Twiddlebit: Die Programmiersprache Forth about this event: https://c3voc.de

The assembly will try to collect your tool-stories, the mysterious setup of your most mundane tasks or the most elaborate (yet unfinished) projects to code where others have been using pen and paper for ages. In workshops we will tell our own stories and help you to become as addicted to the command line as we are. Most important, we will be there for all our fellow addicts of tool-chain-optimisat...

Quelle von Datensätzen, Logistik von Big Data, Bildung effizienter Features, Principal Component Analysis und andere statistische Methoden, Clustering, Neuronale Netzwerke vs. Deep Learning, Wie interpretiere ich Daten, Präsentation von Ergebnissen about this event: https://c3voc.de

SecureDrop is an free software whistleblower submission system that media organizations can use to securely accept documents from and communicate with anonymous sources. It was originally created by the late Aaron Swartz and is currently managed by Freedom of the Press Foundation. about this event: https://c3voc.de

Worldview change and and critique are two related topics which can both be approached as a hunt for security vulnerabilities. In this talk, I will present a model for "inflitrating misconceptions" to upgrade worldviews, and I will show how this is similar to an enantiodromial model of conceptual critique. http://andersaamodt.com/oeuvre.php about this event: https://c3voc.de

In this talk I describe the basic makeup of FPGAs and how I reverse engineered the Xilinx 7 Series and Lattice iCE40 Series together with the implications. about this event: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2017/Fahrplan/events/9237.html

SafetyNet Attestation is the primary platform security service on Android. Until recently you had to use third party tools or implemented your own app integrity checks and device rooting checks. Today you can use Android's SafetyNet Attestation infrastructure to ensure the integrity of your application and the user's device. Unfortunately, SafetyNet Attestation is not well documented by Google. Th...

In German nursing science the dominant position on emergent technologies demands the removal of machines from caring environments („Entmaschinisierung“). In contrast to this, European research policy heavily focus on developing new health and social technologies to solve societal issues like a skill shortage in nursing. Thinking about technology in nursing science cannot but be conflicted. In this...

For non specialists, Electromagnetic Pulse weapons (EMP) are fantasy weapons in science fiction movies. Interestingly, the susceptibility of electronic devices to electromagnetic interference has been advertised since the 90’s. Regarding the high integration of sensors and digital systems to control power-grids, telecom networks and automation infrastructures (e.g. Smart-grids, Industrial Control...

This talk considers the visceral relationship one can have towards intangible media, notably sound and network data transmissions. Sarah presents a selection of her work demonstrating these synesthetic relationships, ranging from experiments in bio and fiber arts to interface design and educational tools for demystifying computer networking technology. about this event: https://fahrplan.events.ccc...

Staatstrojaner, Vorratsdaten, automatisierte Biometriesammlungen, PC-Wahl – wir geben einen Überblick über die Themen, die den Chaos Computer Club 2017 beschäftigt haben. Neben der Zusammenfassung und der Rückschau auf das vergangene Jahr wollen wir aber auch über zukünftige Projekte und anstehende Diskussionen reden. about this event: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2017/Fahrplan/events/9...

A talk on waiting for the technological rapture in the church of big data. The paralysing effect of hiding the human hand in software through anthropomorphising computers and dehumanising ourselves. about this event: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2017/Fahrplan/events/9296.html

Eine wissenschaftliche Perspektive auf die achtlose Anwendung der Algorithmen des maschinellen Lernens und der künstlichen Intelligenz, z. B. in personalisierten Nachrichtenempfehlungssystemen oder Risikosoftware im US-Justizsystem. about this event: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2017/Fahrplan/events/8811.html

Wouldn’t it be awesome to have a microscope which allows scientists to map atomic details of viruses, film chemical reactions, or study the processes in the interior of planets? Well, we’ve just built one in Hamburg. It’s not table-top, though: 1 billion Euro and a 3km long tunnel is needed for such a ‘free electron laser’, also called 4th generation synchrotron light source. I will talk about the...

In the past decade, machine learning researchers and theorists have created deep learning architectures which seem to learn complex topics with little intervention. Newer research in adversarial learning questions just how much “learning" these networks are doing. Several theories have arisen regarding neural network “blind spots” which can be exploited to fool the network. For example, by changin...

„5.-Klässlerinnen, die über die Millisekunden für einen delay()-Aufruf diskutieren! Gibt es nicht? Doch, gibt es!“ Ein Modellprojekt mit sieben Schulen in Aachen hat diese Frage untersucht – wir haben die Schülerinnen und Schüler begleitet und würden gerne darüber berichten, denn wir wissen jetzt: Programmieren macht ihnen Spaß! about this event: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2017/Fahrpl...

Gleich in drei Gesetzen drohen Netzsperren. Staatstrojaner und Massenüberwachung bis ins WLAN sind mit der Einführung der Überwachungsgesetze BÜPF und NDG vorgesehen. E-Voting soll auf Biegen und Brechen durchgesetzt werden. Nur garantierte Netzneutralität lässt weiter auf sich warten. Im Vortrag versuchen wir, Einsichten in die aktuellen netzpolitischen Auseinandersetzungen in der Schweiz zu gebe...

Many mobile network operators rush to upgrade their networks to 4G/LTE from 2G and 3G, not only to improve the service, but also the security. The Diameter protocol - the successor of SS7 in Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks is believed to offer more protection to the network itself and to the end-users. However, also Diameter offers a rich functionality set, which can be also exploited and misus...

Over the past year, we have been developing open source wheelchair add-ons through user research, ideation, design, prototyping and testing. We present the outcome and insights from the process. about this event: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2017/Fahrplan/events/8814.html

Backing up private keys in a secure manner is not straightforward. Once a backup has been compromised you need to refresh all your key material. For example, the disclosure of a private key of a Bitcoin wallet gives access to the coins inside. This makes it unattractive to store a complete backup of your private key(s) with your bank or your spouse. The better option would be to split the key into...

Lots of research are arising from the fairly unexplored world of automative communications. Cars are no longer becoming computers, they are fully connected networks where every ECU exchanges and operates the vehicles at some point. Here is an introduction of my immersion and discussions with my car, and how I finally managed to drift (a bit) with my mom's FWD Fiat 500c. This talk is not only about...

While technology is often described as an extension of our bodies, this talk will explore a reversed relationship: Bodies and minds of digital laborers (you and me and basically everybody else) as software extensions that can be easily plugged in, rewired, and discarded. I will approach this topic from an artist's point of view. From CAPTCHAS as micro jobs for training AI to people having to prete...

In this talk we will present a deep-dive analysis of the anatomy of QNX: a proprietary, real-time operating system aimed at the embedded market used in many sensitive and critical systems, particularly within the automotive industry. We will present the first reverse-engineering and analysis of the exploit mitigations, secure random number generators and memory management internals of QNX versions...

In 2015, artist Ai Weiwei was bugged in his home, presumably by government actors. This situation raised our awareness on the lack of research in our community about operating and detecting spying microphones. Our biggest concern was that most of the knowledge came from fictional movies. Therefore, we performed a deep study on the state-of-the-art of microphone bugs, their characteristics, feature...
