Pen testing by asking questions: the Art of Elicitation

Pen testing doesn't have to be all dropping exploits and launching shells. Learning to ask the right questions at the right time can lead to a better understanding of vulnerabilities on your targets than actually running tests.

Bike Ride
Bruce Potter

Make sure to show up on time with your bike! There are numerous bike rental shops nearby as well as dockless bikes in the area that you can book with a phone app (Lime, Mobike, Ofo, Spin, Bird, etc) in case you don't mind how fancy your bike is. We're setting up this bike ride to be relatively slow paced so everyone can bike together and will take roughly 2-3 hours for the full round-trip. See you there!
