Trying to locate a White/Grey/Black hat talk on Rapport by Trusteer
Hey guys/girls.
I'm trying to located a video I watched last year (2015, video was from before that), that talked about Rapport by Trusteer. It was a fairly scathing review of the software and I'd like to be able to track it down again but for some reason it seems to have vanished.
It was about 45 minutes long, and was at one of the White/Grey/Black hat conferences. Basically called Rapport out as being complete garbage sold to bankers that don't know any better.
[Edit] Found it, 44CON talk on the subject by Neil Kettle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EimZQgt7WPg

This SW is now common place on government and corporate PCs. I at any given time can activley watch and record anything you do.
It's common and worthless. I'm dealing with it at the consumer level and I have yet to see a machine run worse by removing it (removing it of course is substantially more difficult than it should be, it uninstalls as if it was just straight up Malware).
I actually contacted Neil on his Facebook page to see if anything has changed. He confirmed that it's just as worthless of a piece of software now as it was in 2011 when he gave his talk at 44CON.
I don't think we are talking about the same SW package. θ¿θ
Rapport by Trusteer is software that banks are pushing on clients trying to claim that it's anti-fraud, when in reality it's no such thing (nor is it realistically capably of being such a thing).
My post was in reference to other SW that the governments and corporations use that is a true keylogger and timed screenshot archival. Pus a task/site tracker.
