So security101 went fairly well – people didn’t show up until later, and I had spent too much time screwing aroung with ettercap and MITM attacks to have enough battery to complete the entirety of the talk with all the examples I had hoped for.
Some of the attendees ended up asking lots of questions so the ‘flow’ I had envisioned sort of went out the window – but I’d much rather have people interested and actively asking me questions: It shows interest. I’d rather have interest then have them all silent while I blather on and on.
We all ended up at my place afterwards and I was giving short demos on MITM dns tomfoolery, rewriting all queries for microsoft.com to linux.com, and doing SSL MITM attacks against hotmail using ettercap. Pretty fun stuff!
I’ll be holding the class again for anybody that missed it the first time and wants to have it again, but I haven’t chosen a date yet.
If you’re interested in a date, please leave a comment! I’d like to hold the class when more people can attend.
