300K servers are still vulnerable to Heartbleed

Despite a great start, the rate of patching OpenSSL servers against the critical
Heartbleed vulnerability has slowed down to almost a halt. Around 300,000
servers remain vulnerable and many of them are unlikely to get patched anytime
soon.

Darlene Storm: Can sharing your open Wi-Fi network with strangers promote privacy and security?


In the continuing saga of the Open Wireless Movement, the EFF will release
firmware at HOPE X in order to help people share a little slice of bandwidth on
their home Wi-Fi network without sacrificing privacy or security; freely sharing
open Wi-Fi will supposedly put people at no legal risk since an IP is not a
person. While it sounds like a happy world to live in – free Wi-Fi
everywhere – how many legal battles will have to be fought and won before
open wireless networks are so ubiquitous that it's no longer
"reasonable" for law enforcement to automatically investigate an IP
address captured during a crime?

Kenneth van Wyk: If you want developers to give a hoot about security, take a lesson from the squirrels

The problem with all too many software developers, from a security
professional's point of view, is they lack a healthy sense of mistrust.
