PowerLite S4 Multimedia Projector

This week I taught TCP/IP Weapons School, Layers 2-3 at Techno Security 2007 in Myrtle Beach, SC. I enjoyed teaching the class, especially since several students were repeat customers. Two were even alumni from classes I taught at Foundstone five years ago! Because the cost of renting a projector and screen from the hotel (and even from rentacomputer.com) seemed outrageous, I decided to buy my own. I purchased an Epson PowerLite S4 Multimedia Projector and Da-Lite 72263 Versatol Tripod Screen 70"x70" Matte White with Keystone Elim for use in the class. I was extremely pleased with both. In fact, right after I bought the Epson projector I saw it covered in a USA TODAY review, which helped validate my purchase.

If you're in the market for a projector and screen combination for less than $800 (or even $700 if you're not time-crunched, as I was) then I think you'll like these products.

Richard - this was a fantastic class! It is ashame that GE will have exclusive access to you now because every network/security admin should have L2-L3 taught in the detail you presented it to us last week. Thanks again!

Zeek in Action Videos

Image
This is a quick note to point blog readers to my Zeek in Action YouTube video series for the Zeek network security monitoring project .  Each video addresses a topic that I think might be of interest to people trying to understand their network using Zeek and adjacent tools and approaches, like Suricata, Wireshark, and so on.  I am especially pleased with Video 6 on monitoring wireless networks . It took me several weeks to research material for this video. I had to buy new hardware and experiment with a Linux distro that I had not used before -- Parrot .  Please like and subscribe, and let me know if there is a topic you think might make a good video.

MITRE ATT&CK Tactics Are Not Tactics

Just what are "tactics"? Introduction MITRE ATT&CK  is a great resource, but something about it has bothered me since I first heard about it several years ago. It's a minor point, but I wanted to document it in case it confuses anyone else. The MITRE ATT&CK Design and Philosophy document from March 2020 says the following: At a high-level, ATT&CK is a behavioral model that consists of the following core components: • Tactics, denoting short-term, tactical adversary goals during an attack; • Techniques, describing the means by which adversaries achieve tactical goals; • Sub-techniques, describing more specific means by which adversaries achieve tactical goals at a lower level than techniques; and • Documented adversary usage of techniques, their procedures, and other metadata. My concern is with MITRE's definition of "tactics" as "short-term, tactical adversary goals during an attack," which is oddly recursive. The key word in the tacti
