RISE Meeting: NTLM Relaying – Tricks of the Trade

We are excited to welcome Logan Diomedi, who will be delivering a deep-dive session on the current state of the art in NTLM Relaying. This session serves as a comprehensive primer for those looking to master the “Tricks of the Trade” and rise from simple relaying to total domain royalty.

Whether you are an offensive practitioner or a defender, Logan will walk you through the essential tactics employed in modern environments. The talk will cover existing tooling, basic and advanced tactics, and the specific primitives required to navigate, and eventually rule, the complex attack surfaces of Active Directory.

The session will demonstrate how existing tools and basic tactics can be leveraged to seize control of a network environment.

Meeting Details:

We will be meeting at Virginia Western Community College in the Hall Family Business/Science Building. Take the stairs to the left and go to the third floor and go to the CyberSecurity lab in room M302.
