TALK INFORMATION

TALK TITLE : Homemade Hardware Keylogger/PHUKD Hybrid
SPEAKER    : Irongeek

ABSTRACT:
He has been doing some work recently on making homemade keyloggers of both the USB and PS/2 persuasion that will take keystrokes, record/replay them, and modify programmable HID payloads accordingly.  This hardware and software is not exactly ready for prime time, but he figured he would share it with you.

Here are just a few of the possibilities:
    * Log all the keys using a MicroSD card
    * Vary payloads based on keystrokes
    * Log username/password and use them later
    * Screw with the person who is typing

————————————————–
TALK TITLE : The Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) – Changing an Industry
SPEAKER    : Dave Kennedy, CISO @ Diebold Inc.

The Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) was just released in its first draft form at DerbyCon 2011. Since then, there has been an overwhelming amount of input placed on changing the way the industry does Penetration Testing. This talk will cover what defines a penetration test, what they are used for, and how you can change the industry for the better.

TALK ABSTRACT:
TBA

SPEAKER BIO: Rob Hartstein
Rob’s experience in the network security industry began approximately
20+ years ago during the infancy of Corporate America’s initial roll
out of Internet access to their end users as well as protecting WAN
network traffic traveling between remotely disparate locations over
POTS lines. Over the years since then he has transitioned from IT
Manager on the corporate side to “hands on” management of Technical
Support organizations for vendors of encryption technology and network
security appliances and is now National Accounts Sales Engineer at
WatchGuard Technologies.

Breach Laws
Glenn Brzuziewski

TALK ABSTRACT:
In light of the recent Epsilon and Sony breaches, Congress is at it
again. Congress once again is considering a bill that will unify the
patchwork of state breach notification laws. Plus, they just
completed hearings grilling Epsilon executives and talking about the
need for a federal statute covering breach notification & data
security. I’m sure you all saw this on CSPAN on June 2 :-) This
talk will present and discuss the state of breach notification laws,
including examples & stories of state legislation, federal industry
egulations and caselaw. In talking to security managers & CSO’s,
this is an area creating much anxiety. This talk will attempt to
clarify the myriad of legal things revolving around PII and breaches.
This is not a technical talk, but promises get your head spinning and
be every bit as confusing as any technical presentation at NEOISF.

TALK ABSTRACT:
Since leaving corporate life to become a consultant 12 months ago I’ve had the opportunity to observe and assess security programs across a wide array of companies. Hospitals, banks, utilities, law offices and grocery stores…everyone does security a little bit differently. One common theme has been that there is no one “right” way to run an effective security program. There are however so many spectacularly different ways to do security wrong! In this presentation I will highlight ten different ways that I’ve seen security NOT work, and which likely WON’T work for anyone, anywhere.

SPEAKER BIO:
Chris Clymer is a senior security consultant with the Advisory Services practice at SecureState, a Cleveland-based security consultancy. Chris is a co-host of the Security Justice podcast, is an organizer of Security Bsides Cleveland, a founding member of the Cleveland TOOOL chapter, and of course a board member of the Northeast Ohio Information Security Forum. He specializes in taking the opposite side of any security argument ;)

Building a completely evasive backdoor without any detection rules
David Kennedy

TALK ABSTRACT:
We all know Anti-Virus is failing us but what about other technologies? We have HIPS, behavioral, heuristics, IPS/IDS and others. This talk will be covering a recent interactive backdoor that I wrote for the Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) that acts polymorphic in nature per each instance and leverages 256AES encryption with a randomized cipher key exchange per connection. Best part is it doesn’t get detected by anything out there and circumvents pretty much every protection mechanism I’ve seen. We’ll go into how it was built, the overall structure and how you can build your own very easily leveraging Python.

SPEAKER BIO:
David Kennedy (ReL1K) is a security ninja and Director of Information Security for a Fortune 1000. Dave is on the Back|Track and Exploit-Database development team and a core member of the Social-Engineer podcast and framework. David continues to contribute to a variety of open-source projects. David had the privilege in speaking at some of the nations largest conferences on a number of occasions including BlackHat, Defcon and Shmoocon. David is the creator of the Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET), Fast-Track, modules/attacks for Metasploit, and has released a number of public exploits. David heavily co-authored the Metasploit Unleashed course available online and has a number of security related white-papers in the field of exploitation. David has a book soon to be released in July from NoStarch Press, “Metasploit: A Penetration Testers Guide”. David is one of the founders of DerbyCon, a hacker con located in Louisville, Kentucky. Lastly, David worked for three letter agencies during his U.S Marine Corp career in the intelligence field specializing in red teaming and computer forensics.
