802.11b Honeypots Open for Business

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the are-you-secure dept.

11thangel writes "SecurityFocus is running a story about a wireless honeypot project, being run by the SAIC. The setup consists of 5 Cisco access points in the Washington D.C. area, with two extra antennas (high gain omni's) plugged in. The network itself has a bunch of comps with various vulnerabilities, similar to a traditional honeypot. At the present, the network doesn't have a net connection, but the administrator is considering hooking it through a web proxy that would add a consent-to-monitor banner, so he can watch who's doing what. Time to find a WiFi card that can MAC-hop."

    ESR HAS KIDNAPPED TROLLAXOR!!!

    Members of the CLIT and CLOT, unite with the Federal Anonymous Gay and Gimpy Organization of Trolls (F.A.G.G.O.T.) and aid in the search for Trollaxor. We must act quickly. Who knows what ungodly tortures they may subject him to?

    yeah, and the night before. It was great. Mmmm mmmmm.. having that cock slide between my butt cheeks was su-per du-per good. Thanks Taco.

    BTW- Now I know why he calls himself Taco- his manhood smells like one after it's been on the counter for a day in a hot Alabama summer.
