# **Hck4G Meetup #0x15** ## **"Stop Spying On Me!" – Disrupting Adversarial DNS Queries** Register here: https://events.humanitix.com/hck4g-meetup-0x15-stop-spying-on-me-disrupting-adversarial-dns-queries ### **Event Overview** Hck4G returns with Meetup #0x15, continuing our mission to build practical, community-driven cybersecurity capability that provide legitimate pathway into cybersecurity for young people. This session explores the hidden risks behind everyday internet usage; specifically, how online advertising and tracking ecosystems have evolved into security and privacy threats, and what defenders can do about it. ### **Talk Overview** Online advertising is no longer just an annoyance — it has become a significant attack surface for both individuals and organisations. Ads and trackers consume large amounts of data, profile users, and are increasingly leveraged for malware delivery and cybercrime activity. This session follows the journey of building a whole-of-home advert and threat blocking system using a DNS blackhole, highlighting both the effectiveness of DNS filtering and the ongoing challenges defenders face. What starts as a simple setup quickly becomes an arms race, as modern devices and operating systems bypass traditional controls using: * **Hard-coded DNS resolvers** * **DNS over TLS (DoT)** * **DNS over HTTPS (DoH)** Attendees will gain practical insight into how DNS filtering works, why it remains relevant, and how encryption is reshaping both privacy and network security. ### **Speaker** **Dr Joel Panther** Joel is a cybersecurity researcher, offensive security specialist, and educator with over 15 years of experience across system administration, penetration testing, and security consulting. In his consulting work, Joel specialises in offensive security practices, including vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, and security training. His approach bridges technical execution and strategic insight, combining hands-on exploitation techniques with a broader understanding of organisational risk. Joel is an active contributor to the cybersecurity community as a speaker, mentor, and educator. He regularly presents on topics spanning security, privacy, and ethics. His work often explores the intersection of cybersecurity and societal impact, with a particular focus on emerging threats in areas such as artificial intelligence and cybercrime. His PhD produced a framework for designing dynamically generated penetration testing laboratories, and his current research focuses on offensive security skills development. Joel is deeply committed to education and workforce development, supporting initiatives that strengthen pathways into the cybersecurity profession. He has led the design and delivery of CyberCX’s security testing training program, which provides early-career professionals with a structured blend of formal training and practical, real-world experience. When he’s not in the basement hacking, he can be found at cybersecurity community events across Australia. Known as one of the top offensive security education voices in Australia. *** ### **Who Should Attend** * Cybersecurity practitioners (offensive and defensive) * Network and system administrators * Privacy-conscious technologists * Students and early-career professionals * Anyone interested in practical, real-world cyber defence *** ### **Event Details** * Date: 20th April 2026 * Time: 5:30pm - 8pm * Venue: RMIT University – Building 80, Melbourne * Online: Livestream available * Cost: Free (registration required) *** ### **Event Schedule** * 5:30 – 5:40 PM: Welcome, Intro & Networking * 5:40 – 6:00 PM: Networking & Cyber pizzas 🍕 * 6:00 – 6:45 PM: Presentation * 6:45 – 8:00 PM: Discussions and Q&A ### **Thanks to Our Sponsors** RMIT University – World-class certificates, degrees, Masters and Postgraduate programs BridgeLynk.io – Attack-informed cybersecurity services for NFP, SMB and Enterprise CyLynk.com – Job-ready cybersecurity training led by expert coaches *** ### **What to Expect** * Practical, real-world cybersecurity insights * Community-driven learning and discussion * Networking with peers across experience levels * Food and refreshments (in-person attendees) *** ### **About Hck4G** Hck4G is a not-for-profit organisation focused on disrupting the human impact of cybercrime through awareness, education, and community capability building.

**Gain The Confidence to Be Unstoppable! Free Class.** How to Achieve Self Confidence! Without question, self confidence is the key to success. It determines how many of your goals you achieve in life and has an enormous impact on your happiness. It affects how people perceive you, your career achievements, your ability to take risks or try new endeavours, as well as your overall attitude toward yourself and others. Self Confidence is something most people would like to have more of, but aren't sure how to get. Did you ever feel more certain of yourself in the past? Would you like to raise your self confidence ? To increase self confidence, you have to understand what reduces it. If you know why this happens you can reverse the situation and rebuild your self esteem. Self Confidence is self-determinism. One's belief in one's ability to determine his own course. As long as one has that, he's go the universe in his pocket. - L. Ron Hubbard. This day you are able to Learn a few things about: • The true source of security in life. • How self-confidence, self respect and self trust interrelate, and what you can do to rehabilitate them. • The exact steps to become more competent in whatever you do. Today's free class will put you into a good position to help you achieve a new level of self-confidence, accomplish more and progress towards a higher level of personal survival.
