I am releasing the source for IDA Sync under the GPL license. IDA Sync is implemented as an IDA Pro plugin and stand alone server for the purpose of allowing multiple analysts to synchronize their reverse engineering efforts. IDA Sync is especially useful when speed reversing malware. This project has some quirks that need to be worked out still and is being released pre-production quality in hopes of getting some support from the open source community.

Metakit if you haven't heard of it is an extremely useful, lightweight and efficient embeddable database library. I use it in many of my internal projects, including IDA Sync which was released today. In the process of bundling IDA Sync, I found that the latest Python bindings are not compatible with Python 2.4. After some googling I still couldn't find the appropriate binding so I bit the bullet and did the compile myself. To save others the effort, I am making it available here.

It's been at least 6 months since I last looked at PyTrAn (Python Traffic Analyzer), but I came across it today and decided to organize some documentation and release it on the research/code page.

It's an interesting little side-project the goal of which was to automate traffic camera image analysis for the purpose of generating real-time traffic congestion reports. It has already reached a usable state though definitely short of my grand vision for where it could be. I'm sure at some point in the distant future I will find another burst of motivation to further it along.

With the purchase of new server and the move to a new datacenter I figured it would also be the appropriate time to update my website.

I removed some stagnant content, added some projects / code I've had laying around and gave the whole site a face lift. While currently far from complete I have the vision in mind and will fill out the site in the coming weeks.
