  1. Thx .. I did find the owner e-mail in the whois records .. (thankfully he didn't hide it like so many opt to do) I didn't change anything on the host as I didn't want to touch it ;)
  2. Sooo .. I was googling a totally unrelated search term and found what I thought was a relevant link ... ... except the user replaced his wordpress installation with a default one - UNCONFIGURED. Which means when I went to the site, I got this: Sooo, I can now simply configure Wordpress, access the database and the server by using a couple of WordPress plugins to install any PHP I desire on the server. I am sending an e-mail to the website owner to inform him of his unconfigured setup.. but if I would have my black hat on (do caps count, or is it only fedoras?) I would simply take over this hosting account. What would you do when you see this in the wild? Configure it to secure it, then report it to the owner? Leave it as is?
  3. Do you use/know of a solution that enables encrypted (zero-knowledge) document collaboration? Preferably real-time, such as Google Docs. I'm working with a new client where I am the IT security sub-contractor. We had our first meeting today and started working on a plan to do job itself. The client requested that there would be a very high standard of security regarding many of the documents (mainly their threat response security protocols). This got us thinking about how we can collaborate on documents securely, preferably in a real-time manner. I took it on myself to find different solutions, and the best one I found is this: http://www.cipherapps.com/solution/ This solution enables you to seamlessly collaborate on Google Drive, encrypted, with a minimal footprint. No special browser or software needed (only the gateway, hosted or on-premise). Any thoughts? What do you use?
  4. Hey spazi! Awesome .. Good to know I'm not the only one that's lost in the Atlantic ;)
  5. I posted a tweet to @michaelossmann yesterday, asking him to do me a small favor, and little did I know that there was this little devil absolutely spamming everybody around him.. (Michael did me the favor .. thanks buddy! :) ) As soon as I post the tweet this guy called @greatest_rage starts asking for my help to reset the password to "his" router.. .. I found this a very strange request, but decide to play along.. here's the chat history: Nice, huh? The guy was very desperate .. and I'm pretty sure that I could have planted a meterpreter shell on his box that phones home every time he boots his box .. maybe that's his point? This looked very fishy .. the only two options in my brain are that this guy is either a desperate cop, fishing for stupid hackers, or a really stupid newbie. What's your take on this?
