Session
Think like a hacker in five steps
Everybody knows that you should not plug in a random USB stick, right? With some simple tricks your users might be convinced otherwise. Hacks, data breaches, ransomware. Protecting your company can be hard if you don’t know what you’re looking for. Security starts with just that and what better way to figure out than by attempting to hack yourself or your co-workers.
You might have guessed it already; this talk is about hacking in any way possible. We will explore how hackers operate and I’ll show you some of the tools. Is your application really safe, and what to look for in those applications.
Finally, we will touch upon the most painful “people” hacks, what happens when you’re a good talker? Can you convince users to do exactly those things they are instructed to never do. Can your helpdesk employees be persuaded to reset your password over the phone? Let someone enter your building because they “forgot” their badge.
Now that we are talking about badges, what about physical security. Have you ever seen someone clone a hotel keycard? One randomly selected audience member will get the chance to try just that with some cheap electronics
