    firearm lock box talk from a hacker convention

    I meant to post this earlier (like last year), but kept forgetting.

    The following video, is a talk from DefCon 19, which took place last year in Las Vegas.

    Pretty good review (how easy it is to break into) of gun locks, firearm lock boxes & gun safes from a hacker ("Deviant Ollam").

    Interesting, but NSFW language from the presenter.

      You'll have to go to youtube and look for the title yourself.

      Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!

              These manufacturers need to step it up. Who puts slots in their case so you can fit a lock pick in and add your robbers fingerprint to memory?

                  Actually, I would like any safe I use to be secure. They opened the Micro Vault (which I currently use) with a tubular pick. Took them about 5 seconds. The companies need to start using better locks. I think I am going to change mine out to a lock that will work (can't be easily picked) in the safe.
