The two attacks that IT professionals fear the most are Denial of Service and Social Engineering. There's very little you can do to protect against or even reduce the impact of these two attacks. So come see how real hackers do them. You'll see tools like the Low Orbit Ion Cannon that have only one purpose: destroy access to your assets. You'll also see live examples of some of the most effective Social Engineering attacks in use today.

You will learn:

  • How to select and attack the most vulnerable network assets
  • How to select and attack the most vulnerable human
  • How to decimate servers and network assets with freely available hacker tools
