OWASP Israel Chapter Meetup

🐝✡ OWASP IL ✡🐝 is excited to welcome you to our latest Meetup event! 🚀

Prepare to dive into the world of Application Security with an evening filled with engaging security topics, networking, and as always - community mingling, food and drinks.

This time, we're delighted to have Akamai as the host for our gathering!

====================================================================

Agenda:
➡️ 17:30 - 18:15 - gathering and food - We will gather at Akamai for drinks, great treats, and mingling.

➡️ 18:15 - 18:30 - OWASP Israel Intro + Microphone tuning

➡️ 18:30 to 19:05 - From Cell to Shell - Abusing SageMaker AI
Shani Peled - Senior Cloud Security Researcher @ CrowdStrike

SageMaker Quick Setup’s one-click notebooks create a convenient but risky default execution role. From a single notebook cell an attacker can escalate privileges, create persistent backdoors (endpoint & lifecycle abuse) and exfiltrate data. This talk combines PoCs and chained attack paths to show how common defaults and misconfigurations lead to full account compromise.

➡️ 19:10 - 19:45 - Pulling Trouble: Keeping Malicious Packages Out of Your Supply Chain
Rotem Reiss - Head of Application Security @ Check Point

Recently, the Shai-Hulud campaign hijacked hundreds of npm packages, some downloaded billions of times and turned them into credential-stealing traps hiding in plain sight. It’s not a new story, just a loud reminder that supply-chain attacks never really went away. In this session, I’ll describe what made this wave possible, how it differs from regular CVEs or open-source vulnerabilities, and how to build continuous, practical defenses that let us actually sleep at night while keeping our products safe.

➡️ 19:50 - 20:25 - tbc
