2nd Annual Virginia Cybersecurity Education Conference

As with most things in the Security realm, before you can defend against attacks, you need to understand how the attackers work before you can defend and mitigate against them.

This invaluable hands on (BYO Laptop) workshop will showcase some new Cyber Range college/intermediate level penetration testing labs that the Cyber Range is in the process of publishing for instructor general availability. Come experience some of this powerful hands on content as you use your Range Kali attack VM and vulnerable target Windows VM to grok how these attacks actually function. After learning how to utilize these tools to pentest our own systems, we find ourselves in a better place to discuss the measures one would need to take to prevent or mitigate against such attacks and in the process, increase our own network security profile

Workshop Labs and Handouts Include:
- Lab 1 - Launching & Defending Against a Windows DoS Attack
- Lab 2 - Password Credential Keylogging
- Lab 3 - Trojan Malware - popping a reverse shell on a target
