Security
Beyond your cable modem
How not to do DOCSIS networks
Did you ever want to have access to a few hundred thousand network end points? Or a few hundred thousand phone numbers? A short look behind the curtains of how not to do network security.
Have you ever wondered why cable modem providers don’t allow you to swap out your modems with your own?
Once you look at the network your modem (and thus you once you gain access to it) has access to, a whole new world of security mess-up lies ahead.
Join me in exploring how DOCSIS (the standard behind cable modems) works, how it’s used today in a real life example setup, how you could potentially make it secure and what implications this has to you as an end user. I will also show you what happens if you don't look out for security on the DOCSIS network and how that can lead to compromising other people's modems, private networks and telephone access.

For years SCADA StrangeLove team speaks about vulnerabilities in Industrial Control Systems. Now we want to show by example of railway the link between information security and industrial safety and demonstrate how a root access gained in a few minutes can bring to naught all the years of efforts that were devoted to the improvement of fail-safety and reliability of the ICS system. Railroads is a complex systems and process automation is used in different areas: to control power, switches, ...
