00:36.590 --> 00:40.630
Most locks are not engineered to supremely high tolerances.

00:40.630 --> 00:44.970
Most locks look, and this is exaggerated, something like this.

00:45.330 --> 00:51.330
Imperfections in the machining process leave those pinstack cylinders out of alignment.

00:51.690 --> 01:01.150
And any slight deviation in that alignment means that when you torque the plug there's really only one pinstack binding at any given time.

01:01.370 --> 01:05.270
This is what makes picking possible at its most basic level.

01:05.270 --> 01:11.530
Because if you apply a little bit of pressure on that plug you can do what's called setting a pin.

01:12.790 --> 01:21.610
See we're going to torque this and if you reach in there and start pushing on a pinstack, eventually you'll reach the right height and the pin will clear.

01:21.610 --> 01:24.090
The shear line is met and it'll spin.

01:24.470 --> 01:37.010
Now granted there's not a single pinstack in a lock, there's a row of them, but because you notice when it clears this is holding up the driver that driver is now out of the equation.

01:37.010 --> 01:39.430
That driver pin will not slip back down.

01:39.570 --> 01:45.770
You can keep pressure on this plug and go through the stacks one at a time, setting them and opening the lock.

01:45.770 --> 01:47.390
It looks a little like this.

01:48.190 --> 01:52.190
A tool called a torque wrench is put in and a little bit of pressure is put on the cylinder.

01:52.730 --> 01:57.950
A pick tool, in this case we're just doing pin by pin picking, goes in you reach, you reach, oh here's one that's binding.

01:57.950 --> 01:59.510
When we set it, it clicks.

02:00.230 --> 02:02.390
Keep reaching, keep reaching, and oh there's another one.

02:02.390 --> 02:03.350
I feel it binding.

02:03.350 --> 02:09.290
That plug will click a little more and a little more and eventually you can have them all one at a time open .

02:09.630 --> 02:11.790
This is not not complex.

02:11.790 --> 02:21.850
It's not in the same order every time because those imperfections, remember they're not planned , so which pinstack is binding in which order always varies, but the principle is the same.

02:22.770 --> 02:27.710
And everyone give me some some goodwill and let's kick it off the right way.

02:27.750 --> 02:32.830
Hopefully not have a demonstration effect hit us and let's see what we can do with this lock in front of us here.

02:32.930 --> 02:38.170
Is that in pretty good focus with my craptacular webcam setup?

02:43.590 --> 02:45.730
What I'm using is called a jackknife set.

02:45.730 --> 02:47.930
It's a nice little compact job.

02:47.930 --> 02:50.410
I think the Irvine guys have these here this year.

02:50.950 --> 02:52.470
Anybody checked out the vendor areas?

02:52.470 --> 02:55.030
Irvine Underground has their spread of tools out there.

02:55.410 --> 02:56.770
Yeah, good guys.

02:57.550 --> 03:00.990
So this is, this is your basic cheap master lock.

03:01.150 --> 03:08.690
You'll find I beat up on master a lot in this talk, not because they make the worst locks out there, but, you know, they're definitely in the business of it.

03:10.850 --> 03:16.090
But honestly, I mean, we'll cover later a lot of what, you know, Mark was saying and how many people were at the last talk?

03:16.090 --> 03:17.450
The ethics of full disclosure.

03:17.670 --> 03:24.030
So you realize a lot, you know, can you really blame companies for making crappy locks if the consumers continually buy them?

03:24.030 --> 03:27.730
And can you blame the consumers really for buying crappy locks if they don't know they're crappy?

03:28.550 --> 03:35.590
Exactly who's to blame is, is really kind of up in the air, but one thing is for sure, these aren't really the most skillful locks ever.

03:38.670 --> 03:40.250
Yeah, so the lock is open now.

03:45.320 --> 03:46.100
Thank you.

03:48.020 --> 03:49.520
That, that's as simple as it is.

03:49.520 --> 03:52.040
Literally, you just reach in a little bit.

03:52.040 --> 03:54.240
This is that, this is that torque wrench I was showing you here.

03:54.240 --> 03:55.060
Are we still in frame?

03:55.060 --> 03:55.740
There we go.

03:56.040 --> 03:58.720
This is, this torque wrench just slips right down in the keyway.

03:59.280 --> 04:02.980
A little bit of torque and pushing those pins up.

04:02.980 --> 04:05.700
We're going to do a hands-on session when all this is done, by the way.

04:05.700 --> 04:08.080
I invite people to come and actually try this.

04:08.080 --> 04:09.580
You'll, you'll be amazed how easy it is.

04:09.580 --> 04:10.220
Question?

04:13.100 --> 04:16.540
Yeah, so everyone has their own technique that they like.

04:16.540 --> 04:20.360
In fact, you'll see some people like to put the torque wrench up in the top of the keyway.

04:20.620 --> 04:21.680
Mouse, you like that.

04:21.680 --> 04:23.340
Some people seat it down low.

04:23.700 --> 04:35.880
I tend to just hold it right in my hand, just let the, the torque wrench give pressure this way, because as I mentioned, the two biggest mistakes people make when they're first practicing this, when they first want to get into it, is too much effort.

04:35.960 --> 04:41.380
Some people put too much pressure on the wrench, which just means the pins are going to jam so hard you can't push them.

04:41.640 --> 04:50.520
And some people push the pins so far up that the driver clears and then the key pin goes up into the shear line and get, you fault, you set it way too high.

04:50.520 --> 04:53.360
The only way is to release pressure, let them all drop and try again.

04:53.440 --> 04:58.940
Like, the way I try to describe it to people, imagine you, well, could be applicable here.

04:58.940 --> 05:05.880
You just woke up, you're still hung over, you just smoked a fat cannon, and you're like 10 times more mellow than that.

05:05.880 --> 05:11.160
Like, dial it down a lot if you try to pick locks and it's not working for you when we're doing the hands-on thing.

05:11.200 --> 05:14.080
Chances are it's the lightest amount of pressure you could ever need.

05:15.520 --> 05:17.360
And that's really, there's, there's not a whole lot to it.

05:17.360 --> 05:18.500
That's the basics.

05:18.540 --> 05:21.960
So, how do we, how do we make locks better?

05:22.120 --> 05:26.360
How, how is a lock, you know, everyone's going to say, well, crap, I have locks like this, am I at risk?

05:26.360 --> 05:27.500
No, you're not really at risk.

05:27.500 --> 05:29.120
There are better locks out there.

05:29.320 --> 05:37.340
No one talks about this stuff, so no one buys them, but there's a whole lot of high-end features that locks can encompass, and I will cover them now.

05:37.920 --> 05:39.860
There's things called secure pins.

05:39.900 --> 05:43.460
There's a lot of other advanced features that specialty locks have in them.

05:43.460 --> 05:45.620
First, let's talk about secure pins a little bit.

05:46.300 --> 05:51.120
This is our same design, the same pin stack , but you notice the driver is a different shape.

05:51.300 --> 06:00.060
This is called a mushroom top pin or a mushroom driver, and you can, you can really just picture it, how pretty easily, if you were to try to torque this, that's going to bind up on the lip.

06:00.060 --> 06:01.040
It's going to get in your way.

06:01.040 --> 06:03.480
It's going to be just a real disaster to try to pick that.

06:03.480 --> 06:04.600
It's, it's a real headache.

06:05.440 --> 06:08.580
Another type of specialty pin is what's called a spool pin.

06:08.580 --> 06:11.460
They can have a notch that's big or small cut into it.

06:11.580 --> 06:16.680
Spool pins are even trickier, because you get the sensation of clicking and set it.

06:16.680 --> 06:17.860
You're like, oh, I felt it move.

06:17.860 --> 06:19.260
I must have set something.

06:19.260 --> 06:20.400
No, you really didn't.

06:20.540 --> 06:24.280
If you ever have a lock that you keep trying and trying and trying it, you're like, what the hell is wrong with this?

06:24.280 --> 06:25.940
You may have a spool pin in there.

06:26.780 --> 06:31.880
If you want to defeat high security pins and the other kind of, there's another called serrated pins.

06:31.880 --> 06:34.940
They just jam on everything, and they're just kind of a bitch.

06:36.560 --> 06:37.320
Yeah.

06:38.120 --> 06:43.040
If you want to defeat any type of, you know, if you want to pick, usually you'll use a tension wrench that looks like this.

06:43.040 --> 06:44.680
They're usually called feather wrenches.

06:44.920 --> 06:49.780
It's the very, very light amount of torque, the lightest amount you could ever imagine.

06:51.280 --> 06:52.520
Hey, what's going on, priest?

06:53.960 --> 06:54.860
No problem.

06:54.860 --> 06:55.420
Bring him on in.

06:55.420 --> 06:56.340
We're having a good time.

07:03.490 --> 07:08.410
Hey, with this being such a long talk, are you going to do a spot the Fed maybe in the middle of it, if we want to break it up some?

07:11.410 --> 07:17.910
So yeah, if you use a very, very light touch on the wrench, you can actually force the pin stack.

07:25.020 --> 07:26.380
Yeah, there's some seats up here.

07:26.480 --> 07:28.580
Raise your hand if there's some extra seats near you.

07:29.020 --> 07:30.920
We got, yeah, there we go.

08:02.110 --> 08:03.410
Still more over here.

08:04.070 --> 08:04.790
All the way down.

08:04.790 --> 08:06.150
You don't have to stand on the wall.

08:19.410 --> 08:22.250
Come on, everyone else got up friggin' early, and they're in their seats.

08:22.250 --> 08:23.330
You're holding up the show.

08:26.010 --> 08:27.190
Yeah, give him a chance .

08:28.670 --> 08:29.810
All right.

08:48.750 --> 08:50.090
We'll get it eventually.

08:51.570 --> 08:53.570
Just calm, small words.

09:10.710 --> 09:13.090
This is priest, everybody, for anyone who has not met.

09:13.090 --> 09:15.210
How many, how many people is this your first DEF CON?

09:16.490 --> 09:17.790
Welcome, absolutely welcome.

09:17.790 --> 09:20.290
He is kind of the epitome of the goon squad.

09:20.290 --> 09:25.630
They're really, they work hard, they make sure everything flows right, and we always appreciate all they do for us.

09:25.630 --> 09:28.030
So just, if they ask you to do something, just do it.

09:33.160 --> 09:40.640
Anyone who's had the pleasure of comparing dealings with the goons as opposed to dealings with AP security knows which end of the stick you want to be on.

09:43.870 --> 09:51.690
So, those were advanced pins, and we can defeat them, you know, defeat is kind of a rough word, but with that feather touch wrench.

09:51.710 --> 09:53.610
What about even more advanced features?

09:53.610 --> 09:57.570
Because really all this takes is a specialized tool and a little bit more patience.

09:57.610 --> 10:00.150
What if you want something even more secure than that?

10:00.150 --> 10:07.410
Well, some locks, even in the basic pin tumbler design, do incorporate additional security features, and we can cover them now.

10:10.430 --> 10:13.450
This is called a Schlage Everest lock.

10:13.590 --> 10:23.350
You can see that it has a normal complement of pins, just, you know, pin stacks like we've been looking at before, but up underneath the bottom of this plug, there's something called a check pin.

10:24.330 --> 10:31.770
By the way, this is, this will be for a couple of light, we have a lot of leftover bottle opener lighters from the BCCC event.

10:31.770 --> 10:34.190
This will be for a couple of lighters and a Red Bull.

10:34.190 --> 10:39.990
Who can tell me where at a previous DEF CON did a Schlage Everest lock appear?

10:42.150 --> 10:44.170
It was part of the obstacle course.

10:44.170 --> 10:45.230
I need more specific.

10:45.230 --> 10:47.010
It had a specific name.

10:47.670 --> 10:49.310
Two years back.

10:51.230 --> 10:52.190
Nobody?

10:52.230 --> 10:53.910
It was a big blue lock.

10:54.070 --> 10:54.550
Nobody remembers?

10:54.550 --> 10:57.030
Come on, I know you're, a drink and a lighter.

10:57.030 --> 10:57.950
Nobody remembers?

10:57.950 --> 10:58.610
What?

10:59.010 --> 11:00.030
The beer lock!

11:00.030 --> 11:02.370
Yes, it was the beer lock, which no one opened.

11:04.290 --> 11:05.510
Way to go.

11:07.090 --> 11:11.510
And it's a shame no one opened it because this is actually pretty easily beaten.

11:12.790 --> 11:16.150
As you can see, this is the plug up underneath.

11:16.210 --> 11:18.130
You can see this check pin sticking through here.

11:18.130 --> 11:26.370
Now that engages with part of the outer shell and this is not going to rotate unless the pins up top are set and this is pulled out of the way.

11:26.370 --> 11:27.910
You can see this little bar.

11:28.510 --> 11:34.150
Well, that little bar engages with a big groove slot on the side of the Everest key.

11:34.150 --> 11:36.890
You can see most keys do have grooves.

11:36.890 --> 11:40.010
They actually, they help seat the key in with what are called wards.

11:40.010 --> 11:42.950
Those protrusions are called wards that seat the keyway.

11:43.030 --> 11:50.550
This, however, the groove is deep because it actually picks up that pin and as the key travels down the keyway, it lifts it up and out of the way.

11:51.330 --> 12:07.230
Well, it didn't take people too long to realize that you can just make a tension wrench with a nice long finger and pick up the pin that way or you could take an Everest key, cut the hell out of it, stick it down the lock and use that as a tension wrench.

12:13.320 --> 12:16.720
By the way, we want to thank Matt Blaze for a lot of these beautiful photos you see.

12:16.720 --> 12:17.700
I referenced him later.

12:17.700 --> 12:21.360
He's a real groovy cat and he was very kind and let me use these.

12:21.920 --> 12:25.620
For a, let's see, we'll still work, we've got a lot of Red Bull.

12:25.620 --> 12:26.080
We're keeping working.

12:26.080 --> 12:32.260
For a Red Bull, can anyone tell me the name of the vendor who manufactures and sells these Everest picks?

12:33.580 --> 12:35.740
Don't please shout and no, it's not Southern.

12:35.740 --> 12:36.320
Let me see.

12:36.500 --> 12:37.920
You've won stuff.

12:37.920 --> 12:38.480
Wait.

12:38.520 --> 12:39.140
Yes.

12:39.860 --> 12:41.880
Yes, it is Peterson International.

12:42.900 --> 12:43.260
Very good.

12:43.260 --> 12:44.040
Applaud for the man.

12:44.040 --> 12:45.260
He knows cool shit.

12:52.950 --> 12:54.270
Yeah, this little Everest.

12:54.270 --> 12:54.810
Yeah.

12:54.970 --> 12:55.570
Yeah.

12:56.490 --> 12:58.030
Yeah, the question was, is that simple?

12:58.030 --> 13:00.790
Yeah, as far as I've seen, all the plugs have that.

13:02.590 --> 13:04.250
Yeah, these are the Peterson wrenches.

13:04.250 --> 13:06.890
They come in two different, you know, there's a left and a right one.

13:07.270 --> 13:08.710
And they're really excellent.

13:08.710 --> 13:09.410
They're very well made.

13:09.410 --> 13:11.410
Peterson, we talk about Peterson later in the talk.

13:11.410 --> 13:12.510
They're a very good supplier.

13:12.510 --> 13:13.350
They're good people.

13:14.970 --> 13:19.490
So, we're moving our way up from like ass-tacular security to almost good security.

13:19.490 --> 13:21.470
Let's talk about very nice security.

13:22.730 --> 13:25.130
This is called an Assa V10 Twin.

13:25.230 --> 13:27.690
This is a very popular lock in Europe.

13:27.690 --> 13:29.930
You don't see a lot of Assa locks in America.

13:29.930 --> 13:32.470
You actually don't see a lot of very good locks in America.

13:32.470 --> 13:33.990
There's maybe one brand.

13:34.270 --> 13:36.490
But Assa is a very good lock.

13:36.530 --> 13:39.990
And you can see it has a traditional pin stack with, as you know, it's secure.

13:39.990 --> 13:41.490
This is a spool pin up here.

13:41.490 --> 13:45.330
And the spool pin even has an extra lip that really binds up hard.

13:45.710 --> 13:51.070
But next to that, there's a tiny pin stack seated way down on the side.

13:51.370 --> 13:58.390
And you can tell that only if these pins are lifted to the right height, can what is called a sidebar fall inward.

13:58.590 --> 14:02.690
This sidebar, unlike remember the check pin was seated down here.

14:02.690 --> 14:03.910
The check pin was vulnerable.

14:03.910 --> 14:05.650
You could grab it from the keyway.

14:05.870 --> 14:10.210
The sidebar cannot be grabbed by anything you stick down the keyway.

14:10.710 --> 14:15.790
The only way the sidebar is going to move is if these tiny pins on the side, which are really hard.

14:15.790 --> 14:17.370
You can't really insert picks in there.

14:17.370 --> 14:18.830
It's a really tiny space.

14:18.910 --> 14:22.450
The only way the sidebar is going to fall inward is if that is raised up.

14:22.910 --> 14:25.630
Now, I don't know if you can see my faint text here.

14:25.630 --> 14:26.910
These are very secure.

14:26.910 --> 14:30.590
But the person, in fact, who first showed them to me, a guy named Barry Wells.

14:30.710 --> 14:32.050
How many people know Barry Wells?

14:32.050 --> 14:34.150
How many have ever heard him talk at Hope or anything?

14:34.350 --> 14:34.770
No?

14:34.770 --> 14:36.170
Oh man, you guys got it.

14:36.330 --> 14:38.590
He is... I'll show you his videos later.

14:38.590 --> 14:40.370
He's a real amazing cat.

14:41.070 --> 14:47.910
Barry, who was a big fan of this lock, was very disappointed when he found out there is what he calls a geographical weakness.

14:48.410 --> 14:51.750
You can see this lock right here with the cuts on a key.

14:51.750 --> 14:52.770
That's called the bidding.

14:53.010 --> 14:55.710
The bidding cuts are normal cuts right here.

14:55.710 --> 14:58.450
And you can see the sidebar cuts down here.

14:58.630 --> 14:59.730
What's up, X?

14:59.730 --> 15:01.550
Oh, more free stuff?

15:01.650 --> 15:02.730
Oh, yes.

15:02.810 --> 15:03.910
Agent X, everybody.

15:03.910 --> 15:06.250
He's running the show as well with the speakers.

15:06.250 --> 15:07.370
Big hand for him.

15:12.520 --> 15:20.020
In my hand, I have some individually numbered issues, hardcover, a Frac 63, final issue.

15:21.680 --> 15:22.820
They're so warm.

15:22.820 --> 15:26.380
They're still warm from the presses and from their total hot, the coolness.

15:26.600 --> 15:28.820
We're going to be schwagging them out tonight.

15:28.820 --> 15:31.660
He's going to be schwagging them out right now.

15:31.680 --> 15:35.580
Will this be for questions or just for fanfare and pandemonium?

15:36.000 --> 15:38.120
I don't want arms ripped off.

15:38.720 --> 15:43.240
We're all gentle human beings here, I'm sure.

15:43.240 --> 15:44.700
Not savages.

15:45.380 --> 15:47.000
Except for that guy.

15:50.900 --> 15:53.340
And they're individually numbered.

15:53.700 --> 15:58.000
They're giving away issue number 13 in the Apollo talk.

15:58.700 --> 16:00.260
That's cool.

16:16.120 --> 16:19.540
Limited edition, people.

16:20.840 --> 16:24.100
And here I thought I was just going to give away little cheap Red Bull and lighters.

16:29.430 --> 16:36.430
Okay, just so we're clear and there's no conflicting orders, do not stand in front of the doors.

16:37.590 --> 16:38.490
Yes, sir.

16:39.450 --> 16:41.290
I'm looking right at you with the backpack.

16:43.130 --> 16:46.430
Can we get a hand raise again real fast if there's any more seats?

16:46.430 --> 16:47.250
Do they all go?

16:47.250 --> 16:48.710
There's a few more seats, people.

16:48.850 --> 16:55.090
I know it's nice being able to have that room to spread out, but come on, really, raise your hand if you got room.

16:55.090 --> 16:56.490
I need the people back there by the door.

16:56.490 --> 16:57.650
You three in black.

16:58.650 --> 17:00.010
I need two people in the aisle.

17:02.750 --> 17:03.870
Hang on, we're getting there.

17:04.450 --> 17:07.070
And yes, I know everybody's in black, but I just pointed to you.

17:08.330 --> 17:09.970
We got one seat here.

17:10.590 --> 17:12.650
Fine looking gentlemen, ladies, come on.

17:12.910 --> 17:13.530
You know what?

17:13.530 --> 17:14.630
I'm going to bring you down.

17:22.500 --> 17:24.300
You, sir, in the yellow shirts, come up.

17:27.720 --> 17:28.340
Okay.

17:28.740 --> 17:29.920
I need to be able to see the doors.

17:29.920 --> 17:30.940
I can't see the doors.

17:32.040 --> 17:32.800
Thank you.

17:33.480 --> 17:35.840
No, this guy's not feeling any love right here.

17:35.920 --> 17:39.540
This is prime seating, especially if I start throwing stuff.

17:41.640 --> 17:43.200
Okay, we've got one more seat.

17:43.980 --> 17:45.340
Yeah, send him up, Jay.

17:46.820 --> 17:47.780
All right.

17:48.840 --> 17:51.220
Just please keep your feet tucked in.

17:51.240 --> 17:53.340
Please keep... I got one more seat.

17:53.660 --> 17:55.700
Send me somebody from this side of the room over here.

17:56.440 --> 17:58.860
Somebody raise you up in the white shirt there.

17:59.300 --> 17:59.880
Yes, you.

17:59.880 --> 18:00.580
Come on down.

18:01.940 --> 18:04.060
You're the next contestant on Get a Better View.

18:04.060 --> 18:05.820
Sir, in the yellow, right there.

18:07.800 --> 18:09.360
Is there one more, sir?

18:09.380 --> 18:10.140
Is this guy?

18:10.140 --> 18:11.500
He still needs a spot, right?

18:11.500 --> 18:12.380
You want to move right in there?

18:13.260 --> 18:13.900
Yeah, you do.

18:15.020 --> 18:16.640
We got... is that seat?

18:16.640 --> 18:17.460
Right here, guy.

18:18.720 --> 18:19.460
All right.

18:20.220 --> 18:21.460
Is there any more seats?

18:21.460 --> 18:22.120
Because I overbooked.

18:22.120 --> 18:23.200
Yes, sir, right over there.

18:24.220 --> 18:27.340
Okay, please keep the aisles clear.

18:27.920 --> 18:29.980
I've got to be able to see the doors from the stage.

18:30.520 --> 18:33.720
That means if I see you standing in front of the door from the stage, you're in front of the door.

18:34.120 --> 18:39.140
Okay, the only reason we're doing that is if a fire marshal walks in, we have the illusion of we didn't overbook too badly.

18:40.420 --> 18:43.760
We're trying to get as many people in as we can for the popular talks.

18:44.060 --> 18:46.020
Okay, we're working on something for next year.

18:46.020 --> 18:47.780
We didn't have a chance to implement it this year.

18:48.320 --> 18:54.760
Hopefully we will have it up and running by next year, where we'll have some type of signup system where you can sign up for the talks that you want to see.

18:55.120 --> 18:57.520
We'll have you... with the signup, we'll have you line up in one line.

18:57.920 --> 19:00.760
People who want to see it but didn't get to sign up will line up in another line.

19:01.100 --> 19:02.460
So it'll be first come, first served.

19:02.460 --> 19:07.020
There won't be this rush to the other line, you know, 30 minutes after you're into the first talk.

19:07.020 --> 19:08.480
So you get to the other talk you want to see.

19:09.320 --> 19:12.060
But for now, what we're going to do is we're trying to get as many people in as we can.

19:12.120 --> 19:15.580
We have actually quadrupled the seating for last year.

19:16.380 --> 19:28.280
Okay, you'll notice that what we found was the fire marshal was working from a four-year-old occupancy limit, and we got that updated.

19:28.280 --> 19:29.240
That's why there's more people.

19:29.240 --> 19:33.320
You'll notice that you guys were in a huge line all the way back around the side of the hotel.

19:33.320 --> 19:34.280
I'm not that good.

19:34.280 --> 19:37.620
You'll notice that all of you got in, plus everybody was queued up over here.

