“Professional Penetration Testing: Creating and Learning in a Hacking Lab”

Threats, attacks, and hacks your organization is facing are becoming more targeted and advanced. To properly prepare, penetration tests and security assessments need to be realistically modeled to mimic the changing threat landscape. This presentation will dive into the technical tricks, tactics, and techniques that attackers are using against you. Understanding how attackers gain access, expand presence, and exfiltrate sensitive data is the first step in defending against it.

Speakers: Dave Norwood, President of Trusted Network Solutions.
                    Jim Brown, Chief Network/ Security Architect at L3 Communications.
“We are Truly in a State of War on the Internet!”

Dave and Jim will dive deep into the most current security topics including a focus on cyber warfare and state-sponsored cyber espionage. The latest security reports will be discussed as well as real-life examples of attacks happening right here in Utah.

Speaker: Heather McCalley, of MALCOVERY Security

“Phishing Intelligence.”

Traditional phishing response in the past has been limited to the game of Whack-A-Mole where phishers make new websites, banks report those to Take Down companies, who then try to shut the site down before very many customers lose their credentials to criminals. By clustering related phishing sites and ordering the clusters by prevalence, investigations and countermeasures can be prioritized and modified in response to the threat.
