woman all right so what 14 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,079 about now right Marilyn Monroe is the 15 00:00:32,079 --> 00:00:34,520 poster child for Charisma but her 16 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,879 biggest secret power was the fact that 17 00:00:35,879 --> 00:00:38,079 she could actually turn it off so marily 18 00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:39,600 Monroe Love New York and one of the 19 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,200 favorite stories that I have from that 20 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:42,920 is she was wandering through New York 21 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:43,879 with her photographer and the 22 00:00:43,879 --> 00:00:46,199 photographer's wife they rode the subway 23 00:00:46,199 --> 00:00:47,399 they ate lunch they walked down the 24 00:00:47,399 --> 00:00:49,640 street no one turned no one batted an 25 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,680 eye no one saw her finally she turned to 26 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:54,680 the couple and she said would you like 27 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,840 to see her and she like taking off the 28 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,760 mask Drew herself up to her full height 29 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,440 and then cars started slowing down and 30 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,199 honking people started stopping in the 31 00:01:04,199 --> 00:01:06,360 street a crowd gathered when just 32 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,960 minutes before they had passed her right 33 00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:12,200 by a lot of social Engineers would kill 34 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,680 to have the Charisma of Maryland Monroe 35 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,439 to be able to attract people and to be 36 00:01:15,439 --> 00:01:17,520 infectious like that but really I think 37 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,960 that that antisocial or that ability to 38 00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:22,040 turn that off and blend in is the best 39 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,880 superpower you could have and that's 40 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,040 what antisocial engineering is going to 41 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,040 be 42 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,680 about so a little bit about me uh um so 43 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,439 some fun facts I'm not social I'm a 44 00:01:33,439 --> 00:01:36,680 total introvert um it's counterintuitive 45 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,439 because if you see me to con I'm 46 00:01:38,439 --> 00:01:40,479 charismatic I talk to people these are 47 00:01:40,479 --> 00:01:43,000 all learned skills over time um really 48 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,360 I'd rather be at home with my wife and 49 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:45,200 my 50 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,840 dog uh I'm a card magician I typically 51 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,600 don't talk about that anywhere but uh 52 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,479 it's a good place so the reason I say 53 00:01:52,479 --> 00:01:53,960 that I got into card magic for the same 54 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,680 reason I got into social engineering in 55 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,159 my early 20s I got of a long-term 56 00:01:57,159 --> 00:01:59,000 relationship I had no idea how to talk 57 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,360 to people or or women and so I did the 58 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,759 most logical thing and thought what's 59 00:02:02,759 --> 00:02:04,000 the best way to meet women and it's 60 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,640 learn card 61 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,598 magic it actually worked so I met my 62 00:02:09,598 --> 00:02:12,120 wife in a hookah bar doing card 63 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,400 magic thank 64 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,560 you uh so another just a housekeeping 65 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,800 thing is I had three main career goals 66 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,120 talk at Defcon uh so I think each and 67 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:25,599 every one of you that woke up at 9:00 in 68 00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:26,879 the morning after the night that we all 69 00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:29,160 had to be here this morning uh I want to 70 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,920 get a CV but a good one so like 71 00:02:30,920 --> 00:02:32,640 something like zero log on and I want to 72 00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:35,840 steal a baby so if anyone here works at 73 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,400 a hospital and needs a physical pen test 74 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,519 I'll give you a hell of a 75 00:02:39,519 --> 00:02:41,840 deal uh but outside of that I've got the 76 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,879 best job in the world uh I get to chase 77 00:02:43,879 --> 00:02:45,920 the things that set my soul on fire I do 78 00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:47,680 just the things that are fun I get to 79 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,519 talk my way into and out of really 80 00:02:49,519 --> 00:02:52,480 secure areas I get to rob banks like who 81 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:53,879 gets to say that I mean a bunch of 82 00:02:53,879 --> 00:02:57,000 people in this room but in typical 83 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,959 company so the why of this talk uh if 84 00:02:59,959 --> 00:03:01,360 you're anything like me you're in Social 85 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:02,760 