Arun Nair | Meera Patel

"Level up your red team skills! Practical Red Team training. Build real-world infra mimicking APT groups. Terraform, Ansible and more. Red/Blue Teams win."

​

Talk format: 2 Days

​

Audience level: Intermediate, Advanced

​

Stepping into the Red Team battleground requires more than just theoretical knowledge, it demands an arsenal of practical skills and an infrastructure that can adapt to complex security landscapes. Current training and talks often don’t teach the nuts and bolts of truly operational Red Team setups, nor do they delve into the automation of such setups. The gap in existing education often skips the real-world complexities and nuances of such setups. This training fills that void and offers a fast-paced and engaging introduction to setting up Red Team Infrastructure, focusing on the practical uses of Terraform and Ansible. The training begins with a brief overview of Red Team operations and the critical role of robust infrastructure. It then swiftly moves into the practical aspects and implementing automation at each step, demonstrating the basics of Terraform for deploying cloud infrastructure and Ansible for efficient configuration management. During this training the students will not only setup a complex resilient Red Team Infrastructure but will also parallely develop a framework to streamline the whole process, from automating the setup of C2 Teamservers, HTTP/SMTP/DNS Redirectors, RedELK Logging Server, Phishing Server with Gophish/Evilginx/iRedMail and many more.
