I've been waiting for Peter Gutmann's slides to appear on line
since I first saw them some months ago. Well worth studying:

http://regmedia.co.uk/2014/05/16/0955_peter_gutmann.pdf

Favourite quotes: "It's probably at least some sort of sign
of the end times when your conference badge has a rootkit."

"There were so many other ways to render DKIM ineffective
that no-one bothered attacking the crypto."
