Fail Map, visualizing security fail at trusted parties for your protection

A talk from EMF 2016 by Elger "Stitch" Jonker

On Sunday August 7, 2016 at in Stage B

The Fail Map project shows security problems at governments on a geographical map. The goal is to improve safety of exchanging sentive information with parties that are required to process this. We do this by providing a geographical map of these entities and showing where and what problems are present, why they matter and how to solve them.

A pilot in the Netherlands resulted in the securing of over 150 weak TLS connections in the first weekend. This map is visible at https://www.faalkaart.nl

After the presentation a short discussion is planned to exchange knowledge about the state of Responsible Disclosure, starting with the (very positive) situation in the Netherlands.