19:38.540 --> 19:40.920
So we got everybody in as we could.

19:41.240 --> 19:43.740
We apologize for putting you on the floor like this, sir.

19:43.740 --> 19:45.400
Did he smell bad or something, sir?

19:46.440 --> 19:47.160
Okay.

19:49.140 --> 19:50.320
A little lover's quarrel.

19:52.200 --> 19:53.560
We got everybody in as we could.

19:53.560 --> 19:54.980
We're sorry you had to sit on the floor.

19:55.060 --> 19:55.760
We're doing our best.

19:55.760 --> 19:56.600
Please work with us.

19:56.600 --> 19:59.660
We appreciate your patience, and we'll keep doing what we can do.

20:00.200 --> 20:01.200
Thanks, guys.

20:07.160 --> 20:18.380
After this talk, if you buy a pair of lock picks, and the police pull you over, and they find the lock picks, do not say, I'm a hacker, and I break into my client's buildings.

20:18.740 --> 20:20.640
We actually had someone do that.

20:21.340 --> 20:25.520
Welcome to, you're now in jail for having thieving tools.

20:25.520 --> 20:29.000
The correct answer is, I'm going to locksmithing school.

20:29.560 --> 20:32.140
These are classes for my tools, or I am an apprentice.

20:32.640 --> 20:33.520
We'll cover that.

20:33.520 --> 20:35.020
There's a whole legal section we'll cover.

20:35.020 --> 20:36.900
I'm a hacker , and I break into my client's buildings.

20:38.160 --> 20:40.940
That's breaking, entering, and having thieving tools.

20:40.940 --> 20:43.340
So, a little subtlety there.

21:05.140 --> 21:06.940
Work that angle, I'm serious.

21:08.680 --> 21:13.040
Alright, so we were going to talk about the potential weakness in the V-Twin, right?

21:14.540 --> 21:15.500
What's that?

21:17.220 --> 21:18.380
Geographical weakness, yes.

21:18.380 --> 21:26.280
And the reason we call it that is because these sort of bidding cuts can be... if you've had a key made, you can see the machine's not sophisticated.

21:26.280 --> 21:29.120
It's just a grinder that just grinds off the key, does the bidding.

21:29.760 --> 21:36.820
This bidding cut down here, however, for the sidebar, is not easily accessible by a traditional grinder machine.

21:36.820 --> 21:39.020
It has to be made on a special milling machine.

21:39.020 --> 21:42.300
These blanks are special ordered, which actually increases the security.

21:42.300 --> 21:46.140
You can't just, no fool off the street can just get a key blank and cut it.

21:46.160 --> 21:52.740
But, it's a nightmare for logistics and distribution of locks to locksmith vendors.

21:52.740 --> 22:07.700
So, Barry and the people at a German sport group found out that all over Germany and other places, they're just divided into territories, and locks are sold with a certain sidebar bidding in that territory, so that all the key blanks for that territory are there.

22:08.240 --> 22:14.060
So, it's not a big weakness, but it's just kind of the cost of doing business, the way the distribution works.

22:14.120 --> 22:20.700
They don't just deal over the internet, like a guy at a local shop can't have 80 bajillion of these blanks if a customer comes in.

22:20.700 --> 22:22.340
So , it's something to keep in mind.

22:22.540 --> 22:24.700
And that comes into play with what we do bump keying later.

22:24.700 --> 22:25.740
I see a couple of hands.

22:27.140 --> 22:29.260
I do not know how many territories there are.

22:30.040 --> 22:33.180
Yeah, SSDevs, we'll talk about them later.

22:33.180 --> 22:34.240
They talk about it.

22:34.240 --> 22:34.740
Yes.

22:37.840 --> 22:40.740
I would imagine someone could be mapping that out potentially.

22:40.740 --> 22:44.280
I don't know if you can look at just the bidding and know where it came from.

22:44.920 --> 22:48.520
He was asking if you just look at that sidebar bidding, can you tell the territory?

22:48.520 --> 22:53.220
Obviously, there's got to be a master list somewhere that coordinates distribution, but I don't know of it.

22:53.220 --> 22:54.460
There was one more hand.

23:01.460 --> 23:03.540
That's a tremendous question.

23:03.560 --> 23:13.380
If simple changes to the driver pins, if the addition of a ridge or a lip or serrations, if they make it so much harder to pick, why don't all locks come with this?

23:13.380 --> 23:19.900
And the reason for that is Americans especially, but in general, people are cheap everywhere.

23:19.900 --> 23:27.200
You've got a figure that costs X number of cents to introduce that feature into a lock, multiplied by how many you distribute in a year.

23:27.200 --> 23:30.940
Someone in a boardroom looked at a spreadsheet and said, no, we don't freaking care.

23:30.940 --> 23:32.320
Let's just make them this way.

23:32.440 --> 23:33.540
That's the answer to that.

23:36.040 --> 23:37.480
Oh yeah, that's a very good point.

23:37.480 --> 23:40.280
You can retrofit, you can repin your locks.

23:40.440 --> 23:42.420
You can buy pin kits.

23:42.860 --> 23:46.320
Because the driver, the height of the driver, the size doesn't matter.

23:46.320 --> 23:49.880
It's only these bottom pins that have to be the right size to work with your key bidding.

23:49.880 --> 23:51.800
You can retrofit your drivers, definitely.

23:51.860 --> 23:56.660
And in the hands-on session, Mouse, if you have the ones that are pulled apart, we can show people how you do that.

23:58.340 --> 24:02.220
So, moving onward, that is a very nice... I don't want to knock the V10, though.

24:02.220 --> 24:05.440
For that one weakness, it's still a stupendous lock.

24:06.000 --> 24:08.600
This, however, is probably my favorite lock.

24:08.600 --> 24:12.420
And interestingly enough, it is an American company that makes this lock.

24:12.420 --> 24:14.540
How many people have heard of Medeco locks?

24:15.040 --> 24:16.420
Now, there's some hands.

24:16.420 --> 24:20.020
Medeco is one of the finest locks I can think of out there.

24:20.020 --> 24:21.280
I don't work for them.

24:21.280 --> 24:23.060
I'm, you know, not dating anyone there.

24:23.060 --> 24:24.180
They're just really good.

24:24.180 --> 24:25.740
They're really good designs.

24:26.600 --> 24:34.460
Medeco keys, besides being insanely restricted and hard to get your hands on, have what's called cross-cutting.

24:35.140 --> 24:40.240
And if you can kind of see these pins, you can notice they're chiseled on the tips.

24:40.280 --> 24:42.560
They're also serrated, by the way, these key pins.

24:42.560 --> 24:51.280
These key pins and these chisel tips actually fit into, you can kind of see here, these cross-cut notches.

24:51.380 --> 24:55.960
These pins spin as they track up and down as the key goes into the lock.

24:55.960 --> 24:57.800
It's called axial rotation.

24:58.060 --> 25:07.560
Only if these pins have spun correctly, lined up a notch on the side, will a sidebar fall inward, and then will the lock open.

25:07.560 --> 25:09.880
These locks are psycho.

25:10.680 --> 25:14.460
You can't, there's no easy bypass for this.

25:14.460 --> 25:20.380
And in fact, the gentleman we've mentioned, Barry Wells, I think is the only man alive who I know who can pick these.

25:20.400 --> 25:22.840
I've seen him do it, and I shit myself.

25:23.160 --> 25:28.900
I mean, you know, he reaches, he actually uses that finger pick, and he spins the pin by hand.

25:28.900 --> 25:32.220
And you can even see, this has a fake cut here.

25:32.220 --> 25:36.400
So you can feel like you've spun it and you've caught on something, but it's a fake cut, a deep cut.

25:36.400 --> 25:38.140
It's a really hard lock.

25:38.140 --> 25:41.820
And for someone like Barry to do it, I've seen him like eight minutes, ten minutes.

25:41.960 --> 25:48.300
A regular person, just any guy with any hope of picking this would take like an hour and a half, two hours.

25:48.320 --> 25:57.580
If you have a security situation where someone can kneel down in front of a door on your property and fiddle with something for two hours, you've got a whole different set of problems.

25:59.340 --> 26:01.080
If they're not getting noticed.

26:01.820 --> 26:05.300
So those are some examples of very high security features in locks.

26:05.300 --> 26:06.480
These are out there.

26:06.540 --> 26:08.660
They're not outrageously expensive.

26:08.720 --> 26:11.940
If you, you know, factor in the costs involved, you know, what are many costs?

26:11.940 --> 26:13.140
Like $100, $150?

26:13.380 --> 26:15.740
The V-Twin I think you can get for about $80.

26:16.440 --> 26:20.220
The cost offset is not a big difference considering what you're getting out of it.

26:20.220 --> 26:21.200
I see a hand.

26:26.620 --> 26:27.340
Yes.

26:27.400 --> 26:27.960
Yes, it is.

26:27.960 --> 26:31.920
The question was, can you replace just the cylinder, just the core of the lock?

26:32.040 --> 26:32.980
Yes, you can.

26:32.980 --> 26:35.100
You can usually mortise cylinders, screw out.

26:35.100 --> 26:36.440
You can swap out cylinders.

26:36.440 --> 26:38.760
In fact, a lot of really high-end...

26:38.760 --> 26:42.500
How many people here are in the service or affiliated with the service of any kind?

26:42.500 --> 26:43.660
Military service?

26:44.340 --> 26:45.460
Man, just a handful.

26:45.460 --> 26:46.180
Geez.

26:46.500 --> 26:52.780
A lot of military locks are standard designs, like military handcuffs, military padlocks.

26:52.780 --> 26:57.160
They're standard industry locks that have been swapped out with a Medeco biaxial core.

26:57.340 --> 26:58.420
And like you'll see...

26:58.420 --> 27:01.720
Yeah, so you can retrofit locks to varying degrees.

27:05.440 --> 27:07.900
Yeah, the Best Locks, the brand Best.

27:07.900 --> 27:08.900
I cover them in a bit.

27:08.900 --> 27:10.880
They have a very, very nice system.

27:10.940 --> 27:12.880
Especially it's one that's very nice to manage.

27:12.960 --> 27:16.080
We're jumping ahead though, but because you're on top of things, you get a free letter.

27:18.980 --> 27:19.940
Good catch!

27:22.400 --> 27:23.900
Very good point to bring up.

27:23.900 --> 27:24.840
We're going to cover Best Lock.

27:24.840 --> 27:27.520
We're going to cover a lot of stuff, so we've got to keep it moving along.

27:29.220 --> 27:31.240
Oh no, that was a very good point someone mentioned.

27:31.240 --> 27:34.460
Okay, you're not going to make this on a grinding machine or at your local hardware store.

27:34.460 --> 27:36.140
You can't make these cross cuts.

27:36.160 --> 27:38.080
Very, very restricted blanks.

27:39.060 --> 27:42.680
So that was a peek at very good security.

27:42.900 --> 27:46.880
Let's flip it back the other direction now and go back to bad security for a minute.

27:50.060 --> 27:50.760
Yes?

27:57.230 --> 27:59.510
The little light shines in the holes?

28:01.330 --> 28:02.870
I don't know what you mean.

28:04.830 --> 28:08.110
Show me later, give me an idea later and we'll talk about it.

28:19.440 --> 28:24.300
The question was, if you keep picking and playing with a lock, will it eventually wear the lock down?

28:24.300 --> 28:28.120
Yes, there's a lot of potential wear and tear that a lock can experience.

28:28.640 --> 28:32.100
The springs that push the pins, those can get weaker.

28:32.560 --> 28:35.460
A lot of pins are brass because they don't corrode.

28:35.460 --> 28:37.120
Brass is easily misshapen.

28:37.120 --> 28:39.200
In fact, I talk about that later.

28:39.200 --> 28:40.840
There's some techniques that are really bad for locks.

28:40.840 --> 28:43.220
You can beat the locks up and make them easier to pick that way.

28:43.700 --> 28:44.640
Question again?

28:50.370 --> 28:52.010
Those are called dimple locks.

28:52.010 --> 28:53.210
We're going to cover that in a minute.

28:54.810 --> 28:57.590
I've got to stop rewarding people for jumping ahead of me.

28:58.710 --> 29:00.070
But no more jumping ahead.

29:00.070 --> 29:02.010
Hold on, we're going to get to all the fun stuff.

29:03.430 --> 29:05.810
First, let's talk about really crappy things.

29:05.810 --> 29:07.050
Hang on, wait, wait, wait.

29:07.050 --> 29:08.350
I'm trying to go forward, people.

29:08.350 --> 29:09.850
I expected questions at the end.

29:09.850 --> 29:13.250
This is my second time ever speaking, so you've got to bear with me.

29:14.210 --> 29:15.310
Thank you.

29:18.250 --> 29:21.050
We're talking about very bad locks at the moment.

29:22.990 --> 29:25.750
Can I get a show of hands how many people have used this lock?

29:27.870 --> 29:29.250
That's about right.

29:31.790 --> 29:33.650
These locks are incredibly popular.

29:33.650 --> 29:35.410
These locks are everywhere in our life.

29:35.410 --> 29:38.470
Everyone and their dog has a master lock securing something.

29:39.850 --> 29:41.990
These locks do not provide anything.

29:44.170 --> 29:50.990
If you have something that you care about that you're securing with a master padlock, you know, you're pretty much doing this.

29:59.220 --> 30:00.820
Why, you say?

30:01.820 --> 30:09.340
Well, you can take a master padlock, much like this little number, and use a guy like this.

30:09.440 --> 30:10.880
Does anybody know what this is?

30:11.300 --> 30:13.220
This is a padlock shim.

30:13.700 --> 30:21.860
A padlock shim can be inserted into a lock, or it can be broken in the lock, because this shim has been beat to hell.

30:23.880 --> 30:25.780
And that'll open that lock.

30:29.780 --> 30:30.740
Question?

30:32.120 --> 30:33.240
Yes, it will.

30:33.240 --> 30:35.640
I'll cover which can and can't be shimmed.

30:36.880 --> 30:42.000
Shims are a very, very elegant sort of attack against a lock.

30:42.000 --> 30:45.100
I mean, they really, I would say, fall into the category of a bypass.

30:45.360 --> 30:55.340
Just because the simplicity of the design, and the fact that Americans, especially Americans, but everyone in general, likes convenience as opposed to utility, makes this possible.

30:55.700 --> 30:57.700
Let's look a little bit more at this master.

30:58.100 --> 31:01.600
You can see it has a, all padlocks, like, you know, it has a shackle.

31:01.680 --> 31:03.200
It has a little dog notch.

31:03.480 --> 31:09.820
And that interfaces with, let's see if we can see down here, you know, a locking bar that's in there.

31:10.020 --> 31:16.040
And only if the combination is dialed in, will that bar retract, allowing you to pull the lock open.

31:16.900 --> 31:21.380
Well, what if you're not opening the lock, but rather you're closing the lock?

31:21.420 --> 31:23.040
You don't have to dial a combination.

31:23.040 --> 31:24.680
You don't have to fiddle with a key or anything.

31:24.680 --> 31:26.360
You just, you know, slap it shut.

31:26.900 --> 31:30.300
Well, that's because that bar is spring-loaded.

31:30.540 --> 31:32.520
The bar is just going to get out of the way.

31:32.520 --> 31:35.440
It's like, oh, the shackle's coming down, I better move.

31:36.600 --> 31:40.460
The way, and I'm going to try to get, I don't make films, so bear with me.

31:40.460 --> 31:53.240
The way a shim works, a shim is inserted outside the shackle, slid down in, and then turned, effectively obscuring that dog notch.

31:53.260 --> 31:54.260
You see that?

31:54.540 --> 31:56.520
It just, I'm trying to get that in line.

31:56.520 --> 32:00.260
It just pushes the bar right out of the way.

32:00.260 --> 32:02.180
It's like credit carding a door.

32:02.740 --> 32:06.140
I have a lot of friends back home who are in theater.

32:06.140 --> 32:08.620
There are theater techs and stage designers and stuff.

32:08.620 --> 32:13.620
And there's kind of an axiom with anybody who does craft work on stage and design sets.

32:13.800 --> 32:16.860
If you're doing it with springs, you're doing it wrong.

32:17.480 --> 32:19.660
This is an example of that phenomenon.

32:19.960 --> 32:25.060
Many things in locks that involve spring action are easily, easily compromised.

32:25.060 --> 32:28.120
Because a spring is, by nature, not a, it's a dumb device.

32:28.120 --> 32:29.920
It doesn't know what's pushing on it.

32:29.920 --> 32:32.640
And you can usually just pop them right out of the way.

32:32.640 --> 32:34.260
So, padlock shims.

32:34.260 --> 32:35.940
The cheapest stuff in the world.

32:36.260 --> 32:37.960
You know, you can buy them in packs.

32:39.620 --> 32:40.620
What's that?

32:41.260 --> 32:44.320
Oh yeah, you can make, we're going to cover, that's going to be a question.

32:44.580 --> 32:45.540
Yes, question.

32:50.690 --> 32:52.090
Yes, very good point.

32:52.090 --> 32:57.150
Metal bus fuses, there's a lot of material that you can make shims out of.

32:57.190 --> 33:01.230
Shims you can buy, you know, the 20 pack is $25.

33:01.430 --> 33:05.210
I'm going to have some of them if you want to play with them in the hands-on area.

33:05.270 --> 33:07.330
You can also make your own.

33:07.570 --> 33:09.150
And this will be a question.

33:09.150 --> 33:13.490
Let's see, this is kind of a hard question because it's very, very current events, if you will.

33:13.630 --> 33:16.870
The question for a Red Bull and one of these issues of Frack.

33:18.250 --> 33:27.290
What readily available material from Defcon did we use to open a jammed padlock at Civiac's house yesterday afternoon?

33:29.510 --> 33:32.370
It was not a badge from Blastier, but a good guess.

33:32.370 --> 33:33.110
Hang on, I saw...

33:33.110 --> 33:35.230
Wait, wait, whoa, no shout out.

33:35.230 --> 33:36.770
I saw your hand next.

33:38.070 --> 33:39.670
The man is correct.

33:39.670 --> 33:40.610
Come on up.

33:44.250 --> 33:47.630
The answer was metal from a beer can.

33:47.630 --> 33:48.990
And I have to definitely apologize.

33:48.990 --> 33:52.530
I'm sure there's got to be people flailing their arms on the sides and I might not be seeing you.

33:52.530 --> 33:53.710
I apologize for that.

33:53.710 --> 33:56.550
I'm going to try to keep you in my field of vision when I'm asking questions.

33:57.070 --> 33:59.890
Yeah, just the other day, Civiac had some friends staying with them.

33:59.890 --> 34:01.970
They're moving from San Diego.

34:01.970 --> 34:02.730
Then they stopped here.

34:02.730 --> 34:03.790
They're moving up to Seattle.

34:03.790 --> 34:06.050
It's polyhazard and I forget who else.

34:06.410 --> 34:08.910
But as we, I have definitely done this before.

34:08.910 --> 34:10.110
Many people have done this before.

34:10.110 --> 34:14.110
Some locks, the shackle completely pulls off.

34:14.110 --> 34:16.850
You know, the lock base can actually be completely removed.

34:17.170 --> 34:24.430
And if you accidentally slap it shut, upside down, the keyway is kind of inaccessible.

34:28.910 --> 34:29.750
It happens.

34:29.750 --> 34:30.830
It happens to the best of us.

34:30.830 --> 34:31.390
I've done it.

34:31.390 --> 34:34.470
In fact, I first experimented with this when I did it at home.

34:34.770 --> 34:36.970
We had the right tools in hand.

34:38.290 --> 34:43.330
And a simple beer can is all it took to shim this right off.

34:43.330 --> 34:44.790
We'll do this in the hands-on session.

34:44.790 --> 34:47.430
I've got plenty of beer can metal up here, man.

34:47.430 --> 34:50.050
We're going to make some, cut them up, and have a good time with that.

34:53.350 --> 34:56.850
It may or may not have been the beer that resulted in the lock being that way.

34:56.850 --> 34:57.890
I am uncertain.

35:00.620 --> 35:02.040
Very, very, very easy to do.

35:02.040 --> 35:03.980
In fact, you can ask them.

35:03.980 --> 35:09.440
We probably took, I guess, 30, 40 minutes in midday Vegas traffic to get to the house.

35:09.440 --> 35:12.340
It probably took 30 or 40 seconds to get this lock off.

35:15.240 --> 35:17.940
There are, however, unshimmable padlocks.

35:19.180 --> 35:24.380
There are very, very good padlocks on the market that shims will do absolutely nothing to.

35:24.760 --> 35:28.280
Some padlocks have a nice big boot or collar on the top.

35:28.280 --> 35:31.780
That makes the shim really hard to insert, damn near impossible.

35:32.060 --> 35:43.640
Incidentally, for, let's say, a red, this is kind of an easy one, for a Red Bull and a lighter, and I'm keeping the sides, keep the sides in view, what is the actual purpose of the collar or boot up on these?

35:44.100 --> 35:45.400
Whoa, that was a lot of hands.

35:45.400 --> 35:47.540
I think it was this way down there.

35:50.320 --> 35:52.920
Preventing bolt cutters is the exact right answer.

35:52.920 --> 35:54.520
Come on up, get a drink and a lighter.

35:58.220 --> 36:01.520
Other locks, you can actually, let me flip back to this.

36:02.640 --> 36:11.040
This is not the best solution, but if you were to just put notches in this bar, and literally, I mean, we're not talking about re-engineering the lock here.

36:11.040 --> 36:12.040
Oh, here's a lighter, man.

36:13.020 --> 36:14.920
Bottle opener lighters, gotta dig those.

36:15.660 --> 36:17.840
You know, we're not talking about a massive new design.

36:17.840 --> 36:23.040
If you were to just notch this bar, that would rip the crap out of the shim as you try to spin it around.

36:23.280 --> 36:27.200
And if you, you can actually kind of see in there, this bar is pretty beat up.

36:27.260 --> 36:32.460
I have some padlocks that I've shimmed so many times, they just shred the shims now because there's so many scrapings.

36:32.680 --> 36:36.380
So if people would just notch the bar, it would be kind of, kind of a solution.

36:36.380 --> 36:46.320
But really, the best type of padlock, and frankly, in my mind, the only type of padlock that can be considered useful at all, involves what's called double ball locking.

36:46.880 --> 36:51.420
Double ball locked padlocks, the shackle has, you know, a dog notch on each side.

36:51.900 --> 36:55.840
And inside, there is no bar with a spring or any other horseshit like that.

36:55.840 --> 36:58.540
There are two solid steel ball bearings.

36:58.700 --> 37:03.280
These are not going to go anywhere unless this control cylinder in the middle is rotated.

37:03.280 --> 37:06.500
You can see the control cylinder has a notch on each side.

37:06.540 --> 37:10.740
That cylinder rotates, the ball bearings drop in, that the lock will open.

37:10.740 --> 37:12.340
That is a real padlock.

37:12.340 --> 37:15.060
Anything else is, you know, a paperweight.

37:15.980 --> 37:19.420
Many locks employ, they're called key retaining locks, by the way.

37:19.420 --> 37:22.440
Locks that you have to have the key to open it and close it.

37:22.600 --> 37:26.560
Those are invariably going to be high-end double ball mechanisms that are in there.

37:26.560 --> 37:29.360
But any lock, it'll stay right on the front, double ball mechanism.

37:29.360 --> 37:30.320
Look for that.

37:30.320 --> 37:34.080
It is not at all a big investment to make that leap up.

37:34.080 --> 37:37.560
It's the difference of like a $5 lock or a $12 lock.

37:39.260 --> 37:40.560
Moving on.

37:41.380 --> 37:43.620
From good locks, we'll jump back again.

37:43.620 --> 37:46.340
We're kind of doing a high and low range of things.

37:47.120 --> 37:48.240
Warded locks.

37:48.700 --> 37:51.300
How many people have ever seen locks that look like this?

37:52.080 --> 37:54.640
Alright, yes, they are a lot of places.

38:05.080 --> 38:10.020
Warded locks are really very nice locks for certain reasons.

38:10.280 --> 38:12.360
They're very popular in outdoor situations.

38:12.360 --> 38:17.060
In fact, if you notice that trailer that I showed you in the other pictures, that was a warded lock.

