DeepSec 2024 Keynote – The Mind Bomb

DeepSec 2024 ended on 22 November 2024. We took a week off to post-process the event in terms of video material and dialogues. Usually only participants get first access to the video recordings, but because of the threat of disinformation from nation states, we published the keynote early and freely. Randahl Fink explained his take on manipulation of elections and entire societies. Russia, among others, is very proficient in creating election results that keep on surprising politicians and […]

DeepSec 2024 Opening – Conference Days are now live

DeepSec 2024 has opened. Enjoy the two days of presentations, discussions, and insights into how to improve the security of your information technology infrastructure. Our keynote will deep dive into the dangerous world of mind manipulation. Social engineering is a threat from the past. Political engineering is the new kid on the block, and it has the power to reshape and destroy nation states and societies. Fake news, propaganda, and outright lies have become the standard tool of radical […]

Welcome to the weekend! 🙌🏻

If you want to know how Russia is attacking our countries using disinformation, I recently held this 50 minute talk in Vienna, which is free to watch on YouTube:

Dokoukal jsem právě prezentaci @randahl z #DeepSec 2024 a byť to bylo celkem #USA a #Rusko centrický co se příkladů týče, rozhodně to stojí za shlédnutí, byť má hodinu.

Já si ale myslim, že tady na #Fediverse / #Mastodonu a dalších asi víme, jaký jsou rizika #dezinfo na socnetu, kde vyhodí 80% personálu, protože "moderátoři nejsou potřeba", ale jak tohle dostat k běžnýmu Frantovi ze seníku, to je pro mě otázka, na kterou nenacházim odpověď.

Každopádně kdo jste viděl (a klidně i kdo ne), klidně vesele #diskutujme, třeba mě něčim inspirujete 😀

Our 2-day training at @deepsec is a wrap!
It was the first time I delivered a deep-dive focusing entirely on the #psychology interplaying in #socialengineering & #HUMINT operations at a cybersecurity conference. Happy to report, that there is a lot of interest on the topic.

It is very energizing to have a class full of curious minds that do not only explore the concepts being taught, but also apply deep critical thinking in the way they work the class material and the questions they bring up. Their input was helpful for everyone in class.

The entire DeepSec (training & conference) was once again a blast! Being able to teach but then also to sit and learn from the speakers at the conference will always give me a feeling of perfect balance.

A happy highlight is that you also get to meet old and new friends from the community again! 🙏🏻

Thank you to everyone that attended the class, to the friends that made the dinners & breaks so joyful, and to the organizers René Pfeiffer, Susan, & others for bringing us all together for another year! 🥂

Just wrapped up an amazing week at @deepsec 2024!

It was an honor to present with Bruce on emerging AWS cloud security threats. We had an engaging audience with thought-provoking questions about new threats, other cloud providers, and future research directions.

Plus, the IoT CTF challenge was a fun highlight!

Thanks to everyone who made this event so memorable.

What a privilege to speak at in the beautiful city of Vienna! ❤️

At this time of year, the city is full of Christmas markets where you can buy the hot cocktail Glühwein, Christmas bakery, and more.

The architecture has an interesting historic vibe sprinkled with a touch of 20th century modernism.

I really love Vienna for avoiding the skyscrapers, thereby allowing the sun to reach the streets everywhere.

With the airport nearby, I warmly recommend Vienna for a quick weekend trip too.

The Mind Bomb
@randahl

The most used apps in Russia, probably very similar in many other countries which has limitations to free media.

the security risks of the increased decoupling of human interaction from the physical world, and exploring how direct and indirect abuse of social media and their content curation algorithms affecting the minds of millions and potentially be leveraged for hacking democracy itself.

Some cloud security tips I got from conference!
It is critical to know, cloud security is big.

#DeepSec has finished for this year. It’s a very good conference and it’s in Vienna, so check it out next year in November! I have learned a lot, met old and new friends and am quite knackered now- getting older is taking its toll…

#Conference #DeepSec

On to Vienna for #DeepSec tomorrow; maybe Deutsche Bahn is uncharacteristically on time and delivers me there in one piece.
See you there?

#math exam is behind me, now I am looking forward to #elbsides in a few days, and later in the year, Vienna and #DeepSec. But this weekend I aim to be lazy and do *nothing*.

DeepSec wishes a Happy New Year 2024!

We have been radio-silent throughout the December, because post-processing DeepSec and DeepINTEL 2023 took longer than usual. For everyone doing system maintenance, the month of December is also a wonderful opportunity to do some work behind the scenes. Thanks to the security bulletin about SMTP smuggling, there were some additional

Tagesprogramm: #DeepSec. Ist schon super spannend. Die Eröffnung hielt Maria Georgieva über russische Spionage in den baltischen Staaten. Und wow, da sind manche Krimis gar nichts gegen - sorry Kolleg:innen. #ITSec #ITSecurity #Privacy
