Fresh off its acquisition of Hubble Technology, proactive security leader spotlights 360-degree attack surface visibility and enhanced risk prioritization via The NetSPI Platform

MINNEAPOLIS and LAS VEGAS, July 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NetSPI, the proactive security solution, will be participating in several speaking sessions and appearances during Black Hat USA 2024 and DEF CON 32, taking place at the Mandalay Bay Expo Hall in Las Vegas from August 3 to 13.

On the heels of its June 2024 acquisition of Hubble Technology, a cyber asset attack surface management (CAASM) provider, the company will showcase The NetSPI Platform at Booth #2750 in the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. The integration of CAASM into The NetSPI Platform will enable security teams to achieve complete visibility of rapidly evolving attack surfaces and better prioritize vulnerabilities across the entire IT estate.

Come to the booth to discuss your proactive security needs and see NetSPI's Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS), External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Cyber Asset Attack Surface Management (CAASM), and Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) solutions in action. You can also book an on-site meeting with NetSPI here.

Additionally, NetSPI will host five speaking sessions during Black Hat, DEF CON, and BSides Las Vegas, the most the company has had since its inception. Talks include:

The Tale of Two ASMs: EASM and CAASM
Thursday, August 8 | 1:30-1:50 PM | Business Hall Theatre D, Mandalay Bay
NetSPI's Chief Product Officer Vinay Anand and Chief Technical Officer Tom Parker will discuss how to improve continuous threat and exposure management (CTEM) by pairing EASM with CAASM. The duo will address the challenge of mapping a complete view of the attack surface, how EASM and CAASM work together to reduce attack surface sprawl, and tangible steps to achieve CTEM.

Beams & Light Streams: Letting Hackers Go Pew Pew, Building Affordable Light-Based Hardware Security Tooling
Thursday, August 8 | 11:20 AM-12 PM | Islander EI, Level 0
NetSPI's Sam Beaumont, Director of Transportation, Mobility, and Cyber Physical Systems, and Larry "Patch" Trowell, Director of Hardware and Embedded Systems, join together to demonstrate how laser (or light) based hardware attacks aren't just for nation-state actors. In fact, these attacks can be executed with a limited budget and hacker-and-maker mentality, right from home. Through inexpensive technology alternatives, Sam and Larry will unveil hardware malware, detect supply chain chip replacements, and delve into the realm of laser logic state imaging, integrating optics, laser selection, and machine learning components in their session.

GCPwn: A Pentester's GCP Tool 
Friday, August 10 | 10-10:30 AM | LVCC, West Hall Floor 1, DEF CON Cloud Village
Scott Weston, Senior Security Consultant at NetSPI, will share a new framework in Python specifically for the Google Cloud Platform, GCPwn. The overall goal is to make an up-to-date, maintained enumeration and exploit toolset for GCP pentesters, red teams, and security researchers that reduces the barrier of entry for learning GCP by allowing users to make their own modules that easily incorporate with the overall framework.

The Immortal Retrofuturism of Mainframe Computers and How to Keep Them Safe

He'll end the session by showcasing a tool designed to automate attacks against User-Assigned Managed Identities.

NetSPI Principal Security Consultant Tib3rius and Director of Mainframe Pentesting Phil Young will be hosting contests during DEF CON. This includes a team-based quiz show focused on man pages and software documentation (Aw, man.pages!), a cybersecurity-themed Family Feud game (Feet Feud), and a telecom-based CTF hosted on live VoIP lines routed through a modified asterisk PBX (PhreakMe).