Engineering Village because you actually 86 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,959 suck at being social and so who here's 87 00:03:05,959 --> 00:03:08,720 read some of these books or yeah all of 88 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,879 these books so I read every book I could 89 00:03:11,879 --> 00:03:14,440 on social engineering and how to talk to 90 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,239 people what I soon realize that those 91 00:03:16,239 --> 00:03:18,000 books were written by people who also 92 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,519 learned all their skills from 93 00:03:19,519 --> 00:03:22,040 books um so like for those of you that 94 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,920 have read The Power of Habit you still 95 00:03:23,920 --> 00:03:26,080 suck at making habits 96 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,080 right it's because that book wasn't 97 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,920 written for you these books w't w't 98 00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:32,439 written for you 99 00:03:32,439 --> 00:03:35,840 sorry oh I'm keep it high okay these 100 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,480 books weren't written for you so power 101 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,000 habit it doesn't matter if you do a 102 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,799 27-day habit because you're a little 103 00:03:40,799 --> 00:03:42,879 neuros spicy you're going to have to use 104 00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:44,599 anxiety and caffeine to actually fuel 105 00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:46,798 that 106 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,920 habit I want to get away from that 107 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,319 traditional advice I hate this right 108 00:03:52,319 --> 00:03:54,000 everyone says just act like you belong 109 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,280 just carry a clipboard look busy put on 110 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,000 a high Vis vest carry a ladder uh 111 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,799 carrying Ladd is one of the fastest ways 112 00:04:00,799 --> 00:04:03,519 to get interrogated by an office manager 113 00:04:03,519 --> 00:04:07,400 but you can try it um what I I do want 114 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,439 to say is there's a a good argument for 115 00:04:10,439 --> 00:04:12,760 natural versus learned social Engineers 116 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:13,879 just like all those books we talked 117 00:04:13,879 --> 00:04:15,840 about earlier most of those books are 118 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,120 written by people that are doing the 119 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,680 thing you can't learn by not doing the 120 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,520 thing right all this uh Verbal Judo 121 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,840 neural linguistic programming all those 122 00:04:24,840 --> 00:04:27,160 are just crappy words invented by people 123 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,759 that wanted to sell books uh but I want 124 00:04:29,759 --> 00:04:31,720 dispel that myth that social engineering 125 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,960 is all about bravado and being arrogant 126 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,280 and this generation's conmen and just 127 00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:38,919 walking confidently you can be good 128 00:04:38,919 --> 00:04:41,759 without having to be 129 00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:43,560 social so we're going to cover our 130 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,919 kryptonites and our Charisma Buffs the 131 00:04:45,919 --> 00:04:47,280 first step to being good is knowing what 132 00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:49,639 you suck at owning what you suck at 133 00:04:49,639 --> 00:04:53,720 either improving it or moving it out so 134 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,479 anxiety is one of the worst things uh 135 00:04:55,479 --> 00:04:57,759 you can imagine the anxiety of I'm going 136 00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:00,080 to go rob a bank right how do you even 137 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,240 prep for that so one of the things that 138 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,960 I do is the first thing I do anytime I 139 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,280 get in somewhere is I go into the 140 00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:08,919 bathroom I just chill out for 10 minutes 141 00:05:08,919 --> 00:05:10,320 not only does it give you time to like 142 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,520 reformulate and like get the nerves down 143 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,639 get the Jitters out but it also if 144 00:05:14,639 --> 00:05:15,960 you've got a security guard following 145 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,400 you and you sit down they usually won't 146 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:18,919 wait you 147 00:05:18,919 --> 00:05:21,120 out uh so the other things that I do is 148 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,520 I don't drink any coffee or Red Bull 149 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,440 beforehand and then I get myself in the 150 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,600 mindset because for me robbing A bank's 151 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,080 a Tuesday so I gotta think it's a 152 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,720 Tuesday so kind of close my eyes a 153 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,280 little bit maybe I'll I'll yawn it out 154 00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:34,759 I'll listen to one of those audiobooks 155 00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:36,680 we mentioned earlier just so I can make 156 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,440 