Who: Alex Floyd
What: July DC206 Meeting: AMD and Intel architectural differences
When: July 16th (3rd Sundays), 1-4pm
Where: Black Lodge Research; 17725 NE 65th St, A-155; Evans Business Park, Building A; Redmond, WA 98052 USA

Computer chipsets have vastly evolved over the last decade. In this talk we take a look at the design differences of AMD and Intel architectures from Intel’s 1st gen core series to Kaby Lake, and AMD’s Bulldozer (Family 15h) through the evolution to AMD’s APU series up to Zen. This look will show us the chipset logical layout changes for AMD and Intel over the generations, and why each iteration is better or worse for practical real world applications because of the logical chipset designs.
Researched and written by some guy that likes learning things that not every one knows.

WHAT: BLR assembler class: Intro to Radare2/Iaito
WHEN: Sunday, July 9th (2rd Sundays), 1:00pm
WHO: ‘Blibbet’
WHERE: Black Lodge Research; 17725 NE 65th St, Unit A-155; Evans Business Park, Building A; Redmond, WA 98052; https://blacklodgeresearch.org/
No new Intel assembly this month, instead we’ll focus on a tool. This class will focus on getting started with Radare2 and the new Iaito GUI. We’ll look at how to use Radare to examine x86 assembly-based ELF32 images. This won’t be a full Radare2 feature tutorial — I’m just learning it myself — rather a basic use of radare2/iaito to examine assembly language. Unlike some tools, Radare is very powerful with a steep initial ramp-up (like Vim or Blender), you’ll need to spend a few days to get used to using this tool. We’ll cover a small set of it’s core features, focusing on unassembly and viewing the stack. 2/3 of the time on Radare, 1/3 on Iaito GUI.
To prepare, get Radare2 and Iaito installed on your system. Radare has lots of binary packages, Iaito is Qt 5.x C++ and has nearly no packaging so you’ll have to build it from source, unless you’re using BlackArch-Live Linux distro. I’ll assume you have the software installed before class. Get your previous homework on that system, so you can examine those binaries with Radare.

For the last year or so, the DC206 Mailing list has been hard to subscribe to, the list’s host went down and the list was migrated to a temporary server. Recently, Noid has ‘rebooted’ the list, so normal methods to subscribe to the list should now work.
Subscribe by emailing list-request@lists.dc206.org with the subject “subscribe”, or use the web form at:
http://lists.dc206.org/listinfo.cgi/list-dc206.org
Besides the Black Lodge Research classroom whiteboard, the DC206 Mailing List is the main place where announcements for the DC206 Monthly Meeting, Black Lodge Research’s Open Hack Night, Black Lodge Research’s assembly language class) occur. The archives of the list are not open to the public, either.

What: Building the Quadrifly indoor drone game
When: January 15th (3rd Sundays), 1pm
Where: Black Lodge Research; 17725 NE 65th St, A-155; Evans Business Park, Building A; Redmond, WA 98052 USA
Dan Tebbs of Quadrifly will present on the new indoor drone game that was assembled at BLR. Dan will give a 45min presentation describing what he’s done. Interesting challenges which he will talk about include: Creating the scoring gates, Selecting a drone, and Hacking the control channel. There will be a small version of the game to be played in the lodge, so attendees should be able to play a minimal version of the game for a few minutes.

Introduction to Social Engineering
by Zach
In this introductory presentation on social engineering, the speaker will dissect a few of his more fun engagements and walk through the prep work and psychological techniques that made the attacks work
Zach has over 10 years of experience with social engineering in a variety of roles, from defusing hostile people and drunk wrangling, to conning creds and gaining access as “your IT guy”. His enjoyment of studying human behavior and learning what makes people tick in combination with his ability to talk to anyone is what makes him successful in his practices.

“Threat Modeling Lessons From Star Wars”
by Adam Shostack
Everyone knows you ought to threat model, but in practical reality it turns out to be tricky. If past efforts to threat model haven’t panned out, perhaps part of the problem is confusion over what works, and how the various approaches conflict or align. This talk captures lessons from years of work helping people throughout the software industry threat model more effectively. It’s designed to help security pros, developers and systems managers, all of whom will leave with both threat modeling lessons from Star Wars and a proven foundation, enabling them to threat model effectively.
Adam is an entrepreneur, technologist, author and game designer. He’s a member of the BlackHat Review Board, and helped found the CVE and many other things. He’s currently building his 5th startup, focused on improving security effectiveness, and mentors startups as a Mach37 Star Mentor. While at Microsoft, he drove the Autorun fix into Windows Update, was the lead designer of the SDL Threat Modeling Tool v3 and created the “Elevation of Privilege” game. Adam is the author of “Threat Modeling: Designing for Security,” and the co-author of “The New School of Information Security.”

For those that have been wondering what happened to the DC206 mailing list for the last week, here’s an update.
- On Monday 5/30 the box that hosts the mailing list went down unexpectedly. We initially believed that there was too much draw on the UPS and that was causing boxes to brown out.
- By Thursday 6/2 we concluded that the power supply in the server had failed. You could smell that the magic smoke had been let out of the PSU. We replaced the PSU in the server and it *seemed* to fix the problem till the unexpected shutdowns happened again. From what we can tell the PSU died and like some sort of copper and aluminum asshole, damaged he motherboard on the way out.
So, when will things be back up and operational? Unfortunately we are looking at another week to get the box fixed. The timing on this couldn’t be worse. Between a rush project at work and Toorcamp, I have had minimal cycles to work on this. Once I return from Toorcamp I will get a new mobo in the box and get us back up and running.
I apologize for any inconvenience this is causing.
