

59:14.220 --> 59:17.540
And they live it and they eat it and they breathe it and it's all they do day and night.

59:17.680 --> 59:18.880
There's security, security, security.

59:19.060 --> 59:23.300
They love just breaking stuff and fixing it and finding out ways to make it secure.

59:23.300 --> 59:30.260
And those people usually don't have, like, master's degrees or Ph.D.s.

59:30.260 --> 59:41.620
And, you know, a lot of corporations, when they hire people to work in their organizations, I hate to say it, but they do put a precedent on education.

59:42.580 --> 59:45.660
And, you know, most corporations want you to have a degree before they'll hire you.

59:45.660 --> 59:49.200
Things are starting to change a little bit.

59:49.520 --> 59:57.700
If you notice, if you just go to DICE and type in security, you'll notice a lot of the jobs say that they want a bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.

59:58.540 --> 01:00:05.860
The majority of them say that because they know that, hey, if the guy's been out working his fingers to the bone and getting certs and stuff,

01:00:05.860 --> 01:00:11.540
maybe he doesn't have a degree and that's just fine with us because we just really want him to help us make our organization secure.

01:00:11.540 --> 01:00:15.660
So, yeah, hire hackers.

01:00:16.500 --> 01:00:19.940
Well, I mean, yeah, it's what it is.

01:00:20.420 --> 01:00:24.280
And, I mean, we're always talking about going out with, you know, degrees and everything.

01:00:24.500 --> 01:00:29.880
But for some people, I think you mentioned before the show started taping, you're yourself included, correct?

01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:30.200
Absolutely.

01:00:30.680 --> 01:00:30.840
Yep.

01:00:32.240 --> 01:00:34.460
Yeah, you know, some people don't have college degrees.

01:00:34.460 --> 01:00:39.560
And I know we always kind of harp on education here and education is good.

01:00:40.080 --> 01:00:41.240
And education is good.

01:00:41.540 --> 01:00:43.940
And certifications sometimes are bad.

01:00:44.200 --> 01:00:47.540
But it all depends on what the person is and who you are.

01:00:49.960 --> 01:00:56.760
Education, I think college was explained to me very aptly my senior year in college.

01:00:57.220 --> 01:00:59.780
Of course, they always tell you this after you've paid all the money.

01:00:59.780 --> 01:01:05.980
But college really isn't, like, the degree really doesn't do anything.

01:01:06.120 --> 01:01:07.600
It just opens doors for you.

01:01:07.600 --> 01:01:12.200
And when I look at it, that's the best explanation that I've ever heard about college.

01:01:12.840 --> 01:01:19.880
It's basically it shows that you can buckle down for four years and get a little piece of paper that says,

01:01:20.060 --> 01:01:22.340
I, you know, have a degree in computer science.

01:01:22.520 --> 01:01:22.660
Right.

01:01:22.660 --> 01:01:26.200
I mean, it's not as much knowledge that you have.

01:01:26.240 --> 01:01:27.420
It's just the fact that you did it.

01:01:27.620 --> 01:01:31.960
Well, just recently, they just have an InfoSec master's degree.

01:01:32.240 --> 01:01:34.120
I mean, the NSA will pay for your college.

01:01:34.720 --> 01:01:38.400
They are looking for people to give scholarships to right now.

01:01:38.400 --> 01:01:45.380
They need to get as many InfoSec people as possible because it's a huge and growing field.

01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:47.100
And not only that, but there's a lot of people retiring.

01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:50.420
A lot of people that have been in those positions for 20 years are retiring,

01:01:50.520 --> 01:01:52.960
and they need to fill them up with fresh people with fresh skills.

01:01:54.940 --> 01:01:56.720
Can I listen to other people's phone calls?

01:01:56.720 --> 01:01:57.020
Absolutely.

01:01:57.860 --> 01:02:06.780
If you, the big story is a few years ago, there was a story.

01:02:06.880 --> 01:02:11.780
It was just like a little blurb about how you could take a Nokia cell phone

01:02:11.780 --> 01:02:15.480
and flash it with a firmware to allow you to eavesdrop on it.

01:02:16.060 --> 01:02:17.560
Well, now this is coming up again.

01:02:17.840 --> 01:02:23.560
A couple weeks ago on Slashgear, there was a story about how the FBI has made that mandatory

01:02:23.560 --> 01:02:26.500
on every cell phone released in the United States.

