Deviant Ollam: "This shit is how I defeated the fucking door."

I believe LPL did make a video about similar ways to defeat doors, but he just loves locks. That is his hobby. He prefers blowing them up to just beating doors. Heck, he might blow up the door so might want him to stick to locks :P

Deviant is an extremely gifted speaker. He reminds me a lot of Michael Malice. Malice isn't a hacker, he's a Twitter troll (on par with Trump) who writes really good books. His "unauthorized biography of Kim Jong il" is a good start

I once worked at a computer company and we were told to make sure that no one goes in the back that is an authorized. One time a guy came in he started to walk in the back and I said excuse me who are you and he went off on me that he was from corporate. Later that day my manager went off on me for stopping somebody from corporate who had no credentials on them from entering the back. After that I never bothered to stop anybody from going anywhere they wanted.

@@CliftonPhotographer sounds like my repeating situations with my company. I guess I had hope and thought I could do the right things......repeat the response of the company. :/

So true.. confidence is everything.. I was a lift (elevator for our USA cousins) engineer. You walk into a building you never been to before and ask for the Motor room keys. If you don't know where the motor room is they take you there! I also worked at the Bank of England. On normal service scheduled days they would give you the third degree, phone your company etc.. UNLESS the lift was out of service in which case they never checked anything and nearly dragged you inside to o and fix it!

Janitors and building maintenance. The lowest paid guys and with keys to nearly everything. I worked as a janitor, and there were keys they did not issue us, BUT there was a box that had all the keys for the building, and I had a key to that. Why? Because the office staff would lock themselves out, and SOMEBODY had to have a key to get the backups.

A lock only performs the duty of keeping a determined person from entering. The issue is less about the lock, and more about why the person wants to enter. Have I missed a point?

@@UndergroundHouseAndTechno that's circular thinking. The existence of a lock, presupposes that there is something valuable to the owner to be protected. For every valuable thing, there is somebody that would take it. Thus, the existence of a lock is a sort of catalyst to the desire to bypass it. In fact, the existence of something like a wall safe hidden behind something addresses this head-on. The best lock isn't the strongest, but one that nobody knows exists. As soon as it is known, there is the motive to bypass it.

You haven't been doing building maintenance for long. You never ever let people know you can "defeat" their lock unless you destroy it to enter. If there is any kind of entry without destroying the lock the first person they will blame is you. Regardless of how many keys or fobs they have given out. It's not worth your job or reputation. Remember in their eyes you are one step above the janitor. In other words you aren't shit to them. I don't care how much they smile in your face.

@@mathiso01 100% agree with the ending, but you have to know the conditions to know why it's worth doing. I don't need to go into details, but it is. Sometimes. Rarely. I'd never do it for a retail tenant. Those guys are as shady as they come. Realtors are a half step above that. Ironically, the tenants that are the lowest risk, are the ones who wield real power.

I did pretty much the same thing. My girlfriend lost her key, so I rented a generator and fired up an angle grinder to cut a lock off a bike, on a street corner in a major city. It made a huge noise, a 3' shower of sparks, and no one even looked. I guess I was following the rule about looking like you are supposed to be doing it. Dude has power tools, he must be legit.

What the lockpicking Books teach you when you read it. There probably are keys for every dungeon-chest out there but it's a good thing the Dovahkin can help open it. I mean really. The Bandit leaders don't have keys to their loot-chests on them. What kind of dumb fucks locks all their loot in their chests & YEETs the key away? They're also the special kind of retards as to NOT use the enchanted weapons & armor they so store away in a locked chest. Why doesn't the mages & necromancers use the super powerful potions they probably made & just shelfed? Like, everyone could save themselves if they just take & drink the super-potent health potion just laying around. Why does giants have a loot-chest at the center of their camp? Do they occasionally chop off their toes & sever the mammoth's tusks & snouts to make the potions in the loot-chests? Why is their a loot-chest there in the first place? It's not like someone can drag some yellow, huge-ass chest past the giants. (The only offerings people make are cows with blue lines painted on them) I don't understand. -_-

Used to carry a hard hat and a clipboard to get in to Union work sites in Chicago. If you wear khakis and a dress shirt, work boots, hard hat, people think you're a "manager". Never stopped once...

this concept works for getting out of tickets too. be co-operative and pretend you are innocent of any wrongdoing and insist that while you understand that ignorance of the law is no excuse but if given the chance you wont make that mistake again. note that this only works for minor traffic stuff, you wont get out of something major but the pretense of being authorized is usefull in most situations.

