Scouting report
Walked onto the Black Hat 2010 stage, ran his Jackpotting demo, and made two ATMs pour out cash in front of the room. Then turned to insulin pumps and pacemakers, showing that implanted medical devices could be attacked wirelessly. Died in 2013, days before he was due to present that research.
Curator’s note
The most theatrical demo in the history of the conference circuit.