38:17.060 --> 38:18.500
Why are they popular outdoors?

38:18.500 --> 38:20.480
Well, they're very resistant to fouling.

38:20.480 --> 38:23.200
They're very resistant to dirt and filth.

38:23.200 --> 38:25.860
They can rust up and they'll still usually work.

38:25.860 --> 38:29.760
They don't have an intricate pin tumbler mechanism inside.

38:29.760 --> 38:37.060
The fact that they have a very rudimentary mechanism means that you can put a lot of crap in this lock and it'll still sort of work.

38:37.700 --> 38:42.000
The other side of that coin is that it's a really rudimentary mechanism and it's a joke.

38:43.480 --> 38:46.160
Warded locks look kind of like this on the inside.

38:46.420 --> 38:49.120
You have a long keyway with wards.

38:49.120 --> 38:52.120
Those are protrusions called wards that get in the way.

38:52.120 --> 38:57.500
And at the very tip, you'll have just a notch bar with a spring.

38:57.500 --> 39:01.600
Those keys, if I jump back...

39:01.600 --> 39:04.520
Those keys... let me flip to...

39:04.520 --> 39:07.920
I used to have these numbered and the numbers have all but worn off.

39:11.780 --> 39:13.320
Got it on the first one.

39:15.600 --> 39:21.060
This key, when it goes down the keyway, the only thing... can you guys see that okay?

39:21.240 --> 39:28.120
The only thing that's actually operating this lock is this very, very tip of the key.

39:28.860 --> 39:35.900
That little tip of the key is interfacing with this lock mechanism, the latch that's hidden inside.

39:36.640 --> 39:38.160
However, what that means is...

39:38.860 --> 39:41.120
Let me pull some stuff out here.

39:51.660 --> 39:56.130
My pickset is all clouded.

39:56.330 --> 39:57.710
There we go.

39:58.990 --> 40:05.970
What that means is if you take a warded key lock and you file down... can everyone see that alright?

40:06.490 --> 40:09.130
You file down all the notches.

40:09.130 --> 40:11.550
This will still operate the lock.

40:11.550 --> 40:13.270
I think this was number one.

40:13.510 --> 40:14.750
No, it's number three.

40:16.570 --> 40:23.590
So this was... I took, you know, number one is probably this guy and I just filed all the wards off of it except for the tip.

40:25.670 --> 40:27.050
Let me get that in there.

40:27.050 --> 40:29.850
That still opens this lock.

40:29.850 --> 40:31.590
Because, you know, you only need the tip.

40:31.730 --> 40:36.110
The rest of the lock, the only thing it's doing is getting in the way.

40:36.110 --> 40:40.110
So that means you can take this to any warded lock.

40:42.630 --> 40:44.050
The tip will open.

40:45.490 --> 40:47.730
And they just, you know, there you go.

40:55.240 --> 40:56.520
Oh, I saw some hands.

40:56.520 --> 40:57.980
Wait, hang on, there's people with hands.

40:57.980 --> 40:58.520
Wait.

40:58.820 --> 40:59.480
Hands?

41:01.480 --> 41:06.000
Not so much with a regular pick, but there are what are called warded picks.

41:06.000 --> 41:07.000
And there was a hand back there.

41:07.000 --> 41:08.260
Was that the same question?

41:16.460 --> 41:17.740
I'm not familiar.

41:18.040 --> 41:19.860
They were even mentioned in the last talk.

41:19.860 --> 41:20.440
I've yet to see.

41:20.440 --> 41:22.040
If anyone has one of these, I'd love to see it.

41:22.040 --> 41:23.320
The TSA luggage lock.

41:23.320 --> 41:26.540
I don't deal with... you guys who fly, you're nuts if you check bags, man.

41:26.540 --> 41:27.520
I FedEx all my shit.

41:27.520 --> 41:29.100
I don't deal with those psychos.

41:30.380 --> 41:30.940
Hand?

41:37.030 --> 41:37.530
Okay.

41:40.880 --> 41:41.440
Okay.

41:41.500 --> 41:43.300
And you were going to ask a question as well, I'm sorry.

41:44.860 --> 41:46.660
Yeah, he makes a very valid point.

41:46.660 --> 41:48.680
A lot of these locks, they're really just decoration.

41:49.560 --> 41:50.820
Oh, we have a TSA lock?

41:50.820 --> 41:51.900
Thank you, sir.

41:51.960 --> 41:53.440
He gave that man a lighter for that.

41:55.000 --> 41:56.540
This is a... are you kidding me?

41:57.260 --> 41:58.820
This is a TSA lock?

42:05.520 --> 42:07.020
Oh, for... okay.

42:07.020 --> 42:09.980
So there's apparently varieties of TSA locks.

42:10.060 --> 42:11.820
But yeah, I hate the TSA.

42:11.820 --> 42:13.320
I won't give them any of my stuff.

42:14.640 --> 42:15.920
Alright, moving on.

42:15.920 --> 42:17.260
Oh wait, sorry, question.

42:23.960 --> 42:27.660
The question was locks that are called key retaining locks.

42:27.660 --> 42:30.740
The key is inside the padlock the whole time it's operating.

42:30.960 --> 42:32.220
That's what you're asking about?

42:32.460 --> 42:35.100
And you're saying is it a spring that keeps the key in?

42:39.830 --> 42:43.730
Oh, invariably key retaining locks tend to be much higher quality.

42:43.730 --> 42:44.990
They're going to have a double ball.

42:44.990 --> 42:46.490
So no, you can't shim those.

42:47.630 --> 42:49.230
So yeah, you can buy...

42:49.230 --> 42:50.870
Does anyone see Irvine's table?

42:50.870 --> 42:52.910
Do they have the warded picks there this time around?

42:53.070 --> 42:54.570
Yeah, Irvine usually has these sets.

42:54.570 --> 42:55.710
What are they, like nine bucks?

42:56.410 --> 42:58.070
I hope I didn't lowball that price.

42:58.070 --> 42:59.310
If they're more, they're worth it.

42:59.310 --> 43:00.950
But they should be about nine bucks.

43:02.050 --> 43:04.290
Yeah, or you can literally just buy...

43:04.290 --> 43:06.530
You know, these locks cost about seven dollars.

43:06.530 --> 43:09.130
So just buy one and carve the key down.

43:09.170 --> 43:09.970
Question.

43:15.620 --> 43:17.300
Oh, why are there different shapes?

43:17.560 --> 43:19.280
You can notice that...

43:19.280 --> 43:20.980
The question is about those shapes.

43:21.260 --> 43:24.940
The key tips aren't always the same size.

43:25.220 --> 43:28.980
Sometimes there's a very, very thin tip.

43:28.980 --> 43:32.520
Now, if you had a slightly thicker one, it might not stick all the way in.

43:32.640 --> 43:33.740
But if you have a very...

43:33.740 --> 43:34.440
You couldn't just...

43:34.440 --> 43:38.580
If I just took this key, carved it all the way down, the thin is a little weaker.

43:38.780 --> 43:40.900
So this set, it gives you kind of options.

43:40.980 --> 43:44.700
You can see how they all engage that lever on one level or another.

43:45.420 --> 43:49.500
Occasionally, you don't see them anymore, but you used to see a dual lever warded lock.

43:49.580 --> 43:50.880
In fact, I think I have one over here.

43:50.880 --> 43:53.140
I used to have one on the back of my truck for my trailer hitch.

43:53.600 --> 43:55.540
But, you know, you don't see...

43:55.540 --> 43:59.320
Any one of these could probably open just about any warded lock out there.

44:02.460 --> 44:03.700
Ah, barrel locks.

44:03.700 --> 44:04.340
New this year.

44:04.340 --> 44:06.500
Anyone who saw me at SHMOO, you didn't see this part.

44:26.830 --> 44:33.030
Barrel locks are very popular with utility companies, and they're popular in outdoor situations.

44:34.150 --> 44:34.950
I would almost...

44:34.950 --> 44:36.250
These are kind of the in-between.

44:36.250 --> 44:37.470
Are these really a lock?

44:37.470 --> 44:38.190
Are they not?

44:38.190 --> 44:39.030
I don't really know.

44:39.030 --> 44:45.190
I like to kind of use them as an example of something that works like a lock, but it shouldn't be thought of as a lock.

44:45.190 --> 44:50.070
I've seen these sometimes on perimeter fence, on way out on the edge of properties.

44:50.070 --> 44:51.570
Don't use them out there.

44:51.910 --> 44:54.130
Let the utility company work with these.

44:54.130 --> 44:56.070
They're really not truly locks.

44:56.510 --> 44:58.830
And here, we're going to play with some of them in a bit.

44:59.750 --> 45:02.070
The way barrel locks work...

45:03.150 --> 45:05.910
A barrel mechanism looks something like this.

45:05.990 --> 45:14.710
It's a double ball action inside with a plunger, and if this plunger retracts, obviously, the balls fall inward.

45:15.110 --> 45:25.430
But unlike very high quality padlocks where the double ball mechanism is engaged with a key and so forth, these really just rely on a very, very strong spring.

45:26.090 --> 45:29.050
If you just reach in there with a hook, pull that out.

45:29.050 --> 45:31.070
Let me see if I can do that for you.

45:32.190 --> 45:36.310
This is a homemade tool made out of a fishing snake.

45:36.310 --> 45:37.690
You can run wire through a wall.

45:37.990 --> 45:39.390
Very, very nice steel.

45:39.550 --> 45:42.410
If you temper it right, you can make a lot of good tools out of this.

45:44.010 --> 45:45.150
This is a barrel lock.

45:45.150 --> 45:48.890
You can see the outer casing and the little balls here.

45:49.570 --> 45:52.510
If I reach in...

45:52.510 --> 45:55.010
Sorry if I'm going out of frame for a second.

45:58.850 --> 45:59.790
There we go.

45:59.890 --> 46:00.970
That's locked.

46:02.810 --> 46:03.910
That's not the cool part.

46:03.910 --> 46:06.670
It's kind of cool, but, you know...

46:06.670 --> 46:07.810
Unlocking it.

46:07.810 --> 46:08.770
There, now you can applaud.

46:08.770 --> 46:09.570
The unlocking part.

46:09.570 --> 46:10.450
That's fun.

46:13.750 --> 46:17.730
This is the plunger that would ride all the way down inside there.

46:17.730 --> 46:20.050
I don't know if we can get that up to the camera.

46:20.690 --> 46:22.830
My camera is ass-tacular.

46:23.890 --> 46:30.370
But yeah, that little plunger just rides in and out and it's not a complex mechanism.

46:30.530 --> 46:42.310
I've known people, maybe I've heard of people, who hypothetically had their gas turned off because they were potentially a moron and didn't pay their bills for maybe a year.

46:42.650 --> 46:45.210
And maybe they turned the gas back on this way.

46:45.270 --> 46:48.310
But I could just be telling a story someone told me.

46:49.110 --> 46:50.130
Was there a question?

46:50.130 --> 46:51.590
There were a couple of questions on that one.

46:54.890 --> 47:02.470
Oh, how do I... I just... Actually, I think I have one that has... You can kind of see the plunger in there.

47:03.850 --> 47:05.270
Oh, I'll show you the key.

47:05.270 --> 47:11.370
The tool that I use just reaches in and has a hook tip and I just kind of grab as hard as I can on the spring.

47:11.370 --> 47:14.970
The spring is sort of fused to the base of the plunger.

47:14.970 --> 47:17.830
So if you get that spring at all, it'll move.

47:17.890 --> 47:19.730
Was there another question before I jumped on?

47:19.730 --> 47:20.070
No?

47:20.070 --> 47:20.210
Alright

47:23.400 --> 47:23.840
.

47:24.300 --> 47:26.280
There's another type, very similar.

47:26.280 --> 47:29.220
It's just called a screw style, bolt style.

47:29.220 --> 47:35.480
In this case, there's just threading and the bolt that's inside the plunger spins outward.

47:35.920 --> 47:38.500
The key on that... Here's what keys look like.

47:38.500 --> 47:41.080
This is the actual anchor key.

47:41.080 --> 47:42.940
It's called A-N-K-E-R.

47:43.340 --> 47:44.700
It's really just... It sticks down.

47:44.700 --> 47:49.680
I think the tip of this has a pair of hooks that flange outward if you pull the handle.

47:50.200 --> 47:52.860
But, you know, that's really all it is, just a hook.

47:53.200 --> 47:54.480
And this is the bolt style.

47:54.480 --> 47:58.820
Now, you should note that this is not a regular Phillips head or hex head pattern here.

47:58.820 --> 48:00.600
This is a unique cut pattern.

48:00.760 --> 48:05.480
And the bolt on the inside, if you have a rotating bolt style barrel lock, is a unique cut pattern.

48:05.480 --> 48:08.900
So it's very, very hard to get to pick a rotating bolt style.

48:09.220 --> 48:11.700
These are... I think Agbay makes these.

48:11.700 --> 48:13.700
These are rotating disc style.

48:13.700 --> 48:17.360
You can actually get barrel locks in rotating disc.

48:17.360 --> 48:19.740
We'll talk about what a rotating disc lock is later.

48:19.740 --> 48:21.120
They are really nice.

48:21.120 --> 48:24.960
They are a whole world of difference from what you see on the table in front of me.

48:24.960 --> 48:29.320
You can do all kind of levels of permission characteristics, master keying.

48:29.500 --> 48:37.380
If any of you work for any type of a company large enough to think about barrel locks, consider going with a higher end one.

48:37.380 --> 48:41.360
I don't know the price breakdown, but it's really, really worth it.

48:43.140 --> 48:46.600
And just worth mentioning, you see these in similar situations.

48:46.600 --> 48:48.780
A lot of the same vendors sell them.

48:48.780 --> 48:50.880
They're called intimidator screws.

48:50.960 --> 48:52.780
These are included just to mention.

48:52.780 --> 48:54.480
These are obviously not locks.

48:54.480 --> 48:56.720
Their freaking name is intimidator.

48:56.720 --> 48:58.860
It's meant just to dissuade someone.

48:59.000 --> 49:01.900
These are not to be thought of as real locks.

49:02.680 --> 49:07.080
But you'll see these in very similar light duty situations.

49:08.960 --> 49:10.040
Ah, dimple locks.

49:10.040 --> 49:11.800
Someone mentioned these earlier.

49:12.140 --> 49:14.180
Let me try to make some real estate up here.

49:15.100 --> 49:16.520
Are we having fun so far?

49:16.520 --> 49:17.440
Am I doing alright?

49:32.280 --> 49:33.540
Dimple locks.

49:34.260 --> 49:37.720
You may have seen a lot of European locks are of this design.

49:37.720 --> 49:41.920
In fact, the device, you know the club that goes on automobiles?

49:41.920 --> 49:44.780
They had a competitor that came out not too long ago.

49:44.780 --> 49:45.940
I guess it's long now.

49:45.940 --> 49:48.160
That kind of wraps around the brake pedal.

49:48.280 --> 49:52.240
And one of the big things in their infomercial was that the club lock is just a joke little lock.

49:52.240 --> 49:53.740
Our lock uses a dimple key.

49:53.740 --> 49:57.820
You'll see these on higher end situations.

49:58.120 --> 50:01.740
Dimple keys, the keyway is flipped this side.

50:01.800 --> 50:05.520
It's flat, so it's a bastard to get your picks in there.

50:06.420 --> 50:09.920
And the... Where did I... Oh, never mind.

50:09.920 --> 50:12.440
I don't have a picture of the key, just other than to show you this.

50:12.700 --> 50:16.020
Yeah, dimple keys to actually carve the bidding on them.

50:16.020 --> 50:18.680
It takes a little more skill to get in there.

50:20.240 --> 50:26.080
But inside, you know, inside most of the time, these are just simple pin tumbler locks.

50:27.060 --> 50:27.920
Let's see if I have...

50:30.320 --> 50:32.800
You know, it's just a pin stack in here.

50:32.980 --> 50:34.300
You know, it's facing a different way.

50:34.300 --> 50:38.160
It looks different, but it shouldn't be thought of as dramatically different.

50:38.160 --> 50:40.700
It has its benefits, it has its weaknesses.

50:41.060 --> 50:44.300
Some people have tried to make these locks even more secure.

50:44.400 --> 50:45.820
Let me see if I have that.

50:46.220 --> 50:50.260
Well, first, instead of showing you the more secure one, let me show you the less secure one.

50:51.280 --> 50:57.540
There are other means of, you know, if I said the keyway is so small, it's hard to put your picks in.

50:57.900 --> 51:00.360
There's other means of picking them, however.

51:00.740 --> 51:02.780
There's a method called impressioning.

51:02.840 --> 51:09.400
Those of you, the few of you who said you knew Barry Wells, the rest of you shall be introduced to him with this video clip.

51:09.700 --> 51:11.380
And we hope that we have sound running.

51:11.380 --> 51:14.700
I'm jacked in and everyone heard that loud blaring of sound earlier.

51:15.000 --> 51:16.660
So let's see what we've got.

51:16.960 --> 51:19.260
It's very difficult to pick this lock.

51:19.260 --> 51:21.060
It's extremely difficult.

51:21.060 --> 51:24.800
They put in all sorts of anti-pick pins.

51:25.000 --> 51:28.020
It really is a very nasty lock to pick.

51:28.020 --> 51:32.620
On the other hand, I just explained to you a little bit about impressioning.

51:32.720 --> 51:36.480
And there is a very easy trick to open these locks.

51:36.480 --> 51:38.380
And I'll try to demonstrate it.

51:40.840 --> 51:44.680
Here you see the original key.

51:44.680 --> 51:49.400
It has a deep cut, not so deep cut, deeper cut, not so deep cut.

51:49.460 --> 51:52.140
And here's the blank that we prepared.

51:52.200 --> 51:55.140
The blank has the cuts all the way to the deepest.

51:55.280 --> 51:57.720
So this key will never open a lock.

51:57.720 --> 52:00.120
We even made it a little bit deeper.

52:00.800 --> 52:04.540
All the holes are just a little bit deeper than they normally get.

52:04.540 --> 52:13.300
And what I'm going to try to do now is put some aluminum tape over this blank key so it becomes high again.

52:13.300 --> 52:14.720
Stick it in the lock.

52:14.720 --> 52:19.920
Then the pins will push on the prepared key.

52:20.740 --> 52:22.380
They will bind.

52:22.460 --> 52:29.620
I will move it left and right and the keys that bind will actually push deeper and deeper and deeper into the foil.

52:29.620 --> 52:32.660
And at one moment hopefully the lock will turn.

52:32.660 --> 52:34.880
And I have an exact copy of the key.

52:34.920 --> 52:41.080
And this is a technique that is possible on almost all dimple lock keys.

52:41.080 --> 52:48.600
It's not possible on the Notti locks because they have pin in pin and some have to be pushed upwards and therefore it doesn't work on that.

52:48.600 --> 52:52.580
But it works on an amazingly amount of locks.

52:52.580 --> 52:53.960
I show you what I do.

52:53.960 --> 53:02.400
I put some of this aluminum foil that is being used in the car industry and the heating industry over this blank.

53:02.400 --> 53:04.300
So as you can now see it's covered.

53:04.340 --> 53:10.780
The trick is that the way where the key will enter the lock has to be perfect.

53:10.840 --> 53:15.600
Because that's where it will probably jam up if this goes wrong.

53:17.040 --> 53:17.520
Ok.

53:17.520 --> 53:21.000
I'll try to insert it.

53:21.320 --> 53:22.440
Ok.

53:24.320 --> 53:27.660
Now, the prepared blank is in the lock.

53:27.940 --> 53:30.340
And now I will wiggle it.

53:31.280 --> 53:34.640
This will take a little bit longer than the ace lock.

53:35.060 --> 53:38.000
But hopefully the result will be the same.

53:41.340 --> 53:42.380
But anyway, if...

53:43.040 --> 53:49.540
On average that would open the lock because the tin foil would slowly shape it to the right levels.

53:49.540 --> 53:52.180
You go in there you wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, pop.

53:52.280 --> 53:53.800
That's how it would average.

53:54.000 --> 53:54.900
It wouldn't take very long.

53:54.900 --> 53:55.860
Ok, there we go.

53:59.280 --> 54:01.160
Now watch when he pulls it out.

54:07.500 --> 54:09.660
He's made an exact copy of the key.

54:11.700 --> 54:14.920
Now remember, this is a $150 lock.

54:16.380 --> 54:21.060
Well, some people are really going to be upset because this works with a lot of these tin foil locks.

54:21.840 --> 54:23.280
So that's Barry Wells.

54:23.280 --> 54:24.860
Very, very good cat to know.

54:24.860 --> 54:26.540
He's a very bright guy.

54:26.880 --> 54:31.960
And that is the impressioning technique which made... and you can see like the room just erupted at hope.

54:31.980 --> 54:34.940
That really blows people away to see it's that simple but it works.

54:34.940 --> 54:38.440
I've seen him do it and I'm just I'm in awe of the stuff that he can pull off.

54:38.440 --> 54:39.720
He's a really great guy.

54:40.820 --> 54:45.260
There's... I'm mentioning here another technique that sometimes opens these locks called bump keying.

54:45.260 --> 54:46.540
We're going to cover that in a bit too.

54:46.540 --> 54:48.300
How many people have ever heard of bump keying?

54:48.920 --> 54:49.940
Oh, only some of you.

54:49.940 --> 54:51.560
So you're going to have some fun with this in a bit.

54:52.500 --> 54:54.180
Let me see if that's next or if I added...

54:54.180 --> 54:55.540
No, I added a new section.

54:55.540 --> 55:00.220
There is a dimple lock that's a specialized style of lock.

55:00.220 --> 55:09.820
It's a high-end dimple lock that's recently the Multilock Company who was acquired by the Abloy Group a large umbrella company of lock manufacturers in Europe.

55:09.820 --> 55:15.770
The Multilock is very special because it has what's called telescoping pins or pin-in-pin systems.

55:16.160 --> 55:26.060
The pin stacks, not only do they have regular top and bottom pins, but they have their hollow so they actually have top and bottom pins inside of the top and bottom pins.

55:26.140 --> 55:32.560
So the key cuts are both dimple cuts and sometimes little protrusions in the middle.

55:32.660 --> 55:34.300
So the pins track in and out.

55:34.300 --> 55:36.220
There's pins tracking inside of each other.

55:36.220 --> 55:38.000
It's a very, very secure design.

55:38.000 --> 55:39.500
It's a brilliant idea.

55:39.980 --> 55:45.620
It's a brilliant idea, but in theory, theory and practice are different things.

55:47.300 --> 55:52.900
This is what if you were to just kind of look down a lock at a Multilock it kind of looks like.

55:52.900 --> 55:54.480
You can see you have your pin stacks.

55:54.480 --> 55:56.240
You can see kind of protruding.

55:56.240 --> 55:58.260
We have pins inside of pins.

55:58.740 --> 56:01.060
And most people say, oh, that's a brilliant design.

56:01.060 --> 56:03.120
You know, you've got this Multilock and that's so...

56:03.120 --> 56:05.240
that must be hell to pick.

56:05.240 --> 56:06.600
I can't imagine something like that.

56:06.600 --> 56:09.140
Well, it's actually a little something like this.

56:09.140 --> 56:10.800
Did anyone catch the difference?

56:13.060 --> 56:15.800
This is what people think a Multilock is.

56:16.160 --> 56:18.780
This is pretty much how a Multilock works.

56:20.040 --> 56:22.800
Can anyone notice what is the difference?

56:24.420 --> 56:25.580
Yes.

56:25.580 --> 56:29.060
The top pins are not independent of one another.

56:29.060 --> 56:30.740
They are a related system.

56:30.740 --> 56:34.720
They interact with each other in ways that were not completely foreseen.

56:35.700 --> 56:38.520
Can anyone tell me... let's see...

56:39.440 --> 56:51.680
This is a really hard question, so this is definitely going to be worth this will be an issue of Frack, a Red Bull, a lighter , and I think we're going to do maybe a hard drive.

56:51.680 --> 57:01.620
I have a lot of old hard drives that are too small for me, but maybe I forgot to erase, you know, Aqua Teen Hunger Force or Monty Python or something I was storing on them.

57:01.620 --> 57:02.920
I don't know.

57:03.200 --> 57:04.580
Might be there.

57:05.420 --> 57:12.340
Can anyone tell me the name of the student from Rampamoe College in New Jersey You already got your hand up?

