Wielding Katana: A Live Security Suite

Wielding Katana: A Live Security Suite

What if we told you all you need to totally own a workstation and potentially a network was a single flash drive? Well … a flash drive and some time to play. The Katana flash drive is a bundle of many of the most popular live security operating systems and hundreds of portable Windows applications. In this talk we will demonstrate how to set up any computer in a matter of seconds as a live environment for pen-testing, forensics, and more.

We’ll show you all that Katana has to offer to help you learn and work in the real world. Katana Bootable lets you boot from live distros like Backtrack and Ophcrack. The Katana Tool Kit “portably” runs tools like NMAP, Wireshark, and Netcat from any Windows desktop. You’ll learn how to avoid anti-virus and run customized portable virtual environments. Throughout the presentation we’ll talk about using Katana in real pen-testing scenarios. We want you to walk out with the ability to turn any computer into your own pen-testing box at the plug of a drive.
