Investigating Nix Endpoints for Incident Response - Patterson Cake
How many endpoint Operating Systems are there? SPOILER alert – the answer is two! 🛝 Webcast Slides - https://www.antisyphontraining.com/wp... Join Patterson Cake, Director of Incident Response at Black Hills Infosec, as he guides through his “rapid endpoint investigations” workflow for the “other” (not Windows) Operating System…*Nix (Linux/Mac). We’ll learn how to select, acquire, and analyze Linux and Mac investigative artifacts, using Velociraptor offline collector, CatScale, and UAC scripts. Windows gets a lot of attention and rightfully so! However, Linux and Mac are part of every enterprise ecosystem and represent a critical attack surface. You need a simple, effective, repeatable plan for investigating these endpoints.
