BSides Discussed Spyware, Android Vulnerabilities and More
Founded in 2009, the Security BSides is a community-driven framework for building events for and by information security community members. BSides events are intense and filled with participants’ discussions, demos, and interaction. Run and participated by the community itself, these conferences are where conversations for the next big thing happen.
BSides opened with a keynote address by Heath Adams, The Cyber Mentor (TCM), on information security, cyber security and ethical hacking. Security issues pertinent to both individuals and organizations were presented. The conference discussed the latest updates and research on Google Vehicle Routing Problems (VRP), android vulnerabilities, mobile spyware, Amazon mis-configurations and more. There was also a full-day car hacking workshop. The idea was to showcase how a vehicle can be manoeuvred remotely and used for system penetration with an entire array of tools at the hacker’s disposal.