01:02:26.500 --> 01:02:30.940
They can go into it remotely and turn the microphone on even when it's turned off.

01:02:33.600 --> 01:02:37.340
Well, was that mandatory or was that just sort of a thing that happened?

01:02:37.580 --> 01:02:42.720
I mean, I think the over-the-air programming has been around for a while.

01:02:43.660 --> 01:02:45.560
I mean, I believe what you were talking about before wasn't Nokia.

01:02:45.680 --> 01:02:50.680
It was the Oki, which I'm not exactly sure if that's related to Nokia at all.

01:02:51.260 --> 01:02:54.620
But that was something where you had to hook it up to your computer and reflash it.

01:02:54.620 --> 01:03:01.400
But now a cell phone has gotten more, you know, fancy-schmancy and it has all the bells

01:03:01.400 --> 01:03:02.020
and whistles on it.

01:03:02.260 --> 01:03:04.100
One of the things you could do was over-the-air programming.

01:03:04.100 --> 01:03:10.600
And, like, with my sidekick, and no, I don't think I've ever seen my MDA do it, but I've only

01:03:10.600 --> 01:03:15.840
had it for a while, was it would come out and say, oh, you know, we've released a software

01:03:15.840 --> 01:03:16.220
upgrade.

01:03:16.320 --> 01:03:17.960
Do you want to download it and install it on your phone?

01:03:18.720 --> 01:03:21.920
And I'm sure there's a way of actually doing that without the prompt on it.

01:03:21.960 --> 01:03:25.300
And I believe that's what the feds did for that certain case.

01:03:25.300 --> 01:03:25.740
Wow.

01:03:26.260 --> 01:03:28.140
And, yeah.

01:03:29.140 --> 01:03:32.200
So, I mean, I'm sure, I don't think the feds have made it mandatory.

01:03:32.480 --> 01:03:36.300
I think the only thing that really made it mandatory was the E911 stuff and the GPS.

01:03:36.820 --> 01:03:38.860
But that's another story for another time.

01:03:38.980 --> 01:03:39.420
Yeah, absolutely.

01:03:40.200 --> 01:03:41.880
It's just, you know, something to think about.

01:03:42.120 --> 01:03:45.220
You know, maybe you might, next time you buy a cell phone, you might want to import one

01:03:45.220 --> 01:03:47.600
and make sure it's unlocked.

01:03:50.960 --> 01:03:53.780
And get prepaid sends that are paid with us cash.

01:03:53.780 --> 01:03:54.540
Well, those are cheap.

01:03:54.600 --> 01:03:56.060
I was surprised at how cheap they are.

01:03:57.640 --> 01:03:59.260
Prepaid sends that to the waiting cell.

01:04:00.000 --> 01:04:03.180
I really can't wait until this market actually breaks over in the United States.

01:04:03.300 --> 01:04:06.100
I mean, you're really starting to see the beginnings of it on eBay and everything.

01:04:06.640 --> 01:04:11.840
But, like, you go over to Europe and there's basically just aisles and aisles of SIMs from

01:04:11.840 --> 01:04:12.680
various carriers.

01:04:12.860 --> 01:04:14.860
I'm like, wow, this is so cool.

01:04:15.720 --> 01:04:16.440
Yep, absolutely.

01:04:18.240 --> 01:04:20.100
And you just plug it in your phone and you have a new phone number.

01:04:20.160 --> 01:04:20.960
I'm like, yes.

01:04:20.960 --> 01:04:24.160
I want a phone number from Lichtenstein.

01:04:25.680 --> 01:04:26.840
Yeah, it is pretty nice.

01:04:28.960 --> 01:04:29.080
Yeah.

01:04:29.460 --> 01:04:34.020
Well, corporate espionage is becoming so popular that they even have their own society.

01:04:34.880 --> 01:04:38.340
And it's at www.scip.org.

01:04:38.400 --> 01:04:40.960
And it's the Society of Competitive Intelligence Professionals.

01:04:40.960 --> 01:04:50.560
So, are these the people who are defending against corporate spies or are the corporate spies themselves?

01:04:50.600 --> 01:04:56.740
Well, they label themselves as a global nonprofit membership organization for everyone involved

01:04:56.740 --> 01:05:00.580
in creating and managing business knowledge, whatever that means.

01:05:00.580 --> 01:05:05.340
Actually, I think they refer to them as kites.

