Using a phone’s basic photo editing capabilities…
1 – take photo, in a dark location, with flash
2 – send
3 – tell recipient to lighten the photo
See? Black box-ish until lightened.
– recipient has texts set to display on the lock screen
– recipient is in a crowded room, people are shoulder surfing
There’s a very expensive luxury sedan segment you don’t see advertised, the Security segment.
BMW Security, Mercedes S-Guard, Audi A8 Security,
Take their largest sedan, add plating, ballistic and new windows, cameras with night vision, instantly seal the cabin for gas attacks, and keep it looking like the regular model – security through obscurity.

Masking the armour beneath factory finishings, so the car looks identical to the non-armoured model.
I’d go for the vehicle’s traffic… follow behind, laptop and antennae on the passenger seat, see what you can capture…maybe steal some passwords, or take some data and hold it for ransom, copy photos for blackmail, you get it.

Same approach when securing your car in the city, and why you hide your WiFi network name (how to here).
Out of sight, out of mind.
SSID – service set identifier
Big mystery solved eh, eye roll.
It’s like, a snobby way of asking the WiFi network name… “oh Clarence, what’s your SSID dahling?” *tea cup pinky*
When securing your WiFi network use WPA2 (never WEP). Then hide the name, don’t broadcast it, “cloak your network”, practice security through obscurity.
How to do that, here: How to Change your Router Password
Two days before the race, Honda invited me on a backstage tour of the event. Like last year, it was awesome.
But unlike last year, this year’s tour included a stop at the security HQ come ON. I asked so many questions, the tour guide walked away.
Imagine securing 25,000 people, many of whom are drinking. And do it all in a way that’s un-obtrusive, so as to not create panic and alarm.
For more auto-oriented stuff from the race, here’s the tag – Honda Indy.
I purposefully waited to blog these photos, lest I accidentally reveal something of value.
Race teams – choose better WiFi network names; security through obscurity.
