Through our support of the Honeynet Project, we recently attempted a new approach to visualizing attacks on their VOIP honeypots. The video is intended to be a high level (if not stylized) visualization of the early stages of a cyber criminal compromising a VOIP system. http://dataviz.com.au/blog/Visualizing_VOIP_attacks.html We wanted to find some interesting analogue data which could be collected and analysed quickly, and for this analysis to produce reasonably useful real world output... http://dataviz.com.au/blog/25102010_mouse_study.html Over the last month, we delivered presentations on Data visualization, VOIP Security and the Honeynet Project. Download a summary slide pack here.. http://dataviz.com.au/blog/20092010_Conference_slides.html It's been very exciting and busy 6 months at dataviz Australia, here are some of the projects we've been working on since our last update…. http://dataviz.com.au/blog/20092010_Spring_update.html This small experimental project was done for the Shadowserver Foundation. They are a volunteer, Not for Profit organization who deal in the capture, analysis and dissemination of data and intelligence relating to nefarious activity on the internet. They provided us with one day's volume of data (several gigabytes) for us to apply some known techniques, and experiment with some new ones. http://dataviz.com.au/shadowserver/ideas.html The "VOIP forensic challenge" consists of real world attack data, and poses some technical and reflective questions which challenge participants to piece together the clues, and discover some hidden attributes of the attacks. Participants will learn much about VOIP along the way, and as a result they will be better armed to mitigate the risk of attacks to VOIP systems. http://dataviz.com.au/blog/05062010_VOIP_forensic_challenge.html Our first month has been extremely busy and quite productive. In particular, we've been working on two new and interesting projects. One being a consultancy in the cybercrime... http://dataviz.com.au/blog/04032010_After_our_first_month.html We've spent much of our first week taking feedback from supporters, which has been overwhelming.
