/ roanokeinfosec

For December we have asked that Logan Diomedi return and give us an in-depth dive into Burp Suite.  As you may remember Logan gave us a quick overview of Burp Suite back in February and many of you requested more so here it is. 

Logan Diomedi and Burp Suite, Part 2, Pro Edition

Burp Suite is one of the many free tools available in Kali Linux.  Burp Suite allows anyone to test and verify their web applications using various techniques from initial mapping and analysis of an application’s attack surface, to finding and exploiting security vulnerabilities.  In this meeting Logan will show us how he uses Burp Suite in his “Red Teaming” pen tests and how you can use the tool to test your own websites.

December 10th @ 5:30pm; This will be a virtual meeting

We’re back!  RISE is back for the month of July.  Once again, we will be hosting a virtual meeting, but we are hopeful that we will be able to meet in person again very soon.  This month we are going to cover end to end password attack and defense.  So, what does that mean exactly?  First, we will cover how nefarious actors steal your user’s credentials and how they use it, then we will discuss what free tools are available to audit passwords and defend against such attacks.   Topics covered will be things like Hunter.io, Phishing-Frenzy, Password Spraying, Hash-Cat, DPAT, have i been pwned, MFA and others.

This will be a high-level overview of the entire kill chain process however if we determine that more discussion is needed in one area, we will discuss getting it on the calendar for a more in-depth review.  I am looking forward to seeing all of you at the next meeting.  Be on the look out for more information regarding online meeting information.
