Just so folks know: Blaze has released another paper, this one on safe and vault security. I'm not as irate about his activities as some folks are. I'm not 100% sure I want to discourage him from _working_ in this area; he may yet expose some points we aren't aware of. I just wish he'd worth with the security industry rather than across us.
I've given it a VERY cursory scan, and so far my reaction is the same as to his previous entry in this field: I haven't yet found anything the industry isn't aware of, and he misses some significant points. He also fails to consider social engineering issues either in the specific engineering points or in the general decision of where/how to publish. It's not a bad overview for the beginner, but overall it isn't particularly creative nor useful. If I were grading it as graduate work I'd give him a B-; competent library-research paper, but I don't think it significantly advances understanding in either his field or ours.
And I think the choice of where and how to release it, and how much well-known info is used as filler, suggests he's a bit desperate to meet his academic publish-or-perish schedule.
