Hacktivity 2012 - Joe McCray - Big Bang Theory - Pentesting high security environments
Published 2012-11-23
This presentation focuses on pentesting high security environments, new ways of identifying/bypassing common security mechanisms, owning the domain, staying persistent, and ex-filtrating critical data from the network without being detected. The term Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) has caused quite a stir in the IT Security field, but few pentesters actually utilize APT techniques and tactics in their pentests. This presentation picks up where Joe left off in last year's presentation "You Spent All That Money And You Still Got Owned" and takes it to the next level. Joe will also be releasing a new tool as well.

I run into this video by accident today. I cannot believe how someone can be such a good speaker, entertaining and knowledgeable. That crowd was more like the Walking Dead...Poor Joe. Outstanding job.
-
Fantastic presentation, bad crowd.

This guy is literally the best. Only thing that could have made this better: mic on the audience. I sure hope there are more lectures from him on youtube.
-
Wow he really knows how to explain things well.

Awesome presentation. I'm not even an InfoSec guy, but i got alot out of this one. It's great when someone is a great presenter in addition to being technically proficient.

Nice, learned some new tricks and methodology concepts of pentesting. Just after watching that DEFCON about pentest's dead. The way he speaks makes learning easier.

new to the field , this guys makes it look easy .

Brilliant. Both insightful & completely understandable for someone relatively new to web application security. (ie. myself) And important broader message re, infosec "high security" environments in general: even expensive tools, without good people to run/use them, suck. (If only that were as true for attacking tools as it is for defensive tools...)
-