Such equipment can be really badly designed sometimes. When I was in college it was practically custom that the first fifteen minutes of each guest lecture be wasted on setting things up.

it was at max volume on the unit he had control over. someone in the sound room needed to increase the volume of the amp.

I don't watch the show but that's a good line. Sometimes low-tech is the best way to go.

This guy is trying to not only get in, but not make it look like he'd broken in, which is a little more complicated. The simple way in, if you don't care about covering your tracks, involves the appropriate application of a sledgehammer.

thexalon Some thieves prefer to use a stolen car as a more powerful sledgehammer. They steal a car, ram it through whatever, leave the wreck for the victim and cops to waste time handling.

@@thexalon Yea, but if you get in with out doing any damage you have more time to grab what you want. Or even to get out with out being caught.

@@Luminosity47 I believe you because I did a similar stint with an online delivery only company. It was surprising how easy it was getting into gated communities and uber expensive apartments around Texas. They seldom checked my credentials. I was shocked that my boss told me all I needed was my company uniform but I kept my employee badge in case I ran into guards who took their jobs seriously. Once past the guard house, I was able to go anywhere without being questioned. I never could do it, was always on a bit of a tight schedule so i had to drop off the delivery and zoom past the guard house to my next assignment. On a busy day, I could easily rake in $30-40 an hour but the boredom was too much. I would find myself sitting in my car, waiting for a text from headquarters to pick up an item for delivery. Funny thing is, you HAVE to be chummy with all the managers at all the restaurants in town and maybe the neighboring towns or else you'll have tough time sticking to your schedule. And one co-worker kept tons of $1 bills purely for bribery. I'm serious. Slap about $5 or 6 in their hands and you can grab the client's stuff instead of stand around waiting 5-10 minutes.

When lockpicking equipment is easier to acquire than toilet paper....

Because Americans don't use bidets xDDD

@@Albanez39 Who uses bidets?

@@ihatetrainyards4859 Most of the *Mediterranean countries (Italy and Portugal, where installation has been mandatory since 1975, Spain, Albania, Greece, Montenegro, Croatia, Bosnia etc.), and also many South American* countries where Italian and Spaniard immigrants spread its use. While most *African, Middle Eastern and Asian countries* have only started using bidets lately, they have always considered anal hygiene to be important, and *mostly used a small basin (or used the bathtub) to wash their genitals and buttocks* after urinating and defecating. *Nordic countries, especially the Finnish, predominantly use a bidet shower;* basically a shower head installed right beside the toilet. And you should have heard about the *hi-tech toilets produced and used in Japan and South Korea*...which are slowly being adopted also by Americans, Canadians and the British (some of the most known, and few nations to only use toilet paper). I personally don't like these add-on bidet sprays; No matter how powerful the pressure, they are not capable of cleaning your anus properly. It's important to use liquid soap and your hand to rub your anus before rinsing... In Europe, we first use toilet paper to wipe out most of it, and then sit on the bidet to wash our buttocks. This makes things practical, but as long as you use enough soap and water, you don't need toilet paper. I realize you might be ignorant to how common bidets and other forms of anal hygiene are around the world. I have often criticized Americans for their lack of hygiene...and I cringe everytime I see characters in movies defecating and wearing their pants after only wiping once with toilet paper. I have to assume this is how most American do it, even though many women are careful about hygiene and I'm certain they have been washing their private parts for decades. It might seem strange to you, but bidets are important to maintain proper hygiene. If you always defecate in the morning and take a shower afterwards (and wash your buttocks in there), there's no problem...but all of us end up defecating in the afternoon or evening someday or the other. If you can afford it, I really recommend installing a bidet or bidet shower in your bathroom. Can't imagine having sex with a girl one day while your anus is covered in dried flakes of shit...it's disgusting. Sorry for the long comment. Hope you understand and consider my advice. Take care :)

