Max Corbridge

Max is a practicing Red Teamer who has quickly risen through the ranks to Head of Adversarial Simulation, just three years after getting into cyber from a non-technical, self-taught background. Formerly an English Teacher and Linguist, he has weaponised his communication skills to great effect whilst social engineering on Red Team engagements. Max now has years of experience working in fast-paced offensive security consultancies, and currently leads a highly technical team of consultants who are at the forefront of cloud Red Teaming. His zero-day vulnerabilities in Microsoft Teams and IBM Backup Products have made headline news around the world. Max is a CHECK Team Leader, and was one of the first in the UK to have received the professional entitlement (Principal Cyber Security Professional) from the UK Cyber Security Council.

Out of the Frying Pan Into the Cloud: A Red Teamer's View of Your Cloud Estate
Max Corbridge

Azure, AWS, GCP...Pick your poison. We are in the midst of a digital revolution as organisations are putting an unearthly (pardon the pun) amount of their business operations and data in the cloud. Responsibility has become a grey area, storage is being left exposed to the internet, and MFA may be the first and last line of defence. Join Max, Head of Adversarial Simulation and a Red Teamer who has become mildly obsessed with hacking the cloud, as he walks you through how his perspective and methodology has shifted when targeting cloud environments.
