Exploitation Techniques and Attacks on Hosting Assets and Access for Resale
Explore exploitation techniques and attacks on hosting assets in this 54-minute conference talk from the Hack In The Box Security Conference. Delve into the lifecycle of compromised network assets, examining real-world examples from honeypots and monitoring systems. Learn about common exploitation techniques used by attackers to gain initial footholds, methods of lateral movement within compromised networks, and the process of selling access to acquired resources. Discover how compromised assets are monetized while awaiting higher bidders, and investigate a case study revealing the consequences when an asset is sold to the highest bidder. Analyze attacker techniques in supply-chain attack scenarios and examine these cases from a defender's perspective. Identify potential red flags for incident response teams, understand attacker actions and intentions, and predict potential next steps. Gain valuable insights for network security analysts based on unique data analysis and views on attacker exploitation techniques. Presented by Vladimir Kropotov, a researcher with Trend Micro FTR team, and Fyodor Yarochkin, a researcher at Trend Micro and incident investigation volunteer at Academia Sinica. Read more
