Exploitation and Demonstrations
Maybe it's time to take a look at the sometimes-humorous, often-dangerous downsides. mckt (pronounced "mckt") is a three time consecutive winner of the Bill Bilano 'Heeey Dude!' award, and a volunteer with the Mitnick's Children Foundation.
Remediation and Defensive Strategies
He often finds himself in harrowing situations involving the stormtroopers of an popular software vendor, but always manages to escape using a rusty backslash and a pack of chewing gum. His mother is disappointed in him, but hopes he'll one day live up to his true potential. For copies of the slides and additional materials please see the DEF CON 18 Archive here:
