Are you excited about hacking and want to be a pentester in the next few years? Let this talk be your guide in understanding what is required to effectively assess a network and all of its associated components. We’ll review subjects ranging from assessment toolsets, environment configurations, timelines, what to do when you’ve accidentally brought down the entire finance department, and how to gently handle the situation when you tell the CIO his baby is ugly.

These techniques and processes can are geared towards to your typical penetration testing processes. The talk has been structured so that not only veterans can benefit from the processes, but the newer/aspiring pentesters can establish a solid foundation for their own work! Hack on.

PushPin is an uptight, perfectionist, who is very rarely content working with idiots and enjoys his Jell-O Pudding cups. He can neither confirm nor deny working for any of the three letter agencies that oversee WMDs, high energy weapons [LASERS, YO], and play around with other countries. It is literally impossible to see him without his laptop at any given time during the day and has been told frequently to put it away in public; otherwise, you’ll find him at work devoid of any form of social life.
