I updated my SILICA this morning while making pancakes for the kids,
as you do, and of course, all around me looked about with new eyes.
I have a new mesh network that a friend installed in my house and
it's interesting to see what it looks like to a wireless hacker. If
you haven't seen the new SILICA video it is here:

There's this sense that hackers get which is divorced from what is
in Wired or Business Insider or BlackHat which is "Works in the
Wild". It's a palpable thing, that sets priorities like a hot oil
such that you can tell who has "Gone Active", as they say, from
their recoiling from various technologies. One technology that is
currently on the hot plate is Active Directory. You can see from
talks even at DefCon that people are looking at WMI as a persistence
mechanism in the wild. And the Microsoft talk from INFILTRATE 2014
went over a whole methodology for attacking Active Directory
networks that dragged public discussion of the techniques into the
modern age. For decades AD has been a disaster from a security
perspective - by design - and now all that technical debt is coming
due like a storm of cicadas chirping their last song.<br>
