RUNNING A MICROSOFT OPERATING SYSTEM ON A NETWORK? OUR
CONDOLENCES.

[July 21, San Francisco] The CULT OF THE DEAD COW (cDc) will
release Back Orifice, a remote MS Windows Administration
tool at Defcon VI in Las Vegas (www.defcon.org) on August 1.
Programmed by Sir Dystic [cDc], Back Orifice is a
self-contained, self-installing utility which allows the
user to control and monitor computers running the Windows
operating system over a network.

Sir Dystic sounded like an overworked sysadmin when he said,
"The two main legitimate purposes for BO are, remote tech
support aid and employee monitoring and administering [of a
Windows network]."

Back Orifice is going to be made available to anyone who
takes the time to download it. So what does that mean for
anyone who's bought into Microsoft's Swiss cheese approach
to security? Plenty according to Mike Bloom, Chief Technical
Officer for Gomi Media in Toronto.

"The current path of learning I see around me is to learn
what you have to to cover your ass, go home and watch Jerry.
Microsoft has capitalized on this at the cost of production
value which translates down to security. A move like
releasing [Back Orifice] means that the lowest common
denominator of user will have to come to understand the
threat, and that it is not from [Sir Dystic] writing an app
that [potentially] turns Win32 security on its ear, but that
Microsoft has leveraged itself into a position where anyone
who wants to can download an app [or write their own!] and
learn a few tricks and make serious shit happen."
