It's easy to code your own attacks in Python, even if you have never programmed before. This will up your game beyond only using tools others have written. It only takes a few lines of Python to perform port scans or brute-force attacks, to encrypt and decrypt data, and crack password hashes. For more advanced web attacks, we'll use Chrome Developer Tools and Burp to help build our Python scripts.
Participants need to bring a computer with any OS. The workshop is structured in a Capture the Flag format--partipants will solve a series of challenges and earn points on an automated scoreboard.
The attacks will be explained and demonstrated, and detailed step-by-step instructions are provided to get you started on each category of attack. Tutors will help participants individually as needed to make sure everyone is making progress. Some challenges are easy enough for complete beginners, and the hard ones will interest experienced security professionals.
All the training materials are freely available on the Web to everyone, and will remain available after the conference ends.
