Step into the world of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) with our immersive workshop designed for cybersecurity enthusiasts and professionals. This hands-on session provides a foundational introduction to ICS and protocols.
You'll get practical experience with our "Factory in a Suitcase"—a fully virtualized environment where you can safely explore and hack critical industrial protocols. We’ll guide you through:
- ICS Basics: Understand what a PLC is and how it operates within real-world industrial settings, illustrated with personal examples.
- Hacking: Gain hands-on experience hacking the Modbus protocol, allowing you to control devices like switching a lamp on or off in a virtualized environment. We'll also delve into the basics of hacking the Siemens S7 protocol.
- Reverse Engineering: Get an introduction to the basics of reverse engineering firmware files. You'll work with older ABB software, learning how to extract passwords and explore the fascinating backstory behind these devices.
- Do’s and Don’ts: Learn the essential best practices and common pitfalls in the world of Operational Technology (OT) security.
Requirements: Participants must bring a laptop with Kali Linux installed. All other tools and materials will be provided.
This workshop is perfect for those looking to build a strong foundation in ICS security, with practical skills that can be applied in real-world scenarios. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to get hands-on with the technology that drives today's industrial systems.
i have been working in industrial environments for almost 10 years, from food to energy to automotive.
everyday life is filled with operational equipment, therefor i would like to share my insights of this world and need you to help us safeguard our critical infrastructure