I'm an audio-visual/automation contractor (Australian) who has done work for the NSW Attorney General's Department, I've been in most of the local/district/supreme court buildings in Sydney, also worked in some metro/regional NSW Police and Correctional facilities, and in military facilities a couple of times. Hi-vis, steel caps, mostly empty tool bag and any kind of "visitor" or "contractor" badge will get you in most places short of true secure sites e.g. military bases. Local court buildings in country towns are amusingly relaxed about security, usually. :) I've done fair bit of live event work too. A milk crate full of gaff was considered essential equipment, and woe betide the careless tech who leaves it back at the warehouse forcing the whole crew on a scavenger hunt through the trucks and road cases for all the crusty nearly-finished leftover rolls. Yes... I may have been the one that did this... once.

Inbetween real jobs, I had to work at a grocery store. My next real job was a good hundred miles away, so I convinced a friend to go in to pick up my last check for me. All he needed was the right polo shirt and khakis to fit right in. He didn't even need to forge my name - just a scribble sufficed. He went in all nervous, realized how well it worked, and even stopped to give a manager some advice before leaving. I'm sure this would work at any store with standardized dress codes and reasonable turnover. A permanent "we're hiring" sign is saying they're vulnerable.

So true. In my line of work, if you have a badge on your belt and look like you belong, you can walk in anywhere through the shipping door. No one will ask a thing.

Caught the very next week, after buying crap they couldn't afford, and bragging about their "master heist"... Point of the story: No one could care less about their security, when they can just identify you afterwards, and send the cops to your moms house to pick you up! Kicker is: The Mcdonalds actually made $, from the robbery. They claimed the theft on their insurance, received back some of the stolen $, AND got restitution from the thieves...Now THAT is what I call a successful "master heist"...lmaol

Burt Burt What a couple moronic hamburglars. Now they serving their apple pies to cell mates.

Sophia Chen: Actually, not really. They were all minors at the time, and just got house arrest( 1 went to juvie). All three went straight after paying off their fines. The one I kind of keep in touch with, went on to get his masters in business.

@Det Nine Well, I meant to quell temptation so, yes, it keeps the honest man honest because a truly honest person who's drunk, high, etc....... will think twice and the lock reminds him that it's private property. He reminds himself that he is not a crook. So, like I said, keeps the honest man an honest man. We essentially both said the same thing, cheers, bro :)

Det Nine You just had to throw your two cents in.

In the jail, that is. Once in, there are security systems which keep you in.

I clicked on this video because I couldn't imagine what a physical "pen" tester was. Still didn't get it till I read your comment.

Testing pens on a daily basis sounds like a boring job to do.

That's a different field ;)

