DESCRIPTION:   'Title: Sold Out - Ghidra Analysis & Automation Masterclass\
 n   When: Friday\, Aug 9\, 14:00 - 17:59 PDT\n   Where: Springhill Suites/
 Dean Martin - [1]Map\n\n   Description:\n\n   Reverse engineering is done 
 for a variety of reasons\, most commonly to\n   analyze malware\, when sea
 rching for (and when looking to understand)\n   vulnerabilities\, or simpl
 y because of one’s curiosity. The NSA\n   understood this early on and d
 eveloped a framework to aid them in\n   their reversing endeavors\, which 
 they open-sourced in early 2019:\n   Ghidra. Since then\, Ghidra has been 
 one of the industry standard tools\n   to analyze files\, mainly due to it
 s active development\, as well as due\n   to its accessible and versatile 
 nature.\n\n   This four-hour workshop primarily focuses on the analyst min
 dset and\n   fundamental knowledge with regards to reverse engineering\, i
 ncluding\n   but not limited to understanding Ghidra’s core capabilities
  such as\n   the disassembly and decompiler views\, creating and retyping 
 data\n   structures\, writing scripts to extend and automate tasks\, and t
 he\n   creation and use of function recognition databases for FunctionID a
 nd\n   BSim.\n\n   The concepts behind the capabilities of Ghidra are the 
 focus of the\n   theory and during the hands-on exercises\, allowing one t
 o transfer the\n   gained knowledge to another tool if so desired. As such
 \, this class is\n   perfect for aspiring and beginning analysts\, while a
 lso providing\n   background information and additional techniques for int
 ermediate\n   analysts.\n\n   The workshop’s materials will partially co
 nsist of multiple malware\n   samples\, the precautions for which will be 
 explained in-detail during\n   the workshop\, ensuring the safety and inte
 grity of the systems of the\n   attendees. A laptop with a preinstalled In
 tel based 64-bit Ubuntu\n   22.04 VM\, along with Ghidra\, Eclipse\, and O
 penJDK 21 is required.\n\n   Additionally\, knowing how to read C/C++ is r
 equired when dealing with\n   decompiled code. Being able to read and writ
 e Java is required for the\n   automation scripting\, even though Python 2
  can be used as well. If you\n   cannot write Java and would still like to
  participate\, you are\n   welcome\, but do note that this will impede som
 e parts of the\n   workshop’s exercises.\n\n   SpeakerBio:  Max "Libra" 
 Kersten\n\n   Max Kersten is a malware analyst\, blogger\, and speaker who
  aims to\n   make malware analysis more approachable for those who are sta
 rting. In\n   2019\, Max graduated cum laude with a bachelor's in IT & Cyb
 er\n   Security\, during which Max also worked as an Android malware analy
 st.\n   Currently\, Max works as a malware analyst at Trellix\, where he\n
    analyses APT malware and creates open-source tooling to aid such\n   re
 search. Over the past few years\, Max spoke at international\n   conferenc
 es\, such as DEFCON\, Black Hat (USA\, EU\, MEA\, Asia)\, Botconf\,\n   Co
 nfidence-Conference\, HackYeahPL\, and HackFestCA. Additionally\, he\n   g
 ave guest lectures and workshops for DEFCON\, Botconf\, several\n   univer
 sities\, and private entities.\n\n   '\n\n   1. #Springhill_Full\n\n\n
