When your first defcon talk gets nuked for a year and it's legality is questioned by the authorities, <i>you're a welcome addition to the speakers.</i>

When the talk is so good and so damaging, even Defcon quarantines it for a year to let the manufacturer catch up.

Friendly reminder: If someone says a system is hackproof, and there aren't all kinds of alarms going off in your head, check the alarm system, <i>someone might have hacked it.</i>

The single thing that tremendously improves the security of the Knox box is connection to the intrusion alarm. This way, they can get into the building, but the police will already be notified before you are in the door. I, as a firefighter, don't care in the least if I trigger the intrusion alarm, since the police were dispatched at the same time that I was. However, depending on where you are, police response can be spotty at best. The intruder does know that the sword of Damocles is hanging over their heads once they open the box and the police will be there at some point. If the box has the buttons installed, but not wired, the thief may not be able to be sure if they are dummies or not.

What an excellent speaker, and such amazing information. <br>Knox needs to give this young man some reward for pointing out how pointless their boxes are.<br>Well done :P

The first video showing the Medeco key also explained the access code was the same two digits followed by the last four digits of the fighterfighter's SSN.

This is why mandatory backdoors are always wrong, and should be resisted/sabotaged by all means necessary.
