Yeah, I know, this talk is about 9 years old by now.... But I think I can help you out with the name of the person who re-introduced a major flaw in the Cryptonite lock. His or her name is Junior Procurement Manager, typically with an BA in Marketing. I have worked as a product developer for major consumer brands (toys, household, medical) for 20+ years and the pattern is always the same: STEP 1: company/division comes under new management STEP 2: old = expensive guys are fired STEP 3: young = cheaper people are hired, preferably from a company where the new CEO had some half-important job or got fired for incompetence STEP 4: rookie manager has a "great" idea: "why don't we replace this precision-ground carbide pin with a piece of gum?" STEP 5: "great" idea gets implemented because the old guys aren't around any more STEP 6: "improved" product fails and retailers won't list it any more STEP 7: at the shareholder meeting CEO declares the failure as a success, as this "old" product was preventing the company "to move on" anyway...

Great write up...used to be: product/service+customer=profit. Now debt+BS=profit...still not understanding how everything running on debt is possible? Some companies are too big to fail and the rest of us have to borrow from them...but then where is the money? Cause the obvious answer is the lenders have it all...if that's it, then the only way to start to fix things is get rid of money lenders/creators so things run on actual value instead of speculation?

One of the most challenging talks at DEFCON is how to change your windshield wipers. Also, removing windshield wipers on a rainy morning is a terrible thing to do to a neighbor you actually hate.

[@evensgrey]

In practice, of course, bike thieves didn't generally use the self-impression attack against u-locks (at least, bit until this defect was fixed). The length of the bar extended past the U-bar was easily used as a base for a cheater bar (like a couple of feet of pipe, also helpful as a weapon in case someone tries to stop the thief) to simply break the two parts apart. This is a destructive attack, so it is outside the scope of the talk.

Dcool FYI a tubular pick as mentioned in other talks works really easy once you get the hang , much easier then bumping or standard picking in my experience

[@truthhurts7892]

@@aric1666 I agree when it comes to old tubular locks; however, with newer tubular locks, it's quiet difficult to pick them based on the location of the tensioner. You can always get special tools, but that doesn't help you when you need a tubular lock opened the same day. (Edit: I have the tubular lock picks and I can only pick the new lock by soldering on a temporary metal bump onto the tool, then remove it afterwards. You can use JB Weld, but that permanently alters your tool)

A good place to get wind shield wipers is in the outside trash cans in front of auto parts stores or in the dumpster out back. Your welcome and stay lawful.

[@AngryHybridApe]

Grind them to shape on the edge of the sidewalk. Street sweepr blades do work better, but you cant bend the lever at a 90° angle very sharp without breaking it. Torch lighter and slow cool it softens the metal for a 90° bend. Do not distemper the pick though. Grind the end like this. ^-------###. Dont try bending it, it wont. I can get in about 50/50 pad locks and almost all master padlocks. Master locks are the shitiest. Some take longer than others, but the right, very light tension on the lever and one tumbler at a time, the lever will drop when you get a tumbler right. The last ones always the hardest cuz it holds all the tension at that point. I should just do a video of it. But I dont want cops nailing me for burglaries.

[@DoctorAutopsy]

Thanks to this video and this comment, I yanked a pair of broken wipers out of the trash today. Time to make some tension wrenches...

26:00 Back in high school everyone had the "Dudley" locks, and they were pretty decent.. I took them apart and figured this all out too. However, they also have a reverse combination.. usually you turn clockwise first, but you can do it going counterclockwise too, there's just an offset to the numbers (it was like +28 for the first number and -14 for the second or so) So between my friends and I we could exchange our locker combinations in plaintext because everyone would try the conventional way to unlock them :)

[@dragonmudd]

@@bryanl1984 In the absence of an exploit, not necessarily. The total number of possible combinations is (number of elements) to the power of (number of wheels). So if you have 3 wheels of 10 digits, there are 10^3 or 1000 combinations. Adding an additional element would just make it 11^3 or 1,331 combinations, but adding an extra wheel would make it 10^4 or 10,000 combinations. If our "wheels" had only 2 elements though, then going from 2^3 =8 to 3^3=27 is better than going to 2^4=16.

@Schuylertowne I work in supply chain and manufacturing. To find the chinese lock person you could start with inventory records to find date of firat reciept. From there you should be able to identify the purchase order and who raised it. However it is unlikely this person was the actual decision maker. But will be able to provide dates. Just prior to the order being raised there will have been some sort of Lean, or continuous improvement program started. When these implementations are done poorly they are overseen by accounting. If you are really lucky you will find evidence that the company expected to save "x" cents per unit and therefore "y"0,000 dollars per annum. Hope this speess up your digging.

At 34:47 "accidentally reinvigorated" - what a concept! This notion can be generalized across many industries, and a common issue today seems to be that design and production cost decision-making is being handed to perhaps young MBAs or even engineering grads who have academic knowledge, but no background in the specific history of their company product. My favorite gripe is the modern pitcher that is certain to drip and run back down the side, because it was designed on a computer screen, and they never learned about adding the little overhang on the tip of the spout, that keeps liquid from adhering and flowing down the container side. Old factory apprenticeships, where one worked up from assembly or production lines into management, seeded essential awareness of nuances in aspects learned over years of trial-and-error. Smart a** folks who enter a company and are dropped into decision-making are the bane of modern corporations, jeopardizing solid real-world accumulated experience in favor of abstract virtual-world training. Kids used to play with everything, imparting tactile awareness and a deeper sense of materials and how things went together. The Kryptonite guy was most likely fired, we would presume - but ironically, if he and the company learned from this mistake, both might have been future-proofed in the Garp-buy-the-house-already-hit-by-crashed-airplane mode, "work hardened" as it were, so making them a lot more circumspect and less likely to fall for the same issue again. But that will make for a dandy story we are waiting for....

[@wizbangFLL]

Yes, it is sort of sad how many corporate IT departments make their systems and networks "less secure" because the bean counters are demanding fewer and fewer $$ be allocated to IT. My favorite was the company I worked for who decided to install VOIP phones in all their offices and pulled out all of the POTS lines. They also decided to have one data center with local redundancy in 2 buildings next to each other. They had previously had 2 locations in different parts of the US for disaster recovery, business continuation and redundancy. Someone was wiring a new group of servers and cut an electrical/data cable which fried one buildings servers and cut power to both buildings and because their power backup was located between the 2 it couldn't connect to either building because of where the damage was. So all computers were down, all email was down, none of the phones worked, there were no phone numbers that weren't tied to the VOIP system and apps that were in our smart phones that allowed us to access cell phone numbers for other employees were not available because they required authentication from the corporate server. Talk about a 3 day fuster cluck to get the servers working at basic levels and another 3 to 5 days to get things fully recovered with all data lost from the day the issue first started. Somehow the company was able to hide what happened from the media., even though they were trying to snoop around to find out what occurred.

If it works at all, just give the safe a good shake and the wheel will all settle heavy side down. However, if the locking thingie (pin/rail?) is not above the wheels, it would not work, as shown in the video. If the wheels are deliberately rebalanced so the angle between the cutout and the center of mass of the disk are at different angles for each disk, this method will not work at all.
