Johhny Long: No-tech Hacking
from DEFCON 15 [Audio] Speeches from the hacker conventions Hosted by DEF CON Announcements
Johnny Long was a relative forensics newbie who was faced with the challenge of hunting down the amazingly agile and paranoid "Knuth" from the best-selling Syngress 'stealing the Network? book series. In the story, Knuth melted down his hard drive platters and USB sticks before leaving the country, leaving any investigator next to no digital evidence. Fortunately for the good guys, Knuth left behind some oft-neglected hardware that left him open to a "death by a thousand cuts". As a result of the writing experience, Johnny learned to look in oft-neglected places for digital evidence, and has been given a whole new perspective on digital forensics. Johnny has authored and co-authored several books, including 'stealing the Network: How to own the Identity? by Syngress publishing.
