Buz’s and my previous web hosting recently expired and thus on Sunday I moved all our stuff over to our new server hosted with WebFaction which I’ve thus far been incredibly happy with. While I was previously used to working with cpanel, their more advanced interface produces a much cleaner directory layout which I greatly [...]

Edit 2010/08/27: I thought I should update this page stating that the AWS S3 Console was updated about a month ago with a feature to convert entire folders to/from Reduced Redundancy. Additionally the boto source has moved to GIT, thus a few changes are needed to run my script of the latest tree, however with [...]

I previously wrote about my preparation for leaving Facebook. This morning I have finally completed the last few things I wanted to do. Those last few things were to store the photo captions, photo comments, and photo tags for each photo downloaded. Yesterday, in order to extract this information from Facebook, I spent some time [...]

Edit: A bunch more DEFCON 18 write ups can be found at the vnSecurity site. This weekend I competed in the Defcon 18 Qualifiers with team Shellphish. We unfortunately only placed 15th, nonetheless, it was an exciting and challenging weekend. Below is my write up for the Forensics 200 challenge. I don’t recall the phrasing [...]

Update 2010/05/27: I’ve made further updates to photograbber. Read about them in my post titled, “Facebook Photograbber Updates“. The patch file linked to from this page has been updated to include those changes. I started using Facebook in October of 2004, during my freshmen year of college, just a few months after it became available [...]

Last week I wrote about the awesome message my brother left me regarding what he wanted for his birthday. Naturally I felt compelled to splurge a little for his birthday so my other younger brother and I purchased him an orange iPod nano. He happened to be with my mom when she checked the mail [...]

I was working away one day and I missed a phone call. Just mom’s cell, so not usually worth investigating but this call was different. I am notified via email when I have a voice mail as I use Google Voice for voice mail and when I finally played back the message, as you can [...]

This is a ridiculously silly post however I predict it will work out in my favor and if not at least it only required a minuscule amount of my time. Besides I needed something to post on my blog anyway. I was just texting with a friend who happens to be learning C++ in which [...]

Warning: This post contains pictures most people would never want to see of me, and a few vulgarities. If you asked me just six months ago if I liked to run, I would have said “Hell no!” I have hated running for as long as I can remember, aside from the bit of running required [...]

As a member of the Security Lab at UCSB I had the privilege to help create and run this year’s iCTF Hacking Competition. The six-year-old competition was very unique this year. Unlike CTFs seen before in which teams try to protect their services whilst attacking other teams’ services, our competition had teams deliver drive-by downloads [...]
