Have been so lazy about posting anything lately. Have gotten into a routine with work mostly. And got a copy of COD4 for the ps3, so have been 'busy'. On the other end of things though I am in a new adventure of web application security. Kind of complex since I haven't done any before. Starting to make sense though. Also a little system level security. Setting up a snort server in a virtual machine with freeBSD. Could be interesting. An excuse to play around with BSD Jails. Haven't really used that yet much. Similar to solaris containers. Concept is easy to understand, and likely not that hard to use regularly once I use it a lot.

Also ordered a book on rootkits and another on honeypots. Could be interesting to build my own security test network. See how things work at a finer level. Kind of a shift in direction for me, but still interesting. And can use the number crunching stuff to deal with brute force decryption.....