01:05:06.120 --> 01:05:15.500
And what a kite is, is the flyer will set the kite out and then if there's any trouble or the kite gets caught

01:05:15.500 --> 01:05:18.780
or anything, he can just cut the string and let the kite go on about its way.

01:05:18.780 --> 01:05:20.900
And it can't be traced back.

01:05:22.620 --> 01:05:30.680
It's unlike what HP did where they had the quote-unquote private investigators, you know, do all the pretexting.

01:05:31.400 --> 01:05:32.700
But they did hire them.

01:05:32.940 --> 01:05:35.980
You know, if they would have been smart about it, they could have probably have gotten away with that.

01:05:36.840 --> 01:05:43.080
The problem is that they didn't realize that a few of those people were very tech savvy and they fought back hard.

01:05:43.080 --> 01:05:57.200
But, yeah, if you haven't heard of the HP, that's what it's referred to, debacle, go read up.

01:05:57.240 --> 01:05:57.840
It made news.

01:05:57.980 --> 01:05:59.000
How long ago was this?

01:05:59.100 --> 01:06:00.180
This was in 2006.

01:06:00.280 --> 01:06:01.440
It was about six months ago, right?

01:06:03.520 --> 01:06:04.860
Six, six, nine months ago.

01:06:05.340 --> 01:06:07.620
And it's just fun to see how everything played out.

01:06:07.620 --> 01:06:16.800
And if you want to buy something, want to actually buy something, go to Amazon and pick up, what's the book called?

01:06:16.880 --> 01:06:20.560
Hacking the Network 1, which was the first one that came out.

01:06:20.700 --> 01:06:22.400
So how to own the box.

01:06:22.640 --> 01:06:30.540
And I believe there are a couple – yeah, there's a couple of stories out there where it's – I mean, it's a perfect example of it.

01:06:30.620 --> 01:06:34.800
One of the stories – it's like – if you haven't read this book, read this book.

01:06:34.800 --> 01:06:36.280
It's a real fun book.

01:06:36.760 --> 01:06:43.960
It's – it's – essentially it's hacker fiction, and it's – but it's like – it's kind of – it's very well-versed and based on reality.

01:06:44.180 --> 01:06:46.820
And it's – it's a lot of what-if scenarios.

01:06:46.920 --> 01:06:56.040
And one of them is a guy hired by a company to break into another company and basically steal the source code for this –

01:06:56.040 --> 01:06:57.120
their brand-new application.

01:06:57.380 --> 01:06:57.880
That's an application.

01:06:58.700 --> 01:07:01.620
And, you know, yeah, exactly.

01:07:01.760 --> 01:07:02.380
That's what it was.

01:07:02.380 --> 01:07:07.520
And it's fun, and it details, like, you know, how it went about.

01:07:07.780 --> 01:07:16.600
And it's – I mean, it shows – it demonstrates a lot of tools you can use and how something like this could happen in real life.

01:07:16.760 --> 01:07:18.120
And it's just a fun read.

01:07:18.180 --> 01:07:21.380
I think I picked it up, God, probably like 2003.

01:07:22.180 --> 01:07:23.440
So, wow, it's three years now.

01:07:23.500 --> 01:07:24.440
Wow, that's kind of creepy.

01:07:26.040 --> 01:07:28.980
And I think I read it within, like, two or three days.

01:07:29.040 --> 01:07:30.300
It was just – I couldn't put it down.

01:07:30.300 --> 01:07:31.500
It was great stuff.

01:07:32.460 --> 01:07:37.000
Geek Mafia is also another kind of fiction-packing book that's pretty good.

01:07:39.480 --> 01:07:40.300
I love all of them.

01:07:40.960 --> 01:07:43.780
Oh, wasn't that – yeah, I remember hearing about that on Off the Hook.

01:07:43.840 --> 01:07:44.740
I never actually read it, though.

01:07:44.740 --> 01:07:45.060
Yeah, it was pretty good.

01:07:46.200 --> 01:07:46.780
It's cheap.

01:07:46.820 --> 01:07:49.160
You can get it off Amazon for a couple bucks, I think.

01:07:49.200 --> 01:07:50.260
You can get it for about five bucks.

01:07:51.060 --> 01:07:53.380
But it's definitely worth a good read if you're into that kind of stuff.

01:07:54.880 --> 01:07:55.380
Oh, wait.

01:07:55.500 --> 01:07:56.300
It's only a buck.

01:07:56.300 --> 01:08:00.400
Pick it up for $1.

