  1. Re:No consequences means no responsibility. on Census Bureau Loses Hundreds of Laptops · · Score: 1

    Just want to add a little on what was said earlier...well maybe those who lose their laptop will have a pay cut for that particular month based on the laptop market value. Also for those that manage to save their laptop from being stolen they get some kind of reward at the end of the day.

  2. Some info on Fingerprinting Wireless Drivers · · Score: 1

    I am kind of new to this but based on some research on this topic which i got from the internet to share with you, it seems that video and keyboard drivers are generally not exploited because of the difficulty in attaining physical access to those systems, leading some to beleive device drivers are also immune to vulnerabilities. However physical access is not necessary with some classes of drivers, including wireless cards, Ethernet cards and modems. A hacker need only be in relatively close physical proximity of a wireless device to fingerprint the device's wireless driver.
