You're welcome.

Recovery is about getting back those files that have been deleted or otherwise lost.

Computer forensics really is about finding evidence items in a consistent and repeatable...

OK, so it sounds like you're legal.

What an aggregation unit does is take several different connections into one. You'd actually need a box with multiple WLAN NICs that would then pipe it all...

First, what you want to happen, won't work. Bandwidth aggregation won't work across multiple APs unless there is a common aggregation controller behind them.

Secondly, and more importantly, if...

I've only played with Autopsy and found it very lacking, so I stick with costly commercial Windows tools for forensic work. Having said that, I can't be positive, but Autopsy probably doesn't have...

Wait. William Gibson is THAT Gibson?

BTW, have you been to the pool on the roof? :D

I like William Gibson's idea: A 3D grid of scaffolding holding several hundred Sinclair ZX-81's. :D

Don't use "&" and "!". Use "and" and "not". Look at the examples that are on the page Archangel-Amael posted. Again: http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureFilters

To be sure, there are a lot of networks that have touchy machines, and those details should be worked out ahead of time. In fact, my contracts specifically exclude deliberate DoSing as a technique,...

Look at the help files for timing. Reducing the threads may improve the performance of hydra.

Medusa is a comparable tool.

By the way, it is a stupid move to use a tool over the Internet, if...

Noise is only an problem if you're running a "black ops" test against both the actual network as well as the security abilities of the admins. Otherwise, concern over noise isn't even a...

No, these sites are not for creating password lists. They are for quickly looking up the default password for a given device.

The NS Forums are being revised; aFR just sent me an email informing me of the fact. Apparently, he's switching the forums software to PHP-BB. I have no idea what prompted the sudden change or when...

Yeah, around 2003-2005, gpsd would completely munge the NMEA output and just would not play nice with kismet. IIRC, the development had forked for some reason circa 2003, and what ended up out in...

Aside from driver issues, in a lot of cases it's also hardware related, in that the card lacks either computation power and/or the memory registers, etc., to perform the needed operations. You have...

As far as I know, there aren't any devices or software tools that allow you to do this, in the manner you describe, although there may be specific proprietary applications that allow SMS when a phone...

Yes, IF you capture the 802.11 Frames, which is what encases packets when they're being broadcast over the radio frequency (RF) portion of the network. Since most 802.11 clients strip the frames off...

Actually, that article is inaccurate. It comes close, but it still is spreading some confusion about the subject. "SSID Broadcast" is a misnomer. It is really a "Disable the response to SSID...

Use quotes.

/me smacks forehead.

No, you might know about a single tool, but you fail to understand how wireless works. If you want to understand, I would again suggest you do some basic reading on the...

No, of course not. People who know the "hidden" SSID can connect to it, merely by typing it into their wireless client. As I previously stated, "hiding" the SSID merely tells AP to be unresponsive...

You're missing something.

Hiding the SSID makes no sense, as "hiding" only makes the AP in question unresponsive to SSID query beacons. However, the SSID is still broadcast every 0.1 seconds,...

You've hit it right on the head. Due to the fact that almost every crime has some electronic/computer element nowadays, for a PD it's a matter of either adapting or potentially lose huge amounts of...

/me crosses kidn3ys off the Xmas card list.

There's no question about the fact that the police and the law always lag behind technology, but they are getting better. I've been pleasantly...

True on all counts. I do have an "in" with most of the LEOs in the area, and a lot of threads like this do come in here. However, more and more PDs are getting "cyber units" by shear necessity. ...

The Prosecution rests!
