You can transfer any type of image that has been printed from a laser printer, or that you find in a book or magazine. To transfer an image onto glass, fix adhesive packing tape to the image you’d like to transfer. Soak the image and tape in warm water, then remove the paper and stick the image onto a glass object. Alternately, you can use a gel transfer medium to move the image directly on to a glass surface.

15-Year-old Finds Flaw in Ledger Crypto Wallet
by BrianKrebs @ Krebs on Security
Tue Mar 20 10:19:11 PDT 2018
A 15-year-old security researcher has discovered a serious flaw in cryptocurrency hardware wallets made by Ledger, a French company whose popular products are designed to physically safeguard public and private keys used to receive or spend the user’s cryptocurrencies. Hardware wallets like those sold by Ledger are designed to protect the user's private keys from malicious software that might try to harvest those credentials from the user's computer. The devices enable transactions via a connection to a USB port on the user's computer, but they don't reveal the private key to the PC. Yet Saleem Rashid, a 15-year-old security researcher from the United Kingdom, discovered a way to acquire the private keys from the Ledger devices. Rashid's method requires an attacker to have physical access to the device, and normally such attacks would fall under the #1 rule of security -- namely, if an attacker has physical access to your device it is not your device anymore.

Adrian Lamo, ‘Homeless Hacker’ Who Turned in Chelsea Manning, Dead at 37
by BrianKrebs @ Krebs on Security
Sun Mar 18 20:53:12 PDT 2018
Adrian Lamo, the hacker probably best known for breaking into The New York Times's network and for reporting Chelsea Manning's theft of classified documents to the FBI, was found dead in a Kansas apartment on Wednesday. Lamo was widely reviled and criticized for turning in Manning, but that chapter of his life eclipsed the profile of a complex individual who taught me quite a bit about security over the years. Adrian Lamo, in 2006. Source: Wikipedia. I first met Lamo in 2001 when I was a correspondent for Newsbytes.com, a now-defunct tech publication that was owned by The Washington Post at the time. A mutual friend introduced us over AOL Instant Messenger, explaining that Lamo had worked out a simple method allowing him to waltz into the networks of some of the world's largest media companies using nothing more than a Web browser.

What Is Your Bank’s Security Banking On?
by BrianKrebs @ Krebs on Security
Tue Mar 06 13:24:17 PST 2018
A large number of banks, credit unions and other financial institutions just pushed customers onto new e-banking platforms that asked them to reset their account passwords by entering a username plus some other static identifier -- such as the first six digits of their Social Security number, or a mix of partial SSN, date of birth or surname. Here's a closer look at what may be going on (spoiler: small, regional banks and credit unions have grown far too reliant on the whims of just a few major online banking platform providers). You might think it odd that any self-respecting financial institution would seek to authenticate customers via static data like partial SSN for passwords, and you'd be justified for thinking that, too. Nobody has any business using these static identifiers for authentication because it's all for sale on most Americans quite easily and cheaply in the cybercrime underground. The Equifax breach might have "refreshed" some of those data stores for identity thieves, but most U.S. adults have had their static details on sale for years now. On Feb. 16, KrebsOnSecurity reader Brent Hoeft shared a copy of an email he'd just received from his financial institution Associated Bank, which at $30+ billion in assets happens to be Wisconsin's largest by asset size.
