Ce mercredi 5 juin, j’ai eu l’opportunité de présenter au SSTIC 2024 le résultat de mes recherches sur NSEC3, le sous-système de DNSSEC permettant de sécuriser certains aspects de DNS. J’ai montré comment ce système peut être utilisé pour télécharger la liste des domaines hébergés par les TLD.
The New Year’s Eve 2024 has passed and I’d take this opportunity to write down what’s passing on my mind right now. 2023 has been a better year for me than every other year since 2017~2018, in that nothing really bad has happened 🤷. Here’s some important points:
