Give Me Your Data - Dave Chronister (ShowMeCon 2014) (Hacking Illustrated Series InfoSec Tutorial Videos)

Give Me Your Data
Dave Chronister

ShowMeCon 2014
http://www.showmecon.com

We hear new stories daily about a malicious hacker compromising the sensitive data of corporations, governments and individuals.  But that is only half of the story.  The genesis of this talk was from the idea that even today, data is still not stored securely.  Ethical Hacker conducted a research project in which he wanted to find out if he could gain access to sensitive data.  The catch?  He would not hack any systems, all data must be collected legally.  From buying devices on Facebook and bidding for Hard Drives on Ebay, to monitoring public photo sharing sites; Dave will discuss the methods to retrieve the information.  Dave will show his findings, some of which is very suprising.
