We are happy to announce that Alex Smith is coming to HackCon. Alex spent several years working as a software developer before switching to information security, he is now a senior consultant doing pen-testing for a security company in Melbourne, Australia. He has spoken at several conferences, and are founder of Cyberise Me, a company specializing in cutting edge DIY cybernetic implants for the human body, where he designs, builds and implants new devices.
Until now, we have been dealing with firewall, router, IDS etc to protect our information and secure our organization. A new challenge is coming on the horizon, biosecurity. We may think this a science fiction, but the truth is you already today can implant several devices in your body by yourself – and compromise the organization security on several levels. And this is what this talk is about – tomorrows security challenges.
This talk will cover the state of the art in biosecurity, including implanted magnetic sensors, NFC and RFID implants, implanted biomedical monitors and the security implications of implanted authentication devices. It will focus on new security challenges presented by implants available right now and those in the near future.
Previous Alex presented a new advance with cloning RFID access tags to implants. At HackCon he will cover this but expand it to include the new Mifare Classic cloneable implants he have developed.
The rise of cheap and easily available DIY implanted microprocessors brings with it a new set of security challenges. Such as covert data exfiltration and new vectors for malware infection. And yes, he will being a range of implantable devices to 'show and tell', and he can even implant RFID/NFC chips in people, if they want to.
Alex will have a small biosecurity "village" where you can test out DIY security implants.
