Thats because there is more than one program providing this sort of information. MAPP is for AV and other security software companies. There is also: CIPP http://www.microsoft.com/security/cipp/ and another one fo

Which you apparently didn't read thoroughly. I clearly state that the secure way to use TrueCrypt is to never mount the hidden volume in protected mode. That will enable the scenario you describe. I even state the reason why you want use it

Excellent. You read my directions on how to use TrueCrypt correctly! :)

No, it is not false. The important thing with a spinning disk is locality of reference. You want the blocks which store the file content to be as close together as possible, to minimize the head seek times. This means you want as long a cha

They can prove it sufficiently to force you to hand over your password. File systems have a particular behaviour, they allocate blocks in certain ways. Most notably, they use all of the space available to them equally (or, pseudorandomly an

It is not that difficult to prove that a hidden volume exists. The TrueCrypt implementation of hidden volumes means that the "hidden" partition is all allocated at the end of the visible partition. If you have a 20G TC volume with a 4G hidd

Or they aren't about to kill the same bug in MobileSafari, since it is worth exponentially more. https://twitter.com/i0n1c/status/309585202810867712

While there are definitely benefits to using a VPN, they do not provide anonymity. They provide privacy, and it is not the same thing. "No one is going to go to jail for you". If a VPN provider is legally required to log your activity or fa

Actually, @fygrave put together the document (using scigen and a draft from jonathan), so both of them should get credit.

You should clean the data from the user before passing it to the shell. There is a trivial remote command execution vulnerability in the URL ("echo 'GET /;$(cat /etc/passwd)'|nc ..."). I assume there are more.

You have to be more specific than that. These days information security is a huge field. Network security is a misnomer since almost no one works on "network security", which is about protocols not applications / operating systems. I'd sugg

The Londoner is at the corner of Sukhumvit 33. Easy to get to. The Bull's Head is down Suk 33/1, very easy to get to by BTS. The Phrom Phong station exit is just in front of the mouth of the soi. I don't know where the Langsuang Starbucks i

The Londoner is larger and doesn't get as packed as quickly (avoiding peak times, of course). Bull's head is a superior pub no doubt, but is not great for a largish meeting. At any rate, anywhere will do. When is this scheduled for? I'm fig

When are you around in Bangkok? It seems there is something of a community out here, but I'm not aware of any previous meetings.

I learned Thai by living with a Thai girl who spoke no English. Took about 6 months to become fluent. My suggestion is get a "long haired dictionary" and you'll pick up the language in no time. :) The best way to learn is to have no choice

Firstly, US companies tends not to care about other countries. To the extent that they do, it is mostly European countries that are important. The reason is pretty simple -- money. First world countries can (and will) pay for things. It is

Here is a good article on trying to live on 30k a month. It is a pretty frugal lifestyle actually. Lots of toast for breakfast, not a lot of ordering Au Bon Pain. http://www.ajarn.com/Banter/30kamonth.htm

Actually, I speak fluent Thai, there is no word for Yes or No. There is ไม่ which is a negation word, and ใช่ which basically means "correct"/"right", not "yes". The Thai question format is generally: Q: Hungry? หิวไหม A: Not hungry. ไม่หิว

Well, 4k USD per month is ~130k THB. The purchasing power of the Baht means that that is about equivalent to ~10k USD. (As an example, a can of Coke costs 12 THB in a 7/11). 130k will buy you a lot of luxury in Thailand. You can get a very

You know, you can have a car in other countries as well. In Jakarta you can have a car and driver for less than the cost of a car in the US. Personally, I think everyone should live in a different country for at least one (1) year. You'll g

Living in Thailand doesn't mean you have to work in Thailand. That is the crucial difference... I live here (Thailand) and do contract work at near western rates. That means I can live for months off the revenue from a single project. To be

Netcat is an old and venerable Unix hacker tool. If you want to be a better hacker the netcat README is required reading. I would also recommend reading the source code, in particular the comments. Hobbit can be quite funny at times. Netcat
