VILLAGES

This year we will have a few different villages available for attendees to have hands-on experience with. Below are the details for each village. 

RF Hacking

Village Details

The RF Village is where people come to learn about radio security, wireless technology, software defined radio (SDR), Bluetooth, WiFi, RFID, and other protocols within the usable RF spectrum. These learning environments are provided in the form of demonstrations and hands-on examples to promote learning on cutting edge topics. The RF Village is supported by experts in the area of RF technologies and information security. We also provide free WiFi.

Physical Security

Village Details

In the world of cyber security, many forget that one of the greatest vulnerabilities to an organization is through poor physical security.

Understanding the risks to physical devices and locations is extremely important in protecting our people, data, and systems. In this village we will be exploring a variety of hardware tools that are used by attackers to capture data, gain access, and otherwise bypass security controls.

We will be covering tools such as:

  • key loggers
  • prox cloners
  • physical key manufacturing
  • physical door/lock bypass tools
  • and many more.

There will be several hands on labs learning how to use, improvise and defend against these tools.

If you have ever wanted to learn how to pick locks with paper clips, use a milk jug to open a locked door, or if you want to see how to protect yourself from key loggers, card cloners, and malicious wireless tools, stop by and lets talk about the physical side of cyber security!

Password Cracking

Village Details

The Password Cracking village will be a look at the practical uses of password cracking. From the educational side, as a tool in CTF competitions and training for real world use, to the professional side, as a potential tool for blue teams looking to audit their own passwords to find weak passwords or failing policies. We’ll be covering  things like:

  • What program is best at cracking?
  • What wordlists work well?
  • What methods or processes work best in different scenarios?
  • And More!

KeyTF

Village Details

KEYTF! A twist on the traditional ctf.

Your goal is to decode a lock, measure a physical key, use a photo to reproduce a key and other crazy challenges.

Lockpick Nerf-fights

Village Details

Are you ready for a challenge?

Put your mind and dexterity to the test while reliving gym-class dodgeball flashbacks with an overwhelming time crunch.

The Lockpick Nerf-Fights  Village is a time-based race for two combatants to bypass the lock on a box with a nerf blaster inside. The winner who gains access to the box and manages to hit the opponent first takes the crown.

Instructions:

One-on-one battle

Both combatants will be issued:

  • Lockpicks
    • 1 x Best Buster Snake rake 0.025 Thick
    • 1 x Triple Rake 0.025 Thick
    • 1 x Small Half Diamond 0.025 Thick
    • 1 x Offset Hybrid 0.025 Thick
    • 1 x Short Hook 0.025 Thick
    • 1 x City Rake 0.025 Thick
  • Eye Protection
  • 1 x Short Hook 0.015 Thick
  • 6 x Tension Wrenches

The combatants will be spaced apart challenged to pick two commonly found master locks and race against each other to be the first to strike!

They will have until first strike or until the clock runs out.

 

Combatants may not…

  • Use destructive means of bypass
  • Come in physical contact with opponent or opponent’s box
  • Ask or receive outside aid (This is a dual after all)
  • One or both persons will fail in the event neither bypasses the lock
  • One or both persons will fail if they don’t strike the other with a nerf bolt.

InfoSec Lessons From a
Saguaro Cactus

Chad Kliewer

The recent pandemic has many seeking the outdoors. I find lessons in any environment, even on a recent hiking trip in Arizona. The saguaro cactus is a symbol of strength and perseverance in the harshest elements, just like the sole information security professional in a small / medium business. One must be willing to stand tall and put their experience on the line to help the business to not just know better, but to do better. This can be challenging in an SMB environment where the threats are not always obvious and there may not be clear regulatory requirements. I share proven methods to encourage strong security practices in an SMB world without getting prickly.

Speaker Bio

Chad Kliewer, MS, CISSP, CCSP, is a recovering CISO based in Kingfisher, OK and is currently the Education CPE Evaluator Lead at (ISC)2, the world’s leading cybersecurity professional organization.  He has over 25 years experience in Information Security and Information Technology with responsibilities ranging from PC Tech to CIO, including PCI, HIPAA and SOX compliance.  While mostly in the healthcare field, Chad has also worked in banking, transportation, and currently in telecommunications.

The Evolution of Ransomware as a Service

David Barton

Ransomware continues to wreak havoc in all industries.  The thing is, its not a new issue.  Ransomware has been around a very long time.  Now its evolved into Ransomware as a service, untraceable payments, and events that compromise human health care.  In this session, we will explore how it all began and how you can put controls in place to limit the damage Ransomware can do.

Speaker Bio

David Barton is Chief Technology Officer at High Wire Networks. He oversees High Wire technology solutions and leads the sales engineering teams for High Wire’s Overwatch Managed Security Marketplace, which enables partners to deliver comprehensive cybersecurity that’s easy to sell and easy to buy for an affordable subscription.

The Cyber Insurance Market: Pitfalls and Premium Hikes

Kevin Sesock

Rising premiums? Denied coverage? Told to buy “cyber insurance” and you’re completely lost? Unlike car insurance, Cyber is an immature, rapidly changing market, with skyrocketing rates and cancellations, and even war clauses being used to deny claims. Let’s discuss the pitfalls of cyber insurance.

The Digital Oilfield Was a Great Idea - How Can We Make It Better?

James Cabe

3 big problems in the digital oilfield: first it relied heavily on logging which is hard to bring back home, second it required passwords, third it ran on windows. We will show how we can attack the digital oilfield all the way down to the canopy and then a better way of fixing the problems.

Speaker Bio

Digital Forensics: Reconstructing an Attack in Modern Web Apps

Kris Wall

Application security struggles to keep up with modern development. Attacks against applications will only continue to grow. Web3? DevOps? Pipeline? Supply chain? With so many buzz words amidst a myriad of undiscovered vulnerabilities, where does your incident response team start after an incident?

Speaker Bio

Kris Wall is the Chief Technology Officer and Senior Penetration Testing/Digital Forensics expert at Critical Fault. Kris worked for over a decade for an MSP before freelancing for a few years as a developer. After developing several terribly vulnerable web apps, Kris became obsessed with fixing vulnerabilities in his code and giving talks about this journey. It was then Kris got into offensive security.

3:00 PM

Worst Practices for Malicious Admins

Andrew Lemon

We’ve all been beat to death with best practice this or NIST standard that. Attackers have moved away from exploits and worms and into living off the lan tactics masquerading as network admins. In this talk I’ll cover the tools, techniques, and procedures that I use on engagements and the tricks I’ve learned from responding to ransomware incidents. These aren’t theoretical attacks, these are all dirty red team tricks I’ve executed or defended against. Everything from malicious active directory changes to persistence via attacker controlled VPN. We’ll discuss how we discover these attacks and how you can defend against them.

Speaker Bio

Andrew Lemon is currently a Principal Security Engineer at Alias where he serves as the head of Reconnaissance and Destruction. His job entails designing new and creative solutions to enhance the teams offensive capabilities, Incident response procedures, and Digital Forensic tooling.

3:00 PM

Building Effective Attack Surface Management Programs

Phillip Wylie, CISSP, GWAPT, OSCP

An essential part of Attack Surface Management (ASM), Offensive Security can be misunderstood and underutilized. Offensive Cybersecurity utilizes a threat actor perspective to assess security postures. When combined correctly in an ASM program, the synergy makes for a more effective program.

Speaker Bio

Phillip Wylie is a cybersecurity professional and offensive security SME with over 18 years of experience, over half of his career in offensive security. Wylie is the Tech Evangelism & Enablement Manager at CyCognito. He is a former college adjunct instructor and published author.