01:08:01.800 --> 01:08:04.480
But, yeah, how to own the network.

01:08:07.280 --> 01:08:08.960
No, it's how to own the box, I believe.

01:08:09.040 --> 01:08:09.280
Hold on.

01:08:09.600 --> 01:08:12.480
I think I can – stealing the network, how to own the box.

01:08:12.540 --> 01:08:13.880
Yes, it's on my bookshelf right now.

01:08:14.600 --> 01:08:18.840
And stealing the network, how to own the continent is the second one,

01:08:18.880 --> 01:08:20.060
and I believe there's a third one.

01:08:20.400 --> 01:08:23.020
And the fourth one, I believe, is coming out real soon now, if I'm right correctly.

01:08:23.020 --> 01:08:28.920
Yeah, I don't know what the fourth one is, but I have that on good information.

01:08:29.120 --> 01:08:29.420
I'm forward to it.

01:08:33.100 --> 01:08:33.660
All right.

01:08:33.900 --> 01:08:35.960
Well, anything else?

01:08:36.260 --> 01:08:37.140
No, that's about it.

01:08:37.200 --> 01:08:38.120
Yeah, get into security.

01:08:38.560 --> 01:08:40.320
We need all the security help we can get.

01:08:40.660 --> 01:08:40.780
Good.

01:08:40.780 --> 01:08:44.120
It's a very, very growing field.

01:08:44.900 --> 01:08:47.000
As I was explaining to you before we started the show,

01:08:47.080 --> 01:08:52.800
there's a lot of people that are in security, as in IT also, that, you know,

01:08:52.860 --> 01:08:54.600
they're really not into their job.

01:08:54.680 --> 01:08:59.000
They just kind of went that way for – as a career decision.

01:08:59.000 --> 01:09:02.860
I don't know about you guys, but I am, like, a true geek at heart.

01:09:03.100 --> 01:09:05.180
I can't stop fiddling with stuff.

01:09:05.300 --> 01:09:08.320
I'm always building servers and tearing them down and doing installs

01:09:08.320 --> 01:09:12.260
and playing around with different things, and it seems like the majority –

01:09:12.260 --> 01:09:15.320
Please, you're talking to the guy who built up a malware analysis station.

01:09:15.400 --> 01:09:15.960
Come on now.

01:09:17.100 --> 01:09:18.100
Because I got bored.

01:09:19.060 --> 01:09:20.460
Oh, I have a spare computer.

01:09:20.520 --> 01:09:21.200
Let's go build this.

01:09:21.220 --> 01:09:23.540
The majority of the people that are in the field really aren't – you know,

01:09:23.600 --> 01:09:24.320
they're not like that.

01:09:24.320 --> 01:09:28.100
They graduated from college, and they put security on their resume and got a job.

01:09:29.000 --> 01:09:30.020
So –

01:09:30.020 --> 01:09:34.520
Well, that's what it came down to.

01:09:34.640 --> 01:09:37.960
I mean, when I was in college, there were two groups of people.

01:09:38.100 --> 01:09:41.340
There were the people there who enjoyed it, and then there was people here because,

01:09:41.860 --> 01:09:43.280
oh, I heard IT paid a lot.

01:09:43.600 --> 01:09:44.380
That's exactly right.

01:09:45.480 --> 01:09:45.820
Yep.

01:09:45.960 --> 01:09:49.920
And why would I ever use a command line when I can double-click on all these pretty icons on the desktop?

01:09:52.000 --> 01:09:56.360
Well, I've got to admit, there were a couple people who were there because, you know,

01:09:56.360 --> 01:09:58.640
they heard IT was a good career move,

01:09:59.000 --> 01:10:03.180
and they were relatively, you know, well-versed in everything,

01:10:03.280 --> 01:10:04.420
and they knew what they were talking about.

01:10:04.540 --> 01:10:07.340
So, I mean, but there were – of course, there were people that were just like,

01:10:07.420 --> 01:10:10.880
oh, you know, I want to get a good job and pay a lot of money and not do any work

01:10:10.880 --> 01:10:12.020
and play on the computer all day.

01:10:12.320 --> 01:10:12.760
Well, no.

01:10:12.760 --> 01:10:14.960
The problem with IT in general is outsourcing.

01:10:15.440 --> 01:10:20.700
The good thing about security is companies will never outsource security because they're too paranoid, you know,

01:10:20.760 --> 01:10:21.980
and as well they should be.

