“Exploring the Link Between Corruption and Cybercrime”
We are confronted by so many cyber threat actors, with the primary focus being on external threats, and when it comes to internal threats, the focus is often on internal negligence. But the reality is we are seeing in more and more cases that external threat actors are actually simply corrupting internal staff members, often in trusted IT and security positions, to overcome even the most sophisticated cyber security systems. Considering that many cybercrime groups operate as organised crime groups, which are already willing to use corruption to achieve their aims, it is not surprising that they are willing to engage in corruption to facilitate their cybercrimes. This talk will explore this concept in detail, showing how corruption related to cybercrime works, how organised crime groups identify targets, and talk about a case study that the presenter was involved in, where a cybercrime group used corruption to pull of a major hack of several government departments.
"Your Journey to the New GenAI-DFIR Era Starts Today"
How exactly will Generative AI (GenAI) change the way Forensicators & Hunters work today?
In this talk Jess Garcia will answer that question by presenting everything you need to know to integrate GenAI in your everyday DFIR tasks and get ready for this new era.
Jess will cover the most important concepts, tools & resources you need to know related to GenAI for DFIR, will describe how to apply them to everyday DFIR tasks and will elaborate on AI-Agents (orchestrators capable of coordinating data sources, LLMs and Tools), the most promising technology today to address many of the complex analysis tasks that Forensicators perform today.
Jess will practically demonstrate how an AI-Agent DFIR Co-Pilot can be easily used to process and analyze forensic artifacts, and how AI-Agents can autonomously solve many of the most challenging tasks that we face in our investigations today.
