More on comics and security

I’ve written before about how useful comics can be in security training. See a previous blog entry here.

In that brief article, I called out some of Markus Schumacher’s training animations. I’m pleased to report that Markus has asked Cigital to host some of his material. Here are some links:

Example 1: Car Auction

Example 2: Online Application

Cross Site Request Forgery

Forceful Browsing

You can also find these links together in one place on our resources page.

    Is there some reason that the CSRF example has no sound? I can’t read lips, especially on cartoons.

    Ditto w/ the ‘forceful browsing’ example.

    Gary,

    I just found Cigital’s site by accident not to long ago, but this is great stuff and I love the podcast. Thanks for all the great info.

    Also sounds like you grew up close to me in TN. I lived in roane county (close to Oak Ridge).

    Hi Don,

    I grew up in east TN (Kingsport) and drove to Knoxville every week for violin. These days I live just “up the valley” on the Shenandoah.

    I’m pleased that you like the podcast and the other things we do to build the software security community. Thanks for your feedback.

    Kevin — only two of the animations have audio.
