1. YOU'D BETTER SECURE YOUR BLE DEVICES OR WE'LL KICK YOUR BUTTS !
Speakers:
Damien "virtualabs" Cauquil, Head of Research & Development, Digital Security
In this talk, we will demonstrate how this attack works on various devices, how to protect them and avoid hijacking and of course release the source code of the tool.
2. Outsmarting the Smart City: DISCOVERING AND ATTACKING THE TECHNOLOGY THAT RUNS & MODERN CITIES
Speakers:
- Daniel "unicornFurnace" Crowley, Research Baron, IBM X-Force Red
- Mauro Paredes, Hacker
- Jen "savagejen" Savage, Hacker
In this talk, we examine the security of a cross-section of smart city devices currently in use today to reveal how deeply flawed they are and how the implications of these vulnerabilities could have serious consequences.
In addition to discussing newly discovered pre-auth attacks against multiple smart city devices from different categories of smart city technology, this presentation will discuss methods for how to figure out what smart city tech a given city is using, the privacy implications of smart cities, the implications of successful attacks on smart city tech, and what the future of smart city tech may hold.
3. Who Controls the Controllers—Hacking Crestron IoT Automation Systems
Speakers:
Ricky "HeadlessZeke" Lawshae, Security Researcher, Trend Micro
In this talk, we will take a look at different Crestron devices from a security perspective and discuss the many vulnerabilities and opportunities for fun to be found within. I will demonstrate both documented and undocumented features that can be used to achieve full system compromise and show the need to make securing these systems a priority, instead of an afterthought, in every deployment. In short, hijinx will ensue.