57:12.340 --> 57:13.120
Jesus.

57:13.480 --> 57:20.280
You have to pronounce his name correctly, who published an exploit based around this attack?

57:21.640 --> 57:23.520
Close, but no, not pronounced right.

57:23.520 --> 57:25.460
I saw a hand back here.

57:26.700 --> 57:27.780
No guess?

57:27.980 --> 57:29.260
Who was it over here?

57:31.300 --> 57:32.260
Pardon me?

57:33.240 --> 57:34.740
No, it was not Eric Murdoch.

57:34.740 --> 57:36.240
I saw a few hands.

57:36.500 --> 57:38.040
Was there anybody I feel like...

57:38.040 --> 57:38.720
I'm missing out.

57:38.720 --> 57:40.100
I know your hand must have been up.

57:40.760 --> 57:44.800
Eric Michaud is the correct answer.

57:44.800 --> 57:45.980
Way to go, man.

57:54.690 --> 58:00.370
Yeah, Eric is at WhatTheHack which unfortunately is running at the same time as Defcon this year.

58:00.570 --> 58:02.110
See that red box?

58:02.110 --> 58:05.350
Take a look in there and maybe grab a hard drive to your liking.

58:07.110 --> 58:09.010
I think FAT, probably.

58:09.010 --> 58:10.330
Probably FAT file system.

58:11.390 --> 58:14.070
The little red, the master, the box that says hard drives.

58:16.650 --> 58:19.150
Yeah, the Michaud attack...

58:19.830 --> 58:20.950
I'm sorry, what?

58:27.260 --> 58:28.220
What's that?

58:34.680 --> 58:35.840
You want to help me out, Sandy?

58:35.840 --> 58:37.020
How would we describe this?

58:37.020 --> 58:38.320
This is Mouse, everybody.

58:38.320 --> 58:41.840
She's a member of Tool USA, so she's here with us.

58:42.280 --> 58:46.260
Would we call this an exploit or a proof or what would you think this is?

59:04.880 --> 59:13.900
Yeah, this is a tool that we have worked and I'd probably snap it apart, but giving enough time, I can keep cutting these and eventually we do get them to work.

59:19.700 --> 59:21.820
Yeah, Ken Presson, the guy from Peterson.

59:21.820 --> 59:23.240
Remember I mentioned Peterson, the vendor.

59:23.240 --> 59:27.360
He is, this is definitely on his radar and he's like, oh man, I got some ideas for this.

59:30.700 --> 59:34.460
Yeah, we've engaged with Multilock is aware that people are working on this.

59:34.460 --> 59:36.680
They've acknowledged that there is something to this.

59:39.940 --> 59:42.540
Yeah, they do love to send out letters, don't they?

59:44.240 --> 59:47.900
The trick behind, I mean, you can, most of you, you can see what's going on here.

59:47.900 --> 59:50.420
You'll probably see already where this is going.

59:50.940 --> 59:58.320
Typically, the pin stack would function, this inner pin would be pushed never that high up, because you've got to picture a dimple key.

59:58.320 --> 01:00:02.120
You're not going to have a dimple that's little and like this big spike in the middle.

01:00:02.120 --> 01:00:05.420
So dimple keys usually don't push the inner pin very high.

01:00:05.820 --> 01:00:10.280
That doesn't mean you couldn't stick something in there to push that pin very high.

01:00:10.680 --> 01:00:18.020
And if you over lift that pin stack, the Michaud attack just completely moves everything out of the way.

01:00:20.360 --> 01:00:23.800
It's a very, very elegant discovery.

01:00:23.800 --> 01:00:25.620
And we're very proud of him.

01:00:25.620 --> 01:00:26.560
How old is Eric?

01:00:26.560 --> 01:00:27.540
He's like...

01:00:28.200 --> 01:00:30.320
He looks 15, but he's in his 20s.

01:00:30.320 --> 01:00:31.820
He's a really bright kid.

01:00:31.820 --> 01:00:33.440
So, way to go, Eric.

01:00:33.940 --> 01:00:38.420
Keep this on your radar and see if Peterson starts selling anything about it.

01:00:40.220 --> 01:00:45.360
Back to other locks that are less secure, and everyone knows are less secure.

01:00:45.740 --> 01:00:46.900
Tubular locks.

01:00:47.720 --> 01:00:51.560
Tubular locks, you guys must have seen tubular locks here and there in life, right?

01:00:51.560 --> 01:00:53.340
How many people have seen a tubular lock?

01:00:53.740 --> 01:00:54.600
Yes.

01:00:55.120 --> 01:00:57.760
From the last talk, we mentioned the kryptonite itself.

01:00:57.760 --> 01:01:01.640
Kryptonite tubular lock, one of the best ones that people will probably be familiar with.

01:01:01.740 --> 01:01:04.820
My parents' old house, the alarm system was a tubular lock.

01:01:04.940 --> 01:01:11.900
When tubular keys first came out, they were revered as this breakthrough because, yeah, they're a very new design.

01:01:11.900 --> 01:01:13.520
No one had, you know, wow, what is this shape?

01:01:13.520 --> 01:01:14.280
This is neat.

01:01:14.280 --> 01:01:15.840
I guess you couldn't cut this very easily.

01:01:15.840 --> 01:01:18.680
Yes, it's harder to cut a tubular key bidding.

01:01:19.660 --> 01:01:24.560
But you have a lock that's literally staring you in the face with all of the pins.

01:01:25.080 --> 01:01:33.700
It lends itself very well to a lot of experimentation and fiddling because you can independently work on these pin stacks right there.

01:01:41.020 --> 01:01:43.500
This is called a tubular pick.

01:01:44.420 --> 01:01:57.400
And a tubular pick has all these little fingers that can track up and down and actually simulate the different cut depths on a tubular key.

01:01:58.360 --> 01:02:03.780
If I were to, let's say, find a tubular lock somewhere in my belongings.

01:02:12.330 --> 01:02:16.750
Well, I'll do the crappiest one I have just because it's on the top of the pile.

01:02:17.750 --> 01:02:19.490
Everyone's seen these before.

01:02:20.210 --> 01:02:26.710
These are your basic, you know, cheap-ass, not-allowed-to-be-sold-in-stores-anymore kryptonite-type lock.

01:02:27.950 --> 01:02:34.630
The way a tubular lock works, you take the pick, stick it right in the lock, and wiggle it.

01:02:36.730 --> 01:02:37.130
And...

01:02:37.130 --> 01:02:38.850
Hang on, I've got to give a little more tension on my...

01:02:48.160 --> 01:02:53.960
The problem with this lock is I've beat it to hell because of another exploit that we'll talk about in a moment.

01:02:55.260 --> 01:02:56.560
Yeah, I think this lock...

01:02:56.560 --> 01:02:58.160
I think this lock is completely destroyed.

01:02:58.900 --> 01:03:01.980
I was going to buy a new one, but you really... You've got to give them credit.

01:03:01.980 --> 01:03:03.560
They did pull all these out of the stores.

01:03:03.560 --> 01:03:05.420
You can't get this lock anymore.

01:03:05.940 --> 01:03:07.680
So, yeah, this lock is beyond all hope.

01:03:07.680 --> 01:03:08.780
Let me grab a different one.

01:03:20.860 --> 01:03:23.380
Because of the public... Well, why aren't they selling them in stores?

01:03:23.380 --> 01:03:25.180
Let's jump to this then.

01:03:28.060 --> 01:03:34.280
This is why, if you don't have... This is a kryptonite Evolution 2000 lock.

01:03:41.060 --> 01:03:59.040
I used to use this to lock up my bike around here in Seattle until I found out that you can take a big pen and just remove the top and just pop it into the lock and just do a couple little quick twists and turns and voila!

01:03:59.820 --> 01:04:03.560
Your lock and your bike is completely compromised.

01:04:03.920 --> 01:04:06.540
So, way to go, kryptonite.

01:04:07.620 --> 01:04:09.900
That's why they don't sell it in stores anymore.

01:04:11.760 --> 01:04:14.280
Does Peterson sell big pens was the question.

01:04:14.280 --> 01:04:15.380
I don't know.

01:04:15.980 --> 01:04:20.280
Yeah, the original design, the spring tensions were really bad and it was just...

01:04:20.280 --> 01:04:22.540
That's what they were talking about in the last talk.

01:04:25.360 --> 01:04:30.360
Right, the modern tubular lock, the gentleman points out, is usually designed by Ace.

01:04:30.360 --> 01:04:32.340
There's the Ace and the Ace 2 even.

01:04:32.340 --> 01:04:35.180
Those are much better quality tubular locks.

01:04:35.180 --> 01:04:38.140
They have high tension springs, variable tension springs.

01:04:38.140 --> 01:04:39.400
You can't just jam a pen in there.

01:04:39.400 --> 01:04:41.600
I saw two hands, one and then two.

01:04:44.700 --> 01:04:51.300
Not really possible to use a shim just because traditionally tubular locks, you're not spinning something.

01:04:51.300 --> 01:04:58.240
You're actually, those are key retaining locks because of the little notch in the... well, you really can't see that.

01:04:58.820 --> 01:05:02.400
If you've ever used a tubular lock, you know you can't just leave the key in it.

01:05:02.400 --> 01:05:05.300
You have to completely pull it back around to get the key out.

01:05:05.400 --> 01:05:09.800
So there's no reason for any type of spring mechanism to be a part of the secure latch.

01:05:09.800 --> 01:05:11.220
It's all one solid piece.

01:05:11.220 --> 01:05:12.720
You really can't shim them easily.

01:05:12.740 --> 01:05:14.160
And there was one hand back here.

01:05:14.860 --> 01:05:15.700
Same question.

01:05:15.700 --> 01:05:17.520
Okay, yeah, you really can't shim them.

01:05:17.760 --> 01:05:29.860
However, if, you know, you have something that can't be defeated by a ballpoint pen, which is, you know, your Ace type design, you can get this lock pick, which is, this one's by Southerd.

01:05:29.860 --> 01:05:31.360
Other people do make them.

01:05:31.400 --> 01:05:34.160
These are really beautiful, beautiful devices.

01:05:34.740 --> 01:05:44.740
I'm just gonna make that nice and flat and flush, so that kind of simulates a, you know, you could actually see the key cuts would be of different depths.

01:05:45.060 --> 01:05:46.200
Those bidding cuts.

01:05:46.200 --> 01:05:52.540
And this simulates, let me flush it back out, this would be a tubular key that's not cut at all.

01:05:53.180 --> 01:06:01.600
If I give this a little tension, and I stick this in the lock, and I wiggle it some, and now that's open.

01:06:02.600 --> 01:06:06.500
You can see the, this is a drawback, it draws a bar back out here.

01:06:06.500 --> 01:06:08.020
This is actually a gun lock.

01:06:10.040 --> 01:06:22.740
Not only have I opened the lock, but, I have the bidding of that key, and you could take this to a locksmith shop, and get a replacement key cut, very very easily .

01:06:22.780 --> 01:06:26.900
I don't recommend that anyone walk into a locksmith shop with a pick .

01:06:28.900 --> 01:06:34.180
All the picks that you can find, usually of this nature, they come with what's called a decoder key.

01:06:34.180 --> 01:06:47.020
It's a little key that just has cuts on it of different depths, and you kind of, it's like a gauge, you go, okay, one, two, and you can actually you could walk into a lock shop and say, I need a seven pin tubular key that's bidded out at three, six, three,

01:06:47.020 --> 01:06:48.740
four, two, seven, blah, blah, blah.

01:06:48.780 --> 01:06:51.740
And they'll just punch it in the machine, and cut it out.

01:06:51.900 --> 01:06:53.560
I saw a couple hands on that one.

01:06:57.560 --> 01:07:01.940
This, talk about, talk about wonderful, wonderful girlfriends.

01:07:01.940 --> 01:07:05.440
This was a birthday gift from my girlfriend right before ShmooCon.

01:07:05.640 --> 01:07:08.140
So, this is about an $80 pick.

01:07:08.200 --> 01:07:14.300
And you got, you know, everyone else and their brother gives you, like, sweaters and, you know, oh, here's some crap you don't really care about.

01:07:14.300 --> 01:07:15.500
And I'm like, I wonder what this is going to be.

01:07:15.500 --> 01:07:16.400
And I broke this out.

01:07:16.400 --> 01:07:17.700
I just, I wanted to cry.

01:07:20.100 --> 01:07:21.400
Question over here.

01:07:25.680 --> 01:07:26.740
I'm sorry.

01:07:26.740 --> 01:07:28.660
Oh, I understand what you were saying.

01:07:28.660 --> 01:07:34.000
He asked if, while I was picking this, was I actually manipulating the heights?

01:07:34.000 --> 01:07:37.720
No, you don't have to actually force these to do anything.

01:07:37.720 --> 01:07:50.840
What happens is, much like with a pin stack that we were working before, if I put, let me see, if I put torque on this, it's not all seven pins that are binding at once.

01:07:50.840 --> 01:07:53.620
Only one pin stack is going to really bind .

01:07:53.640 --> 01:08:03.220
So by torquing, jiggling and jiggling around, the binding pin stack will start to push down, down, down, down, down on a feeler until it's at the right height.

01:08:03.260 --> 01:08:05.560
When it's at the right height, that's no longer binding.

01:08:05.560 --> 01:08:07.220
The next one will bind and so on and so forth.

01:08:07.220 --> 01:08:12.320
So all I have to do is jiggle it and they'll eventually all track down to the right height and they do it all by itself.

01:08:12.320 --> 01:08:14.500
Question here, behind you actually.

01:08:17.720 --> 01:08:19.320
I've never seen a tubular blank.

01:08:19.320 --> 01:08:24.860
I think they're just, you know, just tubes and What's that?

01:08:24.920 --> 01:08:25.660
They're blank.

01:08:27.300 --> 01:08:32.120
Yeah, so yeah, they have the little notch that keeps it seated in the lock.

01:08:32.140 --> 01:08:34.060
But you can just cut them with regular tools.

01:08:34.060 --> 01:08:35.740
There was, hang on, you and then you.

01:08:36.160 --> 01:08:38.580
And am I missing, are there hands on the outside that I'm not seeing?

01:08:38.820 --> 01:08:39.240
No?

01:08:39.240 --> 01:08:39.640
Alright.

01:08:39.640 --> 01:08:40.340
Go ahead, sir.

01:08:40.340 --> 01:08:41.580
Are they all the same diameter?

01:08:41.740 --> 01:08:43.880
The question was, are they all the same diameter?

01:08:43.880 --> 01:08:49.240
I think diameter, yes, but there are two main systems of pinning.

01:08:49.240 --> 01:08:51.040
There's seven pin and eight pin.

01:08:51.780 --> 01:08:54.200
There's actually two picks that Souther offers.

01:08:54.200 --> 01:08:56.240
I think there's a bonus if you buy them both at once.

01:08:56.240 --> 01:08:57.240
It's like a savings.

01:08:57.860 --> 01:08:59.080
There's the seven pin.

01:08:59.080 --> 01:09:01.200
By the way, everything is seven pin.

01:09:01.200 --> 01:09:03.620
I've never seen an eight pin in my life.

01:09:04.200 --> 01:09:10.560
There's also something called seven pin offset, which the eight pin pick will work in a seven pin offset lock.

01:09:10.780 --> 01:09:16.980
But , yeah, unless you are like a locksmith by profession or want to become one, just start off buying this one.

01:09:16.980 --> 01:09:20.000
The seven pin is going to be all you play with for everything you can find.

01:09:20.260 --> 01:09:22.160
There was another question over here.

01:09:40.230 --> 01:09:41.590
Yes and no.

01:09:41.590 --> 01:09:42.870
The gentleman raises a point.

01:09:42.870 --> 01:09:53.850
He said, almost all of what we're talking about, especially as far as pin tumbler picking, excuse me, is based upon misalignment and imperfection in the locks manufacturing process.

01:09:53.850 --> 01:10:00.030
And he said, you know, if you had a very precise alignment, you wouldn't need a lot of these other security features, would you?

01:10:00.030 --> 01:10:01.230
Yes and no.

01:10:01.230 --> 01:10:03.530
You can get very precise machining.

01:10:03.530 --> 01:10:11.470
And in fact, all of your well-made locks, the ones I was talking about, like the ASA locks, the Medicos, just by name, they're all engineered very, very well.

01:10:11.470 --> 01:10:13.530
They're engineered to much higher tolerances.

01:10:13.710 --> 01:10:17.270
But you guys know there's a difference between math on paper and math in real life.

01:10:17.270 --> 01:10:22.450
There's never anything that's 100% perfectly flushed down to like a micron level.

01:10:22.450 --> 01:10:25.990
There's always going to be some intolerance introduced into the equation.

01:10:25.990 --> 01:10:29.370
That's why high security pins are still very valid to have.

01:10:30.010 --> 01:10:33.350
But yes, so yeah, you can have them, some are better than others.

01:10:33.350 --> 01:10:35.670
High security locks will be better engineered.

01:10:35.810 --> 01:10:37.530
There was another hand somewhere.

01:10:37.790 --> 01:10:38.570
Yes.

01:10:43.510 --> 01:10:44.670
Pardon me?

01:10:46.210 --> 01:10:47.870
Oh, I'm sorry.

01:10:47.870 --> 01:10:49.430
Welcome from across the pond.

01:10:49.430 --> 01:10:51.710
The question was, how did the biro trick work?

01:10:51.710 --> 01:10:56.070
And for those of us yanks, that was how did the ballpoint pen work?

01:10:56.330 --> 01:11:14.450
That worked just because the spring tensions were so bad and because the pins could seat all the way in, if you just jammed, you know, you just jam a ballpoint pen in there, it smashes all the springs, all the pins, completely out of the way, and it just forces the pins way up inside the lock.

01:11:14.450 --> 01:11:16.110
Both the, Miles, am I getting this right?

01:11:16.110 --> 01:11:26.850
Both the driver and the keypin go completely yeah, both the driver and keypin go completely out of the plug and they seat way up inside the chamber so the plug can rotate freely.

01:11:26.850 --> 01:11:33.890
People also notice that if you pull the pen out, if you're doing that to a lock sometimes the pins are all screwed up then and you screw your lock up.

01:11:33.890 --> 01:11:37.170
So you need a pick like this to get it back working again.

01:11:37.390 --> 01:11:38.210
You had a question, ma'am?

01:11:55.640 --> 01:11:56.600
Very good question.

01:11:56.600 --> 01:12:07.400
The question was, if you want to get high security pins in your locks, either to practice with them or conceivably to secure your home with them, he's, you know, Viros is mentioning, where do you find these?

01:12:07.400 --> 01:12:08.400
I don't see them anywhere.

01:12:08.760 --> 01:12:12.300
That's because I'm assuming you're talking about in stores, you've never found them.

01:12:12.300 --> 01:12:12.580
Right.

01:12:12.640 --> 01:12:17.400
Because we're Americans and our stores just don't carry very good locks because they sit on the shelf.

01:12:17.400 --> 01:12:17.940
No one buys them.

01:12:17.940 --> 01:12:20.300
People are like, 70 bucks for this sucker?

01:12:20.360 --> 01:12:21.560
This is 12!

01:12:21.560 --> 01:12:22.700
Hell with that!

01:12:23.280 --> 01:12:25.160
Yeah, you buy them on the internet.

01:12:25.160 --> 01:12:26.200
Look on the internet.

01:12:26.220 --> 01:12:30.960
Any reputable vendor will actually say, you know, features high secure pins features this, that, and the other.

01:12:30.960 --> 01:12:33.440
It's not a feature that they want to be secretive about.

01:12:33.440 --> 01:12:34.760
It's a benefit to the lock.

01:12:34.760 --> 01:12:35.880
So they're going to advertise it.

01:12:37.940 --> 01:12:39.640
Oh, I understand.

01:12:39.640 --> 01:12:40.160
Right.

01:12:40.220 --> 01:12:45.120
You don't, right, he said, do you know if they're a spool pin or a mushroom pin or a serrated pin?

01:12:45.760 --> 01:12:49.020
Different vendors tend to have pins they like to use.

01:12:49.060 --> 01:12:53.280
For instance, you know, we talked about the Asa, that was a spool pin lock.

01:12:53.280 --> 01:12:55.840
We'll talk a little later about American brand padlocks.

01:12:55.840 --> 01:12:57.780
They are big on serrated pins.

01:12:58.520 --> 01:13:01.040
But, vendor by vendor, you can kind of get a feel for it.

01:13:01.040 --> 01:13:04.340
I don't know if there's a nice reference guide out there for who has what.

01:13:04.420 --> 01:13:07.320
But, you know, just break one apart and see what's in it.

01:13:07.900 --> 01:13:08.820
There was a question.

01:13:10.260 --> 01:13:11.680
Oh, very good point.

01:13:11.680 --> 01:13:12.840
Very good point.

01:13:12.920 --> 01:13:15.920
We'll talk about this in the URLs later when I give you a bunch of links.

01:13:16.420 --> 01:13:19.000
Lockpicking101.com would probably have that answer.

01:13:19.160 --> 01:13:22.300
It's a great , great user base of really knowledgeable people .

01:13:22.640 --> 01:13:27.040
Anything that I don't cover or you want to know more about, either talk to me later or check them out.

01:13:27.040 --> 01:13:28.640
I'm going to mention them again in a bit.

01:13:30.100 --> 01:13:32.520
Let's see, were there any other questions at the moment?

01:13:38.960 --> 01:13:46.500
The problem with a blank is that it might not, I'm trying to think if this was the thing, it might not grab onto...

01:13:46.500 --> 01:13:50.240
The question was, if the ballpoint pen works would just a regular blank have worked?

01:13:52.540 --> 01:13:53.700
Right, oh, alright.

01:13:53.700 --> 01:13:54.280
I understand.

01:13:54.280 --> 01:13:59.980
Part of part of the pins fitting in, let me see.

01:14:00.320 --> 01:14:01.600
I see what's going on.

01:14:03.120 --> 01:14:12.580
When you have key pins that are still in these grooves, you know, typically you'd have a driver pin stick out and the key pin would seat in this.

01:14:12.600 --> 01:14:13.780
Oh , Laz!

01:14:14.240 --> 01:14:15.340
There you are.

01:14:15.340 --> 01:14:16.420
How are you, man?

01:14:17.320 --> 01:14:18.380
Where were you?

01:14:18.460 --> 01:14:19.580
Stuck in an airplane.

01:14:19.580 --> 01:14:21.380
Oh man, sorry to hear that.

01:14:25.280 --> 01:14:28.880
Usually you would have key pins in those grooves.

01:14:28.880 --> 01:14:31.680
They are helping to turn that center post.

01:14:31.780 --> 01:14:36.980
With the pins being all pushed out of there, there's nothing for a blank to grab onto.

01:14:37.040 --> 01:14:39.060
That's why the plastic pen works so well.

01:14:39.060 --> 01:14:42.860
It actually grabs the post because it uses the plastic misshapes.

01:14:42.860 --> 01:14:44.940
It has a little friction and it will help spin.

01:14:44.940 --> 01:14:46.260
That's why that happens.

01:14:48.380 --> 01:14:48.960
Alright .

01:14:48.960 --> 01:14:50.660
You've got a smaller fucking screen.

01:14:51.580 --> 01:14:52.800
Are you going to sit up here and bitch?

01:14:52.800 --> 01:14:54.360
What the hell, man?

01:14:55.560 --> 01:14:58.300
So that was tubular locks.

01:15:01.580 --> 01:15:03.580
There we go, moving slowly forward.

01:15:04.960 --> 01:15:05.680
Yes?

01:15:09.940 --> 01:15:10.820
Pardon me?

01:15:16.400 --> 01:15:21.820
The question was about Kensington's, the ones that you see on a lot of laptops and security locks like that.

01:15:21.820 --> 01:15:23.460
They say, was it a different diameter?

01:15:23.600 --> 01:15:24.300
I don't know.

01:15:24.300 --> 01:15:24.960
I've never...

01:15:24.960 --> 01:15:26.060
They're the same?

01:15:26.500 --> 01:15:27.100
Okay, yeah.

01:15:27.100 --> 01:15:28.780
You can big pen those as well.

01:15:35.660 --> 01:15:36.260
Okay.

01:15:37.500 --> 01:15:38.020
Alright.