01:10:22.100 --> 01:10:28.800
Why should you send all your corporate security functions to India or Pakistan or South Africa or, you know,

01:10:28.840 --> 01:10:33.580
any place, Europe, to outsource them when you can't secure it?

01:10:33.580 --> 01:10:39.460
You know, you're – I think they figured that out when they started outsourcing all these call centers to India

01:10:39.460 --> 01:10:40.280
with these databases.

01:10:40.780 --> 01:10:46.480
They said, you know what, we don't have any control over this information once it goes to Bangalore.

01:10:47.260 --> 01:10:48.020
It's gone.

01:10:48.020 --> 01:10:58.040
Well, wasn't there a company who outsourced – it was like a medical transcription service who outsourced their stuff to India

01:10:58.040 --> 01:11:03.020
and they all of a sudden had a contract dispute with them after they sent all their data there

01:11:03.020 --> 01:11:08.280
and it was all these medical records and all these social security numbers and they're like, oh, fine, we're keeping this now.

01:11:08.960 --> 01:11:09.680
Pay some more money.

01:11:10.600 --> 01:11:14.060
And I think they had to fork it over because they were just – they were sweet.

01:11:14.180 --> 01:11:18.000
How much database information can you get on a 320-gig hard drive?

01:11:18.160 --> 01:11:18.320
You know.

01:11:20.280 --> 01:11:20.640
Exactly.

01:11:20.980 --> 01:11:21.840
A million to a million.

01:11:22.520 --> 01:11:26.880
How much database can you get on like a CD?

01:11:27.160 --> 01:11:29.020
It's just amazing how much stuff can fit on there.

01:11:29.320 --> 01:11:32.040
Yeah, SQL is definitely very portable.

01:11:34.340 --> 01:11:34.660
Mm-hmm.

01:11:35.700 --> 01:11:37.300
That's pretty much all I got, yeah.

01:11:37.580 --> 01:11:38.000
All right.

01:11:39.360 --> 01:11:41.200
Yeah, well, it was a cool enough episode.

01:11:41.200 --> 01:11:46.240
I think we kind of ventured from corporate estimates a couple of times, but there was some good stuff in there.

01:11:46.240 --> 01:11:48.400
I mean, InfoSec is just a fascinating career.

01:11:48.800 --> 01:11:51.880
Well, not career, but I can tell where my mind is.

01:11:52.380 --> 01:11:58.040
An interesting field in so many ways and just – it's such a varied.

01:11:58.160 --> 01:12:02.700
I mean, we've got like malware and that's InfoSec and then we can get corporate espionage and then we, you know,

01:12:02.740 --> 01:12:09.560
we can talk about forensics and it's just – there's so many subclassifications of it where we can just basically probably do it for another half a year

01:12:09.560 --> 01:12:13.340
and not cover all the little tidbits and nooks and crannies of it.

01:12:13.560 --> 01:12:13.780
Right, right.

01:12:14.300 --> 01:12:15.920
It was definitely an interesting episode.

01:12:16.900 --> 01:12:17.640
Well, let's see.

01:12:17.760 --> 01:12:23.560
We actually have an announcement this week that I think Booter still wanted me to announce that he's still doing the Jenny scan.

01:12:24.120 --> 01:12:29.740
And I think you can contact him on either IRC or the forum.

01:12:29.940 --> 01:12:31.280
So just send him a PM or something.

01:12:31.280 --> 01:12:35.420
And the forums are still messed up.

01:12:35.980 --> 01:12:37.880
So we're still working on that, I believe.

01:12:38.240 --> 01:12:40.720
I believe StankDog is currently – yeah.

01:12:41.200 --> 01:12:44.300
I kind of – I haven't noticed him down, have you?

01:12:44.420 --> 01:12:47.460
But apparently people have been still saying stuff about it.

01:12:47.740 --> 01:12:53.060
And StankDog, as we're recording this, is busily pouring over the server right now.

01:12:53.120 --> 01:12:55.020
It's sporadic, but nothing really noticeable.

01:12:55.020 --> 01:12:58.800
No, I haven't really noticed anything.

01:13:01.960 --> 01:13:02.360
Shouts.

01:13:02.460 --> 01:13:06.680
I'll now send shouts out again to Iridium and all of our service people.

01:13:07.580 --> 01:13:08.520
So thanks a lot, guys.

01:13:08.700 --> 01:13:09.100
Absolutely.

