- Mul-T-Lock: Design and Security
- Anti-Forensics: The Keys to the Farm
This paper discusses Mul-T-Lock telescoping pin-tumbler designs throughout the company's nearly 40 year history. This includes the Classic, Interactive, CLIQ, 3-in-1, MT5, and MT5+. In addition, attack techniques against Mul-T-Lock systems are evaluated. There are several appendices that include keying and coding information for Mul-T-Lock locks, as well as a patent reference for (almost) all Mul-T-Lock models and components.
This paper discusses different types of anti-forensics lockpicking tools and how well they evade forensic detection, particularly tool mark examination through microscopy. We then look at a lockpicking tool called the "Tricerapick" and its valiant effort to evade forensic detection.
