Hacking Dumber Redux: More Dumberer
Tim Medin to Speak at Wild West Hacking Fest San Diego
Red Siege Principal Consultant Tim Medin will present at 4pm Wednesday, March 11 at the Wild West Hackin’ Fest – Way West in San Diego, California.
In Medin’s presentation “Hacking Dumberly Redux: More Dumberer” he will discuss the dumbest red team tricks and hacks encountered over the years.
“We are going to take the A out of APT (again), because so few attackers really need to use advanced techniques,” Medin said. “We’ll also discuss the simple defenses that make an attacker’s life much more difficult.”
In addition to his expert instruction, Medin will be bringing a new Red Siege shirt to giveaway and will have a challenge/puzzle for attendees to attempt for commemorative coins.
“We were delighted to be invited to the Wild West Hackin’ Fest – Way West. Every time we present we want those in the audience to have immediate, applicable insights to implement and to have a great time,” Medin said. “At the end of the day, we are all on the same side, trying to stop the bad guys before they break in and cause harm. We are always happy to share what we have learned through our work at Red Siege.”
Wild West Hackin’ Fest – Way West will be held from March 10 – 13 in San Diego, California with an associated two day training on March 10 and 11.
