Mobile App Reverse Engineering and Code Modification – Cracking 101
Jonathan Carter – @bogomip2k
Thursday 21 May, 2015 – 9:50 – 12:40
Over the last year, we’ve seen a profound rise in new attack vectors (Wirelurker and Masque) against mobile apps that involve reverse engineering mobile code followed by unauthorized runtime behavior modification. How are hackers reverse engineering mobile apps and injecting their own malicious code into them? It’s disturbingly easy and there are plenty of freely available and easy-to-use tools on the market to help the hacker along the way. In this hands on session, you will use laptops and iOS devices we provide to reverse engineer and modify code in an iOS app. We will guide you through each step.
Attendees are asked to bring their own laptop and a jailbroken device. A very limited number of jailbroken devices will be available.
Here’s a description of how to prepare for the workshop:

OWASP Security Shepherd
Fiona Collins – @fipeewee
Friday 22 May, 2015 – 09:50 – 11:50
This will be a hands on workshop to demonstrate to women what a career in App Sec can involve (most likely using the OWASP Security Shepherd project). It will be a fairly informal session as we want to give women an introduction in an environment where they won’t feel intimidated. There will be a brief introduction to application security and some of the top issues out there today. I will be there to help with solutions and give direction where needed. OWASP Security Shepherd is a web application with vulnerabilities built in. laptop will be required.

Attacking Browsers with BeEF
Bart Leppens – @bmantra
Friday 22 May, 2015 – 14:30 – 16:30
BeEF allows the professional penetration tester to assess the actual security posture of a target environment by using client-side attack vectors. Unlike other security frameworks, BeEF looks past the hardened network perimeter and client system, and examines exploitability within the context of the one open door: the web browser. Not only the architecture of BeEF will be on the menu, but be prepared to witness some advanced attacks.
