Dry Erase Marker - Modified To Hack Into Onity Hotel Room Door Locks

We recently published an article in this blog that has proven to be quite popular. The article:  Hacker beats The Worlds Most Prolific Hotel Room Door Lock  has been viewed about 5000 times since I wrote it.

It reprints an article from another source about Cody Brocious, who discovered a rather simple hack for defeating the most commonly found hotel room door lock made by Onity.

Now, a researcher for Trustware Spider Labs has taken the steps first discussed by Cody, a step further and built the entire mechanism into a dry erase marker pen, effectively creating a very covert tool that would easily pass security officers eyes without alerting them.

Further details about this can found in the source below, but take the time to view the video below.
