NISK 2015 Keynote

Wednesday 25th of November, our security expert, Juan J. Güelfo, is invited as a keynote speaker.
This speech will cover network security testing:

Penetration…what?

Security testing, also known as penetration testing, has gained popularity during recent years. However, not all organizations have a clear understanding of what type of security testing they should conduct, or what results to expect. The content of a penetration test can vary greatly, since the security industry has no unanimous agreement on what a security test is and how it is supposed to be conducted.

In this session, Juan J. Güelfo will cover different levels of network security testing, challenges and a recommended testing methodology. The contents of this talk will help you avoid the most common pitfalls, and how to succeed when planning and conducting network security testing.

Publishing of a New Paper

In addition to the keynote, Juan J. Guelfo, will also present a new paper on NISK 2015:

Improving Computer Network Defense Analysis Training with Adversary Replication Techniques

This paper proposes two training methods that can be used to improve computer network defense analysis training. The main advantages of these methods are reduced risk and preparation costs, while increasing realism during training sessions. These methods can easily be implemented by both public and private organizations, as well as training institutions such as universities.
