HAL2001 reminder; schedule; invitation
by Greg Newby 04 Jul '01

04 Jul '01

About a month ago I sent the HAL 2001 call for participation to cypherpunks. This is a reminder to people who might be thinking of submitting a presentation. We're still looking for more in-depth sessions on crypto topics. The current list of speakers & subevents is online at http://www.hal2001.org/hal/03Topics/06program/index.html The call for participation, and how to submit (as well as how to register to attend) is also there. There had been a cypherpunks gathering subevent that seems to have dropped off the list. I'll try to revive it, but if anyone knows who was thinking of organizing this, please drop me a note. Brief facts: August 12-14 on the campus of the U. of Twente, in the south-east of The Netherlands. -- Greg

Factors for matching paper
by Jim Choate 04 Jul '01

04 Jul '01

from a shredder, that is... - handling marks (e.g. marks where a paper feeder impresses or moisture stains from handling) - paper fiber pattern extension across cuts - paper color shading across cuts - cut marks made by the cutting tools themselves - syntactic analysis (of the results, weak) -- ____________________________________________________________________ Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent.

DeLong press(a)blackhat.com +1.617.877.3271 BLACK HAT BRIEFINGS 2001 SESSIONS HIGHLIGHT NEW COMPUTER SECURITY TOOLS, TECHNOLOGIES AND TACTICS Top Industry Gurus will Talk About Key Problem and Offer Solutions to Todays Security Issues http://www.blackhat.com/ -- Black Hat Inc. announced today over 40 different speaker sessions for this summer's Black Hat Briefings and Training 2001, the annual conference and workshop designed to help computer professionals better understand the security risks to their computer and information infrastructures by potential threats. This year's show will focus on hot topics including Honey Pot servers, secure programming techniques, incident response, Web-based vulnerabilities and Distributed Denial of Service attacks at the Caesars Palace Hotel and Casino in the heart of Las Vegas, 11 through 12 July, 2001. Top-notch speakers will deliver to the conference's core audience of IT & network security experts, consultants and administrators the newest developments on the vital security issues facing organizations using large networks with a mix of operating systems. "Our goal is to present a vendor-neutral environment where conference attendees can receive key intelligence in a face-to-face environment with the people developing the tools used by and against hackers," says Jeff Moss, founder of Black Hat Inc. "Our speakers discuss the strategies involved in correcting existing problems and inform attendees on upcoming issues, preparing them for the future." The lineup of Black Hat Briefings presenters for 2001 include: -- James Bamford, author of NSA books "The Puzzle Palace" & "Body of Secrets", will discuss some of his key research tactics that lead to his exposes about the most secret government agency in the United States. -- Richard Clarke is the senior U.S. government official responsible for cyber security policy. He was appointed by the President as the first national coordinator for security, infrastructure protection and counter-terrorism. He chairs the U.S. government's committees on cyber security, continuity of operations, counter-terrorism, domestic preparedness and international crime. -- Steve Christey, Lead INFOSEC Engineer in the Security and Information Operations Division at The MITRE Corporation will discuss the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) concept (naming standard for computer security vulnerabilities that hackers exploit to break into systems) and the challenges that MITRE faced trying to meet the criteria created for the concept. -- Martin Roesch, founder of Sourcefire Inc and author of the open source "Snort" Network Intrusion Detection System will talk about the new features in version 1.8 of the system (including features to improve it's enterprise scalability, resistance to anti-NIDS attacks, and integration with other security products and protocols) as well as the architecture and evolution of the next-generation Snort 2.0 system, is currently in the planning stages. -- Lance Spitzner, founder of the Honey Net Project and the group's 25 members will present the resulting research from their endeavors and discuss the goals of the project, how they accomplished their research and what they have discovered. -- Jose Nazario, a Biochemistry Ph.D. student from Cleveland, Ohio will discuss the future of Internet worm viruses and how the current crop (Ramen, Melissa, ILoveYou) are just the tip of the iceberg. Nazario applies the morphing approaches of biological systems with computing, and shows how new threats and adaptive defense strategies emerge. -- Dr. Ian Goldberg from Zero Knowledge Systems (known for cracking the first RSA Secret Key Challenge in three and a half hours, breaking Netscape's implementation of SSL encryption, and breaking the cryptography in the GSM cellular phone standard) will be discussing the "highly flawed" Wired Equivalent Privacy in the 802.11 wireless network standard. -- Brian Martin, founder and staff member of Attrition.org will cover the lessons learned and insight gained from monitoring the world of Web site defacements including reactions from the defacers themselves, system administrators, law enforcement and journalists as well as identification and analysis of several trends and statistics. Cryptography expert Bruce Schneier and Technology Futurist Richard Thieme will be giving this year's lunchtime presentations. Black Hat Inc. will also conduct computer security training for several different topics the two days prior to the briefings - 9 through 10 July. Subjects include: -- NT Network Intrusion Workshop -- Complete Windows 2000 Security -- Advanced Scanning with ICMP -- Reverse Engineering and Security Auditing with IDA The instructors for the training segment of this year's Black Hat are some of the top experts in their field and are fully active in the computer security community.

For > Text is printed on paper. Obviously. But to use the texture classification method for 'deshredding', the paper must consist of multiple distinct textures or else you will not get any information out of the method besides the type of paper used. For deshredding, the likelyhood of two pieces of paper being previously attached is needed. So for this to be usable on paper, paper needs to have significantly varying texture. For rice-paper, parchment and watermarks I can see this work, but for normal paper?? Does anyone have experience in this or a cite? With kind regards, Wouter Slegers
