0x0E - October Meetup

WHAT TO EXPECT
Ever wondered what happens when someone connects a rogue device to a network? Or how attackers can exploit the protocols we trust to communicate with other devices?
This time, we're going to investigate Noxious, a Hack The Box Sherlock that focuses on network attacks, Active Directory, and identifying suspicious activity.
We'll dig into the evidence, investigate network traffic, and follow the clues to understand what happened and how an attacker may have taken advantage of the environment.
No need to be a blue team expert! Bring your curiosity, your laptop, and your favourite investigation tools. We'll work through the challenge together and learn something along the way.
As usual, expect some troubleshooting, a bit of head-scratching, and hopefully a few aha! moments.

The event will be hosted at MadeCurious, and drinks and pizza will be kindly provided by MadeCurious as well - huge thanks for supporting the community!
