Solar catalyst captures methane to create pure hydrogen and carbon
Methane has a greenhouse effect 80 times worse than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period, and emissions are skyrocketing even as we start reducing CO2. That makes UCF’s new hydrocarbon-capturing, sunlight-powered catalyst a very compelling idea.Continu… Continue reading Solar catalyst captures methane to create pure hydrogen and carbon

Quick Malware Triage With Inotify Tools, (Mon, Aug 21st)
When you handle a lot of malicious files, you must have a process and tools in place to speedup the analysis. It&#;x26;#;39;s impossible to investigate all files and a key point is to find interesting files that deserve more attention. In my malware analysis lab, I use a repository called my “Malware Zoo” where I put all the files. This repository is shared across different hosts (my computer, REMnux and Windows virtual machines). This helps me to keep all the “dangerous files” in a central location and avoid spreading dangerous stuff everywhere. When you analyze a malware, you&#;x26;#;39;ll quickly generate more files: You extract shellcodes, configurations, DLLs, more executables and those files should also be analyzed. To perform a quick triage with basic operations, I rely on the Inotify[1] suite.
