Recent advancements in the Targeted Attacks technology, and specifically to the Lateral Movement phase of it, are about to ignite an Industrial Revolution in this field.
The original Industrial Revolution and its use of modern methods of mass production is said to had brought "improvements in the cost, quality, quantity, and variety of goods available". The Lateral Movement Industrial Revolution will have similar effects on the attack side.
Consequently, it will have grave repercussions on the defensive side. As always when facing a stressful situation, defenders can respond either by: Fight, Flight, or Freeze.
In this talk, we will describe these recent advancements in the field of automated Lateral, followed by a demo and the release of ‘GoFetch’, a new open-source lateral movement automation tool. We will conclude with a discussion on the implications of Lateral Movement industrialization on both attackers and defenders.
