Presented at
A New HOPE (2022),
July 22, 2022, noon
(50 minutes).
Even if you have never programmed before, you can quickly and easily learn how to make custom hacking tools in Python. The presenters build tools that perform port scanning, brute-force attacks, crack password hashes, and XOR encryption. Python is among the top three programming languages in the world, for good reason: it's the easiest language to use for general purposes. This workshop is structured as a CTF, so each participant can proceed at their own pace. The techniques will be briefly demonstrated, and they will provide tips and help as needed to make sure everyone is able to solve at least some of the challenges. Participants need only a computer and a web browser.
