Description

Scott Sutherland introduces a session focused on hunting SMB shares using modern data analysis techniques like graphs, charts, and LLMs to identify and detect threats 0:05-0:08.

Key Takeaways:
• The presentation centers on exploiting and defending SMB shares, framing the legacy protocol as a nostalgic but highly relevant attack vector reminiscent of 1999 0:06-0:11.
• Sutherland, an established figure in the infosec community best known for creating PowerUpSQL, currently serves as a VP of Research at Net Spy 0:18-0:37.
• His team's core mission involves developing new services and products dedicated to both breaking into systems and detecting malicious actors attempting to do the same 0:42-0:46.

This introduction sets the stage for applying advanced data visualization and AI tools to a classic security vulnerability.

Sources:

  • 0:05-0:08 Introduction of the SMB shares and LLM topic
  • 0:06-0:11 Nostalgic reference to SMB shares from 1999
  • 0:18-0:37 Speaker background and current role at Net Spy
  • 0:42-0:46 Net Spy's focus on offensive and defensive security research

[Music] Yeah, we're going to be talking about hunting SMB shares with data, graphs, charts, and LLMs. Um, you heard that right, SMB shares like it's 1999 again. So hopefully, uh, we have some nostalgic fun as we go through. For those of you who haven't met me before, uh, my name is Scott Sutherland. Um, and I go by Nobine, typically on GitHub and Twitter and the like. Um, I've done a lot of open source stuff in the past. Um, the thing I'm probably most known for is PowerUps SQL, which is a little dusty these days, but was still a fun project. Um, these days I'm one of the VPs of research at Net Spy, and so we focus on, you know, building new services, new products, um, trying to find new and exciting ways to break things and detect people breaking things. One of the places I've spent a lot…
