PROJECT X - 10 - HACKTHEBOX MEETUP LAHORE

In the spirit of our 10th meetup, we draw inspiration from the ultimate pioneer of the "10th power"—Nikola Tesla. Just as Tesla envisioned a world connected by invisible currents, we gather to master the invisible threads of the digital landscape.

FOR ALL THOSE WHO ARE NOT FROM NIIT, ARE SUPPOSED TO JOIN ONLINE VIA GOOGLE MEET.

Tesla famously obsessed over the mathematical beauty of the universe, and reaching "Project X" (the Roman numeral for 10) marks our own transition from a simple frequency to a high-voltage community. This milestone is a tribute to the relentless pursuit of innovation; we aren't just discussing code—we are channeling the same lightning of curiosity that drove Tesla to illuminate the world.

### What We’ll Cover

#### 1. Malware Analysis

Go beyond the basics. We’ll discuss how to safely handle suspicious samples, use static and dynamic analysis tools to uncover malicious intent, and understand the behavior of modern ransomware.

#### 2. Active Directory (AD) Security

Active Directory remains the primary target in corporate environments. We will explore common misconfigurations, lateral movement techniques, and the best practices for hardening AD environments against sophisticated adversaries.

#### 3. Attacks on AI Applications

As AI integrates into every software stack, the attack surface grows. This session covers Prompt Injection, Insecure Output Handling, and how to identify vulnerabilities in LLM-based applications.
