Physical security - Lockpicking
Physical security isn't just a concern of the IT world. Besides securing server rooms, locks of all sizes and styles are scattered throughout our lives. However, much of the general public is unaware of the insecurities present in many lock designs.
Through discussion and direct example, Deviant Ollam will address the strengths and weaknesses of standard security hardware. Discussion of effective tools, advanced techniques, master key theory, and lesser-known attacks will also be covered.

This talk is aimed at lockpick novices who are interested in achieving better security through an understanding of how locks can be compromised.

Many styles of practice locks and picks will be made available for hands-on audience participation.
Deviant Ollam
While paying the bills as a network engineer, Deviant Ollam's first and strongest love has always been teaching. A graduate of the New Jersey Institute of Technology's "Science, Technology, & Society" program, he is always fascinated by the interplay that connects human values and social trends to developments in the technical world. A fanatical supporter of First Amendment rights who believes that the best way to increase security is to publicly disclose vulnerabilities, Deviant has given lockpick demonstrations at DefCon, ShmooCon, HOPE, and the United States Military Academy at West Point.
