Untraceable

Rave Motion Pictures Polaris 18 (click for online ticket purchase)

Synopsis

Within the FBI, there exists a division dedicated to investigating and prosecuting criminals on the internet. Welcome to the front lines of the war on cybercrime, where Special Agent Jennifer Marsh has seen it all--until now. A tech-savvy internet predator is displaying his graphic murders on his own website--and the fate of each of his tormented captives is left in the hands on the public: the more hits his site gets, the faster his victims die. When this game of cat and mouse becomes personal, Marsh and her team must race against the clock to track down this technical mastermind who is virtually untraceable.

  2. I think it was supposed to be a comedy/spoof or something.

    "He's using Russian DNS servers to stay outside our jurisdiction..."

    later

    "He's smart... he's blocking all foreign IP's..."

    Wha?

    The woman is a cybersecurity specialist, but yet doesn't run her home machine (which she apparently does work on) in a sandbox? She doesn't even run AV/Firewalling? Huh?!? She knows how to rip through private networks to sniff NAT'd IP's, but she doesn't know how to DNS poison to stop the site spreading?? HUH!?

    Yeah... *shrugs*

  3. Hello All!

    Saw it last night...

    As usual I run a week behind.
    The movie?
    Eh.
    I was hoping for more of a technical analysis...But I should have known better.

    Good thing I was half sick to begin with. Helped to have night-time medicine rolling through.