It takes a while to develop this skill. If you are good at focusing on what you are doing, you may not be very good at keeping a complete picture of your surroundings. Practice being sure at all times about every single access point that you are responsible for. If you were working a security desk and someone asked, "what is the status of the back door right now?" You should be able to rattle off an answer from a few seconds ago. You should be able to describe the security measures for that door. What sort of lock is it? Is it vulnerable? Is there a camera? Does the camera record or just monitor? Is the door secluded? Who has the key? Even when you are sleeping, you should have some way to be awoken if someone tampers with your shit. There are many effective ways of doing this. You could keep dogs or set up glass bottles or put wind chimes on door knobs. There are countless options. Never stop being 360 aware. Never play music. Never read a book. Never watch TV. Yeah, it sucks. "Who is in the building right now?" "Where is the accountant?" If a person who belongs in the building is in a room they don't belong in, you should know it, and you should find out why right away. If something strange happens anywhere you should file a report about it, even if your boss didn't tell you to. If you notice a lapse in security you should create a written memo about it. These are the sorts of skills that will get you a very good job in security. Any moron can wear a uniform and sit in a chair. You see all these common keys he's talking about? Well, did you know you can replace a lock on your own? You can just buy a lock to replace the existing lock and swap it out yourself. Boom. Now you own that lock. Did you know most security guards don't have most of the keys? The keys they do have are not labeled; they bunch 1000s of keys together and the keychain is useless. I have spoken to site managers who have no idea where the keys are for critical access points. That's absurd. ANYONE could have those keys, including the security guard you fired last week that I'm replacing. First thing you do on a job is take ownership of all the locks and I do mean ALL the locks. Nobody who just hired a security guard is going to be angry when you present them with an invoice for those expenses. You just do it. If you don't have the key to it, the lock needs to be replaced and new keys issued. If the boss is angry about that, you say you didn't have the key to it, therefore it wasn't secure. Have you ever walked into a bank and see 8 cameras behind the teller? Those are fake. Nobody installs redundant cameras. If the camera sticks out like a sore thumb, it's fake. If the camera is old, almost certainly it isn't working. Cameras wear out just like anything else. All cameras are fully zoomed out and almost none can be controlled remotely. I worked in a new prison with broken cameras and nobody fixes those. Even if you create a disturbance your face isn't likely to be recorded. Only the most expensive cameras are useful for active monitoring. Use your eyes and ears. Be a walking radar station. Another skill is to become good at faces. This isn't as difficult as you think. If you notice someone slightly suspicious make a mental note of his face. If you see him again, make another note. If you see him a third time, it's time to confront that guy. He says he's a groundskeeper, but you still demand an ID. He does present an ID, so you verify the picture. You'd be surprised how many security guards don't even check the picture; all they look for is a logo. You need to make sure 1) the ID is current, 2) the picture matches, 3) the employee is currently employed; call HR and verify the individual's employment status, 4) the name on the ID matches on a state ID, 5) the ID is not expired, 6) the employee belongs in that area, 7) the employee is actually supposed to be on-duty. It is your responsibility to verify all this information when you are new. And when the employee walks away make another mental note of his face. If you see him after hours you need to confront him again and find out why he's there. People from outside companies walk on site all the time just like the elevator guy he was talking about. Every single time you see someone from the outside, you run an ID check. You don't give the ID back until you can call that company and verify the employee by his number and also call management and verify that he should be in your building at that time. Everyone understands it is your job to do this. Anyone who gets uppity about it will just have to wait. "I've been coming here for 32 years everyone knows me." That's great. Stand right there until I verify this. The manager will show up and say, "Oh we know this person." That's great. I'm just verifying with his company also. They will laugh at you, but you just smile and keep checking. Even after you've seen a guy many times you should occasionally call his employer to check. A lot of people don't want to cause friction. Don't worry if you disrupt the flow of work a little at first. After a couple of weeks you learn the workflow and everything is running smoothly again. A place will hire a security guard without providing him with much information about schedules and workflows. You need to get this information and keep it current. If something happens on the site and you don't know what it is, you should find out what is happening, even if you think you will be embarrassed. "We're making paper. This is a paper mill." Okay, but YOU don't make paper, and you have no idea why things are done a certain way. You need to know why paper mill employees are in the mill area. You need to know who is managing the work. One exceptionally useful thing to do is to simply ask the manager if everyone there is supposed to be there. It's amazing how rarely this happens. If someone is there who doesn't belong the manager probably knows about it; there often is an intruder, and everyone knows about it except you; then you can confront the individual who doesn't belong and escort him away. Don't count on management to keep things secure. Make a round every hour and check every lock by LOOKING into the keyhole. Check for bits of broken metal and actually pull on the door to make sure it's locked. You will be amazed how often you find unlocked doors. Lock them immediately and keep locking them. Eventually you will be told to leave a certain door unlocked. This is where you refuse. Then management will say certain employees have to get in and out of certain doors quickly. Then you will ask why those employees don't have keys to those doors. They will say there aren't enough keys or nobody knows where the extra keys are. Then you will make copies of those keys and issue them to the employees who need them and send a memo about that to HR for the employees' files. Then keep locking that door. Check every hour. Because I'm telling you right now, word gets around that this or that door is always unlocked and then there is a break-in and then who is going to be held responsible? That's right. The guy they hired to check the locks. Keep the doors locked. When I worked in a prison the inmates called me "real police." When I walked into a cell pod with one other officer, the inmates would yell out, "Man in the block, times 2, REAL POLICE." It was my first security job and this was the worst insult the inmates could think of. I earned that name after two weeks because I would run my fingers under every crevasse and yank every padlock. The inmates assumed I had years of experience and noticed everything. In fact, I had no idea what I was doing and they could have pulled almost anything on me and gotten away with it. But because I put on airs when I walked into the block, gangsters would shout, "Tighten up! Real police!" They never missed an opportunity to hurl this insult. You can be two different kinds of security guard. Be the real kind.

