24C3 - report part 9 - Security Nightmares 2008

Frank and Ron filled the "told you so"-karma with the annual Security Nightmares presentation/brainstorming. After a short retrospect they had a look into the crystal ball. Some predictions that were mentioned:

• hijacking of industrial robots will increase
• people will go to jail due to wrong time zone configuration of log servers
• more flash memory problems - e.g. no proper cleaning possible
• more VoIP-hacks
• hacking of large scale storage/computing backends like Amazon S3
• malware for mobile phones especially on iPhone
• crowed-sourcing for breaking CAPTCHA
