ATM Vendors Threaten, Stop Research Presentation 134
An anonymous reader writes "A presentation about 'The Underground Economy,' by Italian white hat hacker and security expert Raoul Chiesa, was replaced at the last minute during last week's Hack In The Box conference. The reason behind this cancellation was that Chiesa received legal pressure from ATM vendors over the fact that the originally scheduled presentation covers details of various techniques and exploits of vulnerabilities that cyber criminals use to break into ATMs — flaws that have been known for a long time."

Give me the paper that was banned from the conference. I'll publish it. I don't give a frak.
Slides are sanitized (Score:4, Informative)
Even though this is not the first time that ATM vendors prevented a security researcher to publicly disclose findings about flaws in their devices at a conference, this instance is really surprising, since Chiesa held this same presentation at a couple of security conferences already, and the slides he employed are also available [slideshare.net] online.
The thing is these slides are sanitized, the details of the ATM attack were removed.
Does anybody know where to find a non-sanitized version?
