How Goner suspects were tracked down
Messages coded into the Goner worm and monitoring of the IRC channel used to control its activities led to the arrest of four suspected Israeli virus writers over the weekend.
One of the actions of Goner, which normally spreads as an infected attached-to-email message, is to install denial of service scripts for the mIRC Internet Relay Chat client. By monitoring the #pentagonex channel used to control the worm's activities, security experts working for DALnet IRC were able to track down its suspected creators.

HashKeeper
HashKeeper is a database application of value primarily to those conducting forensic examinations of computers on a somewhat regular basis. The application uses the MD5 file signature algorithm to establish unique numeric identifiers (hash values) for known files and compares those known hash values against the hash values of unknown files on a seized computer system. Where those values match, the examiner can say, with statistical certainty, that the unknown files on the seized system have been authenticated and therefore do not need to be examined.

Quality Security Tools
In May/June of 2000, we conducted a survey of 1200 Nmap users from the nmap-hackers mailing list to determine their favorite security tools. Each respondant could list up to 5.
I was so impressed by the list they created that I am putting the top 50 up here where everyone can benefit from them. I think anyone in the security field would be well advised to go over the list and investigate any tools they are unfamiliar with. I also plan to point newbies to this page whenever they write me saying "I do not know where to start".
