Linux Attack and Defense: The Matrix

Featuring guest speaker, Linux hacker, Co-Founder and CTO of InGuardians, Jay Beale

Follow the White Rabbit, Neo! With all of those text-based interfaces, we all know that the Matrix hackers were all running Linux.

In this Matrix-themed episode in Jay Beale's Linux attack and defense webinar series, watch the CTO of InGuardians break into a Matrix-themed VM, escalating privilege and capturing flags as he goes. Then he'll switch to the Agents' side, demonstrating how you can use Linux defensive techniques to proactively break the humans' attacks.

From this session, attendees will:
- Learn how to attack a capture the flag Linux machine with Kali Linux
- Understand how to configure Linux to break attacks
