Odd Notes from just a couple of numerous lectures at symposium 2015-03-25, at http://www.unibw.de/code/, Notes written 2015-04-24.

• 2015-03-25: Generalmajor Thomas Franz, Commander NATO CIS Group, Deputy Chief Of Staff CIS & Cyber Defence: "Hybrid Warfare & Cyber Defence" - 11:15-11:45

  • Interesting talk:
  • Online purchases of exploits tend to be cheap & readily available.
  • Nato largely tends to protect just itself. JHS: Impication: rest should look after themselves
  • Average zero day time to fix: 230 days.
  • Most threats come from/to PD [source?] based.
  • JHS: I didnt stand up & mention it, but my first hand experience of zero day exploits are:
    • The FreeBSD jail hole I discovered (& reported to security-officer@, not to open list), took about 2 weeks to fix over Xmas period.
    • 2014-10-06: The USB spoofing exploit got fixed extremely rapidly in just a few days (by HPS@)
    • So I do Not believe in security by obscurity panaceas that commercial software vendors push.

• Workshop 1: "Dronenabwehr - mot Jamming & Spoofing" - Day 2, 11:00-13:00 - Prof Dr Harald Görl (30m), Prof Dr Berthold Lanki (5m) Prof Dr Andreas Knopp (60m)

  • DSI S900 Multicopter 3-4 Kg Ld
  • < 500g = Haftpflicht Versicherung, 0.5 - 5 Kg, 5Kg - 25 Kg, > 25 Kg criminal
  • 3 pole motor, no neutral.
  • Prof Görl did the Smart phone workshop last year that I also attended.
  • (As last year), we conclude tangible dangers exist.
