RoboAmp has been updated to adapt to these changes, as well as a few other minor changes. You can get the new version here. If you would like to see more changes to RoboAmp or any of our other SX Labs releases, please drop by for our IRC meeting tomorrow at 4 PM EST.
Site Enhancements
26 May, 2015 - 20:13 — RaTJust a heads up to all, we are working to make the site faster. We've already made some database changes that should have increased the site speed quite a bit. We hope these optimizations will increase the current usage of the forums. We also have plans to move to newer hardware, but we're still working those details out due to our limited budget. Please contact me if you notice any particularly slow areas of the site that you'd like to be faster.

15 April, 2015 - 21:50 — RaTUnfortunately shortly after his induction into the SX Crew, Shinobi has gone missing. As a result, n0 has been stepping up to fill his shoes. The high council has finally finished discussing meeting issues, crew issues, and project issues. As a result, we will be having a major IRC meeting tomorrow (04-16-2015) from noon to two (12:00-14:00) EST. We hope that all the crew will be able to attend, as well as many of our more committed community members. If you're a VIP member, please check out the forums for news on some major releases 
Introducing secadm 0.2
14 April, 2015 - 17:08 — latteraWe're excited to announce the release of secadm version 0.2! We've been working hard on a new star feature: Integriforce.
You can download secadm 0.2 here and the GPG signature here. It was signed with Shawn Webb's GPG key with fingerprint 2ABA B6BD EF6A F486 BE89 3D9E 6A84 658F 5245 6EEE.
Change Log:
- New feature: Integriforce. executable file integrity through hash checking and enforcement
- Fix issue linking with prior versions of secadm
- Fix typos
- Various cleanups
Announcing Integriforce
This feature provides executable file integrity enforcement. If a rule exists for a given file, that file's hash as defined in the rule is matched against the hash of the file. If the hashes don't match, execution may be disallowed, depending on the configuration settings. Integriforce is an optional, but powerful, feature. Integriforce currently supports SHA1 and SHA256. Both executables and shared libraries are supported. Please note that files that are under Integriforce management cannot be modified or deleted. The ruleset will need to be flushed prior to modifying or deleting the file.
When we did our call for testing (and thank you to those who tested!), only executable files were checked, not their dependencies (shared objects). With HardenedBSD v18 (sysctl hardening.version) and secadm 0.2, we now support checking the dependencies. This required a change in the runtime linker (also known as the RTLD) that calls into Integriforce if it is available. Additionally, there is a new kernel feature sysctl exposed, kern.features.integriforce.
SOLDIERX to start Disciples of 0day religious entity
1 April, 2015 - 00:00 — RaTThroughout the years, we have had a number of people ask us where we stood on religion. With religion being a hot topic in the news lately, we've been pushed more and more on our stance. This has prompted a couple of us here to actually think about it and come to a conclusion that the closest thing to religion that many of us have is through our work. If we gave that answer to somebody though, they wouldn't consider it valid. Well.... until now.
In accordance with the recently passed Religious Freedom Restoration Act in Indiana, we have decided to file the appropriate paperwork with the state to create the Disciples of 0day Inc. which will be an organization which worships by furthering our knowledge and understanding with technology. Also, due to how the RFRA works in Indiana, some aspects of the DMCA cannot be enforced against active members due how it conflicts and potentially discriminates against our religious practices.
Our primary doctrine is to further your knowledge and understanding in various aspects of technology which will include hardware modification, bypassing unnecessary protection on privately owned hardware, understanding exploits, and creating effective proofs of concept for exploits. As for who can join, our organization will welcome anybody regardless of race, gender, and/or sexual orientation as we feel all would benefit from our doctrine.
So if you worship the almighty 0day, please reach out to us and join the Disciples of 0day today! Attached to this post are a few motivational pictures (including our new church logo).
