Pur non essendo in alcun modo leagato al sito ed al partito qui sopra, segnalo questa iniziativa perchè merta di essere votata visti la difficile situazione dei disoccupati over 40 in Italia. Grazie.
This presentation will look at crisis mapping technology from the perspective of an attacker such as a hostile government, terrorist organization, or organized crime group. From this point of view we will see what can be done to prevent access to crisis maps, manipulate data received by crisis mapping platforms, and expose those using the systems to attack.
The presentation will use examples of actual vulnerabilities and attacks that have already been seen in the wild and will conclude with some of the steps that have been taken to defend crisis maps in the field.
