Some how I knew this could happen. Computers are great, but fuckable.

 Quoting: Desert Fox


Yanno I have a anti-hacker tech I want to develop so these sorts of events are history not daily events. So I looked around for investors. Mind you I do not have a prototype built as that costs way too much for average people these days.

Everything was going ok until the one question was asked "Why has nobody else done this yet?"

My answer was simple but investors can be so skeptical and so no funding.

Until someone gets a grip and realizes the solution to this is not going to come from Intel, Microsoft, Apple or Google - this sort of thing will keep happening.

Sad.

 Quoting: Desert Fox


Well I have tried reaching out since 2012... all want a prototype built at my expense before even considering it.

There are two primary areas - the hardware side involves low-level modifications to the BIOS code, and the software side is easy with a few good programmers.

The problem is it costs a minimum of 100k for the BIOS company to do the mods needed. During our discovery phase I had a conference call with a BIOS company and the engineer was ecstatic at what I wanted to do. Just wish it wasn't so hard to find the needle in the haystack to get this funded.

Speaking of funding - forget the crowdfunding sites - they steal intellectual property right and left.

And so it goes. I roll my eyes every time I see anything relating to hacking these days.

Re: HACKER MADE UNITED FLIGHT FLY SIDEWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chris Roberts, a security researcher with One World Labs, told the FBI agent during an interview in February that he had hacked the in-flight entertainment system, or IFE, on an airplane and overwrote code on the plane’s Thrust Management Computer while aboard the flight. He was able to issue a climb command and make the plane briefly change course, the document states.




Ok bsflag
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 63698888


such a pile of BS
if the IFE is at any point connected to the TMC it's on purpose (but I really doubt that's the case at all.)

its just like the snowden ops...they just don't give a flying fuck about making sense for the engineering community because they know what matters is the pull of the sheep numbers..
and they will believe everything they say to be truth....

 Quoting: Desert Fox


Yep - that's what I was thinking too but the BIOS mods only allow for so much. The software - which I never get to explain - uses specific algorithms that use the BIOS mods to full effect which would guarantee point-to-point authenticity.

Encryption is not the same thing. I describe the total package as being both a low level anti-virus and 'locational authenticity' method.

Think of it this way... remember when in Star Trek Next Gen how they finally realized they had to rotate the shield frequencies? Or the phaser frequencies when fighting the Borg? The algorithms 'rotate' constantly between source and target computers. Good luck figuring out which one is currently in use.

Yeah - so much and I have kinda given up hope. So even if someone has stolen the idea - they only have half of it. More power to em I suppose.

Re: HACKER MADE UNITED FLIGHT FLY SIDEWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only thing that makes this story unbelievable is if he overtook the thrust control on a engine. and used that engines power to alter the flight profile of that plane the pilots would of been all over that shit. within seconds trying to figure out what happened . and maybe even landed declaring a emergency.once they realized they may of been hacked mid flight they would of ordered all devices turned off or even confiscated. and mr neckbeard hacker would be doing federal time . so I claim bullshit on this story.you cant do that shit and not have the pilots notice it . and if they didnt then we have fucking moron pilots.

Only a matter of time before someone hacks the nuclear weapons systems!

ahhh
 Quoting: NODOOM


Yeah, have you heard of Stuxnet. Problem with this advanced piece of malware is that it just so happened to get leaked on the Internet. Stuxnet is malware designed specifically to target Iran nuclear reactors and cause there fans to slow down or turn off while the GUI says they are going, so in effect to cause a meltdown.

Now that stuxnet has been released, all someone technically would have to do is modify the source code and than they could target nuke reactors, power grids, etc.

All this Patriot Act, and security up the butt since 9/11 and a hacker can alter a planes flight controls, really??

the only good I can see from this is that they can make it so controls cannot be accessed or to patch it up so to speak.

surely you don't think this is the only hacker that can do this?

the big question now is how are they going to prevent this from happening in the future? hopefully nothing that will squeeze are civil liberties even further.
