Beware the Airport Wireless
schwit1 writes to tell us that a recent study by a Silicon Valley-based security company shows that black-hats have been ramping up their use of tempting free or unsecured wireless access points in high travel areas like airports and hotels. "According to their study, even the 'secure' networks weren't all too safe. Eighty percent of the private Wi-Fi networks at airports surveyed by Airtight were secured by the aging Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) protocol, which was cracked back in 2001. Almost as many — 77 percent — of the networks they surveyed were actually private, peer-to-peer networks, meaning they weren't official hotspots. Instead, they were running off someone else's computer."
I cracked my own network in minutes using this method. Can someone point me to a less complicated method?
Ever see a black hat naked before Jimmy?
The Great Blue God is always angry. Watchout for chairs.
New Hampster touches Canadia, just in a not very interesting spot.
Vermont, on the other hand, touches Canadia upclose to Montreal. Much more fun than just trees.
Maine, of course, touches a lot more of Canadia, but it's all lower rent and not so much fun. Beautiful in its own way, but not Montreal.
And thankfully, Maine doesn't touch Vermont at all. Wierd shit in Vermont.
deleting the extra space after periods so i can stay relevant, yeah.
Always use a rubber duck.
