  1. That's interesting. With no seed, the only protection is keeping the executable secret. Technistore allow you to download it from their site, oddly.
  2. This is the thing - it is virtually impossible to secure an executable such that you can't get the algorithm out. The security has to be in the key (the secret). If the key is only 8 bits, then guessing it isn't going to be hard. Have their been many changes in anti-codes recently? Do new panels have new decoders? Which standard or body is it that dictates how anti-codes are used?
  3. Another question about impressions of security. I'm looking at anti-codes at the moment, which seem common on monitored systems. Typically this takes a 5 digit quote code along with a secret seed, and generates a 5 digit reset code (along these lines, anyway). It turns out for the few decoders I have now looked at, the secret seed can be determined from a one or two pairs of quote/reset codes. If this seed was constant across an entire installer or manufacturer, this could present a risk. What are your thoughts on this?
  4. It doesn't take me much longer to get from West London to the NEC than getting to Excel, such is the public transport.
  5. I'm starting to get quite frustrated at the archaic attitudes to disclosure in the physical security world.

  6. I really don’t have much luck with trains. Last one cancelled, one I am on very slow.

  7. Or a Moomin. Not sure which will ensure more personal space.

  8. "What a bored hacker did on a plane?" Despite being innocuous, brave (silly?) for doing this... http://t.co/OLENSXkI9I

  9. A lovely weekend! Lunch with sister and mum, ambulance, park, insect hunting, steam museum. So tired!

  10. Epic arrogance from a Cisco employee on twitter, calling a customer a “punk ass bitch”.

  11. Interesting blog post about a rubidium clock from a plane used for a frequency hopping system http://t.co/enBLZUGJsN

  12. RT @mattblaze: At times like this, remember Occam's Razor: the simplest explanation - a giant, invisible all-powerful conspiracy - is usual…

  13. Total alarm bell boxes in and on our house = 7. This might be a bit higher than average.

  14. Really, why do so many people use crowd funding as an excuse for **** or delayed products? Or poor customer service?

  15. Why is the back of the Whitgift Centre styled like the bridge and stack on a cruise ship?

  16. Have you received @StickNFind stickers? Could you fill out this quick form so we can see how many people have issues https://t.co/hCSqsvd1u7

  17. The Pyronix panel is actually quite pretty compared to many. SPI between PIC and Si4432 has been sniffed nicely. http://t.co/55uV7tohkD

  18. RT @lecanardnoir: Why has the MHRA failed to removed unregistered homeopathic products from the market, especially during measles outbre ...

  19. It looks like the Pyronix system would be a challenge to hack as a black box. Luckily I don’t have that constraint.

  20. So, the PIC chips in the Pyronix system are vulnerable to the "Heart of Darkness" block erase hack http://t.co/TSOoqS66aR

  21. What's in the Pyronix Enforcer panel? http://t.co/mhFmCkEAIh

  22. Have to say, from a usability and responsiveness perspective, this Pyronix Enforcer is excellent. @pyronix

  23. The @pyronix Enforcer wireless alarm has arrived. Let the games begin!
