Offensive security professionals need to increase the sophistication of their tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) in order to accomplish their goals due to the improvements in security culture and the sophistication of security products. Timo and Robert have been on a quest to find a way around modern EDR with regard to credential theft.
As part of this presentation, the team will:
* Discuss the evolution of credential theft and the reasons why alternative approaches are required
* Introduce and opensource ‘physmem2profit’, a tool that can be used to retrieve credentials and secrets without alerting the blue team
* Recommend approaches that can be used to detect and mitigate this technique
