Those crazy enough to be up for a red-eye SANS webcast this morning got a real treat. Today at 7:00 AM EDT Ed Skoudis gave a presentation on “Evolving Computer Attack Tools and Techniques.” This was the second part in a multi-part serious Ed is giving on penetration testing techniques. Tom did a great write-up on the first webcast.

Today's webcast covered the Nmap Scripting Engine (NSE), Cain and pass the hash attacks. The webcast concluded with an overview of Intelguardians' research on the cold boot attack.

Folks who listened to the webcast also got a discount code for SANs 560, SANs new penetration testing class written by Ed.

The audio and slides for the webcast available here.

Cheers,
Matt