sure I'm really 157 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,039 bored 158 00:05:40,039 --> 00:05:43,000 yeah so the other thing you'll notice is 159 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,880 a lot of people don't fully commit to 160 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,759 their bit or to their Persona so they 161 00:05:47,759 --> 00:05:49,560 put on a stupid voice or they use a 162 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,520 stupid pretext and you'll notice this 163 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:52,800 you watch someone that actually does a 164 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,160 vision call they'll maybe do a n nasly 165 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,639 voice and they're going to try to I 166 00:05:57,639 --> 00:05:58,919 don't know it's like they're making a 167 00:05:58,919 --> 00:06:00,160 prank call 168 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,120 and so our neurotypical friends can see 169 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,120 right through that and see when you're 170 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,240 being disingenuous the other one is a 171 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,720 stupid Alias and pretext I am guilty of 172 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,319 this don't tell someone that your name 173 00:06:09,319 --> 00:06:11,440 is Rick 174 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,599 asley or when you're robbing a bank 175 00:06:13,599 --> 00:06:15,560 don't introduce yourself as Robert Banks 176 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,039 or rob 177 00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:20,840 banks uh the other ones are uh talking 178 00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:23,240 too much and overe explaining I am bad 179 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:24,680 about this and some of the best advice I 180 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,960 ever got was just shut up why are you 181 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,520 talking so when we break in somewhere 182 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,759 you're you're on the phone with someone 183 00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:33,720 don't look a gift horse in the mouth 184 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,759 I've done SE calls where I call up hey 185 00:06:36,759 --> 00:06:38,960 this is Andrew I'm back in guy I start 186 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,800 trying to explain it she's she says 187 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,599 you're here from it great just let me 188 00:06:43,599 --> 00:06:46,440 just remote in understand when to stop 189 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,960 talking you can just shut up and at that 190 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,039 point I learned oh well now I can go 191 00:06:51,039 --> 00:06:52,720 into Rapport building this woman wanted 192 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,319 to talk about her kids taking them to 193 00:06:54,319 --> 00:06:57,000 the aquarium we talked where we're going 194 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,800 vacation and she was the lead of the 195 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,199 department she she ended up handing me 196 00:07:00,199 --> 00:07:02,919 to everyone else she said I said is 197 00:07:02,919 --> 00:07:04,560 there anyone else that help me and I got 198 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,240 to fish her entire department because 199 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,400 she gave me that social proof but in 200 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,440 that same way like if you're walking in 201 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:11,680 with the ladder you don't have to 202 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,280 explain to people like I'm climbing a 203 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,879 ladder

00:08:05,759 acting suspicious and this is uh 226 00:08:05,759 --> 00:08:07,280 important for later on when you're doing 227 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,720 a physical pent test don't creep around 228 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,680 you're not like don't don't like slide 229 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,039 into doors I've done that I'm guilty of 230 00:08:15,039 --> 00:08:17,280 it um you know like

00:08:34,039 --> 00:08:35,479 that's less suspicious than someone 240 00:08:35,479 --> 00:08:37,839 that's decked out in Tac gear and then 241 00:08:37,839 --> 00:08:41,360 Collision courses a great thing I didn't 242 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,640 realize 243 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,440 that there are times where you can avoid 244 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,800 Collision courses when I say a collision 245 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,279 course that means you're going up 246 00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:50,279 against a gatekeeper and on one of my 247 00:08:50,279 --> 00:08:51,800 first physical pen tests we're walking 248 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,080 across a parking lot and the security 249 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:55,959 guard stops and they wait and we're on a 250 00:08:55,959 --> 00:08:57,920 clear crash course I have to walk past 251 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,240 them we're in the middle of this big 252 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,079 open parking lot and the other engineer 253 00:09:01,079 --> 00:09:03,000 with me goes hey man just have a seat 254 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,800 right here and we sat down in a parking 255 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,000 block and we just talked for 10 minutes 256 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,320 and finally security went away you don't 257 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,160 have to force that