500 - Heimdall's Hamlet Learning Session

Presented at Texas Cyber Summit 2019, Oct. 10, 2019, 11 a.m. (420 minutes)

Welcome to Heimdall’s Hamlet, a combination workshop and threat hunting CTF open to everyone - no experience required! Join us throughout the event for a relaxed experience of learning and hunting. Thursday is a pure learning and workshop day. We will have two scheduled walkthroughs on how to setup Elastic and moloch from the ground up. These will be held at noon and 4pm, where one of our instructors will do a guided walkthrough. All that is needed is a laptop with a virtualization software - and preferably come with Ubuntu 18! Don't want a guided walkthrough, or need more help? Then just come by throughout the day and stop, chat, and learn with us! As long as someone is available, we will help you with any issues you encounter! Don't have time to setup? Join us later and we'll provide a VM! On Friday, join us for a relaxed day of hunting through various open source datasets we have available for you. We'll be hosting two additional walkthroughs - noon and 4pm, walking through how to use your newly setup elastic and moloch with some of these datasets. This is a great opportunity for anyone who needs a refresher, wants to share their knowledge, or just want some practice! All ready? Then join us on Saturday for a quick paced CTF with advanced level datasets custom made for the event. Need a reason? Prizes include an Uber badge, hak5 gear and nostarch press vouchers! You must be present to participate, and must be present at the awards ceremony to win. Look for live updates on twitter through @heimdallshamlet
