With this post I would like to inform you that Jeriko moved in its own source code repository which you will be able to find here. There is also a discussion group here, if you feel like using it.

The version inside the new code repository is very different from the version you’ve seen before. [...]

During the easter break, I was playing with my my wireless Linksys IP camera which, although I bought several months ago, I hadn’t taken my time to give the attention this beauty deserves until now! :)

The model in particular is the WVC54GCA, which I would say is one of the most affordable Wi-Fi IP cameras out there (about GBP 80 in the UK), making it a great toy to tinker with. [...]

Over the last couple of weeks I’ve added more features to the Jeriko toolkit which I briefly covered in my post over here. For those of you who don’t know, Jeriko is a compilation of various bash scripts to ease manual penetration testing practices. The idea is to automate only the things which are sort of boring.

Anyway, now you have a few more scripts at your disposal. [...]

We certainly don’t need the ultimate pentesting framework but we can make use of the ultimate pen-testing environment.

This is sort of pre-announcement of a tool I am currently working on, different from jeriko, which I hope will improve the way we do pentests. The tool is in its early stage of development and I could make use of several JavaScript coders if someone is up for the challenge.

HoH has a new extension site code-named V2. V2 is essentially a wiki which we are planning to use for most of our projects. We are even thinking to port the GNUCITIZEN labs there. Right now, V2 is also the home of the Agile Hacking Project.

The purpose of V2 is to provide the HoH community, but not only, a common space for sharing work, research and developing projects and ideas. We’ve got tones of ideas which we hope to implement with the help of V2. [...]

This is a quick announcement regarding the Agile Hacking project. For those of you who are not familiar with this project, there is a post that you can go through over here.

So, the Agile Hacking project has found a new home in the newly established House of Hackers V2 initiative, which is essentially the House of Hackers‘ wiki. We plan to use V2 as our main project repository. [...]

A couple of years ago I started a project called AttackAPI. It kind of became a hit at the time because there was no other project that was doing the same thing. Btw, the situation remains the same.

Today the project is kind of dead because I am not actively developing it anymore. Most of my development time go to projects of greater importance such as Netsecurify, Websecurify, Blogsecurify and several others. [...]

Just a couple of months ago, we started HoH as one of our social experiments. Initially the network was composed of just about 10-15 people and there was nothing fancy about it. We didn’t even have a domain although we promised to ourselves that if we reach 1000 members we will certainly look into buying a domain and also investing into other resources.

Amazingly, we reached the 1000 cap quite rapidly and today the HoH network is just over 6000 members. [...]

TheWP Blogsecurify 1.0 plugin is out. It was announced on the Blogsecurify blog and I am going to announce it here once again just in case you somehow missed the news.

WP Blogsecurify is a security plugin for Wordpress designed to integrate several simple but important security patches for the popular blogging platform. This plugin was developed by the Blogsecurify team – a special division of GNUCITIZEN Information Security Think Tank. [...]

Well, this is going to be a very quick post. I would like to let you know that SecUrls was redesigned and now it feels a lot better then before. Keep in mind that this is just an experiment just like some of our other projects. If it does not prove to be valuable for us and others, we might shut it down.

If you have any suggestions or comments, let us know from our contact page.