01:13:09.300 --> 01:13:09.980
Thanks very much.

01:13:10.120 --> 01:13:15.260
And I'll also send shouts out to – yeah, I'll send shouts out to StankDog and Fix the Tower

01:13:15.260 --> 01:13:18.980
and Booter for doing Jenny Scan and all the people who sent me presents.

01:13:19.300 --> 01:13:21.360
But they don't listen to this radio show, so it doesn't really matter.

01:13:23.380 --> 01:13:23.940
Yeah, I get presents.

01:13:23.940 --> 01:13:24.420
It's Christmas.

01:13:25.880 --> 01:13:26.680
Good stuff.

01:13:27.720 --> 01:13:29.660
Shouts out to my mom and my dad.

01:13:29.900 --> 01:13:31.120
Yeah, and my wife.

01:13:33.180 --> 01:13:35.420
Kicking out old school and Santa.

01:13:36.360 --> 01:13:37.060
And all of those.

01:13:39.520 --> 01:13:39.920
Yeah.

01:13:40.840 --> 01:13:42.220
I'm just going to ask you this randomly.

01:13:42.340 --> 01:13:45.400
Did you actually check out the Google Earth Santa tracking service?

01:13:45.420 --> 01:13:45.900
No, I did not.

01:13:45.980 --> 01:13:47.900
You know which one I checked out is the one from NORAD.

01:13:47.900 --> 01:13:51.040
I actually went to the NORAD website and watched them track Santa.

01:13:51.140 --> 01:13:51.800
It was really cool.

01:13:51.800 --> 01:14:00.400
Yeah, I got to say, compared to Google Earth, the NORAD one is totally lame, or at least the one that I saw from last year.

01:14:00.400 --> 01:14:01.460
I didn't check them out this year.

01:14:01.460 --> 01:14:09.020
But I loaded up Google Earth, and I was showing it to like two or three people, and they were all like my age, mid-20s.

01:14:09.020 --> 01:14:10.760
And they're like, oh my God, that is so cool.

01:14:10.820 --> 01:14:13.580
Because you have like this little icon of like Santa going across.

01:14:14.100 --> 01:14:16.340
And I think we checked him out around like 11 a.m.

01:14:16.340 --> 01:14:19.700
And he was somewhere in the South Pacific, and I was like, go Santa.

01:14:19.840 --> 01:14:20.280
Wow, that's amazing.

01:14:22.420 --> 01:14:22.680
Yeah.

01:14:24.900 --> 01:14:25.920
Do you have any shows?

01:14:26.040 --> 01:14:26.760
I'm all set, man.

01:14:27.480 --> 01:14:28.120
Thanks for having me.

01:14:28.180 --> 01:14:28.840
I appreciate it.

01:14:29.000 --> 01:14:29.700
Okay, so you should.

01:14:30.760 --> 01:14:31.580
All right, no problem.

01:14:32.040 --> 01:14:38.520
Our site of the week, and as Paladin brought up earlier, it's santabox.norman.no.

01:14:38.520 --> 01:14:38.880
Awesome.

01:14:38.880 --> 01:14:42.500
Which is, yeah, it's a fun site.

01:14:42.580 --> 01:14:43.120
You should check it out.

01:14:43.820 --> 01:14:46.140
Email, always, radioopenrev.com.

01:14:46.200 --> 01:14:46.780
Send us an email.

01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:52.740
Especially if you're in the service, because I'm quite interested in talking to you for no other reason than my own curiosity.

01:14:53.820 --> 01:14:56.380
Closing music is from Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

01:14:56.560 --> 01:15:00.600
It's called Walk on Water, and it's by House the Gate, available on ocremix.org.

01:15:01.220 --> 01:15:03.780
And, as always, we will see you next week.

01:15:03.780 --> 01:15:04.800
Stay ahead, Kyle.

01:15:08.880 --> 01:15:38.860
We'll see you next week.

01:15:38.880 --> 01:16:08.860
We'll see you next week.

01:16:08.880 --> 01:16:38.860
We'll see you next week.

01:16:38.880 --> 01:17:08.860
We'll see you next week.

01:17:08.880 --> 01:17:38.860
We'll see you next week.

01:17:38.880 --> 01:18:08.860
We'll see you next week.

01:18:08.880 --> 01:18:38.860
We'll see you next week.

01:18:38.880 --> 01:19:08.860
We'll see you next week.

01:19:08.880 --> 01:19:38.860
We'll see you next week.
