[Lilug-si-sig] SISIG tonight, network monitoring

[John Zabroski]

Hi guys,
I miss you all. Still up here in Bostin, but I am interested in security again. Notably, some crazy stuff is going down:
* Chinese security researchers showing how to use mencache to generate 2TB/sec from a "family office"* The general mechanization of security attacks. Especially on mobile phones with attacks like TOASTAMIGO.* My general Spidey sense tingling me and telling me this is going to be a VERY BAD year for vulnerabilities. People keep wondering if Trump or China or Bitcoin or some shady corporation will cause the next economic meltdown. I'm most concerned about massive wire fraud the likes we have never seen. Newtonian calculus could in theory catch some of it, in the same way it can be used for ingres / infiltration atttacks, but who is doing that broadly enough to protect the general population? Serious question, anyone know?
