The Beer-Talk will consist of a 45-minute technical presentation in German followed by discussions over a snack. The participation is free but a registration is required.

Topic

It is assumed that large companies have more money and personnel available to secure their systems, which is why global players are considered to be well-protected against hacking attacks. In many cases this might be true, but definitely not in all of them.

In this presentation we will give you an insight into the state of IT security and show that global players are just as vulnerable as startups. Using a case study, we question the equation "turnover = security". Further, we will present our approach in a penetration test, during which we were able to take over an entire company within two days and were able to "steal" customer and other sensitive data. 

Speaker

Stephan Sekula has been an IT Security Analyst with Compass Security since 2013. He plans und performs penetration tests to uncover vulnerabilities - before the "real hackers" do. Also, he gives lectures and conducts workshops in order to increase IT security awareness.

Tino Kautschke has been an IT Security Analyst with Compass Security since 2017. He is experienced in software development and reverse engineering and checks IT systems for vulnerabilties.
