BackTrack 5 ( BT5 ) Coming Soon ! We're behind schedule with BackTrack 5 , but are working hard to make up for lost time. We thought we'd post a few pictures for your enjoyment of the development BT5 ISO we're working on. The screenshots were taken on a 2.6.38-rc5 kernel. The screenshot above is of the KDE 4 theme currently in development. The screenshot above is of the current OSSIM compatible menu structure (WIP). The screenshot above is of working IEEE r8187 drivers on our new kernel. Take into account that many things may and will change in terms of appearance – these are initial mockups are are creating for various environments. Final release in a couple of months at least.

This project was originally unveiled at the recently concluded  ShmooCon . It shows a lot of promise and the authors two years of study and experimentation. The name is  Ubertooth. Ubertooth is an open source 2.4 GHz wireless development platform suitable for passive bluetooth monitoring. It aims to be the world's first open source and affordable bluetooth monitoring and development platform. In reality, the commercial equivalents of such tools are available for 10000$ and above! Since it's inception from almost two years ago, there are two version (both open source) of the Ubertooth platform (if we may call it!). They are as follows: Ubertooth Zero : It was a low power (comparable to a Class 3 bluetooth device) USB dongle, and the first working prototype hardware platform of Project Ubertooth. It has since been superseded by Ubertooth One. Ubertooth One : It is a smaller, higher power (comparable to a Class 1 bluetooth device) USB don...

AI agents promise to automate everything from financial reconciliations to incident response. Yet every time an AI agent spins up a workflow, it has to authenticate somewhere; often with a high-privilege API key, OAuth token, or service account that defenders can't easily see. These "invisible" non-human identities (NHIs) now outnumber human accounts in most cloud environments, and they have become one of the ripest targets for attackers. Astrix's Field CTO Jonathan Sander put it bluntly in a recent Hacker News webinar : "One dangerous habit we've had for a long time is trusting application logic to act as the guardrails. That doesn't work when your AI agent is powered by LLMs that don't stop and think when they're about to do something wrong. They just do it." Why AI Agents Redefine Identity Risk Autonomy changes everything: An AI agent can chain multiple API calls and modify data without a human in the loop. If the underlying credential is exposed or overprivileged, each addit...
