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. ### **Key Details** * **Date:** Wednesday, May 20, 2026 * **Time:** 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM PKT * **Location:** NASTP (NIIT University) - *Please check the location pin on our [Meetup page](https://www.meetup.com/hack-the-box-meetup-lahore-pk/schedule/) for entry details.* * **What to Bring:** A notepad for technical tips, your curiosity, and ideally a laptop if you want to follow along with certain demonstrations. > > **Project X - HackTheBox Meetup Lahore** > Wednesday, May 20 > Time zone: Asia/Karachi > Google Meet joining info > **Video call link:** https://meet.google.com/jsm-nkmv-kyt > Or dial: ‪(US) +1 260-344-4270‬ PIN: ‪844 560 624‬# > > > > **Note:** This event is free to attend, but registration is required via the [Meetup platform](https://www.meetup.com/hack-the-box-meetup-lahore-pk/schedule/) to manage venue capacity.