01:15:38.020 --> 01:15:39.340
Oh, we've got more questions.

01:15:43.620 --> 01:15:44.420
What's that?

01:15:48.670 --> 01:15:53.030
Apparently cardboard from a toilet paper roll works very well on a Kensington lock.

01:15:55.130 --> 01:15:56.750
Alright, we've got to move on.

01:15:56.750 --> 01:15:58.490
We're already in the second hour here.

01:16:05.490 --> 01:16:06.610
Alright.

01:16:06.610 --> 01:16:07.930
Moving along.

01:16:07.930 --> 01:16:08.590
Bump keying.

01:16:08.590 --> 01:16:15.890
We were mentioning bump keying earlier briefly when I said Barry was bumping his ASSA lock and you can sometimes bump dimple locks.

01:16:16.310 --> 01:16:22.030
Bump keying is a technique used to quickly spring a lock open with a specially cut key.

01:16:22.030 --> 01:16:23.310
It's called a bump key.

01:16:23.310 --> 01:16:25.350
It's also called a 999 key.

01:16:25.350 --> 01:16:30.230
For a Red Bull, can anyone tell me why it's a 999 key, where that name comes from?

01:16:30.230 --> 01:16:31.230
I saw your hand.

01:16:35.870 --> 01:16:37.150
Very, very good.

01:16:37.150 --> 01:16:44.510
The answer is key bidding has numbers like 0 is no cut at all, 1, 2, 3, the cut depth.

01:16:44.570 --> 01:16:48.590
A bump key is made by cutting all the bidding down to the deepest depths or the 9.

01:16:48.590 --> 01:16:50.150
So it's a 999 key.

01:16:50.690 --> 01:16:52.650
Bump keys work...

01:16:53.330 --> 01:16:57.230
Bump keys work very, very similar to the way pick guns work.

01:16:57.230 --> 01:17:01.790
So let's cover pick guns very briefly and you'll see why bump keys are very, very similar.

01:17:04.690 --> 01:17:05.950
Basic physics, guys.

01:17:05.950 --> 01:17:10.110
If we have a billiard balls on the table, what's going to happen if I shoot this cue?

01:17:12.050 --> 01:17:12.930
Yes.

01:17:13.130 --> 01:17:14.870
3 is not really going to go anywhere.

01:17:14.870 --> 01:17:16.130
2 is going to go flying.

01:17:16.130 --> 01:17:17.930
Newtonian physics at its finest .

01:17:19.390 --> 01:17:21.510
Pick guns work the same way.

01:17:21.510 --> 01:17:24.190
Pick guns, just a long blade down the barrel.

01:17:24.190 --> 01:17:27.390
It's tension with a spring and a trigger that flicks this.

01:17:27.450 --> 01:17:29.890
Pick guns work by smashing on the bottom pins.

01:17:29.890 --> 01:17:34.650
Hopefully, if you get it all lined up just right, you need a little practice, but you can smash them all at the same time.

01:17:34.930 --> 01:17:41.710
And if you're lucky, all the top pins will jump up and you can turn the lock very quickly before they have a chance to spring back down.

01:17:42.650 --> 01:17:58.370
But pick guns, besides being expensive, bulky, a pain in the ass to carry around, a very hard thing to explain what the hell they are if you get asked, there's a cheaper, easier, smaller, and very simple solution that can replicate this same physics.

01:18:00.370 --> 01:18:01.910
Thank you for this, by the way.

01:18:02.750 --> 01:18:04.910
It's a retribution for a previous beer bought.

01:18:05.830 --> 01:18:10.170
Laz and I first actually met, was it here at, was it 10 or 11?

01:18:10.190 --> 01:18:11.230
I don't know, I was drunk.

01:18:11.750 --> 01:18:19.890
Laz was up on stage and he was picking away and he wanted beer and I brought one up and I think I said something about, yeah, I saw you at Hope and I learned to pick.

01:18:19.890 --> 01:18:21.550
He's like, come up here and show me, man.

01:18:21.590 --> 01:18:24.310
I'm trying to embarrass my ass and I finally picked one for you, though.

01:18:24.730 --> 01:18:26.790
By the way, you're a dick.

01:18:27.190 --> 01:18:27.790
Why am I a dick?

01:18:27.790 --> 01:18:33.990
I was sitting over in speaker registration and I saw a video of me and Barry on stage and you're like, by the way, that's Barry, you didn't fucking mention me.

01:18:34.010 --> 01:18:36.850
Well, I'm sorry, it says your name in the link, Barry and Laz.

01:18:36.930 --> 01:18:37.650
Thanks.

01:18:40.590 --> 01:18:46.730
Alright, so simulating a pick gun with a bump key works as follows.

01:18:47.890 --> 01:18:50.990
Take a key that was designed for your lock.

01:18:50.990 --> 01:18:52.950
Notice I didn't say cut for your lock.

01:18:52.950 --> 01:18:54.350
It doesn't have to be the right bidding.

01:18:54.350 --> 01:18:59.470
It just has to be the right keyway that fits down into your lock.

01:19:00.230 --> 01:19:03.470
Take that and cut all the bidding notches to the deepest level.

01:19:03.710 --> 01:19:05.190
That's where you get 999.

01:19:06.170 --> 01:19:08.810
Now I'm going to be burping from this friggin' beer.

01:19:09.490 --> 01:19:11.970
You can do this with a key machine.

01:19:12.310 --> 01:19:15.730
Go to your local hardware store and be like, can you cut it to 999?

01:19:15.730 --> 01:19:18.370
The kid who's making 550 isn't going to ask you why.

01:19:19.090 --> 01:19:22.350
Or you can do this with a Dremel.

01:19:22.350 --> 01:19:24.650
You can do this with a lot of different tools.

01:19:26.210 --> 01:19:28.850
I've hand cut them before and they will work.

01:19:29.510 --> 01:19:32.870
Take this key and insert it into your lock.

01:19:32.870 --> 01:19:33.910
Not all the way.

01:19:33.910 --> 01:19:39.250
You'll actually feel as these ridges are going past the pins you'll feel it click, click, click as it goes in.

01:19:39.510 --> 01:19:42.030
Make sure it's one pin stack out.

01:19:43.030 --> 01:19:43.990
What's that?

01:19:44.930 --> 01:19:48.610
Yeah, put it all the way in and just click it out by one.

01:19:49.370 --> 01:19:55.850
Next thing you want to do is put a little bit of torque on this key and just smash the hell out of it.

01:19:56.950 --> 01:19:58.730
You come at it with a force.

01:19:59.030 --> 01:20:02.730
It bangs across all those ridges and you can see they connect.

01:20:02.810 --> 01:20:07.550
Hopefully you'll hit all of them at the same time and all those top pins will jump up.

01:20:12.010 --> 01:20:14.290
Yeah, you'll smash your hand a lot.

01:20:15.490 --> 01:20:17.170
It's just how that goes.

01:20:17.930 --> 01:20:24.630
One thing you often will get better luck with when you make a bump key, if you cut the shoulder back just a hair farther than it should this makes life a little bit easier.

01:20:24.810 --> 01:20:28.350
It gives a little bit more wiggle room when you're bumping it and knocks them a little bit harder.

01:20:28.370 --> 01:20:29.910
Not much of a difference but it does help.

01:20:33.070 --> 01:20:37.090
This is a kind of what we'll call one grade up from master.

01:20:37.690 --> 01:20:49.770
This is a fortress lock and this is a key that originally went to let me see if I have this one right originally went to a different fortress lock but I've cut it way down.

01:20:50.650 --> 01:21:02.210
Now if I put this in this will not open this lock but if I pull it out by one I'm going to try to do this so everyone can work with the camera here.

01:21:02.250 --> 01:21:04.430
The trick is a little and a lot.

01:21:04.430 --> 01:21:07.990
A little bit of torque and a lot of a little bit of bang.

01:21:08.850 --> 01:21:16.830
You actually want the sensation of the key slipping out of your fingertips as it's being knocked by the lock.

01:21:19.650 --> 01:21:20.730
There you go.

01:21:32.950 --> 01:21:34.630
You shouldn't have tried the second time, should you?

01:21:35.070 --> 01:21:36.690
I was impressed the first time.

01:21:38.790 --> 01:21:41.450
I'm pulling it too hard because I don't want to smash my thumbs.

01:21:41.650 --> 01:21:42.450
Pussy.

01:21:44.910 --> 01:21:46.170
Here, you do it then.

01:21:46.230 --> 01:21:47.030
Shit, I don't do that.

01:21:48.070 --> 01:21:49.670
That's why I have both colors for you.

01:21:50.410 --> 01:21:51.690
So that's bump keying.

01:21:51.810 --> 01:21:53.790
But there is a... I'm sorry, question.

01:22:02.980 --> 01:22:04.440
You're a brighter man than I.

01:22:04.860 --> 01:22:06.680
The question is why can't, you know, you just put...

01:22:09.520 --> 01:22:11.520
Yeah, put a torque tool in there or on the key.

01:22:11.520 --> 01:22:13.000
Yeah, you probably could do that.

01:22:13.460 --> 01:22:15.520
I'm not thinking clearly apparently.

01:22:15.780 --> 01:22:17.800
My thumb thanks you for that.

01:22:19.120 --> 01:22:22.600
This is sort of the dirty bump method, if you will.

01:22:22.600 --> 01:22:24.000
It's not that sophisticated.

01:22:24.340 --> 01:22:29.640
There is an even better bump method that the guys in Tool in the Netherlands came up with.

01:22:32.040 --> 01:22:33.300
I'm sorry, there's a question.

01:22:33.300 --> 01:22:33.860
Where was it?

01:22:33.860 --> 01:22:34.640
Left side.

01:22:37.600 --> 01:22:38.760
Not exactly.

01:22:38.760 --> 01:22:40.860
Raking, I didn't even cover raking that much.

01:22:40.860 --> 01:22:42.380
We'll talk about it in the hands-on.

01:22:42.380 --> 01:22:50.080
Raking is just beating up the pins independently, trying to just catch a bunch of shear lines at once on a crappier lock.

01:22:50.540 --> 01:22:54.860
Bump keying actually is intended to hit all the pins simultaneously.

01:23:05.220 --> 01:23:06.340
Oh, master wafer.

01:23:06.340 --> 01:23:07.440
Yeah, that can happen.

01:23:07.440 --> 01:23:10.820
The question was, we'll talk about master pinning in a little bit.

01:23:12.160 --> 01:23:21.120
Master pinning sometimes involves very small pins inserted or actually wafer shaped pins inserted into the stack with a big gap introduced like that.

01:23:21.120 --> 01:23:22.440
Can those flip and bind up?

01:23:22.440 --> 01:23:23.920
Yes, that conceivably can happen.

01:23:23.920 --> 01:23:27.160
It's not the most common thing because the gap is only there for a second.

01:23:27.300 --> 01:23:29.160
But I imagine it could happen.

01:23:29.260 --> 01:23:31.020
A little addendum to that.

01:23:31.680 --> 01:23:39.800
If that is happening, it's because the locksmith didn't follow the manufacturer's tolerances or the lock is wearing out because they have specific minimum wafer sizes so that doesn't happen.

01:23:39.880 --> 01:23:42.680
Because that used to happen a tremendous amount with people using too small of a wafer.

01:23:43.340 --> 01:23:43.900
There you go.

01:23:43.900 --> 01:23:44.620
Thank you.

01:23:45.300 --> 01:23:46.180
Shit, I got beer, man.

01:23:46.180 --> 01:23:47.020
I'm running out.

01:23:47.100 --> 01:23:47.700
Alright.

01:23:49.140 --> 01:23:57.340
Now, with respect to the I said that was like the dirty bump technique there is a really nice bump technique that's been published by the guys in Tool.

01:23:57.340 --> 01:23:59.760
It's called the Minimal Movement Bump.

01:24:00.320 --> 01:24:02.140
They actually have a white paper about it.

01:24:02.660 --> 01:24:10.960
This involves taking an existing bump key and at two different points heavily modifying this bump key even further.

01:24:11.640 --> 01:24:20.720
You can shave off probably about a quarter to a half of a millimeter from the shoulder and a half of a millimeter or more from the tip.

01:24:22.600 --> 01:24:25.560
Now this is a very, very unique modified key.

01:24:25.560 --> 01:24:31.040
If you have it in the lock you can even squeeze it a little deeper now because you've shaved the key down.

01:24:31.160 --> 01:24:37.920
And you notice that as you squeeze it in the spring pressures from the driver pins up top will actually kind of kick it back out a millimeter or so.

01:24:38.260 --> 01:24:46.900
This enables you to deliver a lot of force right where you want it very precisely without smashing across whole rows of pins.

01:24:46.900 --> 01:24:48.020
You come at this.

01:24:48.020 --> 01:24:50.460
They have a tool they call a tomahawk.

01:24:50.500 --> 01:24:52.040
I've seen them whack right at it.

01:24:52.040 --> 01:24:59.080
It comes right into beautiful force, delivered real clean and I've seen them bump really sophisticated like Barry mentioned.

01:24:59.080 --> 01:25:02.040
Remember I said the geographical weakness on that V10?

01:25:02.360 --> 01:25:07.440
He can make a bump key out of a V10 because the top part of the bidding will bump.

01:25:07.440 --> 01:25:10.940
The bottom part of the bidding on the side bar just does its job normally.

01:25:11.140 --> 01:25:12.740
He bumps his V10 that way.

01:25:12.740 --> 01:25:14.560
He's bumped multi-locks that way I've heard.

01:25:14.560 --> 01:25:20.000
I can't imagine how, but I guess the force just gets delivered because we talked about how the interactive pins work.

01:25:21.780 --> 01:25:24.120
That's a very powerful attack.

01:25:24.320 --> 01:25:26.580
It can, by the way, be bad for the lock.

01:25:26.580 --> 01:25:31.840
If you have a family heirloom or something and you're like, I'm going to play with bump keying.

01:25:32.120 --> 01:25:37.220
Don't do it if you care about the lock because I've destroyed locks doing this, especially if you do the dirty method.

01:25:37.220 --> 01:25:38.300
It'll misshape the pins.

01:25:38.300 --> 01:25:40.000
It'll really beat things up.

01:25:40.220 --> 01:25:43.920
I've had locks that just don't even work anymore because I've bumped them to death.

01:25:48.600 --> 01:25:50.100
We can cover that a little.

01:25:50.100 --> 01:25:53.880
The question was, doesn't this leave clear indications that this has happened?

01:25:53.880 --> 01:25:54.960
There's forensic evidence.

01:25:54.960 --> 01:25:56.280
We can talk about that in a bit.

01:25:56.280 --> 01:25:57.420
I've got to keep moving through though.

01:25:57.420 --> 01:25:58.560
We've got a lot of good stuff.

01:26:00.020 --> 01:26:01.100
Wait, yes, question.

01:26:06.680 --> 01:26:08.660
What keeps the key pins?

01:26:10.280 --> 01:26:15.340
Well, they can't fall down anymore because they're in the keyway as far down as they go.

01:26:15.500 --> 01:26:19.220
And they're not going to jump up because we're transferring physical force through them.

01:26:19.220 --> 01:26:21.940
So they're just going to sit right where they are.

01:26:22.120 --> 01:26:23.880
They're not going to go up, they're not going to go down.

01:26:24.020 --> 01:26:25.340
They have nowhere to go.

01:26:25.860 --> 01:26:28.520
There's spring tension behind them so they're not staying suspended.

01:26:28.520 --> 01:26:32.440
You have a half of a split second where they're up there and you're just catching that right moment.

01:26:32.440 --> 01:26:33.900
They're not staying up there permanently.

01:26:34.080 --> 01:26:37.200
You're just hitting it and they stay there for a split second like throwing a ball in the air.

01:26:37.540 --> 01:26:39.820
And while it's upright, just at the right height is when you grab it.

01:26:40.200 --> 01:26:40.760
Alright.

01:26:42.220 --> 01:26:43.840
Let me cut you off for half a second.

01:26:43.840 --> 01:26:46.580
General disclaimer, I don't know if you did this, I'm sorry I was registering.

01:26:47.480 --> 01:26:49.040
You mentioned you can break locks.

01:26:50.120 --> 01:26:53.000
Don't practice on your front door for a number of reasons.

01:26:53.000 --> 01:26:58.100
One, because you may break the lock, but more importantly because your neighbors will call the cops because they don't know who you are.

01:26:58.720 --> 01:27:02.380
If you're going to practice on any door, try a back door or whatnot, but still you're going to get your ass locked out of your house.

01:27:02.380 --> 01:27:04.500
So just go buy a $10 lock from Home Depot to practice.

01:27:05.660 --> 01:27:06.740
Very, very good point.

01:27:07.480 --> 01:27:09.160
So yes, this can be bad for the lock.

01:27:09.160 --> 01:27:11.400
I've destroyed locks doing this.

01:27:11.420 --> 01:27:16.700
Some of my locks, I've had to try to lubricate them to open them now because they're just broken and about lubrication.

01:27:16.700 --> 01:27:18.740
The question for a Red Bull...

01:27:21.520 --> 01:27:26.400
When, if ever, do you use WD-40 in a lock and why or why not?

01:27:26.760 --> 01:27:28.060
Whoa, that was a lot of...

01:27:28.060 --> 01:27:30.980
I think it was grayish blue shirt here.

01:27:34.140 --> 01:27:35.180
Half right answer.

01:27:35.180 --> 01:27:36.260
Get you a lighter.

01:27:36.800 --> 01:27:38.040
Come on up for a lighter.

01:27:52.870 --> 01:27:54.470
Oh, well it's a little bit...

01:27:54.470 --> 01:27:59.810
You're kind of on the right track, but I'm looking for a solid answer on when, if ever, you can use WD.

01:27:59.810 --> 01:28:01.490
I've got a guy down here with the glasses.

01:28:03.050 --> 01:28:07.410
Well, his answer was never, and I'm saying that's not a completely accurate answer.

01:28:12.270 --> 01:28:14.570
Well, you're all right around...

01:28:14.570 --> 01:28:16.630
Basically, a lot of people are hitting this point.

01:28:16.630 --> 01:28:17.950
The main point I wanted to make...

01:28:17.950 --> 01:28:18.750
Hang on here.

01:28:19.190 --> 01:28:20.070
My guy's in the front.

01:28:20.070 --> 01:28:22.230
Just throw some lighter at these people with their hands up.

01:28:22.310 --> 01:28:23.770
Because everyone kind of has it.

01:28:23.950 --> 01:28:24.650
Keep your hands up.

01:28:24.650 --> 01:28:25.570
I know who you are.

01:28:26.170 --> 01:28:28.170
That, hey, extra hands just went up.

01:28:30.210 --> 01:28:34.310
The point I wanted to make is WD-40 is not good...

01:28:34.310 --> 01:28:35.870
You can... You got them?

01:28:35.870 --> 01:28:36.510
These guys?

01:28:36.510 --> 01:28:37.630
All right.

01:28:37.790 --> 01:28:39.450
Start ripping with people's heads, dude.

01:28:40.550 --> 01:28:42.150
WD-40... We got a guy...

01:28:47.540 --> 01:28:48.120
Yes.

01:28:48.180 --> 01:28:49.360
WD-40...

01:28:49.360 --> 01:28:50.580
Did you get one?

01:28:51.480 --> 01:28:52.520
Was that a question?

01:28:59.510 --> 01:29:00.470
Very, very good.

01:29:00.470 --> 01:29:01.770
He's got the full... You actually...

01:29:01.770 --> 01:29:03.610
You get the Red Bull.

01:29:07.350 --> 01:29:07.850
Yes.

01:29:07.850 --> 01:29:08.110
All right.

01:29:08.450 --> 01:29:09.510
We got to keep moving.

01:29:09.510 --> 01:29:10.090
Here's the...

01:29:10.090 --> 01:29:10.610
Oh, man.

01:29:10.610 --> 01:29:12.050
We're really dying on time.

01:29:12.070 --> 01:29:14.250
The deal is... Well, that's cool.

01:29:14.250 --> 01:29:15.750
But we got a lot to cover.

01:29:15.750 --> 01:29:17.170
I added a lot of shit.

01:29:18.850 --> 01:29:19.810
WD-40...

01:29:19.810 --> 01:29:24.590
Anybody who's in the service, especially the Navy, maybe you can tell me, what does WD-40 stand for?

01:29:25.250 --> 01:29:27.590
Water displacement is exactly right.

01:29:27.590 --> 01:29:43.170
Water displacer 40 was a formula designed to seep into maritime situations, to seep into all the cracks, to dry out in there, to actually make this little waxy buildup to keep water out of machinery so it didn't rust and corrode when it was in there.

01:29:43.170 --> 01:29:45.590
It was not meant as a lubricant.

01:29:45.590 --> 01:29:47.810
It's kind of the antithesis of a lubricant.

01:29:47.810 --> 01:29:51.050
Yes, it's greasy when it goes in, but it doesn't stay that way.

01:29:51.450 --> 01:29:54.670
There's essentially three kinds of lubricants out there.

01:29:54.670 --> 01:29:58.810
There's wet lubricant, dry lubricant, and drying lubricant.

01:29:58.810 --> 01:30:03.910
And everyone who's tuned in on the APTV system just right now, they're saying, what the hell talk is this?

01:30:03.910 --> 01:30:04.370
Looking at the...

01:30:05.950 --> 01:30:08.070
Did they move the schedule around?

01:30:10.810 --> 01:30:13.570
Different situations call for different products.

01:30:13.570 --> 01:30:23.770
If you have any precision mechanism, like, for instance, locks, you want to use exclusively a wet or oil-based lubricant, something that is going to go in wet and stay wet.

01:30:23.770 --> 01:30:29.150
I use gun oil on most of my really, really high-end locks because it'll not foul the thing up.

01:30:30.350 --> 01:30:36.710
Dirt and fouling can get into oil, and it can gum things up if you live in a really harsh environment.

01:30:36.710 --> 01:30:47.970
If you have, let's say, a lock out in the desert somewhere, Las Vegas , any locals, maybe you want to use graphite powder in a lock like that because it'll go in dry and stay dry.

01:30:48.550 --> 01:30:51.410
It'll help, you know, it won't get too fouled up and gummed up.

01:30:52.010 --> 01:30:53.210
That's right, it won't freeze.

01:30:53.270 --> 01:30:57.410
But just know that WD-40 will attract dirt and fouling.

01:30:57.410 --> 01:30:58.490
It'll trap it up.

01:30:58.490 --> 01:31:06.970
The only time, by the way, the answer, the full answer I was looking for, the only time you use WD-40 is if the lock is jammed and you don't care about the lock.

01:31:07.050 --> 01:31:13.030
If, you know, you've gone over to your aunt's house for Christmas and she says, oh, I think that's the trees out in the shed, the decorations.

01:31:13.030 --> 01:31:17.670
And you go out there and it's a lock that someone hasn't opened since 1974 and it's rusted to hell.

01:31:17.770 --> 01:31:26.650
Yeah, you can WD-40 it or you can soak it in kerosene and maybe it'll open and then you throw the lock away because it's not, that's not good for the future health of the lock.

01:31:27.810 --> 01:31:28.530
Yes?

01:31:31.750 --> 01:31:33.130
LPS makes a good product?

01:31:33.130 --> 01:31:34.050
What is LPS?

01:31:46.290 --> 01:31:47.010
Okay.

01:31:48.030 --> 01:31:53.430
So yeah, he meant, the gentleman mentions industrial lubricants, high-end industrial lubricants are good.

01:31:54.110 --> 01:31:58.050
Yeah, Google for LPS or check it out, Molly Coat, those are also good.

01:31:59.290 --> 01:32:02.950
Let's talk about something that was referenced in the last talk.

01:32:04.130 --> 01:32:05.270
Firearm locks.

01:32:05.270 --> 01:32:09.610
How many, we got a lot of libertarian type people here at DEF CON, how many people are gun owners?

01:32:10.010 --> 01:32:11.710
You don't have to raise your hands if you don't want to.

01:32:12.150 --> 01:32:14.990
How many people lock your guns in some fashion?

01:32:16.370 --> 01:32:21.050
What I'd like to see, maybe you don't have kids in the house, you don't have kids in your house, then you lock your door.

01:32:21.050 --> 01:32:22.330
Do super soakers count?

