      Introducing the NEOISF Mentor-Match Program

Introducing the NEOISF Mentor-Match Program

Over the past year, the board, has had several questions regarding mentor-ship. How to find mentors, how to find proteges, and ways that people can give back to the community.

Starting today, the NEOISF board is releasing its Mentor-Match Program. This is a double blind match-making program focused on connecting well matched members of the community to each other.

If you are a person ready to give back as a mentor, fill out the web form and the NEOISF board will connect you with proteges that match your skill set and commitment level.

Agenda:

Flourishing in a Hostile Work Environment
by Dennis

Abstract:
This is a tale of Dennis’ first real job, as a penetration tester, at a company that is so into security that even the employees must maintain their own defenses… against each other. The story goes from his first day on the job, when he caught a system administrator adding a backdoor before his OS was even finished installing, to the entire office environment becoming a miniature version of threat models that clients would be facing in the real world every day (but probably worse). This presentation covers the attacks Dennis has successfully used against his co-workers and the defenses he has employed to protect himself.

Explanation:
The presentation will include: the attacks Dennis has used to break into his co-workers (both successfully and unsuccessfully) as well as the defenses he has put in place. The nature of these attacks almost always relies on social engineering.

Dennis will be releasing the source code of all attacks/defenses that he has developed. He will also go into detail on his unique Linux setup (both its strengths and weaknesses).

What Makes This Interesting?
The subtext of this talk is the policy of Dennis’ employer (the one who allows the office mayhem to continue). It provides a unique way to inspire creativity and ensure that ALL measures are taken to secure a system. It also gives employees an avenue to learn new attacks/defenses that one might not see in your average pentest.
