jfruh writes Want a good way to sell someone a new technology? Prove to them that you believe in it enough to use it yourself. Intel has been trying to get customers to buy into the concept of the "Internet of Things," in which tiny distributed networked sensors would improve manufacturing processes. To prove its point, they implemented such a system in one of their Malaysian factories, and claimed $9 million in savings.

Per Security Onion's Doug Burks, Seth Hall has developed some comprehensive ShellShock detection scripts for Bro.
These scripts "detect successful exploitation of the Bash vulnerability with CVE-2014-6271 nicknamed "ShellShock" and are more comprehensive than most detections in that they're watching for behavior from the attacked host that might indicate successful compromise or actual vulnerability."
Seth has updated these scripts again today to "Add shellscripts as a post-exploit detection mechanism."
Doug has updated the securityonion-bro-scripts package to include these changes and has also updated the securityonion-web-page package to include some ELSA queries for "ShellShock Exploits" and "ShellShock Scanners".

This is great for current Security Onion users, and even better for readers who have not yet investigated and invested in Security Onion. Now's the time to become familiar and improve your situational awareness, particularly given the fact that it's National Cyber Security Awareness Month. :-)

astroengine writes Whenever you look up at the near side of the moon, you see a face looking back at you. This is the "Man in the Moon" and it has inspired many questions about how it could have formed. There has been some debate as to how this vast feature — called Oceanus Procellarum, which measures around 1,800 miles wide — was created. But after using gravity data from NASA's twin GRAIL spacecraft, researchers have found compelling evidence that it was formed in the wake of a mega volcanic eruption and not the location of a massive asteroid strike.
