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.

Here is a brief list of subjects I intend to touch on:

  • Networking and host/laptop/workstation configurations, and tools
  • Local Firewalls
  • Running Services
  • Apps to manage inbound and outbound traffic
  • Transmitting data: encrypted versus clear text
  • Differences between WPA and WEP
  • .. and some live examples!

Hope to see everyone there!
