Movie Tech Review: Child’s Play 2019

A while back, Rik & Kasia Ferguson shared their thoughts on the movie, “Unfriended: The Dark Web.” The dark web and technology in general plays a pivotal role in the movie's plot, so the team decided it would be interesting to have a real-world expert review. Everyone had a lot of fun, and thus...

The HITRUST Common Security Framework: Not Just for Healthcare Anymore

The HITRUST 2019 conference took place last month in Dallas, Texas, and covered important topics such as risk management, compliance, third-party assurance, cybersecurity, medical devices, and the Internet of Things IoT. As speakers and sponsors, we saw much enthusiasm about HITRUST Common Securi...

Consumers Urged to Junk Insecure IoT Devices

More than 2 million connected security cameras, baby monitors and other IoT devices have serious vulnerabilities that have been publicly disclosed for more than two months – yet they are still without a patch or even any vendor response. Security researcher Paul Marrapese, who disclosed the flaws...

Linux Kernel Bug Knocks PCs, IoT Gadgets and More Offline

Multiple TCP-based remote denial-of-service vulnerabilities have been uncovered in the FreeBSD and Linux kernels by Netflix researchers. Exploitation would interrupt TCP connections and therefore streaming content flows to vulnerable Linux-based PCs putting a crimp in binge-watching, for instance...

Ewon Flexy IoT Router. A Deep dive

First off I would like to thank the techs at PTP for their insights and help during this process. I know what I know, and I don't know what I don’t know, so I asked for help sometimes. I've learned a lot from this project e.g. how XOR works, and how to use IDA to analyse ARM binaries better, so I...

Sharing the Secrets: Pwning an industrial IoT router

I get involved in a lot of IoT and ICS pen tests and found an interesting device on one of them. I didn’t have enough time on the job to go as deep as I wanted, so got PTP to buy a couple to play with. eBay FTW! It’s an Ewon Flexy IoT Router. It’s important to note that local access / public IP...
