Beating Back the Physical Security Boogeyman: How to Stop Fearing Things That Go Bump in the Night

Deviant Ollam

If you haven't yet heard of the physical security risk known as "bump keying" there's a good chance you've either been living under a rock or have no duties whatsoever that involve oversight of facilities or infrastructure. If you would like to learn more about this frightening new style of attack against pin tumbler locks and what is being developed to counter it, this talk may be for you.

In a short session, Deviant will cover the basics of the bump key threat (for the benefit of those who still aren't aware of it) and describe the techniques that hardware manufacturers and locksmiths are experimenting with to counter it. Some of these developments have real promise, others may just be smoke and mirrors. Don't invest in one of the wrong solutions that are being rolled out in the face of this highly-charged (and often misunderstood) security concern.
