What's New



It seems that there are new worms floating around the net. Rbot and zotob.d it seems they are bots. Virus writers are having wars with each other right now. These exploit plug and pray vulnerability. Here is a technical description http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/#00000553
The new issue of Insecure magazine is out. This magazine is awesome: http://www.insecuremag.com/.

I received the new catalog from http://www.tektronix.com tools from measurements good for signal analysis.
