Abstract
In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, automation has become a crucial tool in any security researcher’s arsenal. While there’s no shortage of open-source and commercial information security tools, the ability to write your own or modify existing ones remains an invaluable skill. This workshop aims to bring attendees up to date on various automation techniques for accomplishing cybersecurity tasks.
The workshop covers the techniques to cover a broad spectrum of security areas, such as vulnerability discovery & exploitation, network monitoring & security, and modifying existing tools. Targeted at security professionals—including penetration testers, bug hunters, red teamers, threat researchers, SOC analysts, and network/DevOps professionals—the workshop demonstrates and teaches how security tasks can be automated easily.
