Kristy Westphal, CISO, ADES, M-O-U-S-E What I Learned at DEFCON 2008ATIC/InfragardSeptember 18, 2008
Who am I? • Much more than the last minute presenter for Infragard • Chief Information Security Officer, Arizona Department of Economic Security • 15 Years in Information Security • Specialize in network and OS security • But cover all areas, including kitchen sink
What the heck is DEFCON? • Been around for 16 years • http://www.defcon.org • The largest underground hacking event in the world • Info sharing of the latest and greatest • Why was I there??
What did I learn? • What was old is new again • Did you really end up where you thought you would when you clicked that link? • What do you really have installed on your desktop? • Is the password you are using really all that secure? • Can I use ‘really’ in a sentence at least one more time on one slide?
Excerpts from actual presentations • All of them appropriately acknowledged
A moment on middleware • Multiple presentations • Xploiting Google Gadgets: Gmalware & Beyond • Tom Stracener and Robert Hansen • Owning the Users with Agent in the Middle • They’re Hacking our Clients! Introducing Free Client-Side Intrusion Prevention • Jay Beale • Attacking Social Networks • Nathan Hamiel and Shawn Moyer
In conclusion…and I know this is shocking… • But there are still a lot of unsecured WAPs out there
Thank you! • Questions?
