About this talk
Filip Savin - How I Got Into Hack?! - Cybersecurity in The Last Millenium This presentation was held at #BSidesBUD2023 IT security conference on 25th May 2023. Remembering how it all started with older ones, funny things and lessons from the past for the younger generation. Starting with save game byte patching to increase lives/money. Getting online by dealing BBSes, identifying connection speed by modem noise and encountering DOS viruses. Getting on the internet, frustrated by dial-up costs, trying phreaking tricks, studying how the phone system works and realizing all that is obsolete. Network "wars" with WinNuke, Smurf, etc. Trying to understand how they work, getting on EFnet IRC. Shellz! Reading Phrack, Bugtraq. C, assembly, exploit development, x86/MISP/SPARC/HPPA/PPC. Understanding the value of exploitable bugs. Hacking scene, from "Free Kevin!" to the anti-security movement. PHC takeover of #phrack, Proj3kt M4yh3m, fake (better?) Phrack zines. ~el8 and Defcon10. Remote exploits (incl. fake/backdoored binaries and broken sources), high- and low-profile hacking. Operation "Get rich or die tryin". Diving into kernel rootkit development. Going back to reality. Those who didn't get busted moved on. Free Kevin now runs a security company. https://bsidesbud.com All rights reserved. #BSidesBUD2023 #hacking #cybersecurity
