Proactive Defense: Emulating Real World Adversaries

Join me as we look at the wide array of skills required to emulate modern adversaries. Security has come a long way from the 2000s due to automation, artificial intelligence, exploit mitigations, detection capabilities, and many other controls and processes. Modern offensive security teams and attackers can no longer rely on traditional tactics, techniques, and procedures. Whether it be developing custom implants to evade EDR/AV, reverse engineering patches to quickly weaponize privately disclosed vulnerabilities, or leveraging AI to accelerate adversarial campaigns, successfully compromising a target environment requires cutting-edge skills.

In this presentation we will address these focus areas to gain a better understanding of the current threat landscape.
