Langner and Pederson speak at international cyber weapons conference

Ralph Langner and Perry Pederson will both be speaking at ICSage, an international conference on cyber weapons organized by Digital Bond as a new addendum to their popular SCADA Security Scientific Symposium (S4). The conference will be held on January 17 in Miami.

Ralph will do a Q & A on stage about cyber weapons in the wake of Stuxnet. His last appearance at S4 was two years ago when he took the audience for a Stuxnet Deep Dive, a line-by-line explanation of central pieces of Stuxnet’s attack code which is regarded the most technical talk on the subject to date.

Perry will give a backgrounder on Project Aurora, the DHS-funded (successful) experiment to destroy an electrical generator by a cyber attack. While demonstrated to provide for a valid attack vector, the Aurora vulnerability remains existing in the majority of electrical generators to date, waiting to be exploited.
