You know the drill: Barry is busy. Sad but true. Then again, don’t be sad as I would not want it any other way.<\/p>\n

Just to give you an idea about my next few days: tonight there is a Toool gathering<\/a> in Amsterdam, and it is going to be nice as a lot of our friends from abroad will be visiting it. Then tomorrow morning we will drive to Essen for the security show<\/a>, and on Friday we will all go to Sneek for LockCon<\/a>. On Monday Han and I fly to Malaysia for Hack in the Box<\/a>, and after that things will settle down a bit. <\/p>\n

\"disk<\/a><\/p>\n

During the last weeks I have been quite active in lock research, to prepare my presentations for both LockCon<\/a> and Hack in the Box<\/a>. Han and I always try to focus on the locks they use in countries we visit, and in the case of Malaysia it is ‘disk style locks’. Han Fey being ‘Mr Abloy’ knows a lot about disk locks, although there is a small difference in quality from the kind of locks they use there. As far the organizers of Hack in the Box have told me, the ‘solex<\/a> brand’ is the lock to beat. And when the lock sells for just a 10 or 15 dollar, there seems to be a lot of counterfeiting<\/a> going on. It is hard to understand a $10 or $15 dollar lock is counterfeited, and it is even harder to understand they are using high security holographic seals<\/a> to fight this. <\/p>\n

After doing a little study on some sample locks<\/a> we got, we decided to do a hand-on class on picking these locks. People can register for the class, and pay a small fee to get a pick<\/a> and disk lock and try to open it at our two hour course\/class (and later at the lockpick village). <\/p>\n
