Enterprise Penetration Testing Methods By Rod Soto

During this comprehensive course, tools and methodologies that are used during penetration tests in enterprise network/application environments will be detailed.
The course will utilize a lab environment for a hands-on instruction of manual penetration testing methods, in addition to training for use of exploitation frameworks, such as Metasploit, Empire and others.

The focus will be geared towards methodology, processes, vectors, tools, and techniques used for exploitation in areas such as infrastructure, web & cloud. By the end of the course, the student will have an in-depth understanding of the underlying principles of network/application exploitation and will have gained experience in the successful execution of attacks.

An introduction to PenTesting and Hacking Wi-Fi


Wi-Fi is ubiquitous today. You can find it everywhere. At Starbucks, at the hotel, at the airport, on the plane, everywhere.Contrary to what most people think, Wi-Fi is incredibly safe, if configured properly. That’s the catch, most companies do not configure it correctly.
In this training session we will cover how to break into Wi-Fi, and therefore, how to make it more secure.


Subjects to include:

So why is WEP bad?

WPA2 is completely safe, right?

Why you should or shouldn’t use PSK.

Why you should or shouldn’t use Enterprise Secure Wi-Fi.

So I use Enterprise, how did they break in?

Why should I upgrade to WPA3?

What’s wrong with Open networks, and how can I fix it?

"I’m ok, we run WPA3, however, because of older clients, we need to use transition mode. Wait... how did we get hacked?"

What’s a WIPS, and why do I need one?

How do I fix all the above issues?


You will see demonstrations of Wi-Fi attacks, and perform attacks yourself. You will learn how to better defend your wireless networks.


Minimum Course Requirements: 

- Bring a Laptop

- Bring a working copy of Kali Linux (VM, or on a Raspberry Pi 3 or 4).

- Get two of these:

Target Audience: 

This course is for anyone interested in Wi-Fi security (and we really should be!) Whilst no experience with Wi-Fi (other than connecting to a network) is needed, any Wi-Fi experience will benefit. 
Ability to use and work with Kali Linux.

Bio:

Phil Morgan is a senior Wireless engineer holding several certifications in networks and Wi-Fi. He is CCIE #5224, CWNE #322, and CWISE #4.
Phil has worked with Wi-Fi since 1998, is a member of the IEEE, and has been involved in the development of IEEE protocols and standards.

Practical Cloud Security for AWS Infrastructure by Jayesh Singh Chauhan 
With the rapid adoption of cloud-hosted infrastructure, there is an innate need for skilled personnel to persistently defend organizations against threats. While AWS onboarding is relatively streamlined, the continuous security of AWS infrastructure and its services is an entirely different ball game.

Course Description

The massive adoption of cloud services with ever-growing numbers of AWS services has left the security team with the lion’s share of work to identify, analyze and secure an organization’s assets across cloud infrastructure. Multiple cloud accounts have added more stress to the whole equation of securing cloud infrastructures. The security team has to cater to the growth and adoption of different services in the cloud and make sure that there is no hole left to get into the infrastructure and do the lateral movement.

This training approaches cloud security with a multi-layer approach by understanding the perimeter of assets/services, implementing cloud-native security services, and getting into the detailed security of the important resources.
While we are performing secure implementation of AWS resources/services, the hardening of OS, CI/CD, Containers, and Kubernetes clusters also become an integral part of the security team’s realm.

“As many services” is directly proportional to “As many avenues to abuse”!

While cloud-native security solutions are relatively easier to implement and are optimized as per their respective environments, the training doesn’t limit the security to cloud-native solutions. This training gives an equal amount of open-source options to implement a similar or better security posture without depending on cloud-native security services and enables the organization to have more granular control over the security of its infrastructure.

Course Topics:

●  Introduction to AWS and its services
●  Roles vs Policy
●  Auditing cloud resources
●  AWS Trusted Advisor
●  AWS Guard Duty
●  AWS Inspector
●  Setting up AWS WAF and understanding its limitations
●  WAF testing
●  Subdomain takeover detection
●  Setting up a SIEM
●  Hardening OS
●  Secret/Sensitive Key Detection in code
●  Docker Security
●  Kubernetes Security
Why is this class needed?

●  While the industry has aggressively adopted AWS infrastructures, the security up-skilling hasn’t happened at the same pace. This training is aimed at bridging this gap.
●  The training focuses more on practical and hands-on exercises where participants can play around and acquire the skill set required to successfully manage cloud security for their organizations.

Key Takeaways

●  Security posture management of AWS
●  Cloud attack vectors and their implications
●  Leveraging open sources for granular control of security

Audience Skill level - Beginner/Intermediate

Target Audience

Security Analysts, System Administrators, Pen Testers, Cloud Engineers, DevOps Engineers, or anyone interested in securing AWS
The class is designed for folks who are beginners or at an intermediate state in their cloud security skills

What You’ll Need to Bring to the Class

●  Basic understanding of linux, SSH, SCP, and git
●  A working personal AWS account, with a credit card attached to it
●  A laptop with unfiltered internet access and administrative privileges (to install tools), with a minimum of 4GB RAM

What You’ll Receive as Part of the Class

●  AMIs
●  Practice Materials
●  Cheat Sheets for securing AWS infrastructure

Attacking & Defending Kubernetes by  Rajesh Kanumuru


Kubernetes has emerged as the leading container orchestration and management platform for on-prem and cloud environments. However, Kubernetes is a multi-headed beast with several minutes and nuanced security configuration parameters. In addition, attackers take advantage of these insecurely configured and designed Kubernetes deployments and perform deep incursions into the organization’s assets. 

This training is a hard-core hands-on view of Kubernetes Security from an Attack and Defense perspective. We’ll be exploring Kubernetes Attacks with hands-on labs and to support the potential vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, we’ll be exploring multiple key aspects of Kubernetes Security and Security configuration to prevent attacks on a Kubernetes Cluster based on its workloads and applications

Key takeaways 

  • A practical and in-depth view of both attacking (Red Team) and defending Kubernetes Clusters. Gives participants a deep insight into security configuration, implementation, challenges, and limitations of Kubernetes Security
  • Covers some of the unconventional areas of Kubernetes Security in terms of supply chain attacks and attacking and defending the Kubernetes components itself
  • Holistic coverage of defense techniques for Kubernetes with detailed coverage of Kubernetes Defense and Vulnerability Assessment
