“The Clock Is Ticking: Prepping for Your Network Penetration Test”
by Christian Duncan
Track 3 – Kilo Bytes · 11:00 am · Nov 14
Scheduling a penetration test means you’re not waiting for a breach to show you where your security gaps are. What many organizations don’t realize is that the preparation and communication around a network penetration test matter just as much as the testing itself. Here’s what you need to know before, during, and after a network penetration test, so your organization is ready to make the most of every finding.
“No Exploit Required: Why AD CS Keeps Getting You Domain Admin”
by Zach Tackett
Track 1 – Giga Bytes · 2:00 pm · Nov 14
Memorizing ESC1, ESC3, ESC8, and the rest doesn’t help when you hit a custom AD CS configuration that fits no category. This talk breaks down the trust model behind certificate-based authentication and why certain setups let attackers influence identity or abuse authentication flows. You’ll leave able to spot certificate attack paths by understanding what a certificate lets an attacker do, whether you’re reviewing a template or reading Certipy output.
“Why ‘Domain Admin’ Isn’t Always the Goal”
by David Young
Track 2 – Mega Bytes · 3:00 pm · Nov 14
For many pentesters, getting Domain Admin has become the definition of success. But that tunnel vision can miss the risks that matter most to the business. This talk reframes offensive security around objectives, using real-world cases where Domain Admin was irrelevant, and shows how to scope for goals, map attack paths to business impact, and recognize when you’ve already achieved the mission.
