Dark Reading Video News Desk Comes to Black Hat Europe

While attendees join Black Hat Europe 2021 virtually and live in London, we bring you prerecorded interviews from remote offices around the world.

Nov. 10, 2021 — The Dark Reading News Desk has, in past years, come to you live from Black Hat with live video interviews featuring top security researchers who discuss the details of their presentations at the show. But as the world has changed, so too has our News Desk.
The Dark Reading News Desk went virtual at last years Black Hat USA during the events first-ever virtual conference, and we kept the format for
this years hybrid event
as some attendees traveled to Las Vegas and some joined from home. This week, the virtual News Desk will bring you prerecorded interviews with the security experts presenting at Black Hat Europe 2021, another hybrid event that will be both virtual and live at the ExCel in London.
These interviews will begin going live at Black Hat Virtual and on Dark Reading on Wednesday, Nov. 10, at 11:00AM GMT/6:00AM EST. Black Hat Europe attendees watching remotely can find them under the shows Dark Reading News Desk tab. If you dont have a conference pass, you can keep an eye on this page, where videos will be uploaded on Nov. 10 and Nov. 11.

Read Between the Lines: Finding Flaws in EPUB Reading Systems:
EPUB, the most popular open e-book format, is supported by free applications on many devices. A team of researchers from KU Leuven analyzed EPUB reading applications and physical e-readers to find many applications are not compliant with the security recommendations of the EPUB specification, and malicious e-books could put readers at risk (for more details, see
Kelly Sheridans piece
on Dark Reading).
Watch now:
Defending the Open Source Software Supply Chain:
Researchers show how they can tamper with lockfiles to hide malicious code in open source contributions to avoid detection during review, and release a tool for blue teams to verify the integrity of the lockfile.
Watch now:
How ChaosDB Compromised Thousands of Azure Databases:
It’s the stuff out of every company’s worst security nightmare: A vulnerability in cloud database platform Azure Cosmos DB could potentially be exploited to affect every customer on the same platform. Speakers discuss mitigation and best practices learned for improving cloud services.
