More details on the Greek wiretapping issue are emerging. Bruce Schneier wrote in his blog, that it turns out that the “malicious code” was actually code designed into the system and that the attackers managed to bypass the authorization mechanisms of the eavesdropping system, and activate the “lawful interception” module in the mobile network.

German TV channel VOX interviewed me for their evening news. They asked my opinion on emergency and business continuity plans in order to prevent heavy losses as a result of possible avian influenza pandemia. As some of you know, my company is also a business continuity management consultancy and I’ve got something to say about this issue.

Guten Tag,
I thought it was about time to change the menu structure and the design of this website. The old page is located here but not maintained. I think in a couple of months I’ll delete the old stuff.
This weekend I also switched to a new ISP. Now I can handle all my sites easier. Now everything should be fine.
Have fun, folks
Alex

computer-forensics tool. In this I am adressing the following issues: are open-source tools better than closed-source tools, and what about freeware vs. nonfree software? I describe which function is essential in which situation, and what should be in an investigator’s toolbox. Another issue is the relevance of digital evidence in a German court. more…
