I remember when I first read that Bill Gates would take time off as "thinking time". I thought to myself, "Wow, like how unproductive, I could be hacking routers, testing wireless attacks, or breaking into something during that time".

Little did I know just how productive this time can be (say what you will now, but I think Microsoft has done pretty well over the years). So, somewhat in honor of Bill Gates (okay well not really) we will be taking a little time off. Our next podcast will be recorded on Thursday July 10th, 7:00PM EST. In the mean time, I will be doing some thinking, trying to unplug, enjoy this July 4th weekend and come back in better mental shape. I suggest that you do the same.

Maybe take a trip on the boat, spend some time with family, and get some rest. You'll need it for what we have in store :)

Happy 4th!

Cheers,
PaulDotCom

INSECURE Magazine Issue 17 has been released for July 2008 and contains an article written by yours truly. I want to first give credit where credit is due to Charlie Vedda from the Packet Protector project, who was instrumental in putting some firmware together in order to make this project a reality. This is a project I have been tinkering with for quite some time and am excited to finally have it in print. Also, special thanks to Larry who helped me with some early versions of the project as well.

So, how do you build a "secure" wireless network on the cheap? (Note "secure" is in quotes, and I do the double finger quote thing when I say it too). Well, you'll just have to read the article I guess, but here's an excerpt:

"Many organizations are faced with the challenge of providing a “guest” wireless network. This network is intended to provide your guests, such as contractors, visiting faculty, patients, or training rooms, consultants, with wireless access to the network. In most cases guests will require access to the Internet, with little or no need to connect to your organizations private network. There are many ways to solve this problem, with the best being to purchase a separate Internet service and completely separate it from the rest of your network."

The article then goes on to tell how to build the network and various other security tips. This is based on many experiences I've had both attacking wireless networks and having to defend them, so I hope you can put it to good use!

Enjoy!

All:

Thank you all for your positive feedback and corrections for our new web site. There is still some clean-up that needs to happen, but for the most part its well under control and moving forward. I made some updates recently that reflect some of the new/updated content that we were planning on:

• About - Now contains pictures, bios, and information about PaulDotCom and how we got started, including mission statement.


• Papers - Contains a complete listing of articles and papers published over the years, including the latest edition of INSECURE Magazine, including abstracts.


• Presentations - Up-to-date listing of all presentations, including the Late-Breaking Computer Attack Vectors webcast, with June 2008 being the latest


• Forum - In other news, Larry has updated our Forum to prevent SPAM using a shiny new CAPTCHA. Say what you will about CAPTCHA, if it prevents bots from posting pr0n and male enhancement links in our Forums, I'm all for it!

Larry is in the process of sending me a list of all his papers and presentations, so look for those updates coming soon! Oh, and seems security is being embedded into everything these days:

Cheers,
PaulDotCom

So, due to circumstances beyond our control we had to cut over to the new web site before it was completed. So, please bear with us while we work to get the site back up and running. Until then, get adjusted to the new look and feel and please report broken links, errors, and problems to psw /at/ pauldotcom.com.

Thank You,
