Aviram Jenik has a very rare incident to report: "Calcalist reports [source, Hebrew: http://www.calcalist.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-3143244,00.html ]
that the wired network in a recent google developers conference in Israel was hacked during the conference. I havent seen that report anywhere else, but the reporter Dora Kishinevski is fairly level headed with little tendency for sensational stories so Im marking it as probably true. According to the article, google sent a follow up email to the participants and warned them the network was compromised. This is interesting first because the attack was on the wired and not wireless Internet, which is considerably harder to do without being caught, and second because it reminds us how insecure gmail is over compromised lines (as opposed to, for example, a corporate VPN)." --clip-- More at http://blogs.securiteam.com/?p=1157 The e-mail sent by Google is posted to comments: http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/1157#comment-559898 Juha-Matti _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
