1) Lessons from Billions of Breached Records

Speaker: David Gibson, Troy Hunt

What motivates attackers to dump data publicly? How is it sold, traded and redistributed? These are questions the presenter dealt with while running the ethical data breach search service “Have I been pwned.” This talk will share the lessons from working with more than a billion publicly dumped records and provide a unique inside look at security from a very real-world and very actionable perspective.

2) Expanding your Blue Team by  Creating Security Culture

Speaker: Masha Sedova

In 2012, Salesforce launched a program aimed at increasing the difficulty of a successful phishing attack on their employees.

6) The Human Exploitation Kill Chain

Whenever a user falls victim to a phishing or other social engineering attack, or makes an error, critics claim awareness efforts are useless. However, if a single user action can compromise an entire security program, the problem is the security program.
