Bought 5 of the cheapest "smart" devices I could find and ran each through the same firewall lab. One of them downloads a script from a server overseas and runs it as root every time you boot it. New talk dropping soon: "When You Tell the Device No."
Gave my first big-stage talk at BSides Las Vegas (PasswordsCon) on something I keep running into: attackers throwing passwords at login systems that were never designed to work. They're not trying to log in. Thread.
Mostly an awareness talk, since the fixes aren't exotic, they're just rarely all in place at once. Also it was my first time in Vegas and I 100% talked too fast.
Watch, read, and the code are in the reply.
@betway@F1 Been trying to withdraw R2,500 from @BetwayZA for 4 months. Their verification system breaks on their side. When I escalated today they accused me of having multiple accounts with zero proof and locked me out completely. Formal complaint soon.
