- Slides for “A Dive in to Hyper-V Architecture & Vulnerabilities” with Joe Bialek and Nicolas Joly can be found here. (The link on the Black Hat site is still borked.)
- This isn’t an actual DEFCON 26 presentation, but it’s referenced in Vincent Tan’s “Hacking BLE Bicycle Locks for Fun and a Small Profit”, and I want to bookmark it for later: “Blue Picking: Hacking Bluetooth Smart Locks” by Slawomir Jasek.
- Slides for “Ring 0/-2 Rookits: Compromising Defenses” with Alexandre Borges are here.
- Also not a DEFCON presentation, but picked up by way of an Ars Technica story: “Fear the Reaper: Characterization and Fast Detection of Card Skimmers” by Nolen Scaife, Christian Peeters, and Patrick Traynor. In which the authors analyze a bunch of skimmers confiscated by NYPD…and then build a device that can detect skimmers, based on nothing more than the physical properties of how card readers work. Quote of the day: “Security solutions requiring significant behavioral changes are unlikely to be successful.”
- Content for “All your math are belong to us” with sghctoma is here: slides, white paper, and exploit code.

Which do you suppose is going to happen first: a Browns win, or someone hacks the fridges? My money is on the latter.
Cleveland hackers, you’ve got at least 25 days to prove me right.

And how about a little musical interlude? We haven’t had one in a while.
