Dread Pirate Roberts, Leaking Data...

September 10, 2014 by Marc Handelman in All is Information, Application Security, Blatant Stupidity, Cybernetic Crime

Today's MustRead - via the inimitable Brian Krebs at Krebs on Security - targets the nefarious Dread Pirate Roberts. Allegedly the Master of the Silk Road, and the ramifications to the configuration of the sites' conceptually flawed CAPTCHA configuration (utilizing data from the open interweb, rather than the apparently less-than-dark web). Enjoy!
