Anybody have any good lock / physical security online resources they'd like to share? There's a ton of IT/computer security stuff out there but physical security stuff is harder to come by.

My go to places are the following:

Lock Picking 101 (You are here) http://www.lockpicking101.com
Blackbag blog http://www.blackbag.nl
Insecurity - Marc Tobias' site http://www.thesidebar.org/insecurity/
Schneier on Security (computer & crypto oriented generally but still a good read) - http://www.schneier.com/blog/

Recommendations for non-online stuff (magazines, trade journals) are welcome too. Anything that could be of interest to people who dig lockpicking / physical security stuff.

Cheers.

Cool, thanks.

I realize the new guy with few posts asking for information will inevitably draw the 'use the search FNG' reaction.

I'm pretty Google savy and I have have done that particular search. The point of the post was to get opinions on stuff that people here read and find worthwhile. Seperate the wheat from the chaff so to speak.

Anyway, thanks for the recommendations.

There are a number of publications for those employed as locksmiths that are pretty good, such as Keynotes and Locksmith Ledger. I'm honestly not sure what kind of hoops you would have to jump through to get it if you weren't a locksmith though.
