Security Guards -- LOL!

Presented at NolaCon 2017, May 20, 2017, 2 p.m. (Unknown duration).

During onsite “black box” penetration assessments, it is quite common that you will encounter a security guard, especially when forced to enter via a lobby or other single point of entry. For situations where guards are unavoidable, we will share several war stories and social engineering techniques that have helped us turn these potential issues into successful engagements. During this presentation you will hear real-world stories from various Red Team assessments that we’ve performed. These assessments will be broken down to discuss the various social engineering and physical security bypass methods and tools used. We will also provide our recommendations for remediation and provide the audience the opportunity to ask questions. 3 things you will learn from this session: – Hear real world scenarios used during red team, physical and social engineering assessments. – What techniques we use vs. security guards and tenacious employees. – What tools we use such as forging fake badges and documents, physical entry/bypass tools and social engineering/manipulation techniques for successful assessments.
