Weaknesses in Wireless LAN Session Containment



One of our handlers, Joshua wrote a paper regarding the session containment feature in various WLAN IDS products. Basically, depending on the implementation, an attacker can evade this feature, and can use the traffic to passively identify the WLAN IDS, which is helpful to decide what attacks can be used without being detected by the IDS.



Over the weekend, you can enjoy reading his paper at:

Credit Card Breach



A few readers have submitted the news of a credit card breach that could potentially affect over 40 million card accounts.



Accordingly to the report, although the credit cards were compromised, the cards do not hold personal data such as social security numbers or birth dates and thus personal information are not at risk.
