Here we go with the last wrap-up of the 2018 edition! The first presentation was about worms: “Worms that turn: nematodes and neotodes” by Matt Wixey. The first slide contained the mention: “for educational purposes only”. What could we expect? The idea of the research performed by Matt was interesting.
The second day started early with an eye-opener talk: “IPC – the broken dream of inherent security” by Thanh Bui. IPC or “Inter-Process Communications” are everywhere. You can compare them as a network connection between a client and a server but inside the operating system. The idea of Thanh’s research was
The 14th edition (!) of hack.lu is ongoing in Luxembourg. I arrived yesterday to attend the MISP summit which was a success. It’s great to see that more and more people are using this information sharing platform to fight bad guys! Today, the conference officially started with the regular talk. I
The day three started quietly (let’s call this fact the post-social event effect) with a set of presentations around Blue Team activities.

The second day started with a topic this had a lot of interest for me: Docker containers or “Audit de sécurité d’un environnement Docker†by Julien Raeis and Matthieu Buffet. Docker is everywhere today and, like new technologies, is not always mature when deployed, sometimes in a corner by developers.
Hello Readers, I’m back in the beautiful city of Rennes, France to attend my second edition of the SSTIC. My first one was a very good experience (you can find my previous wrap-up’s on this blog – day 1, day 2, day 3) and this one was even more interesting
I’m just back from the 2018 edition of the FIRST TC (“Technical Colloquium”) organized in Amsterdam. This was the second edition for me. The format was the same, one day of workshops and two days with normal presentations. And always 100% free! During the quick introduction, Jeff Bollinger from Cisco, which
Hello Readers, here is my wrap-up of the second day. Usually, the second day is harder in the morning due to the social events but, at TROOPERS, they organize the hacker run started at 06:45 for the most motivated of us. Today, the topic of the 3rd track switched from
