Intro to High Security Locks and Safes

Presented at DEF CON 13 (2005), July 30, 2005, 1 p.m. (50 minutes)

This "Talk" will focus on the next step beyond basic locks and lock picking. You will NOT learn about basic cylinders. You will not learn how to shim a padlock. You will learn about Medeco side bars and how they've been beaten. You will learn about mul-t-lock pin-in-pin cylinders and how they've been beaten. You will learn the basics of safe manipulation. This is not a "Talk" that will teach you how to pick, the "pick-proof" locks. It will give you the foundation and methods that will allow you to understand these locks, and the concepts behind picking them. Punch and Pie will be served.
