hype-free

A blog which tries to demystify computer security, point out the half-truths and misinformation which floats around about this subject and hopefully reduce the hype created by semi-informed people. It also has some useful tips from time to time.

Hack the Gibson #73 & #74

Well, don't hack it. Actually the last two episodes of Security Now! were very insightful and as far as I know without major mistakes. The interview with Peter Gutmann is very interesting and if you have time you should read the original paper: A Cost Analysis of Windows Vista Content Protection. My opinion about it? I think that it's slightly overhyped and would like to see a technical rebuttal from MS, but probably there is some truth to it.
