Swordfish Take Down (or whatever they are going to call it when it finally hits the US stores) Sneakers (showing my age but a classic with Robert Redford as Condor) War Games Hackers (horrible film with Sandra Bullox) There used to be an online archive of movies including a documentary of "Hactic" by a German film maker (in English) which was excellent but I have lost it. -----Original Message----- From: Jason Merriman [mailto:jasonmerriman11 () aol com] Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 9:47 AM To: Mike Andrews Cc: webappsec () securityfocus com Subject: Re: Hacking/security in main-stream media

A bit off the wall, but as good a place to post this as any :) I'm writing a tutorial/courseware on security (both basic topics and programming) and I'm looking for clips from movies or tv to introduce subjects - I've found that videos work well with introductions and short breaks to getting the audience in the right frame of mind (as well as getting them relaxed). So far I have the following.... Jurassic Park - insider threat (the programmer gets the system to bypass security while he steals the DNA/embryos) Sneakers - Cryptography (when the team discovers it's a crypto box they have) The Net - Personally identifiable information (main characters personal information is deleted) War Games - [Not sure yet, not managed to pickup the film] Hackers - [Not sure yet, not managed to pickup the film] Any other suggestions? I'm only wanting short (5min) sections, but I'm willing to edit bit's out if needed. Cheers, Mike. ---- Mike Andrews Florida Institute of Technology
