Common Sense Career Transitions
Have you considered a tech career that was “above your pay grade”? What about a dream gig that you have few or – gasp – none of the basic qualifications for?

DC206 Meeting Presentation:
CTF: Reaching people with fun and games by Mug
Abstract: Mug’s security team is always looking for better ways to reach employees in his Fortune 500 Company. The business environment is formal and professional. Newsletters, blogs, mandatory training courses and an optional video series with certification simply aren’t enough – as evidenced by the incident response team that’s as busy as ever. For Cybersecurity Awareness Month in 2018 we hosted a Capture the Flag aimed at technical employees of all skill levels. Mug wants to share his success and lessons learned with this little (huge), well planned (total cluster), highly funded (no systems, budget, time, or support) funtimes and subversive training activity.
Bio: Mug’s been a blue teamer for the last 21 years, owing much of his success to a “let’s be practical” approach to problem solving and having an uncanny ability to spot and address communication breakdowns. Specific areas of focus have included DFIR, network protective control and feeling the pain of building an internal PKI that’s grown well beyond its original scope. Currently in the role of security architect at a Fortune 500 company, Mug and his team lead the global success or failure of the company’s electronic information risk management practices.
Kit is only $35, and includes a large list of parts and projects. I will waive my usual teaching fee and ask students to drop it in the BLR donation box instead. I’ll start by running a 30 min slide overview of Arduino, then I will help folks get going with the first project in the kit. Students usually get 2 to 4 of the projects running during the class, and are able to finish the rest on their own.

DC206 Meeting Presentation:
Exploring PowerShell, Episode II: When in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout! by Dr0m3 (and Potato)
Previously exploring the history of PowerShell and its evolution into an OS agnostic scripting tool, this next presentation focuses on its applied use in the landscape of penetration testing.
Introducing some of the “tools” within the Nishang and Empire modules, we
will be exploring some of the use cases for these tools as part of an
attack chain.
Stephen (Potato) won'[t be able to make the presentation this time, but we
are hoping to still continue this as a series (with the both of us)–as
long as you guys want us back for more :).

DC206 Meeting Presentation:
Travel Hacking For Make Benefit Belarus Museum of Cat! =^_^=
by @TProphet
Do you have frequent flier miles, hotel points, or bank points? Millions
of people let their points expire or spend them unoptimally on trips to
boring places like Hawaii instead of visiting the world’s best
undiscovered tourist hotspots. For example, why not visit the glorious
tractor factory and statue of Lenin in Minsk, Belarus? Speaking of
museums, there is a Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb, Croatia.
TProphet will discuss travel hacking tools, techniques, mistake fares,
and some of the more interesting places he has visited using travel hacks.
TProphet has been phreaking since middle school and writing for 2600:
The Hacker Quarterly since high school. These days he’s into travel
hacking, and has leveraged mistake fares, miles and points to visit all
7 continents. TProphet is the founder of AwardCat (https://award.cat).
