Just got “optional”/mandatory flu shot at work. Never had one before, so we’ll see if it makes me sick.

That is one hell of a pumpkin (pun intended)!

Tsunami Mac OS X Trojan discovered

Interesting post from ESET Threat Blog about a IRC controlled backdoor that is targeting Mac OS X.  Apparently it is similar to the Linux backdoor ‘Linux/Tsunami’.

Useful Maltego video tutorials

I had made a weak attempt to use Maltego a few months ago, but like so many things I find, I didn’t have/take the time to dig into it and figure out how to use it or what it was for. Maltego is an “open source intelligence and forensics application.”*

I recently found a nice tutorial on Security Aegis and after watching just a few of the videos I was able to start getting an understanding of how you would use this tool in your initial research on a penetration test.

Chemex coffee is the best!

I have been using and loving my Chemex coffee maker for a couple of months now, and over the past month it has turned into my everyday coffee. Last week the cheap hot water kettle I purchased at Wal-Mart died, which forced me to use my drip coffee maker again! What a difference, and not in a good way.

The drip coffee was bitter, burnt and flavorless! I found time last night to pick up a new Oster hot water kettle last night and am again enjoying the smooth, flavorful cup of coffee I’ve been missing!

If you are looking for an inexpensive and uncomplicated way to get great coffee, the Chemex is the way to go!
