Talk Abstracts:

Talk 1 - AI Pentesting by Andy Hornegold
A talk about Pentesting

Speaker Bio:
Name: Andy Hornegold
Title: Chief Security Technologist at Intruder
Bio: Andy has a long career in cyber security including a decade in threat simulation and consulting. He’s worked with some of the largest organisations and brands across most industries and sectors, advising how to defend themselves against advanced threat actors. Career highlights include being the Assurance Regional Lead at one of the UK's leading cyber security consultancies, managing a team of 30 cyber security consultants, and helping critical national infrastructure providers stay secure.

Talk 2 - A Deep Dive into SAML by Glyn Wintle
Glyn will explain how SAML works (yes there will be lots of xkcd cartoons), the flaws found in standard deployments and give example in most implementations, walk through some of the attack/defence techniques that work with any xml based protocol and digital signatures before going deeper into some more technobabble just for you.

Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML, pronounced sam-el) is an XML-based, open-standard data format for exchanging authentication and authorization data between parties, in particular, between an identity provider and a service provider. Think enterprise single sign on, used by governments, large companies, web sites, what could possibly go wrong?

Speaker Bio:
Glyn is CTO at Tradecraft. They are security consultancy, specialising in attack.
Tradecraft helps organisations to become more secure by breaching their systems in the same way as criminal hackers, and then working with them over the long term to help fix what they find, and to help them get better at finding and fixing things for themselves.

Glyn has been in security for over ten years, and before that he used to program. He has appeared before parliament to give evidence on some of the more crazy laws they have introduced connected to the internet, and has worked with the Open Rights Group lobbying on trying to fix some of them.
