After a short break, Lee Kagan will be giving us an awesome presentation on OSX (Apple’s OS) Exploitation. I know I’m excited about this talk!
An Introduction to OSX Exploitation
As more Apple products become integrated into the modern environment, OSX is finally getting the offensive attention it deserves. As a result, it’s becoming critical for attackers and defenders to understand the attack surface as well as the unique challenges this OSX poses.
Lee will walk through the basics of attacking OSX. What are Plists? Are DyLibs meaningful? Does ActiveDirectory work with Macs? What the heck is JamF?
Lee will cover all of this and more in this introduction to OSX exploitation.
A little bit about Lee

When Lee isn’t tip-toeing through enterprise’s Active Directory environments he’s running the DerbyCon Toronto Community Chapter, the Canadian Collegiate Cyber Exercise (C3X), and as an instructor teaching Canadian offensive and defensive professionals ways to up their game. Lee has spoken at multiple events and conferences such as BSides and SecTor. In his spare time, Lee is an executive chef at a restaurant in his mind.

Alana Staszczyszyn is a practicing security consultant. Her past and present work has focused on penetration testing and security governance in the public health sector. She is also very interested in various political, socioeconomic, and cultural aspects of cybersecurity, particularly on how the intersections of security and those domains have given rise to new cyber-threat landscape risks.
John Simpson graduated from the Sheridan Information Systems Security program in 2015 and is currently a vulnerability researcher and team lead with Trend Micro in Toronto. He started his career with a coop position at Deloitte and stayed after graduation, working in Security Operations Center engineering and vulnerability assessment/penetration testing roles. In his current position, John reverse engineers vulnerabilities to write proof-of-concept exploits and devise network detection strategies to catch exploitation attempts. During the last 4.5 years in his current role, he has discovered several new vulnerabilities, authored blog posts for Trend Micro and Zero Day Initiative, and spoken at several conferences.
Nick Johnston is the Program Coordinator and professor of Sheridan’s Honours Bachelor of Applied Information Sciences (Information Systems Security) degree program. Prior to his academia role, Nick led an incident response team, worked as a computer forensic investigator, programmer, penetration tester, secure code auditor, and general InfoSec consultant.

Olivier Lemelin is currently a Threat Hunter at a major Canadain Telco and has been a part of the security industry for the last five years.

In his free time, he enjoys binary exploitation, Emacs, LISP programming, and gardening, all from the comfort of his $HOME.
