SEC575 will prepare you to effectively evaluate the security of iOS and Android mobile devices, assess and identify flaws in mobile applications, and conduct a mobile device penetration test, which are all critical skills required to protect and defend mobile device deployments. You will learn how to pen test the biggest attack surface in your organization; dive deep into evaluating mobile apps and operating systems and their associated infrastructure; and better defend your organization against the onslaught of mobile device attacks.

SEC575: iOS and Android Application Security Analysis and Penetration Testing

“Security” is arguably one of the most challenging disciplines to move from being an individual contributor (IC) to being a manager. While security ICs can perform most tasks in isolation, a manager needs to regularly interact with people both inside and outside of the team. Further, “security” has its own language which can be completely foreign to people outside of the discipline. How do you take security concerns and convert them into a language that senior leaders and “C” levels can understand? Honing these skills will be the primary objective of this course. In this course, we will cover all of the steps needed to stand up and lead a security team within an organization. We start with a clean slate so that every aspect gets covered. If you are in an environment that already has a security team, this can help fill in the gaps. This course will have a heavy focus on how to integrate the security team with the rest of the business units. We’ll look at strategies for increasing funding, as well as converting “security risks” into “business risks” so they are better understood by the organization’s leadership. The course includes a lot of collateral like a full set of pre-written security policies. The goal is to help you build an effective security team in as little time as possible.

Security Defense and Detection TTX is a comprehensive four-day tabletop exercise that involves the introduction to completion of security TTXs (tabletop exercises), IR playbooks, and after-action reports. The exercises are paired with video and lab demonstrations that reinforce their purpose. The training as a whole is compatible with the world’s most popular RPG rules.

The preparation phase will walk students through the creation of specific IR playbooks that can be utilized in any environment as well as during later parts of the class. The next phase introduces the gamification of the TTXs. The students split up into separate “corporations” with assigned verticals, hit points, armor class, budgets, strengths, and weaknesses. Selection of departments and skills allow the players to further their modifiers. Throughout the exercise, each company will take turns rolling their way through decisions such as large purchases, attack severity, defense capability, and incident response decisions.

This will be a high level exploration of the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council. Students will receive a strong understanding of the organization’s history, structure, the standards they maintain, qualified professional certifications, and the lists of validated solutions. This course is a great starting off point for IT or security professionals who reference “PCI” but don’t fully understand everything that entails.

In the Intro to Offensive Tooling class, you will learn about many of the tools used by attackers to identify vulnerabilities and exploit them. This hands-on course covers a variety of offensive tools, such as Nmap, Recon-ng, Metasploit, Proxychains, Responder, and many more. Through a series of practical labs, you will gain experience in using these tools to assess the security of systems and networks. In addition to learning how to use these tools effectively, you will also explore the ethical considerations surrounding offensive tooling, how to responsibly use these tools to protect sensitive information, and prevent cyber attacks. By the end of this course, you will have a strong foundation in offensive tooling and be well-equipped to apply your knowledge to a wide range of security challenges.

Linux is everywhere– running in the cloud, on cell phones, and in embedded devices that make up the “Internet of Things”. Often neglected by their owners, vulnerable Linux systems are low-hanging fruit for attackers wishing to create powerful botnets or mine cryptocurrencies. Ransomware type attacks may target Linux-based database systems and other important infrastructure. As attacks against Linux become more and more common, there is an increasing demand for skilled Linux investigators. But even experienced forensics professionals may lack sufficient background to properly conduct Linux investigations. Linux is its own particular religion and requires dedicated study and practice to become comfortable.
