The hunt for lulzsec

Lulzsec Exposed is still on the hunt for Sabu.

We now have to competing ideas on who he is.
One is a guy from New York, the other is from Portugal. Not that I am downing any of the theories but I am still on the fence on who is right if any of them.

I really don’t trust any of the evidence presented, but I also to agree with the conclusions they have made with the rebuttals. I wish they would tests them.

When I talk of evidence I mean any of it from anyone.

More lulz

It appears after Topiary was picked up the http://lulzsecurity.com site is down for the count. This also seems to be directly linked to viral being picked up.

There is more information here on him, http://lulzsecexposed.blogspot.com/2011/08/topiary-vanned.html .

There will be a wealth of information collected from the boxes at his moms place I am sure.

If he was smart I am sure he had full disk encryption but…

You can get around it (well if you have not yanked the cord)
He will have to release the key to them at some point, it’s an offence not to. ( http://blog.ironkey.com/?p=842 )

There is some interesting ways to get around disk encryption, and they are all lots of fun. I will have to get in to that someday.
