Mac Used for Wardriving on 60 Minutes

Thought it was funny, this past Sunday’s 60 Minutes on CBS aired a segment called “High-Tech Heist” — specifically about credit card fraud and vulnerability in the physical world.  They talked to staff at the FBI and showed how easy it is to buy and sell card numbers and ‘full identities’ online — no big shock there.      One of the CBS reporters drove around with an InfoSec expert who was using his Mac and KisMAC to do some Wardriving, which was amusing.   They talked about cracking WEP, and a few other basic concepts.  Interesting.    For anyone who wants to play with KisMAC, get it here.   More on KisMAC soon.
