Webinar Recording and Laszlo's TNS hijack and downgrades Presentation



I did a very successful pair of webinars for Sentrigo earlier this month on the 9th and 11th of March on the subject of an "Oracle Security Master Class". The USA webinar was recorded by Sentrigo and is available from this link if you would like to hear me speak on the subject of Oracle security.

Also Laszlo emailed me to say he has translated his Hactivity presentation on TNS attacks such as protocol downgrades on the Java thin client and also TNS session hijacks. This is great material. The presentation itself is here and is a 67 page pdf file. Laszlo also has released his pytnsproxy code here and also the module for Squirtle. There are also three demo videos, how to hijack an Oracle session, how to downgrade an 11g authentication when a Java thin client is used and finally a demo on how to use the squirtle module. Nice work from Laszlo as usual.
