BSides Toronto 2020

Emulate.Go
10-18, 14:30–15:10 (US/Eastern), Twitch

Emulate.Go - A tool released at DEF CON Red Team Village 2020 to help abstract the complexity away from running adversary emulation exercises through focusing on command line execution for initial access.

This talk will
- demonstrate how to use the tool within a lab environment
- dive deep into how to use the tool and lab 2 environments to build skills that are valuable in the industry


I myself created Emulate.GO and want to demonstrate it at my local conference, with some use case examples and detection examples. The original talk was more focused on extracting indicators from relevant attacks/malware and executing with Emulate.GO, rather than the different use cases and guides for use.

Benefits of the tool:
- Logging of command execution allows easier correlation in defensive tools
- run a list of commands to execute
- Non-intimidating tool allowing ease of use

Labs to be demonstrated:
- Applied Purple Team Lab
- Splunk Attack Range

Methodology:
- Understanding an attack
- Executing an attack
- Review relevant logs
- Creating a filter for detection/hunting/alerting