01:32:24.750 --> 01:32:38.030
We're going to talk about something that's very serious to me right now, just because it's a very important issue that people understand, the severe weaknesses of some locks, what they're designed to do, and what they're not designed to do.

01:32:38.550 --> 01:32:44.910
I would like a volunteer, I know we have people on the goon squad, I know in fact Vairosa, you have time in the service.

01:32:45.370 --> 01:32:46.650
Stand up for a second, man.

01:32:46.650 --> 01:32:47.750
I'm going to use Lou.

01:32:48.130 --> 01:32:49.750
Everyone, this is Vairosa.

01:32:51.050 --> 01:32:52.690
Come on, stand up for the guy.

01:32:56.170 --> 01:32:59.990
Vairosa has served, so he's going to be our authority for today.

01:32:59.990 --> 01:33:12.270
I'd like, and this is for everyone's comfort, he's going to inspect a stage prop that I have that looks like a weapon, but we're going to take him at his authority that it is not a functioning firearm.

01:33:12.390 --> 01:33:15.090
I want everyone to know this, I want everyone to be very...

01:33:15.090 --> 01:33:16.930
Yeah, you haven't anything to drink, have you?

01:33:17.810 --> 01:33:22.630
Is everyone comfortable with his authority as opposed to you physically inspecting it yourself?

01:33:22.630 --> 01:33:28.710
If not, we can actually have someone else who is even more well known, if you'd like a priest or someone to come up.

01:33:28.710 --> 01:33:30.210
But is everyone okay with Vairosa?

01:33:31.010 --> 01:33:31.690
Alright.

01:33:35.190 --> 01:33:38.110
Yeah, it really pisses off the TSA when you put that in your carry-on, by the way.

01:33:38.150 --> 01:33:39.310
Yeah, FedEx.

01:33:40.270 --> 01:33:44.510
So yeah, it should be a filed down firing pin, the barrel's solid.

01:33:45.030 --> 01:33:46.690
Solid barrel will pretty much do the job.

01:33:46.690 --> 01:33:47.250
Yeah.

01:33:48.450 --> 01:33:50.990
Would you care to certify that this is a non-firing weapon?

01:33:51.490 --> 01:33:52.930
I didn't see that it's non-firing.

01:33:52.930 --> 01:33:55.210
There's nothing in it.

01:33:55.250 --> 01:33:57.250
It's completely cored up.

01:33:59.310 --> 01:34:00.590
It's a solid barrel.

01:34:05.000 --> 01:34:06.020
I don't know if you can see...

01:34:06.680 --> 01:34:07.200
Dude , don't worry.

01:34:07.280 --> 01:34:07.740
Alright.

01:34:07.740 --> 01:34:09.860
Well, I'm just very serious about this.

01:34:11.140 --> 01:34:11.940
Thank you.

01:34:11.940 --> 01:34:12.580
Thank you.

01:34:25.500 --> 01:34:29.900
How many people have ever used a trigger lock that looks like this?

01:34:31.120 --> 01:34:33.560
I'm very pleased that not too many people have.

01:34:33.960 --> 01:34:44.380
When I was... God, I want to say I was 12 or 13, I got an air gun for my birthday, and a lock like this is what was installed on it.

01:34:44.380 --> 01:34:50.220
I'm going to guess I was probably about 14 when I figured out how easy it was to bust this up.

01:34:50.860 --> 01:34:54.160
And my parents were very proud that I actually was just so proud of the discovery.

01:34:54.160 --> 01:34:55.200
I went and showed them right away.

01:34:55.200 --> 01:34:56.860
They're like, wow, that's so neat.

01:34:56.960 --> 01:34:58.560
This goes in our closet now.

01:35:07.900 --> 01:35:13.640
This is your typical trigger lock.

01:35:15.280 --> 01:35:21.560
Most vendors of trigger locks, there are two popular designs of trigger locks.

01:35:21.580 --> 01:35:24.560
There are bad, and there's colossally bad.

01:35:25.340 --> 01:35:28.240
Pretty much everyone explores these two designs of locks.

01:35:29.200 --> 01:35:31.680
This is just in the bad category.

01:35:33.600 --> 01:35:34.580
Can everyone see?

01:35:34.580 --> 01:35:35.340
I feel bad.

01:35:35.340 --> 01:35:36.980
This camera is so awful.

01:35:36.980 --> 01:35:37.640
It's not bad.

01:35:37.640 --> 01:35:38.060
No, you can see pretty good.

01:35:38.060 --> 01:35:39.420
Alright, we'll do what we can.

01:35:39.680 --> 01:35:40.500
So this is on.

01:35:40.500 --> 01:35:42.620
It's installed the way it should go.

01:35:43.320 --> 01:35:44.740
I'm going to take this tool

01:35:48.000 --> 01:35:50.080
and I can't really see.

01:35:52.660 --> 01:35:53.260
I'm going to have to...

01:35:53.260 --> 01:35:57.500
I've got to move my camera so I can see what I'm doing a little better and get my hands in it.

01:36:01.460 --> 01:36:03.520
It's upside down, but you guys can live with that.

01:36:06.520 --> 01:36:07.600
Oh, am I out of frame?

01:36:09.820 --> 01:36:12.880
For anyone who thinks he's out of frame, he's shoving a big-ass piece of metal in there.

01:36:18.780 --> 01:36:20.700
Yeah, we don't have to applaud on that one.

01:36:23.240 --> 01:36:25.480
This is a piece of wire, people.

01:36:25.520 --> 01:36:27.860
This is a piece of fish snake.

01:36:28.340 --> 01:36:29.300
There's a question?

01:36:33.280 --> 01:36:36.760
I wouldn't recommend trying it on a loaded weapon, that's for sure.

01:36:40.680 --> 01:36:44.160
Right, you're never supposed to lock a loaded weapon, people are pointing out to me.

01:36:44.160 --> 01:36:46.000
Side note for you though, on that specific weapon, no.

01:36:46.000 --> 01:36:46.920
On others, maybe.

01:36:48.020 --> 01:36:52.240
Why in the hell is this possible?

01:36:54.200 --> 01:36:57.040
Once again, the golden rule, the...

01:36:57.040 --> 01:36:58.340
I'm sorry.

01:36:59.340 --> 01:37:02.800
Yeah, keep shouting at me if I'm out of frame, because I want you guys to see everything.

01:37:03.000 --> 01:37:11.180
The golden rule of, you know, the triumph and peril of our capitalistic system is that the marketplace will regulate itself.

01:37:12.160 --> 01:37:15.360
One of the marketplace forces is convenience, users' convenience.

01:37:15.740 --> 01:37:16.960
How does this lock work?

01:37:16.960 --> 01:37:24.440
Well, this lock just has a pillar down the middle, as you can see, and a bar that rotates.

01:37:24.440 --> 01:37:24.890
Now this bar...

01:37:25.520 --> 01:37:27.940
I wonder if I could focus this a little more.

01:37:29.720 --> 01:37:31.160
Nope, that's worse.

01:37:32.780 --> 01:37:33.780
I'll take my word for it.

01:37:33.780 --> 01:37:36.980
This bar, you can kind of see, has little teeth, notched teeth.

01:37:37.720 --> 01:37:41.920
Now these teeth are exposed, and now these teeth are hidden.

01:37:43.200 --> 01:37:54.320
Those teeth completely engage with teeth that you can barely see down a steel plate, down this barrel here.

01:37:56.040 --> 01:38:00.560
This steel plate is spring-loaded.

01:38:04.400 --> 01:38:05.420
Why is that?

01:38:05.420 --> 01:38:06.900
The man points it out.

01:38:06.900 --> 01:38:15.400
So that if I want to lock this, and I don't have the key in it, I can just slide it together.

01:38:16.340 --> 01:38:25.600
Do you know how fucking ridiculously simple it would be to make this steel plate solid?

01:38:25.840 --> 01:38:29.680
Just make the bastard part of... you wouldn't even need the spring.

01:38:30.820 --> 01:38:34.460
Just, you know, oh, I need to turn my key to lock it and secure it.

01:38:34.460 --> 01:38:35.620
I'm out of frame again.

01:38:35.760 --> 01:38:38.940
I can't fathom why it was designed this way.

01:38:39.040 --> 01:38:40.260
But it was.

01:38:41.280 --> 01:38:42.620
This is not...

01:38:43.540 --> 01:38:44.480
This is nothing.

01:38:44.480 --> 01:38:45.800
This is just a joke.

01:38:46.140 --> 01:38:47.460
I made this in no time.

01:38:47.460 --> 01:38:50.100
I made this type of pick when I was 12.

01:38:50.420 --> 01:38:53.340
They mentioned in the last talk, this information is out there.

01:38:53.340 --> 01:38:54.680
How many of you have ever read about this?

01:38:54.680 --> 01:38:56.200
How many of you have ever heard about this?

01:38:56.200 --> 01:38:59.420
How many of you still use a lock, you know, a gun lock like this?

01:38:59.940 --> 01:39:03.380
Nobody talks about this, because the information just doesn't get out.

01:39:03.880 --> 01:39:10.820
I hope that if at least one of you goes home and tells somebody, maybe someone will stop using one of these, because it's really bad.

01:39:10.820 --> 01:39:12.640
It's just a really bad design.

01:39:16.930 --> 01:39:19.170
In the colossal... I'm sorry, we had a hand.

01:39:19.570 --> 01:39:20.310
All right.

01:39:23.450 --> 01:39:25.650
Who manufactures the blue lock was a question.

01:39:25.650 --> 01:39:29.830
They are somebody I've beat up enough on on this talk already.

01:39:31.010 --> 01:39:35.810
They're kind of litigious and I'm not going to say who makes it.

01:39:35.850 --> 01:39:37.810
Go to any gun shop in America.

01:39:37.810 --> 01:39:38.810
They're going to have a whole rack of them.

01:39:38.810 --> 01:39:40.070
You can see who makes it.

01:39:41.910 --> 01:39:43.130
Somebody said it.

01:39:44.730 --> 01:39:50.270
These are the, just included for your edification, these are the colossally bad category.

01:39:51.510 --> 01:39:53.170
What the hell is that?

01:39:54.050 --> 01:39:55.990
I don't even know what this is.

01:39:56.430 --> 01:39:58.210
But it's not a freaking lock.

01:39:58.290 --> 01:40:02.550
You can beat this with a paper clip that you have to pop a CD out of a jam drive.

01:40:05.400 --> 01:40:07.320
And we saw this is a slide lock.

01:40:07.320 --> 01:40:11.320
This is what I was showing you earlier when I was playing with tubular pins.

01:40:11.500 --> 01:40:13.420
A slide lock is a very nice idea.

01:40:13.420 --> 01:40:19.220
It's a little more secure in that it locks the weapon completely out of battery, so it can't be engaged, fired, anything.

01:40:19.420 --> 01:40:21.240
But, you know, I showed you this one.

01:40:21.240 --> 01:40:25.680
Great concept, but it's a really shitty tubular lock that's employing the mechanism.

01:40:25.920 --> 01:40:29.740
Put a better lock on the end and maybe put a Medeco on the end of that and you might have a pretty decent lock.

01:40:32.160 --> 01:40:33.920
Some people just use cable.

01:40:33.920 --> 01:40:35.860
You can secure firearms with cable.

01:40:35.980 --> 01:40:38.200
This is a very secure solution.

01:40:38.440 --> 01:40:41.640
Make sure you use a coated cable so it doesn't rip up the innards of your gun.

01:40:42.020 --> 01:40:49.340
Also, be aware that the majority of cable you're going to buy like this, this is going to be an Astacular 2000 series lock somehow.

01:40:49.660 --> 01:40:51.640
They just come really bad.

01:40:51.640 --> 01:40:52.680
I don't know why.

01:40:53.060 --> 01:40:54.800
And let's face it, this is not the best solution.

01:40:54.800 --> 01:40:56.600
It's a very inelegant solution.

01:40:57.680 --> 01:41:00.740
In general, why do I have this section in the talk now?

01:41:01.700 --> 01:41:02.060
Everyone...

01:41:02.060 --> 01:41:07.360
I think people here tend to be a little more clueful than the general public, so most of you should know this already.

01:41:07.380 --> 01:41:10.060
These are not security devices.

01:41:10.280 --> 01:41:14.280
These are persuading or dissuading devices.

01:41:14.280 --> 01:41:19.420
These are designed to prevent very little children from fouling around.

01:41:19.420 --> 01:41:20.960
Oh, what's under daddy's drawer?

01:41:20.960 --> 01:41:22.460
Here, they'll look at this.

01:41:22.460 --> 01:41:23.540
These are designed to...

01:41:23.540 --> 01:41:26.540
These are locks made by children for children, basically.

01:41:28.100 --> 01:41:30.880
This will not thwart criminal behavior.

01:41:30.880 --> 01:41:34.260
This will not thwart a curious teenager.

01:41:35.100 --> 01:41:45.720
Many people, I don't always get agreement with this, but I'm betting this crowd will understand that if you have kids and you have guns, you show them what the hell they are when they're very young.

01:41:45.720 --> 01:41:51.260
You teach them to respect them, you teach them not to play with them, and then you lock them the hell away from them.

01:42:00.160 --> 01:42:04.320
But people who just want to, like, no, don't tell them anything, that's not the best solution.

01:42:04.900 --> 01:42:05.860
What's up?

01:42:07.440 --> 01:42:08.900
Oh, sorry, question.

01:42:15.060 --> 01:42:15.780
That's a valid...

01:42:15.780 --> 01:42:22.120
If you have a very easily field-strippable weapon, just strip it out, take the firing pin out, put that in a secure place.

01:42:23.680 --> 01:42:25.660
Well, the man makes a point down here.

01:42:25.660 --> 01:42:28.180
Someone else could acquire another one and put it back in.

01:42:28.240 --> 01:42:33.080
So, you know, you guys are all smart enough, you can come up with solutions, but just keep this on your radar.

01:42:33.080 --> 01:42:35.280
One question and then we gotta keep it on...

01:42:41.610 --> 01:42:42.330
Yes.

01:42:45.190 --> 01:42:47.690
Those are the under desk type models, and yeah.

01:42:49.010 --> 01:42:53.010
Yeah, he mentioned the Colt Corporation, and I do love their weapons.

01:42:53.070 --> 01:43:04.530
They make a very nice box that it just has, it's almost like a hand pad, and you can feel the buttons, and if you know the order, you program the order in, you can just feel it pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, and then you can, you know, open it up.

01:43:04.710 --> 01:43:10.810
Any type of safe, or any type of box that you put a gun in is much better than just throwing a lock on the gun.

01:43:14.120 --> 01:43:18.120
Yeah, there's a lot of better gun locks out there that we can talk about some more.

01:43:18.480 --> 01:43:23.320
We're good, we still have like 45 minutes because we're rolling into the next half hour, so we can, we're still doing alright.

01:43:24.500 --> 01:43:26.300
Quick ones on handcuffs.

01:43:26.680 --> 01:43:30.000
We're, you know, more for the law enforcement crowd, I guess, guns to handcuffs.

01:43:30.720 --> 01:43:35.200
Anybody who doesn't know how handcuffs work, this is gonna be a real real brief overview.

01:43:35.640 --> 01:43:37.820
Inside of a handcuff looks something like this.

01:43:37.820 --> 01:43:44.380
You have a little ratcheting arm, and this paw that spins around has teeth on it that the arm engages.

01:43:45.180 --> 01:43:47.780
It's why you can spin the paw one way and not the other.

01:43:49.060 --> 01:43:56.340
When you stick a key in the lock, and you turn that key, it just lifts up the arm.

01:43:56.340 --> 01:43:58.860
That's what the inside of a handcuff looks like.

01:43:59.300 --> 01:44:03.760
You can see how it's, you can jam almost anything in a handcuff and just try to, you know, flip the thing.

01:44:03.760 --> 01:44:07.080
And besides, a handcuff key is a dollar, so it's not that hard to do.

01:44:07.080 --> 01:44:10.520
You can shim hand, you can do a whole lot with handcuffs that are kind of outside of the scope of this.

01:44:10.520 --> 01:44:14.060
We can, I don't have any to play with, so if anybody else does, we can play with them later.

01:44:17.600 --> 01:44:17.880
Um...

01:44:18.560 --> 01:44:21.220
That could have been interpreted differently, I guess.

01:44:24.200 --> 01:44:32.480
Could anyone tell me for a Red Bull... I gotta clear some of this out of the way.

01:44:35.520 --> 01:44:39.660
What is the little pin for on the back of a hand?

01:44:39.660 --> 01:44:41.140
I saw a hand right here.

01:44:47.450 --> 01:44:48.490
Everything alright?

01:44:49.070 --> 01:44:50.390
Hang on, yeah, he got it.

01:44:50.390 --> 01:44:52.790
The answer is, what is the little pin for?

01:44:52.790 --> 01:44:56.130
It is a double lock mechanism on a handcuff.

01:44:57.150 --> 01:45:08.930
The little hole that's on the back of a handcuff, that most people don't realize it's there for a reason, if you stick the pin in there on the back of a key, it'll actually put a bar in that prevents the pawl from I'm sorry, the ratchet from moving at all.

01:45:08.930 --> 01:45:12.230
So it can't get any tighter, it can't get any looser, you can't shim it.

01:45:12.430 --> 01:45:15.750
To open it, you see it's actually a two-step process to open it.

01:45:21.320 --> 01:45:23.080
Yeah, yeah, double lock.

01:45:23.080 --> 01:45:30.900
In fact, anybody who's ever been in custody, maybe in a street protest or something, and they over-tighten you on purpose, but no, I don't have anything negative to say about that.

01:45:31.800 --> 01:45:35.780
They're supposed to double lock you all the time, because it's actually for your own safety.

01:45:35.780 --> 01:45:40.560
So the cuffs, if you wriggle or you sit in the back of the car, they don't get tighter on you when you're in them.

01:45:40.820 --> 01:45:46.760
Most officers don't do that, and it's, you know, I assume you should.

01:45:46.760 --> 01:45:47.700
Does anyone here a cop?

01:45:47.700 --> 01:45:48.440
Do you do that?

01:45:48.540 --> 01:45:50.980
Anybody in here who's a law enforcement officer do a double lock?

01:45:52.820 --> 01:45:55.460
So we spot the fed.

01:45:59.380 --> 01:46:00.400
Yeah, they should.

01:46:00.580 --> 01:46:03.440
Frankly, it's funny, but that's true.

01:46:03.440 --> 01:46:06.660
Most of my friends who go to protests will request that.

01:46:06.660 --> 01:46:09.880
They'll say, you know, I request, please make sure you double lock this, sir.

01:46:10.100 --> 01:46:17.740
And so they don't get, because if you've ever friggin' been cuffed at a protest, you're going to be thrown in a bus somewhere for like six hours, and they're going to take two more hours to process you.

01:46:17.740 --> 01:46:21.060
If you're turning blue in the hands, it sucks really bad.

01:46:23.780 --> 01:46:24.460
Yes.

01:46:25.660 --> 01:46:26.620
Yeah.

01:46:34.750 --> 01:46:40.750
Yes, the gentleman makes the point that cooperating tends to, you'll be treated a lot better when they're locking you up.

01:46:43.710 --> 01:46:45.430
Oh, we're going to get a demo?

01:46:45.510 --> 01:46:46.770
All right.

01:46:56.710 --> 01:47:01.610
Once again, Agent X, everybody, let's thank him for doing this.

01:47:49.080 --> 01:47:50.420
Have you done this?

01:47:51.120 --> 01:47:52.640
Never slammed them against a table.

01:47:55.950 --> 01:47:56.830
Yeah!

01:48:09.420 --> 01:48:16.040
The trick is that, like you talked about all the mechanisms inside, you've got to whack this, and it'll just slide.

01:48:16.820 --> 01:48:20.340
And most of the cops are really good about keeping their kit well-oiled.

01:48:20.660 --> 01:48:22.420
There's even special handcuff oils.

01:48:22.620 --> 01:48:29.960
So, you have to whack it somewhere, which you'll see magicians do, is they'll put like a little metal piece of something in their pants, and they'll whack it against that.

01:48:30.660 --> 01:48:33.200
But usually you can find something to do it against.

01:48:33.260 --> 01:48:35.360
I find the hardest part is getting them in front.

01:48:35.360 --> 01:48:36.500
It'll kill you.

01:48:36.920 --> 01:48:38.120
That's really dangerous.

01:48:38.120 --> 01:48:45.160
I've gotten myself, by myself, in my apartment, with these, at the end of my seat.

01:48:45.440 --> 01:48:47.240
It's incredibly painful.

01:48:48.320 --> 01:48:49.920
Why were you wearing a thong?

01:48:49.920 --> 01:48:51.140
I wasn't wearing a thong.

01:48:51.140 --> 01:48:53.560
Have you taken that off?

01:49:07.880 --> 01:49:08.600
Yeah, yeah.

01:49:17.420 --> 01:49:20.700
He's showing whereabouts he whacked it, according to the request.

01:49:21.020 --> 01:49:23.040
Here's the handcuffs.

01:49:24.700 --> 01:49:27.240
And this is the pin they set right there.

01:49:27.380 --> 01:49:28.980
You can see it right there.

01:49:29.520 --> 01:49:32.360
So, what I'm doing is unsetting the pin.

01:49:32.360 --> 01:49:35.820
They have to turn the key both ways, so what you do is just go, whack!

01:49:36.040 --> 01:49:39.620
And it comes right down, and then you can shim it.

01:49:39.620 --> 01:49:42.180
Don't shim it too much, or it's really painful.

01:49:43.580 --> 01:49:47.100
If you do that while in custody, you're fucked, by the way, unless you get away.

01:49:47.740 --> 01:49:48.980
Don't fuck around.

01:49:49.260 --> 01:49:55.740
We're having fun talking about a lot of this, but more than anything, don't be that cutesy guy who's getting out of the squad car at the station.

01:50:00.820 --> 01:50:02.040
Yeah, Mr.

01:50:02.040 --> 01:50:03.060
Face, meet Mr.

01:50:03.080 --> 01:50:03.800
Pavement.

01:50:04.980 --> 01:50:07.220
It's funny if your friends are cops to fuck with them, though.

01:50:07.220 --> 01:50:08.000
It really is.

01:50:08.000 --> 01:50:14.440
By the way, if you show this to the cops, it freaks them out.

01:50:14.760 --> 01:50:19.020
The main reason I learned this is not because I ever have trouble with the law.

01:50:19.080 --> 01:50:20.820
It's because this is really a mental thing.

01:50:20.820 --> 01:50:22.600
People are like, I can't get out of handcuffs.

01:50:22.600 --> 01:50:23.580
It's impossible.

01:50:23.860 --> 01:50:25.040
I can show you how to do it.

01:50:25.040 --> 01:50:26.200
It's not that hard.

01:50:26.940 --> 01:50:28.720
It's kind of a gateless barrier thing.

01:50:29.040 --> 01:50:29.800
Give it a try.

01:50:36.320 --> 01:50:38.720
Come to the THF talk at 4 in the tent.

01:50:38.720 --> 01:50:39.560
We need your money.

01:50:40.820 --> 01:50:41.980
And we're going to have a whole...

01:50:41.980 --> 01:50:45.960
Once we wrap this up, we're going to move it into the contest area where the lockpick contest is.

01:50:45.960 --> 01:50:47.860
We're going to do a whole hands-on session.

01:50:48.020 --> 01:50:49.620
I'll take as much time as you guys want.

01:50:49.620 --> 01:50:51.480
I'm going to have a lot of kits you can play with.

01:50:51.760 --> 01:50:54.540
I ask that you give me $20-$25.

01:50:54.540 --> 01:50:56.680
And if you return it, you can have the $25.

01:50:56.720 --> 01:50:58.280
But I don't want them to walk away.

01:50:58.460 --> 01:50:59.280
A lot of locks.

01:50:59.280 --> 01:51:00.580
We're going to have a good time.

01:51:00.580 --> 01:51:02.760
So come on in if we run out of time here for questions.

01:51:02.780 --> 01:51:03.840
We'll do it in there.

01:51:06.700 --> 01:51:08.560
Can you carry a lockpick in your check bag?

01:51:08.560 --> 01:51:10.240
I'll talk about that in the legal section.

01:51:10.480 --> 01:51:11.700
Do you have a legal section?

