Hands on Hacking Workshop | Los Angeles

About this event

Knowing how your adversary works and attacks allows for better targeting of resources: models like the cyber kill chain have helped paved the way for companies to better understand their risks. Yesterday it was mobile devices and apps, today its cryptojacking threats and ransomware. To keep ahead of the threats we need to understand the adversary and the tools they use.

Come join us for a special two hour training workshop of real world techniques that can be used to compromise any system. We aim to give students those real world simulations of what happens with their systems are attacked through this two hour walk through of our downloadable Hands on Hacking module. The module is designed as a starting place to teach skills used by ethical hackers to conduct a variety of assessment activities. British Cyber security researcher and popular twitter influencer @HackerFantastic, also known as Matthew Hickey, will share his 15+ years experience working in information security across the world.

During this workshop, Matthew will walk through the Hands on Hacking module downloadable from the Hacker House website. The module in a complete containerized virtual lab and each student can download straight to their computer for the workshop.

Past workshops students love the demo module because its easier to ask questions and get help in the classroom/workshop environment where they wouldn’t have the same opportunity at home. The content of the module is exciting and will give students a place to start for those looking to either switch careers into information security or for those students looking for a way to start their skills career of ethical hacking. Hacker House teaches the core concepts used in many cyber security related job roles from intelligence analysts to penetration testing. More and more companies are turning to the Hacker House Hands on Hacking™ course to deliver up to date content, with real world threats, to train teams in classroom, or remote from their laptops. For our remote and global network, we have introduced the live stream and on demand versions which will be available with all the trainings.
