Weaponar: How Hackers Go From Zero to Takeover
All hackers need is the tiniest foothold inside your network, and they can take over, stealing your most valuable data, launching ransomware attacks, and more. Watch as we demonstrate a full real-world takeover, starting with zero access from the Internet. We’ll show you how hackers:
– Exploit a vulnerability in third-party software to gain a foothold in the network
– Steal usernames and passwords from the hacked computer and use them to gain more access
– Pivot through the hacked server to gain access to internal network resources
– Elevate access to gain control over the entire domain
– Spread throughout your network using normal IT tools (to evade detection)
– Access cloud resources using stolen credentials
Along the way, we’ll provide you with tips for stopping hackers at every stage. Learn how to thwart hackers with simple configuration changes and strong auditing techniques.
