Transcript
[FULL TRANSCRIPT]
JACK: Hey, it’s Jack, host of the show. A long time ago I set up a file-sharing website at home on a Raspberry Pi. I set it up to make it easy to transfer files between me and anyone I needed to send files to. It was a simple website; drag and drop the file onto the webpage and boom, it’s hosted on my website for like, a week, and then it gets deleted. I knew it wasn’t secure so I never posted anything that was sensitive to it but I also took this opportunity to see if I could detect anyone trying to hack into the thing. I set up all my best sensors I had at home; a firewall, an intrusion detection system, full packet captures using Security Onion, I turned on tons of logging and watched but nothing happened. Nobody knew my site existed to even think about trying to exploit it. Oh, well.
