Bosses love Excel, Hackers too.

Presented at DEF CON 19 (2011), Aug. 5, 2011, 6 p.m. (50 minutes)

Remote applications published in companies are around us in the cloud. In this talk we are going to add ICA and Terminal Server Apps to fingerprinting process, automating data analysis using FOCA. It will allow attacker to fingerprinting internal software, internal networks and combine the info in PTR Scanning, evil-grade attacks and command execution trough Excel files. In the end, we are going to play with a tricky feature in security policies about remote excel that will allow hackers to bypass macro restrictions.
