DIATEAM at Hack’In Trégor in Lannion on October 24th

On Thursday, October 24th, DIATEAM was in Lannion for the first edition of Hack’In Trégor Day, an event powered by Technopôle Anticipa & Lannion Trégor Communauté within the framework of Campus Bretagne Cyber Alliance.

Hack’In Trégor Day is “a playful and active afternoon, […] made to raise your awareness of information security stakes through funny activities and inspiring testimonies”.

Alexandre Wets & Nicolas Formichella were there to make a demo entitled:

“USB : le port de tous les dangers”

(USB: a port full of danger).

This scenario shows, using DIATEAM Hybrid Cyber Range, a cyber attack launched through a USB stick plugged into a computer in a company, which then allows the attacker to take control of the system.

This extremely common scene (“hey look, a USB stick, let’s see what’s on it!”) may have huge consequences, and this so unimportant and trivial action can get its author into serious trouble.

 

Alexandre & Nicolas have been able to show the demonstration and answer the questions of 200 people in total.
