I have the unfortunate luck of sitting in Ultimate Hacking. There is an NDA you have to sign before class starts. No real point though, everything discussed has been covered elsewhere. One word description of today, lame. Course should be entitled: Learn how to hack honeypots and get your ass put in jail. Or, Ultimate Hacking in the year 1998.

oh, yeah, lunch sucked too.

I've got this from The Register ...

"BlackHat brings together CEOs and corporate secuity people and government and military people, to tell them why they need to spend money on security services and products." They then learn about intrusion techniques from hackers who are there essentially to frighten them.

And then, when it's over, "BlackHat attendees get a free pass to Defcon, a hacker culture freak show, so they can see the people they're supposed to be afraid of up close and personal," Gweeds said.
