D rop a binary\, load a BOF\, tunnel\n Impacket\, abuse a LOLBIN? Today th at runs on gut feel\, and guessing\n wrong is how you get caught.\n\n Praetor is an open-source\, AI-driven OPSEC assistant that plugs into\n Empire and turns that call into an informed one. You tell it what you\n want to do\, and it suggests the ways to do it\, ranked by how much each\n one would expose\, with a plain-language explanation of why one path is \n quieter than another.\n\n AI is what makes the suggestions usable. It reads your intent in\n natural language\, assembles the candidate tec hniques\, ranks them\, and\n writes the reasoning a senior operator woul d give you\, putting\n tradecraft that normally lives in a few people's heads at every\n operator's fingertips. When you reach for a louder opti on than you\n need\, it speaks up with a specific reason and a quieter a lternative\,\n not a blanket warning.\n\n The advice is grounded\, not guessed. Praetor cannot see the target's\n telemetry\, so it never clai ms anything is "safe." It models the\n detection surface each technique exposes\, ranks the options against\n each other\, and bases those judgm ents on footprints measured in an\n instrumented range rather than on a model's intuition. You set the\n defensive posture you believe you are f acing\, and the suggestions\n adjust to it.\n\n We will demo it live a nd let people use it against Empire: state an\n intent\, see the AI-rank ed options with their reasoning\, and watch the\n confirmation gate fire when a choice is louder than it needs to be.\n\n Access to a TryHackMe configured lab will be provisioned.\n\n Speakers:Andrea Brosio\,Ariz Sor iano\n\n SpeakerBio: Andrea Brosio\n\n Andrea Brosio is a Security Re searcher and Senior Content Engineer at\n TryHackMe\, specializing in re d teaming\, malware development\, and\n offensive security.
