On the Scent of a Hacker: illusive networks to speak at DEF CON 25

NEW YORK and TEL AVIV, Israel, July 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Pioneers of deception-based cybersecurity illusive networks today announced that Tom Sela, Head of Security Research is speaking at the upcoming DEF CON 25 on "Fooling the Hound: Deceiving Domain Admin Hunters."

With the conflict between cyber attackers and defenders often in favor of attackers, Sela's talk focuses on how defenders can use innovative hacker tools such as BloodHound to shift the odds back in favor of defenders. BloodHound utilizes graph theory to map the entire network and extract the precise path of lateral movements required to obtain foothold at any high-value asset. Sela provides strategic insight as to how a deceptions-based approach can be applied with this knowledge to control the path an attacker would take, and make it extremely difficult for attackers to avoid detection.
