Learning how adversaries infiltrate highly secured environment

17h00 ASQ Montreal Section: Webinar in English | Webinaire en anglais (0.2 RU)

ASQ Montreal Students: Adversary simulation - Threats against financial institutionsAs financial institutions continue to strengthen their security measures, adversaries have become more sophisticated in their attempts to infiltrate highly secured banks. In this presentation, we will examine the various techniques, tactics, and procedures that adversaries use to breach bank security systems. We will discuss common attack vectors such as phishing, social engineering, and malware, and explore how these methods are used to compromise user credentials and gain access to sensitive systems. Additionally, we will cover advanced persistent threats (APTs) and their use of complex strategies to avoid detection and persist within target networks. By understanding these tactics and techniques, we can better defend against them and develop more effective security strategies to protect against future attacks.Our speaker<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/faghani/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Dr. Mohammad Reza Faghani</a> leads technical delivery of Cyber Incident Response at PwC Canada.
