Risks of Identity and Credential-Based Cyber Attacks: A Real-World Cybersecurity Incident Walkthrough

About this opportunity

Explore the digital footprints of a malicious hacker and uncover their attack path, as we take you for a journey inside the mind of a threat analyst responding to a cybersecurity incident that brought a business to a complete halt. Discover the evidence left behind, uncover the attack path, and understand the techniques used by the attackers. This session will delve into a real-world incident response, showcasing the methods employed by attackers to compromise identities and credentials. Join ISC2 and Delinea as we guide you through the steps taken by cybercriminals during a damaging identity compromise attack, including: • Access Gaining and Patient Zero Identification: Learn how attackers initially infiltrated systems and identified the first compromised system. • Establishing Staging, Footholds and Persistence: Understand how attackers set up their presence within the network and maintained access over time. • Tools and Commands Used: Discover the specific tools and commands utilized by the attackers, including RDP Brute Force, Mimikatz and Responder. • Credential Harvesting and Misuse: See how attackers harvested credentials and used them to escalate privileges and move laterally within the network. • Active Directory (AD) Elevation: Learn how attackers achieved AD elevation to gain further access and control over the infrastructure. Gain a comprehensive understanding of the tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) used by cyber criminals to compromise identities and credentials. This knowledge will empower you to better defend your organization against such cyberattacks.