I think that he wanted multiple copies for himself, not other people

It probably came as a 5 pack. Or he has a family and he can now give everyone their own card. Who cares? As long as they can all access the building, and they didn't have to pay the building's extortion fee.

Yes, but now each key is the same, so access logs show only him coming and going. Smarter systems will see he already entered and not allow entry via the same key again until an exit event is logged. There is a reason they use diufferent cards per person. Mostly for knowing who is where, but sometimes a smart system will actually be impleemneted.

We call that Dorking in trade.

@@BestLittleStudio if they were 'smarter' every person entering or leaving would have to use their key. This gets impractical quite fast if you want to leave or enter as a group...

russell zauner that's really cool. Thanks for sharing . How did you make sure it's not tripped by dogs but little people / children can get it though ?

I used to work in a building that had radar sensors to turn the lights on and off in the hallway. They were super-clever, and would automatically adjust their operating frequency so they didn't interfere with each other. Unfortunately, since they were in the 2.4GHz band, they automatically spread to cover the entire band and utterly curb-stomp any attempt to use WiFi, in the computer science building on campus. One of my co-workers resorted to putting an EMF shielding bag over the lights during tests that needed networking.

thanks!

It's fine, no one goes to a DefCon or other security con without making sure they only carry burner kit without anything sensitive on it. Then they either wipe the heck out of it later, or put it in a sandbox to play around with and try tease apart any sneaky things they might've picked up.

Not too late! Start now!

This video had me thinking about how easy my home could be entered but I have a psychotic German shepherd so someone can come in if they want but will seriously regret it. He's not a mean dog, he is just so naturally protective that it's amazing to watch. If a man comes to my door, especially in the winter with heavy clothes on, my dog doesn't just bark, he growls and snarls and shoes his teeth while clawing at the window just trying to get a piece of the guy. It's kind of fun to see people's reaction.

Sweet. Now that's fixed, right?

Do you work around classified information?

It's still locksmithing, it's just a different aspect of it.

This is way less than a 1/4th of what a penetration tester does. These guys physically break into companies/corporations so they can get to the server room, and install their sniffers and other tools so they can infiltrate the network and test for other vulnerabilities. Another method is by social engineering their way into the network without ever stepping foot into the building or perimeter of the building. Another aspect is incident response and other things that usually end up being written into, what some would consider, a lengthy college final project report. This is in turn handed to the client's IT department to fix the vulnerabilities found by the pen tester. They are then hired again, some months later, to see if the company/corporation actually followed through with the implementation of the outlined solutions. So any doors, door locking mechanisms, that need to be replaced with a higher security standard; train employees to be more curious about people they do not recognize coming to a fro in the building; all maintenance people directed to the proper handling person (usually the security guard at the front desk or receptionist); etc.

Getting into locked doors, windows and vehicles is never a huge problem, given time and a few basic tools. If all you want to do is get in, it usually takes about four seconds. And then about 45 minutes to clean up the mess. The clever part is not totally ruining whatever it is you're trying to break into. :)

When you're better at picking locks than remembering that they're there lol.

and attacks of opportunity

and cats

Because honest people will enter any door where there are no locks, and will try to enter every door where there is a lock.

Even "Keep Out!" signs will keep out honest people, lol.
