Hackfest - Security Lab2010 Feb 9 - 18:30 Etc/GMT-7 Monthly security presentations and lectures, with open PLUG participation occur, on the first Tuesday of every month. Come prepared to learn about a security tool and then start using it. Ethical and legal, as well as liability aspects of testing are covered as we investigate the strange world of computer insecurity from our powerful Penguin perspectives. The Hackfest is specially scheduled demonstration that includes open cracking exploits and IDS. Quarterly Hackfests are open encroachment/IDS events with designated targets and competition that require registration and agreement to acceptable use, as well as understanding of liability and self protection. Extensive setup and tear down, forensics and IDS are required so these events are limited to make the best experience for all attendees. Don't learn to hack; hack to learn. Hack test your installations and source using Linux Security distro tools. Arrangements are happily accepted to coordinate extra credit with local College teachers. Facilities generously provided by John C. Lincoln Hospital Cowden Center Room #1AB Plan on being able to use live CDs if you bring your laptop to lab presentations, but open network access is limited to HackFests, which require pre-registration, and MAC/IP address assignment (for forensics). There is an open call for Backtrack or Security Distro presentations and participants, especially for IDS and forensics. September's BT4 (Kachold) Presentation Hackfester Tees Remember if you are running a security distro your OWN system is VERY EASY to exploit! |