01:51:11.740 --> 01:51:13.060
Dude, you really did add a lot of shit.

01:51:14.020 --> 01:51:15.780
Alright, we've really got to fly through.

01:51:15.780 --> 01:51:17.180
We've got about a half hour left.

01:51:17.220 --> 01:51:18.960
And I have like 150 slides.

01:51:18.960 --> 01:51:20.600
So we're maybe two-thirds of the way through.

01:51:22.460 --> 01:51:23.380
Really quick.

01:51:23.380 --> 01:51:24.340
Wafer locks.

01:51:24.540 --> 01:51:26.280
Just going to cover what they are.

01:51:26.520 --> 01:51:27.880
They're not that sophisticated.

01:51:27.900 --> 01:51:29.040
Oh, what happened?

01:51:29.440 --> 01:51:31.780
Is there another cooler talk than me?

01:51:36.350 --> 01:51:39.110
Imagine when we do the topless section for all you guys leaving.

01:51:39.250 --> 01:51:41.870
Alright, let's just blow through a lot of this now.

01:51:42.010 --> 01:51:42.990
Wafer locks.

01:51:42.990 --> 01:51:49.110
If you look at a lock, notice how this lock, there's no upper mechanism up here.

01:51:49.170 --> 01:51:51.270
This lock just kind of cuts off right here.

01:51:51.270 --> 01:51:54.570
There's no space where a pin stack could be hiding.

01:51:54.570 --> 01:51:56.950
There's no room up here for springs and pins.

01:51:57.050 --> 01:51:58.990
This is an entirely different type of mechanism.

01:51:58.990 --> 01:52:00.470
It's called a wafer mechanism.

01:52:00.570 --> 01:52:03.290
They're popular in very compact places.

01:52:03.290 --> 01:52:07.510
A lot of filing cabinets, a lot of display racks and things use wafer locks.

01:52:07.510 --> 01:52:09.870
Also automobiles, but they're more sophisticated.

01:52:11.230 --> 01:52:12.250
Not alone.

01:52:12.510 --> 01:52:19.070
If you look at a wafer from the front, and you cut on into it, this is the inside of a wafer lock, essentially.

01:52:19.070 --> 01:52:21.590
And there's stacks of these wafers in a row.

01:52:21.950 --> 01:52:24.850
The wafers have to be raised to the right height, and they'll clear.

01:52:24.850 --> 01:52:26.250
It's not that difficult.

01:52:26.950 --> 01:52:29.630
There are complex wafers that are double-sided.

01:52:29.630 --> 01:52:31.690
You can see if you raise them too high, they won't go.

01:52:31.690 --> 01:52:32.990
Too low, they won't go.

01:52:33.110 --> 01:52:37.810
And all they'll have to do is just have this rectangle cut in different places on the wafer.

01:52:37.810 --> 01:52:39.570
So that's how the key cutting works.

01:52:39.970 --> 01:52:42.850
Wafers are a really interesting sort of mix.

01:52:43.050 --> 01:52:49.390
They're very unsophisticated, but they don't lend themselves very well to most picking techniques.

01:52:49.730 --> 01:52:52.090
You can kind of pin-by-pin pick them, right?

01:52:52.090 --> 01:52:54.570
But most people just use what's called jigglers.

01:52:54.650 --> 01:52:57.990
And you just jam it in, bang it all around, and hope for the best.

01:52:57.990 --> 01:53:02.110
And you get about as good a result as you would get if you just tried to individually pick it.

01:53:05.290 --> 01:53:10.970
Yeah, raking, jiggling, the unsophisticated bang attack ends up a lot better.

01:53:11.790 --> 01:53:13.390
Alright, still moving along.

01:53:13.590 --> 01:53:15.050
Rotating disc locks.

01:53:15.050 --> 01:53:17.750
Not going to talk too much about these, because I can't pick them.

01:53:17.750 --> 01:53:18.770
I don't even own some.

01:53:18.770 --> 01:53:19.670
Anything you want to say?

01:53:19.670 --> 01:53:21.710
Or should we just show Barry and you doing a video?

01:53:22.470 --> 01:53:23.170
Show a video?

01:53:23.170 --> 01:53:24.290
I was drunk that day.

01:53:24.490 --> 01:53:27.210
If you have any questions...

01:53:27.210 --> 01:53:29.390
There's this brand called Abus.

01:53:29.790 --> 01:53:31.370
As a side note...

01:53:31.370 --> 01:53:33.270
Yeah, so this is the fucking video of me on the other side.

01:53:33.270 --> 01:53:34.230
He didn't tell me.

01:53:36.950 --> 01:53:39.810
Schedule, if you look at your schedule, there were two talks today.

01:53:39.810 --> 01:53:43.490
First is two hour intro, then another hour on high security stuff specifically.

01:53:43.490 --> 01:53:47.470
Due to some scheduling conflicts, the high security stuff was cut down to about a half an hour.

01:53:47.490 --> 01:53:49.110
And Paul Graham will be coming and giving a speech.

01:53:49.110 --> 01:53:50.890
And we'll go through all that right before we're done.

01:53:51.090 --> 01:53:54.650
So just for anyone who has high security questions, hold it off until a little bit later.

01:53:54.910 --> 01:53:56.610
This is real quick though, just showing you.

01:53:56.610 --> 01:54:01.470
And they had on their website this very challenging text saying, nobody can pick our locks.

01:54:01.470 --> 01:54:06.710
No locksmith, no test institute, no burglars are ever known to pick our locks.

01:54:06.950 --> 01:54:09.830
And this is actually the type of key...

01:54:09.830 --> 01:54:10.730
Okay.

01:54:10.730 --> 01:54:11.690
Okay.

01:54:13.270 --> 01:54:16.530
Don't you love when someone says it's impossible?

01:54:16.610 --> 01:54:19.190
Isn't that just so great when you prove them wrong?

01:54:21.130 --> 01:54:22.370
Okay.

01:54:23.530 --> 01:54:24.290
In focus.

01:54:24.290 --> 01:54:25.810
Hope everybody can see.

01:54:26.110 --> 01:54:30.670
In Germany, from my German lockpicking friends, I bought this tool.

01:54:32.830 --> 01:54:34.450
Nobody leave.

01:54:34.510 --> 01:54:36.960
And it's this tool.

01:54:38.500 --> 01:54:41.220
And it's called the Fall tool, because Mr.

01:54:41.220 --> 01:54:43.160
Fall made it.

01:54:43.160 --> 01:54:45.480
And it's a decoder pick.

01:54:45.480 --> 01:54:48.900
It picks the lock, but it also reads the lock.

01:54:48.900 --> 01:54:50.540
So you can make the key.

01:54:50.560 --> 01:54:57.940
Here you can see what pin you are picking.

01:54:57.940 --> 01:55:02.020
And here you can see the depth of the key.

01:55:02.680 --> 01:55:08.660
With this tool you can open the lock that they claimed on their website could not be picked.

01:55:08.840 --> 01:55:11.760
It was a real challenge for us to pick it.

01:55:13.180 --> 01:55:17.820
What they do with this lock is they have discs in the lock.

01:55:17.820 --> 01:55:19.620
There's no pins but discs.

01:55:19.860 --> 01:55:22.340
I'll just show you a few of these discs.

01:55:22.340 --> 01:55:24.500
I hope

01:55:28.940 --> 01:55:30.260
I'm in focus.

01:55:36.620 --> 01:55:42.060
Okay, well here you can see the discs that are inside.

01:55:42.200 --> 01:55:44.220
And here's the real notch.

01:55:44.220 --> 01:55:47.040
And they put some fake notches in as well.

01:55:47.160 --> 01:55:54.420
So when you start manipulating the lock you'll experience like it's in the right position.

01:55:54.420 --> 01:55:56.080
But it's actually not.

01:55:56.080 --> 01:56:02.080
And it took us quite a while to figure out how to actually pick this lock because of the false notches.

01:56:02.460 --> 01:56:11.960
And then Paul, Paul Crowell from Montelus, he found out that there's a technique that if you put the pick in the lock.

01:56:20.060 --> 01:56:22.380
Wow, that's a big thumb.

01:56:26.360 --> 01:56:34.860
Okay, now I'm at the first disc and I'm trying to feel the cuts.

01:56:34.860 --> 01:56:36.040
Here's one cut.

01:56:36.680 --> 01:56:37.040
Go

01:56:40.140 --> 01:56:41.860
to disc two.

01:56:47.890 --> 01:56:50.250
How many discs are usually in there?

01:56:50.270 --> 01:56:51.330
Like eight.

01:56:55.170 --> 01:56:57.630
I should have cut this video down, I apologize.

01:56:57.810 --> 01:56:59.390
It's possible to get a false cut.

01:56:59.670 --> 01:57:05.710
Now, what Paul found out about these false cuts is that they are actually just a little bit tighter.

01:57:05.710 --> 01:57:07.770
So what you do is you go to one disc.

01:57:07.950 --> 01:57:10.250
You feel hey, okay, it's getting.

01:57:10.350 --> 01:57:11.890
And you feel it's getting again.

01:57:12.210 --> 01:57:19.130
And you just go for the widest you just go from one point of the cut to the other.

01:57:19.130 --> 01:57:21.650
And the widest is the right cut.

01:57:21.910 --> 01:57:23.650
And that actually was the trick.

01:57:23.650 --> 01:57:28.390
You have to feel the cuts.

01:57:29.690 --> 01:57:30.750
Okay, it's open.

01:57:31.470 --> 01:57:32.570
Applause.

01:57:44.070 --> 01:57:46.950
Abes made an improvement on the lock.

01:57:46.950 --> 01:57:52.610
So that this tool actually only works at a certain range of their locks.

01:57:52.610 --> 01:57:57.570
But the people from the German sport group they made a tool that beats that.

01:57:58.570 --> 01:58:02.790
At this moment there is a negotiation with Abes what to do.

01:58:03.670 --> 01:58:11.130
But when Abes they just had to take the text down and now you read our locks are really secure and very hard to pick.

01:58:11.270 --> 01:58:14.630
They don't say it's impossible to pick anymore.

01:58:17.490 --> 01:58:19.590
So that's rotating discs.

01:58:19.850 --> 01:58:21.410
Gotta really keep moving here.

01:58:21.410 --> 01:58:23.210
Alright, Master Keying Theory.

01:58:23.210 --> 01:58:26.390
Once again, how many people were in the last talk with Mark and Matt?

01:58:26.570 --> 01:58:31.290
So they mentioned that there was a big fuss about this.

01:58:31.290 --> 01:58:34.350
About, oh why are people disclosing these secrets?

01:58:34.350 --> 01:58:39.910
This has been known to people all over for a long time but it's just not talked about publicly that often.

01:58:41.190 --> 01:58:47.870
Master Locks, Master not the brand but you know Master Systems where there's different levels of escalated privilege.

01:58:47.870 --> 01:58:53.290
That's achieved by an additional wafer or an additional pin in the stack.

01:58:53.610 --> 01:58:56.750
It's a standard stack but it just has more pins.

01:58:56.950 --> 01:59:00.510
So a Master Pinned Lock might look something like this.

01:59:00.510 --> 01:59:04.270
I say might because there's a couple types of Mastering Conventions.

01:59:04.890 --> 01:59:10.090
For a Red Bull, a lighter and one of those hard drives do we have any more frack?

01:59:10.090 --> 01:59:11.330
No, no more frack.

01:59:11.330 --> 01:59:17.870
Can anyone tell me which of the two Master Pinning Systems which type this is?

01:59:19.010 --> 01:59:20.030
No one.

01:59:20.130 --> 01:59:20.890
Silence.

01:59:20.990 --> 01:59:21.890
Can you tell me?

01:59:22.010 --> 01:59:23.410
I don't know what the fuck the question means.

01:59:23.410 --> 01:59:24.390
I know a lot about this stuff.

01:59:24.390 --> 01:59:28.870
Well there are, this is what's called TPP or Total Position Progression Master.

01:59:28.870 --> 01:59:33.030
There's another type called RC or Rotating Constant which is a different algorithm.

01:59:33.170 --> 01:59:33.850
Oh well.

01:59:33.950 --> 01:59:37.710
I'll just give some, whoever can ask me cool questions at the end, I'll give you hard drives for that.

01:59:37.830 --> 01:59:38.570
Can I have one?

01:59:38.810 --> 01:59:39.570
Yeah, sure.

01:59:40.170 --> 01:59:50.150
Alright, so Master you can see how let's see, you might have a user with the lowest end of the totem pole is just called a change key.

01:59:50.330 --> 01:59:52.790
That's you know, just will open this one lock.

01:59:53.310 --> 01:59:55.410
But you might have a master key.

01:59:55.410 --> 01:59:59.010
If you have a key, now this is obviously very exaggerated.

01:59:59.190 --> 02:00:03.150
If you have a master cut key, these red pins are different.

02:00:03.150 --> 02:00:05.730
These shear lines are different throughout every lock.

02:00:05.730 --> 02:00:09.910
But the combination of a red and a green, and you know these aren't the real colors.

02:00:09.910 --> 02:00:17.890
The combination of the key pin and a master pin together, that is universal throughout all the locks in let's say one facility.

02:00:17.930 --> 02:00:24.610
So a master key would always be able to find this shear line no matter what lock was in what door.

02:00:24.610 --> 02:00:28.470
Whereas a person's change key would only work on their door.

02:00:29.410 --> 02:00:44.070
However, and many of us who had college dorms with master keyed systems played with this, there is a very, very simple way that if you have any key that works in the system, you can very easily make a master key.

02:00:44.670 --> 02:00:45.510
Sometimes.

02:00:45.670 --> 02:00:47.230
Would you like to know how?

02:00:50.830 --> 02:00:53.110
That's pretty much where it starts to go to.

02:00:53.110 --> 02:00:54.330
This is what happens.

02:00:54.330 --> 02:00:55.730
Let's say I have this key.

02:00:55.990 --> 02:00:58.710
And it opens my door to my, let's say dorm room.

02:00:59.250 --> 02:01:02.130
I take it out and I file this down.

02:01:02.630 --> 02:01:06.350
And I say, well that screws me because now I can't get into my room.

02:01:06.630 --> 02:01:08.350
Because you can see this is binding.

02:01:09.190 --> 02:01:12.310
Well I better keep filing it because I got to get my room somehow.

02:01:12.310 --> 02:01:13.650
Keep filing.

02:01:13.830 --> 02:01:14.850
Keep filing.

02:01:19.950 --> 02:01:25.890
Well it couldn't be higher because then you'd have a bottom pin that's completely out of the shear line.

02:01:25.890 --> 02:01:27.370
So it has to be lower.

02:01:30.890 --> 02:01:31.650
I see what you're saying.

02:01:31.650 --> 02:01:32.590
We're going to touch on that.

02:01:32.590 --> 02:01:36.290
There is a vendor that has two completely independent shear lines.

02:01:38.550 --> 02:01:38.990
Oh yeah.

02:01:39.050 --> 02:01:48.450
Bump keying and picking is easier on traditional master keyed systems because if you bump or you pick, you might pick half of these at a master height.

02:01:48.450 --> 02:01:49.650
The lock doesn't care.

02:01:49.650 --> 02:01:52.110
As long as you got shear lines going on, it's going to open.

02:01:52.250 --> 02:01:57.690
So yeah, if you have a really poorly engineered master pinned lock, you just... there it goes.

02:01:58.670 --> 02:02:04.970
But a very nice mastering type system, a very nice system is made by Best.

02:02:04.970 --> 02:02:06.690
And they're called SFIC.

02:02:06.690 --> 02:02:08.810
Small Format Interchangeable Core.

02:02:08.810 --> 02:02:10.510
Best is the most popular vendor.

02:02:10.510 --> 02:02:11.970
Some other vendors make them.

02:02:12.050 --> 02:02:15.250
These are very easily managed locks.

02:02:15.250 --> 02:02:18.970
It's very, very popular in large enterprise deployments when you have...

02:02:18.970 --> 02:02:22.250
you're trying to manage logistics and you're swapping out core.

02:02:22.250 --> 02:02:23.930
You're trying to manage who's who.

02:02:23.930 --> 02:02:33.130
The best lock or the SFIC, this figure eight shape, you can pull this whole core right out of the lock with the use of what's called a control key.

02:02:34.790 --> 02:02:37.770
This lock core, the pins are all sitting up here.

02:02:37.830 --> 02:02:38.850
There's a plug in here.

02:02:38.850 --> 02:02:42.190
The control key engages what's called a control sleeve.

02:02:42.650 --> 02:02:45.530
And you can see this sleeve has a big piece sticking out the side.

02:02:45.530 --> 02:02:48.910
If that sleeve is engaged , it's not going to pull out of the lock.

02:02:48.910 --> 02:03:01.570
But if you stick a control key in, turn it, and actually rotate the plug and the sleeve all at once, you can actually rotate the sleeve out of the way, pull the whole lock out, and then that can be... you can eject the pins, you can manage who's what,

02:03:01.570 --> 02:03:03.050
you can swap the cores very easily.

02:03:03.050 --> 02:03:04.290
They're very nicely made.

02:03:05.490 --> 02:03:09.110
This is also a disaster to try to pick with normal tools.

02:03:10.350 --> 02:03:13.830
If you just... you can see this is the brown is sort of the control sleeve.

02:03:13.830 --> 02:03:15.610
The light color is the plug.

02:03:15.950 --> 02:03:18.970
These shear lines are completely independent of one another.

02:03:18.970 --> 02:03:26.410
So you have the top shear, the bottom shear, and if you stick... this is a regular key, this would be a control key.

02:03:27.310 --> 02:03:34.430
If you stick a regular wrench in there, and you tension it, you're going to get binding all across these shear lines.

02:03:34.590 --> 02:03:40.570
So going in and trying to lift pins up, you're almost always going to not pick them all at the right shear line.

02:03:40.570 --> 02:03:44.110
You're going to catch some top, some low, you're not going to get it picked.

02:03:44.550 --> 02:03:46.130
Matt Blaze did the math on this.

02:03:46.130 --> 02:03:49.650
You know, the odds and the likelihood of actually hitting it correctly are not good.

02:03:50.650 --> 02:04:00.170
There is, however, manufactured by our good friends at Peterson, something called a finger wrench, which can stick in the lock...

02:04:00.170 --> 02:04:02.690
Let me actually switch up here.

02:04:04.150 --> 02:04:08.550
There is a tension wrench that has little fingers on it.

02:04:09.450 --> 02:04:10.590
It's hard to see.

02:04:10.590 --> 02:04:11.710
Can you see those?

02:04:13.050 --> 02:04:24.630
What that does is stick into the keyway, stick completely through the bottom of the keyway, because there's holes in the bottom.

02:04:25.130 --> 02:04:28.190
These holes don't actually serve a purpose in the lock's function.

02:04:28.190 --> 02:04:34.110
What they do is allow an ejector tool to stick into the lock if you want to pop the pins out and manage your pinning.

02:04:34.390 --> 02:04:40.710
But if you reach down through these holes, you can actually engage just the control sleeve.

02:04:42.210 --> 02:04:47.330
By just engaging the control sleeve, you're only going to tension the top shear line.

02:04:47.470 --> 02:04:55.350
Go in with a regular pick, set the pins, this is not as easy as it sounds, and then turn the control sleeve and eject the entire core.

02:04:58.690 --> 02:05:08.590
This is one example in what I'm going to wrap up at the end talking about the idea that disclosing these vulnerabilities helps us because...

02:05:08.590 --> 02:05:10.090
Oh, by the way, this is...

02:05:10.090 --> 02:05:11.390
Is anyone going to know this?

02:05:11.390 --> 02:05:12.110
This will be for...

02:05:12.110 --> 02:05:12.850
Question?

02:05:19.760 --> 02:05:21.320
I can't hear what you're saying.

02:05:27.480 --> 02:05:29.280
I don't really understand what you mean.

02:05:31.340 --> 02:05:32.620
Oh, it's not unlocked.

02:05:32.620 --> 02:05:34.320
You're just pulling the whole thing out.

02:05:34.320 --> 02:05:37.360
And you can look down and there's little pins that you can flip.

02:05:37.360 --> 02:05:38.080
Go ahead.

02:05:40.540 --> 02:05:41.400
Pardon me?

02:05:42.640 --> 02:05:51.260
Yeah, with the core out, you can eject the pins right out of it and get the entire... Not only that, if it's a mastered system, you can get the entire master scheme for the entire facility and so forth.

02:05:52.380 --> 02:05:53.100
Yes.

02:05:53.960 --> 02:06:00.000
Does anyone know who originally came up with this design for this finger wrench for a hard drive and a Red Bull?

02:06:00.980 --> 02:06:02.140
No, not Barry.

02:06:02.140 --> 02:06:03.080
Somebody at Peterson.

02:06:03.080 --> 02:06:04.200
Peterson makes these.

02:06:05.820 --> 02:06:07.060
No, not Ken.

02:06:07.060 --> 02:06:08.140
Good guess though.

02:06:08.360 --> 02:06:08.920
Anybody?

02:06:08.920 --> 02:06:11.080
If you don't know it, a guy named Jerry Finch.

02:06:11.080 --> 02:06:12.060
Very smart cat.

02:06:12.060 --> 02:06:12.700
Question?

02:06:29.780 --> 02:06:30.500
Right.

02:06:31.400 --> 02:06:34.240
Well, that's closer to the rotating constant system.

02:06:34.240 --> 02:06:35.040
I can talk about that.

02:06:35.040 --> 02:06:37.680
I'm going to get one more... I'm going to talk about that a little later.

02:06:37.680 --> 02:06:45.160
One more question and then we're going to try to fire through the rest of these and any more questions, if we run out of time, you're going to have the whole hands-on time to talk to me.

02:06:48.440 --> 02:06:49.280
Pardon?

02:06:50.780 --> 02:06:51.820
Yes.

02:06:52.820 --> 02:06:53.760
Very good point.

02:06:53.760 --> 02:06:57.560
This is why I'm so pleased with this information coming out.

02:06:57.560 --> 02:07:00.180
He mentions that there are new sleeve designs.

02:07:00.480 --> 02:07:08.920
In fact, Matt, when he first talked about this, he took his control sleeve and just cut the holes really huge in the bottom.

02:07:09.220 --> 02:07:11.140
You can still stick an ejector tool in there.

02:07:11.140 --> 02:07:14.800
It doesn't hurt, but there's nothing for the finger wrench to grab onto.

02:07:15.000 --> 02:07:18.000
And I believe best manufacture sleeves like this now.

02:07:18.000 --> 02:07:20.920
You mentioned that sometimes the control sleeves are in segments.

02:07:21.500 --> 02:07:26.660
So, yeah, the fact that this was publicly discussed means that it's safer for everyone now.

02:07:26.660 --> 02:07:29.100
And people are retrofitting their locks with better sleeves.

02:07:29.100 --> 02:07:31.260
It's a very, very good thing to talk about.

02:07:32.320 --> 02:07:33.080
Alright.

02:07:33.260 --> 02:07:35.700
Real quick, if you... How many people are enjoying this?

02:07:35.700 --> 02:07:38.000
How many people want to get more knowledge, more involved?

02:07:38.000 --> 02:07:39.640
Are you in the room?

02:07:40.500 --> 02:07:41.820
That's what I like to hear.

02:07:41.820 --> 02:07:43.400
There's plenty of books you can read.

02:07:43.400 --> 02:07:45.940
There's a lot of good places to go online.

02:07:46.260 --> 02:07:48.000
Let's shoot through some of these real fast.

02:07:48.000 --> 02:07:51.740
These slides are all online, by the way, and I'll tell you at the end so we can really flip through this.

02:07:52.380 --> 02:07:54.440
Two of the best books that I know of.

02:07:54.480 --> 02:08:00.380
Very intro, very beginners, very what-do-you-want-to-know-immediately-first is Steel Bolt Hacking by Douglas Chick.

02:08:00.480 --> 02:08:01.620
Doug was here last year.

02:08:01.620 --> 02:08:02.560
I don't know if he's here this year.

02:08:02.560 --> 02:08:05.000
His books probably are in the vendor area somewhere.

02:08:05.000 --> 02:08:08.960
The high end is written by the gentleman who spoke before us today.

02:08:08.960 --> 02:08:11.920
Mark Tobias wrote a book called Lock, Safes, and Security.

02:08:11.980 --> 02:08:14.460
That's called by many people the Lockpick Bible.

