Abstract:
Join Snehal Antani, CEO of Horizon3.ai, for an eye-opening session where he’ll discuss real-world examples of what NodeZero discovered in networks just like yours. You’ll hear about how fast and easy it is to compromise some of the largest networks in the world – with full domain takeover – often in minutes, and sometimes, without even exploiting a CVE. Discover how autonomous pentesting helps find unknown weaknesses in your infrastructure that could quickly result in ransomware exposure.
During this session, you’ll learn how attackers:
- Use OSINT and password spraying to takeover systems without ever targeting CVEs.
- Land and expand with legitimate credentials, then poison assets to take over domains.
- Find cloud credentials and use them to compromise cloud services.
