Cyberattacks rarely begin with a big bang. Attackers often move unnoticed through corporate environments for weeks before striking.

Yet what if these risks were visible beforehand?

Real-life pentests! Creative attack paths into the heart of the network. It’s not always the big exploits – often small vulnerabilities and clever ideas are enough. In this interesting and insightful presentation, the InfoGuard pentesting team uses real-life examples to show how zero-day vulnerabilities, misconfigurations or social engineering attacks opened the way for complete network takeovers. A must for security teams, IT managers and anyone who wants to understand how creative penetration testing works—beyond the standard checklists.

The InfoGuard Penetration Testing Team has explored the topic of user enumeration on public platforms in more detail. We show the many ways in which this attack target can be achieved, the extent to which artificial intelligence helps an attacker to do this, and the unexpected effects this seemingly inconspicuous vulnerability can have.

Stephan Berger, Head of Investigations at InfoGuard, will share insights from recent InfoGuard CSIRT security incidents and present the seven biggest security failures of companies that still open the door to attackers far too often.
