Hunting Linux malware for fun and $flags
Server-side Linux malware is a real threat now. Unfortunately, as for its
Windows counterpart, most system administrators are inadequately trained or
don’t have enough time allocated by their management to analyze and
understand the threats that their infrastructures are facing. This tutorial
aims at creating an environment where Linux professionals have the
opportunity to study such threats safely and in a time-effective fashion.

In this introductory tutorial you will learn to fight real-world Linux
malware that targets server environments. Attendees will have to find
malicious processes and concealed backdoors in a compromised Web server.

In order to make the tutorial accessible for a range of skill levels several
examples of malware will be used with increasing layers of complexity — from
scripts to ELF binaries with varying degrees of obfuscation. Additionally,
as is common in Capture-The-Flag information security competitions, flags
will be hidden throughout the environment for attendees to find.

Skills to acquire:
* Live system incident response and forensics using Linux’s standard tools
* System hardening
* Introduction to reverse-engineering obfuscated scripts and binaries

Price:
* 150$ Regular (ID required)
* 75$ Student (ID & Student proof required)

Presented by:
Olivier Bilodeau and Marc-Etienne M.Léveillé both are malware researchers at
ESET Montreal

NOVEMBER 4-5th

Tactical Sec Ops
How often have you found yourself justifying the time needed to fix a
vulnerability to management or looking through a system trying to decide if
its been compromised or not? Or being surprised when new systems suddenly
appear on the network? Tactical Sec Ops is about making these problems
easier to deal with and being prepared to respond when they do. You will
learn how to use open source software to speed your ability to get things
done and protect your environment! Among the various topics, the course will
cover:

- Distributed network scanning using nmap
- Using Metasploit to demonstrate vulnerability risk
- Performing network traffic analysis
- Analyzing systems for signs of compromise
- Automation using Python
- Strategies for planning your security operations

Jason Wood will be the instructor of this class. He will be guiding the
students in this VERY hands-on session. The course will contain two days of
materials and practical exercises. The exercises will allow the students to
apply the tools and techniques they learned and combine them to solve real
problems.

* Price : 1250$CAD
