Operational Security (OpSec)
Otto Dobretsberger
The strongest encryption in the world is useless if a developer leaks a private key on Slack or a password is taped to a monitor. OpSec is about the "human and process" side of the security equation. In this intensive one-day session, we switch perspectives. By learning to think like an attacker, you will identify the "digital breadcrumbs" your team leaves behind and learn how to sanitize your workflows to prevent social engineering and data exfiltration.
