Half machine, half seasoned pentester, all bad news for attackers! Fusion PenTest pairs a purpose built AI with a senior BHIS tester, so you get the speed of automation and someone who knows the difference between a real problem and a false alarm.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by the Active Countermeasures booth at Wild West Hackin' Fest! We loved chatting threat hunting with you, and we hope you’re rocking your new Threat Hunter shirt (and maybe still trying to land every ring in that water game).
Until next time!
You all should come to Right of Boom this February 2-5th.
There is also a video teaser of the special edition of The Future Is ****** in the video as well.
Here is the link for the webcast again.

No problems. See at the next one.
Hey everyone,
I was supposed to be at @WWHackinFest this week but I've been having some health issues the last week.
I sincerely apologize for not making it out. I'll be working with the con to maybe offer a webinar in the future or something.

Exciting news. I'm teaming up with @_rybaz to teach a FREE training at @unpromptedconf
You'll learn harness engineering components that can augment your research to find more complex vulns. Each student will pick an open source target and build a bespoke security harness for it.

We are all back in boot camp. The security profession is changing, and the job right now is to work on your skills, to get into the room, and learn what other people are seeing. Figure out what you can take back to your organization and use immediately.
Joshua Wright @joswr1ght just published the first rebuild of the SANS incident response framework in 20 years. It is called Dynamic Incident Response, and it is free in every digital format.
The old process was basically Contain. Eradicate. Recover. That worked when incidents were more linear. Now, you contain the incident, bring the systems back, and then the attacker shows up again. Or you find new evidence that changes what you thought the incident was in the first place.
Joshua Wright is a @SANSInstitute Faculty Fellow and the author of SEC504. He built coWPAtty and KillerBee. He spent 18 months writing this book, with contributed chapters from Megan Roddie-Fonseca on cloud response, Dean Parsons on OT, and Ryan Chapman @rj_chap on ransomware. John Strand @strandjs wrote the foreword.
It is 720 pages and free under Creative Commons. Run it in a real incident. Tell Josh what it missed.
But we all know the field is moving too fast for one person or one organization to have all the answers.
You cannot base your knowledge on the news or whatever you happen to see on X.
As a CISO or manager, you need to understand what is coming at you. What do you need to worry about? What capabilities do you need to build? How do you argue for additional budget?
That takes actual knowledge and actual skills. Josh will be teaching the hands on version at the SANS Institute @SANSInstitute AI Cybersecurity Summit on November 2-3, including how to scope AI swarms when the intrusion keeps regenerating identities, accounts, and infrastructure while you are trying to remove the attacker.
