Speakers: Jackson Thuraisamy and Jason TranTopic 1: Hacking POS SystemsHackers try to find the easiest ways to achieve the most impact. When it comes to credit card fraud, compromising Point of Sale (PoS) systems is the latest trend.The presenters will share their experience on how attackers can exploit both technical and policy gaps to breach organizations.This talk will cover approaches to physical security, kiosk breakouts, and the extraction of sensitive data. It's laced with real-life examples, including a detailed discussion of recently disclosed critical vulnerabilities in Oracle's hotel management platform.
Speakers: Milind Bhargava and Peter DesfigiesTopic 2: Lighting up the Canadian DarkNet FinanciallyMost are familiar with the term Darknet. Many have ventured a few times out of curiosity. For us, Darknet is an untapped source of Threat Intelligence and in some cases amusement. The news you see online about things being sold on the Darknet generally focuses on the United States, Russians, credit cards and drugs. While those are the most sought after topics, there is a lot people who don’t know about Canada’s Darknet shore.This talk covers interesting yet shocking information about credit cards, PayPal Accounts, bank accounts, financial data, PII, fake IDs, money laundering and more. The final objective is to highlight the Canadian market and why we should not ignore it.Meeting Location: 55 john Street, Toronto. Room: Rotunda
