DC3 results came out two weeks ago. We didn't win, although, we didn't expect to win. What I was hoping for was a ranking list, but that won't be released for some time yet, along with the actual solutions to the challenges. That makes the waiting that much more difficult! The Academic category winner was UoSF, who where the ones everyone expected to take the lead. The Commercial winner, however, was AccessData, makers of Forensic Toolkit. Not sure how I feel about that. I mean, it's their business to do this stuff, how much of a challenge could that be for them?
Got some mail last week about several computers on campus being part of a meshed, multi-school, FTP warez network. First time I had encountered this. The systems apparently kept in touch with each other and distributed the files amongst themselves. I seized 1 one of the machines here and am running an analysis on it. More about that later when I find something of interest. The other one is in a computer lab which makes it harder to find. One PC in a room of indistinguishable PCs. "Just trace the cables!" I wish it were that easy. I don't have access to the switch to do that. Gonna have to check MACs instead.