02:08:14.460 --> 02:08:17.480
It's just like the history of locks starting in ancient Egypt forward.

02:08:17.480 --> 02:08:20.360
It's a very, very good tome of knowledge.

02:08:20.600 --> 02:08:23.300
Online you can Google for the MIT Guide to Lockpicking.

02:08:23.300 --> 02:08:24.940
It's hosted at a few places.

02:08:25.000 --> 02:08:29.660
Some of the videos I'm showing you were cropped from Barry's presentations available here.

02:08:29.660 --> 02:08:31.240
There's a lot of informative pages.

02:08:31.240 --> 02:08:33.120
All these links, you don't have to scribble them right now.

02:08:33.120 --> 02:08:34.600
There's going to be all up at the end.

02:08:35.920 --> 02:08:37.680
There are sport-picking groups.

02:08:37.680 --> 02:08:38.680
There are hobbyist groups.

02:08:38.680 --> 02:08:42.100
There's a lot of fun things you can get involved with that way, with local people.

02:08:42.380 --> 02:08:50.680
Every con that you can go to now, DEFCON, back east, the HOPE cons, what the hack is happening now in Europe, there's sport-picking competitions usually.

02:08:50.680 --> 02:08:54.440
In fact, KyGoth and the DC719 crew are running that this year again.

02:08:54.440 --> 02:08:55.780
They do a great job of it.

02:08:56.020 --> 02:08:56.900
There's groups.

02:08:56.900 --> 02:08:58.640
I mentioned Barry's group, TOOL.

02:08:58.780 --> 02:09:01.460
The German group, which I think has a thousand members.

02:09:01.460 --> 02:09:02.380
It's really huge.

02:09:02.380 --> 02:09:04.000
It's from the Dispotechnik.

02:09:04.060 --> 02:09:07.340
TOOL USA, we recently founded with Barry's blessing.

02:09:07.340 --> 02:09:09.580
We're based out of Princeton University.

02:09:09.800 --> 02:09:12.580
If there's any people near you, meet people here.

02:09:12.580 --> 02:09:13.840
Talk and go home.

02:09:13.840 --> 02:09:15.540
Get together and play with stuff.

02:09:15.540 --> 02:09:16.500
Take it apart.

02:09:16.500 --> 02:09:19.500
It's excellent to do with friends or as an individual activity.

02:09:19.500 --> 02:09:25.840
I take a train up to Newark to go to school and I'll just sit there fussing with lockpicks on the train, just popping stuff open.

02:09:25.840 --> 02:09:27.380
It's a great way to pass the time.

02:09:27.980 --> 02:09:31.020
You get a few strange looks, but you're not doing anything very illegal.

02:09:31.620 --> 02:09:33.500
We're going to cover that now in the legal section.

02:09:35.020 --> 02:09:36.280
You've got to hold the question.

02:09:36.280 --> 02:09:36.620
I'm sorry.

02:09:36.620 --> 02:09:37.720
We're going to run out of time if we don't.

02:09:37.720 --> 02:09:38.200
Sorry.

02:09:39.360 --> 02:09:40.320
Buying picks.

02:09:40.800 --> 02:09:41.760
Southerd guys.

02:09:41.820 --> 02:09:43.920
Excellent, excellent picks for starter kits.

02:09:43.920 --> 02:09:44.860
They're very simple.

02:09:44.940 --> 02:09:48.420
The Peterson manufacturing company makes very nice high-end equipment.

02:09:48.840 --> 02:09:49.940
You can get stuff here.

02:09:49.940 --> 02:09:51.740
I know the guys from IVU are around.

02:09:51.740 --> 02:09:52.840
Check out their table.

02:09:52.960 --> 02:09:56.680
Check out some of our stuff in the hands-on area if you want to just pick them up from us.

02:09:56.760 --> 02:09:57.720
You can make your own.

02:09:57.720 --> 02:10:00.900
We'll cover all kind of fun stuff, but we're going to have our grinder tools out.

02:10:00.900 --> 02:10:03.920
We're going to make some picks and make some fun stuff in the hands-on session.

02:10:04.200 --> 02:10:07.820
Those of you with legal concerns, I am not a lawyer.

02:10:07.820 --> 02:10:09.240
I am not sleeping with one.

02:10:09.240 --> 02:10:10.960
This is not legal advice.

02:10:10.980 --> 02:10:12.060
Take it for what it's worth.

02:10:12.060 --> 02:10:13.580
Check your local laws.

02:10:13.880 --> 02:10:21.000
To purchase, ship, and in general just be involved in the transportation of picks, there is a federal standard.

02:10:21.200 --> 02:10:24.720
The federal standard is a five-point eligibility.

02:10:25.020 --> 02:10:27.180
You can be a lock manufacturer.

02:10:27.200 --> 02:10:28.480
You can be law enforcement.

02:10:28.620 --> 02:10:30.440
You can be in the auto business.

02:10:30.440 --> 02:10:31.860
You can be a repo man.

02:10:31.860 --> 02:10:34.120
Or you can be a bona fide locksmith.

02:10:34.260 --> 02:10:37.400
The lawyers in the room will tell you bona fide meaning in good faith.

02:10:37.400 --> 02:10:39.400
It doesn't mean a professional locksmith.

02:10:39.400 --> 02:10:41.480
It doesn't mean a certified locksmith.

02:10:41.480 --> 02:10:44.600
It just means you have a good faith interest in locksmithing.

02:10:44.600 --> 02:10:51.160
In many circles, check with a lawyer, in many circles this is extended to hobbyist and academic interests.

02:10:51.160 --> 02:10:52.460
I've got to have you wait for the question.

02:10:52.460 --> 02:10:53.140
I'm sorry.

02:10:53.620 --> 02:10:59.100
If you have a legitimate non-criminal interest in this, you are covered under that part of the law.

02:10:59.100 --> 02:11:06.140
If you're dealing with a vendor and they say you have to fill out this form, fill it out under check box number five and you should be clear.

02:11:06.860 --> 02:11:10.200
Possession of lock picks, however, can be squirrely.

02:11:10.820 --> 02:11:13.340
Lock picks per se, right Mike, are not illegal.

02:11:13.380 --> 02:11:15.200
Burglary tools are illegal, right?

02:11:15.360 --> 02:11:17.080
Depends where, but generally yes.

02:11:17.480 --> 02:11:20.000
Burglary tools, what makes a burglary tool?

02:11:20.200 --> 02:11:20.860
Intent.

02:11:20.880 --> 02:11:23.120
Intent is much of the law.

02:11:23.880 --> 02:11:36.760
Most laws, every state, by the way, the lockpick101.com those guys, lockpicking101.org or com, we'll check it again, they have a whole legal section you can get all the information you need.

02:11:37.040 --> 02:11:46.700
Basically, if you have demonstrable intent that you're trying to commit a crime, you've got a whole other bag of shit you're trying to deal with.

02:11:46.700 --> 02:11:52.580
If you're just a guy on a subway and they're doing fascist crap in New York, patting people down now and they say, what are these?

02:11:52.580 --> 02:11:53.240
What are these?

02:11:53.240 --> 02:11:53.900
Lock picks?

02:11:54.220 --> 02:11:56.260
Well, you're a guy frigging riding the subway.

02:11:57.080 --> 02:11:59.140
I wasn't going to go somewhere and pick a lock.

02:11:59.140 --> 02:12:01.220
No, there's no intent that you were going to do anything.

02:12:01.220 --> 02:12:08.820
If you are squatting behind Best Buy at 3 in the morning at the back door and a cop's like, what are you doing?

02:12:08.820 --> 02:12:10.240
You're like, I'm taking a piss.

02:12:10.460 --> 02:12:14.920
And they find lock picks on you, you've got a whole different situation you're in there.

02:12:15.400 --> 02:12:17.140
So, be aware of that.

02:12:17.140 --> 02:12:22.120
Many states do not have intent laws or they have kind of more draconian laws.

02:12:22.120 --> 02:12:25.280
We can cover that later on or talk to a lawyer.

02:12:25.320 --> 02:12:29.500
These are states of concern with what are called prima facie evidence laws.

02:12:30.100 --> 02:12:31.520
It's all kind of relative.

02:12:31.520 --> 02:12:32.860
Just keep intent in mind.

02:12:32.860 --> 02:12:38.600
And also if you do anything else illegal, sometimes possession of a lock pick can escalate that crime.

02:12:38.600 --> 02:12:51.200
For instance, if you're trespassing, if you have, a lot of people here like urban exploring, if you're somewhere you're not supposed to be, you might turn a misdemeanor trespass charge into a criminal trespass charge because you had picks on you.

02:12:51.200 --> 02:12:51.980
Keep it in mind.

02:12:51.980 --> 02:12:53.020
Check with a lawyer.

02:12:53.160 --> 02:12:54.360
There's plenty of lawyers here.

02:12:54.360 --> 02:12:55.660
Talk to the people who know.

02:12:58.680 --> 02:12:59.460
Acquiring locks.

02:12:59.460 --> 02:13:00.840
I'll shoot through this real fast.

02:13:00.860 --> 02:13:04.840
Basically, the last, the main thing is just don't go crazy buying them all over.

02:13:04.980 --> 02:13:06.300
Most locks are the same.

02:13:06.300 --> 02:13:09.060
You're gonna, you know, everyone who gets real, oh, I can pick, it's fun.

02:13:09.060 --> 02:13:12.860
You go to the hardware store, you drop 60 bucks, you got you know, a ton of the same lock.

02:13:12.860 --> 02:13:14.060
Look through your basement.

02:13:14.060 --> 02:13:16.820
Look through old stuff that relatives have left in a box somewhere.

02:13:16.820 --> 02:13:18.420
Look for old exotic designs.

02:13:18.640 --> 02:13:21.140
You can get really nice what are called training kits.

02:13:21.140 --> 02:13:29.560
I have one that you can play with at the hands-on where it's pinned, you know, they're keyed the same, but it's only like a one pin stack, then a two pin stack, then a three.

02:13:29.560 --> 02:13:32.620
So you can actually get the feel for it and get started that way.

02:13:32.620 --> 02:13:35.380
There's a lot of really good places you can acquire locks.

02:13:35.380 --> 02:13:36.480
Ask me about later.

02:13:37.500 --> 02:13:40.040
So how does this all break down into the real world?

02:13:40.040 --> 02:13:43.200
What does this really bear on in the big picture?

02:13:43.440 --> 02:13:46.220
They mentioned in the last talk, it's very valid.

02:13:46.520 --> 02:13:48.920
Criminals don't tend to use lock picks.

02:13:48.920 --> 02:13:54.620
I'm not saying no one ever picks a lock with criminal intent, but usually yeah, you're going to get a boot to the door.

02:13:54.640 --> 02:13:59.440
Anybody who was watching sneakers on the Defcon movie channel last night, you know, they just kick the door down.

02:13:59.460 --> 02:14:01.660
Brute force is what criminals use.

02:14:01.660 --> 02:14:10.900
Don't buy the most expensive lock on the shelf and put it, you know, in a non-solid core door with like a balsa wood frame, just, you know, with little quarter inch screws.

02:14:11.580 --> 02:14:13.060
Situate the lock properly.

02:14:13.060 --> 02:14:14.940
Consider the overall scope of it.

02:14:14.940 --> 02:14:23.840
I mentioned, you know, if a guy can sit there next to your server room or your records room picking a lock for an hour, why don't you have a security camera near that door?

02:14:23.840 --> 02:14:26.560
Why don't you have a security guard who occasionally walks by?

02:14:26.620 --> 02:14:29.200
Keep the big picture in mind.

02:14:31.240 --> 02:14:32.580
What make good locks?

02:14:32.580 --> 02:14:36.200
I always get asked this, so I put this page in just to shoot down a few names.

02:14:36.200 --> 02:14:37.720
I don't work for any of these guys.

02:14:37.720 --> 02:14:39.340
They just kind of impress me.

02:14:39.340 --> 02:14:42.580
Those Medicos with the biaxial pins, I love them to death.

02:14:42.620 --> 02:14:46.420
The Assa V10, for the slight flaw that it has, it's still magnificent.

02:14:46.500 --> 02:14:49.140
Those best FICs, they're very hard to pick.

02:14:49.140 --> 02:14:52.480
They're very nice to do logistics of large scale deployment.

02:14:52.800 --> 02:14:56.360
Abus, that was what Barry was picking, the rotating disk lock.

02:14:56.360 --> 02:14:58.440
They make a very , very nice strong lock.

02:14:58.540 --> 02:15:03.540
American , we're going to talk about a little bit more at my very end slide, but they tend to make good things.

02:15:03.540 --> 02:15:08.960
And if anybody here is in the military, by the way, anybody who can score me one of these bad boys?

02:15:09.560 --> 02:15:22.680
The Sergeant in Greenleaf 833, I've heard it told that if you come across one of these, somewhere far, far away, there's a lieutenant screaming at a corporal as to why it's not inventoried properly, because they're not supposed to get out there.

02:15:23.860 --> 02:15:24.400
You got one?

02:15:24.400 --> 02:15:24.940
You got one?

02:15:27.780 --> 02:15:28.660
That's what I've heard.

02:15:28.660 --> 02:15:29.860
These are armory locks.

02:15:29.860 --> 02:15:38.480
These are a Medico biaxial core, situated in what is the most beautifully designed and engineered housing I've ever seen in my life.

02:15:39.120 --> 02:15:40.680
Yes, some bad locks stand out.

02:15:40.680 --> 02:15:50.300
We've been kind of beaten up on Master for this talk, and I don't like to all the time, because they make a high-end model, just no one buys them, because they keep frigging making shitty models that everyone buys, because they're cheap.

02:15:50.900 --> 02:15:57.100
Quickset, everyone who's ever got a door in your house that has a quickset, you'll shit your pants when you pick it in three seconds.

02:15:58.160 --> 02:16:00.520
Keep in mind, you get what you pay for.

02:16:00.560 --> 02:16:09.320
If there's three different locks on the shelf, one costs nothing, one costs middle, and one costs a lot, chances are, the expensive one's going to be better.

02:16:09.320 --> 02:16:21.900
If you're in the American marketplace, if it's a free market system, if you're a recognizable name, you can't keep producing garbage year after year, and people aren't going to keep buying your product, unless you're Microsoft.

02:16:24.100 --> 02:16:28.020
If it's a reputable brand and it's expensive, you're probably halfway there.

02:16:31.360 --> 02:16:33.600
You picked a quickset with a popsicle stick?

02:16:33.600 --> 02:16:35.380
It wouldn't surprise me.

02:16:36.240 --> 02:16:38.960
Keep playing with these locks.

02:16:38.980 --> 02:16:40.620
Keep experimenting.

02:16:41.200 --> 02:16:45.620
Security is achieved through openness, not just in the digital world.

02:16:45.620 --> 02:16:52.360
We should not be so eager to be hushed up about when we discover things in the physical world.

02:16:53.040 --> 02:16:54.720
Craziness next door.

02:16:55.020 --> 02:17:01.060
The American 700 is a story I love to tell, because it's a complete example of this phenomenon.

02:17:01.920 --> 02:17:03.820
Anybody live in a big city?

02:17:03.820 --> 02:17:05.120
Been to a big city?

02:17:06.380 --> 02:17:15.640
So if you're walking around at night, you'll see that every storefront is closed down with a big honking sucker.

02:17:16.600 --> 02:17:27.240
Almost always, storefronts and big where brute force, where some guy with a crowbar is going to be the assault, is going to be either an American lock or a clone of an American lock.

02:17:27.240 --> 02:17:29.360
This is their 700 series lock.

02:17:29.360 --> 02:17:31.040
It's a very nice padlock.

02:17:31.400 --> 02:17:34.380
It has a flaw, however, which was discovered.

02:17:35.940 --> 02:17:38.540
This lock is a removable core.

02:17:38.540 --> 02:17:44.660
You can see that when the lock is unlocked, you can unscrew from the inside, drop the eight plate off, eject the core.

02:17:44.660 --> 02:17:46.780
The core is a nice little self-contained unit.

02:17:46.980 --> 02:17:59.260
This core interfaces with the double ball control cylinder by means of the core has a raised half circle piece and the control cylinder has a raised quarter circle piece.

02:17:59.260 --> 02:18:00.440
Can you guys see that?

02:18:00.440 --> 02:18:04.280
How they just fit together and when they're together, they turn and they engage.

02:18:06.120 --> 02:18:10.660
Peterson makes this tool called the American Bypass Tool.

02:18:13.020 --> 02:18:18.600
This is the bypass tool and if I stick this all the way down this lock

02:18:24.380 --> 02:18:25.960
and I beat this tool to hell

02:18:29.020 --> 02:18:30.880
that opens that lock.

02:18:32.240 --> 02:18:33.220
Why is that?

02:18:33.220 --> 02:18:38.680
Well, it's because if you're looking at this core, this ejected core, this is the back end of it.

02:18:38.760 --> 02:18:41.080
The keyway is visible.

02:18:41.080 --> 02:18:49.860
The keyway is cut all the way through and the Peterson tool, the bypass tool just has a little hockey stick kind of end.

02:18:49.960 --> 02:18:57.420
It slips all the way down through the keyway and it spins that second cylinder.

02:18:57.580 --> 02:19:02.080
The cylinder, it just fits right in where it should be and it just kind of just flicks the cylinder and just turns it.

02:19:02.380 --> 02:19:04.420
It's a very elegant bypass.

02:19:04.420 --> 02:19:08.620
It's got a lot of attention but American is a great company.

02:19:08.620 --> 02:19:16.260
Instead of trying to sue people over this, instead of trying to make a huge fuss, American just came out with something called a security wafer.

02:19:16.420 --> 02:19:18.540
They're hard to order but they do have a part number.

02:19:18.540 --> 02:19:20.200
You can find them by some vendors.

02:19:20.320 --> 02:19:24.400
You can take your core, eject it out, and put this security wafer in.

02:19:24.460 --> 02:19:29.200
And it's literally, I love how it's such a, like the digital world, it's like they released a patch.

02:19:29.560 --> 02:19:31.680
So it's like a hot fix.

02:19:32.020 --> 02:19:37.120
And you put the lock back together and you can't stick the American tool down the keyway.

02:19:37.660 --> 02:19:45.220
Never one to be discouraged, Ken came up with this, which is a wafer breaker kit.

02:19:47.420 --> 02:19:53.920
You stick these down the keyway, you smash on them, and those wafers are spread out in their history.

02:19:54.360 --> 02:19:56.380
So we'll see what happens next.

02:19:56.520 --> 02:19:59.200
I would like to think American is a good company.

02:19:59.320 --> 02:20:01.800
Chances are they're going to try to come up with something even better.

02:20:01.800 --> 02:20:03.880
And Ken's going to kind of come up with something better.

02:20:03.880 --> 02:20:06.680
And the end result is better security for all of us.

02:20:06.700 --> 02:20:09.340
Because we talk about it, the vendors address it.

02:20:09.340 --> 02:20:11.480
That's not a bad thing.

02:20:12.380 --> 02:20:14.700
You know, this is, we know about all of this.

02:20:14.700 --> 02:20:19.780
You guys, all we know about security through obscurity versus real security in the digital world.

02:20:19.860 --> 02:20:22.140
Think about it the same way in the real world.

02:20:22.140 --> 02:20:23.760
The physical world is no different.

02:20:24.120 --> 02:20:26.280
Matt Blaze wrote a couple of great papers about this.

02:20:26.280 --> 02:20:27.480
I have the links later.

02:20:28.800 --> 02:20:35.620
Ultimately, I like to kind of wrap it up by saying don't be super trusting of anything.

02:20:35.860 --> 02:20:41.360
When I was real young, my dad was in the service, and he had his issue weapons in the house.

02:20:41.360 --> 02:20:45.000
And when I was growing up, he showed me guns when I was real little.

02:20:45.060 --> 02:20:51.100
And he said, you know, he's showing me how this is how it's open and closed, and he's showing me how you can look down the barrel and the chamber is empty.

02:20:51.200 --> 02:20:52.540
And I said, well, why am I showing you this?

02:20:52.540 --> 02:20:55.300
Because, son, a gun is not safe.

02:20:55.400 --> 02:20:59.400
A gun is not okay unless you've seen that it's safe.

02:20:59.400 --> 02:21:01.380
You're not protected unless you've seen it.

02:21:01.380 --> 02:21:02.720
What did I just tell you?

02:21:02.720 --> 02:21:06.000
And I was like, a gun's not safe unless I know it's safe.

02:21:06.000 --> 02:21:06.700
He goes, no.

02:21:06.700 --> 02:21:09.740
It's not safe unless you've seen that it's safe.

02:21:09.760 --> 02:21:11.200
See it for yourself.

02:21:11.500 --> 02:21:12.740
Take things apart.

02:21:12.980 --> 02:21:13.940
Play with them.

02:21:13.940 --> 02:21:15.980
Don't just take people at their word.

02:21:16.460 --> 02:21:24.640
You know, we joke around, and when AST Cell and other guys are out walking around at night, and we all take pictures, you know, oh, the hacker salute, DEF CON salute.

02:21:25.340 --> 02:21:27.540
This is more powerful than you know.

02:21:28.020 --> 02:21:33.120
This is something that you should fly in the face of people who try to stop you from exploring.

02:21:33.760 --> 02:21:41.640
Nothing can be healthier than a really nice, hearty, fuck you to some people who say that learning about things is bad.

02:21:41.720 --> 02:21:44.140
Can I get everyone to practice this one time all together?

02:21:44.680 --> 02:21:45.520
Out loud.

02:21:45.520 --> 02:21:46.700
One, two, three.

02:21:46.740 --> 02:21:48.200
Fuck you!

02:21:48.620 --> 02:21:49.400
Hey, man.

02:21:49.400 --> 02:21:51.100
Those are trade secrets.

02:21:51.100 --> 02:21:52.520
Those are copyrighted.

02:21:52.520 --> 02:21:54.360
You can't explore our designs.

02:21:54.360 --> 02:21:56.300
Just buy them.

02:21:56.320 --> 02:21:58.040
Fuck you!

02:21:58.100 --> 02:22:00.360
The Department of Justice is in control.

02:22:00.360 --> 02:22:01.480
Leave it to your legislators.

02:22:01.480 --> 02:22:03.980
We will pass laws that take care of you.

02:22:03.980 --> 02:22:05.960
You don't have to know how things work.

02:22:06.100 --> 02:22:07.600
Fuck you!

02:22:07.640 --> 02:22:09.620
Why are you trying to explore things?

02:22:09.620 --> 02:22:10.820
You're just a criminal.

02:22:10.820 --> 02:22:12.560
You're not interested in security.

02:22:12.980 --> 02:22:14.220
Fuck you!

02:22:14.460 --> 02:22:17.960
Exposing bad security is what protects us all.

02:22:33.230 --> 02:22:35.030
Thank you very much.

02:22:35.070 --> 02:22:36.130
I could not have...

02:22:36.130 --> 02:22:36.950
Oh, sorry.

02:22:38.550 --> 02:22:42.790
To say that I came up and did this on my own would be just ridiculous.

02:22:43.270 --> 02:22:47.550
Barry, Matt, Mike here, RenderMan, who you've seen around with the fedora.

02:22:48.070 --> 02:22:49.870
Before everyone leaves, there's going to be a Q&A.

02:22:49.870 --> 02:22:55.930
Everybody from Tool, DC719 and Kygoth, everybody in Tool USA, I've got to thank them all.

02:22:56.150 --> 02:22:58.430
We can do Q&A with the few minutes we've got.

02:22:58.430 --> 02:23:00.570
Here's all the links.

02:23:01.030 --> 02:23:03.190
Or if you want, we're really short on time.

02:23:03.190 --> 02:23:05.290
Do you guys want to just break it down here?

02:23:05.310 --> 02:23:06.330
I'll pack all this up.

02:23:06.330 --> 02:23:11.330
We can meet in the contest area, do some hands-on work, and we'll do questions there.

02:23:11.330 --> 02:23:14.030
Everyone, pie and punch will be served at the contest area.

02:23:15.750 --> 02:23:19.530
By the way, if you're leaving, leave through those doors.

02:23:19.530 --> 02:23:22.330
Doors to your left as you face the stage.

02:23:22.650 --> 02:23:23.610
Thank you.
