Course Description
To conduct an advanced attack, you need more than just a collection of simple scripts. In addition to talent, you need a large amount of managed and unmanaged code. The more code and resources that are required to conduct an engagement, the more time we need. Time is something we don’t have a lot of on an engagement.
Today, to be an advanced and effective attacker, you need to move fast, and that speed requires a move to a DevOps style of managing infrastructure and code. With cloud resources and APIs to manage these resources, the days of manual setup are long behind us.
Where do we get started? And how does it all work?
In this training, we learn the fundamentals of DevOps and how we can code our tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). Coding TTPs allows for new tactics and improved OPSEC to be shared without the cost of knowledge transfer and manual setup. This class will introduce students to Terraform Ansible and Docker with the goal of writing TTPs to use and share.
In this class, we will learn the fundamentals of Terraform Ansible and Docker with an emphasis on how we can use these tools to code our TTPs. After we have the fundamentals, we will start coding and get comfortable with YAML and will review how to create resources and customize TTPs. Lastly, we will work through multiple labs and examples that you can take with you for your next engagement.
