Back from Black Hat Briefings 2007

Came back from a sunny and hot as .... Las Vegas. We spent 10 days in the desert this year too.
Black Hat was great this year, as last year, as the year before that etc..

Before the briefings this year, my friends and I agreed upon listening to briefings on topics that
we rarely come in touch with. One of our choices fell on presentation about navigations systems. Two guys from Italy gave a cool and entertaining presentation about "freaking out satellites" by injecting RDS-TMC traffic information signals.

Another interesting speech was Bruce Schneier's "The psychology of Security". Bruce really proved to have good understanding of the human mind.

As almost every year, Black Hat briefings 2007 was worth every penny.
