      @@endingwithali thanks... I understand... just to clarify my question... if Ceasars is not allowing DEFCON on their properties because of some reason related to the MGM hack, how might this affect whoever is allowing BlackHat on their properties. Where ever BlackHat is being held the venue doesn't seem to be as worried or concerned about Cyber specialists holding a security/anti-security event on their properties... also... are both events being held during the same week? I haven't checked yet...

    in some ways the lvcc is better than any caesar property. the area is far bigger, and possibly attendees no longer have to “make a hole” while standing in line in the hallways. they hold ces and other large expos there every year. it’s more laid out but at least there’s no winding around in the casino floors with all the slot machines and security cameras right in your face. one problem might be the monorail as a bottleneck if everyone remains coming from that location.

      @jmr 3 місяці тому

      An attacker would have to rewrite the firmware, get it loaded on the toothbrush, and then connect the toothbrush to the internet. Using WiFi constantly would drain the battery fast, cause the toothbrush to lose connectivity with the app, and cause the owner to replace it.
      A researcher might do that but a real attacker wouldn't.

      @@jmr Depends how stupidly advanced the toothbrush is. Most electric toothbrushes spend most of their life on charge remember. There are tons of devices and appliances that have constant Wi-Fi connections that you'd think they really shouldn't, from coffee machines to CPAP machines. A toothbrush isn't _that_ far removed.
      Imagine a brushing and dental health app with gamified system. Telemetry as a diversified income stream... subscription tiers, pay to remove ads, in-app ordering of special toothpaste and floss.. I'm surprised it doesn't already exist!
