zacon wrap-up!

Hi Guys,

I see I haven’t update this blog in ages, I’d love to say I didn’t have enough time, but it was mostly just me being… well lazy.

Zacon IV was on the 27th of October ( http://www.zacon.org.za/about.html ) and was really great, had a super time and met some great people. My talk covered a bunch of the stuff I did on the blog and essentially these sections:

* Lockpicking (briefly) * Magstripes (reading + spoofing) * RTLSDR (listening to guards) * RFID (proxmark - bypassing LF EM4x door locks) * RFCat (spoofing remotes)

It went relatively well apart from a few small demo problems (such as not being able to spoof a magnetic stripe - turned the volume down by mistake when I tried to show it! *doh*). The video of the talk can be seen here:

ZaCon4 - Andrew MacPherson - 88MPH Digital tricks to bypass Physical security from ZaCon on Vimeo.

If you want the slide deck you can grab it from: /zacon-ivy/88MPH-full.pptx So anyway, there are a few topics that I started writing but got lazy to compliment the talk, but these are what I should cover in the next few articles (I hope):

* Magstripes Part 2: Spoofing * Bypassing LF tags

Additionally the badges this year:

And my custom badge for this year:

Additionally if you want to see the other Zacon talks (I recommend the MWR talks - definitely my favourite!) you can view them at http://vimeo.com/zacon

So with this post it will hopefully force me to write the others!