interaction but as 258 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:12,959 someone that's antisocial we think oh 259 00:09:12,959 --> 00:09:14,079 God we don't want to look weird we want 260 00:09:14,079 --> 00:09:15,640 to make sure we look human want to make 261 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,000 sure that we follow the script when you 262 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,800 can just sit 263 00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:23,160 down so now that we figured out your uh 264 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,240 your kryptonites and the Charisma Buffs 265 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,519 we're going to cover your superpowers 266 00:09:27,519 --> 00:09:29,320 the six skills on the left those are 267 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,120 pretty much self-explanatory those are 268 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,880 things that you all naturally possess 269 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:34,880 that you can do those are perfect for 270 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,760 you not having to interact with people 271 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,399 and that's where you can get into places 272 00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:40,200 and do things without feeling the need 273 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,640 to talk about the sports scores or 274 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,480 strike up a 275 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,920 conversation um antisocial people are 276 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,680 really conflict diverse we don't want to 277 00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:52,079 have to talk to people we're already 278 00:09:52,079 --> 00:09:53,800 stressed out about how we're conversing 279 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,320 as it is so to be conflict diverse we 280 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,440 will tend to avoid the people in that 281 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,079 same token being conflict diverse we're 282 00:10:01,079 --> 00:10:02,720 we also are really good at picking up 283 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,480 non-verbal cues whatever you can say 284 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,440 about antisocial people not being able 285 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:07,800 to read someone or maybe people on 286 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,360 somewhere on the Spectrum not being good 287 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,560 at reading people they are because 288 00:10:11,560 --> 00:10:13,000 they've practiced and they've honed 289 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,600 knowing which people would be nice to 290 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,959 them and which people will be jerks um 291 00:10:17,959 --> 00:10:20,600 later on in the talk I will follow these 292 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,600 rules and I'll also break these rules 293 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:23,760 because there are times when I'm trying 294 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,120 to blend in and there's times when I'm 295 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,600 trying to get 296 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,200 caught uh active listening that's 297 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,160 another good skill to have if you're 298 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,920 good at paying attention you can pick up 299 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,800 maybe a name or a thing U you have no 300 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,120 idea how many server rooms we found just 301 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,720 by listening for White Noise uh you just 302 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,200 listen for fan noise you can find them 303 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,959 you can hear people coming or walking 304 00:10:43,959 --> 00:10:46,279 around um a lot of times I've used it 305 00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:48,279 when I started like uh hey I'm here to 306 00:10:48,279 --> 00:10:50,360 see so and so and they go check to 307 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,480 someone and they say oh was he here with 308 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:53,920 that other guy and then when the person 309 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,399 comes back I say oh yeah I was here with 310 00:10:55,399 --> 00:10:58,079 Dan yesterday and oh great okay perfect 311 00:10:58,079 --> 00:11:00,720 so you can use that the hyperfocus pays 312 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,560 in like ahead of time um when you're 313 00:11:03,560 --> 00:11:05,399 doing your pre-engagement and you have 314 00:11:05,399 --> 00:11:07,079 to learn everything about every Niche 315 00:11:07,079 --> 00:11:09,600 and everything uh you can pick up the 316 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,320 maps whatever it is the hyper awareness 317 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,279 that comes with the the sight The Sounds 318 00:11:15,279 --> 00:11:17,240 uh pattern recognition that's everything 319 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,079 from how employees act how buildings are 320 00:11:19,079 --> 00:11:21,880 laid out and then being comfortable with 321 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,519 silence um every time you talk every 322 00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:28,680 interaction you have is a battle it is a 323 00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:30,839 I'm going to be caught so if you 324 00:11:30,839 --> 00:11:32,800 minimize the opportunity for people to 325 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,880 talk to you you minimize your chance of 326 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,560 getting caught there's a a theory called 327 00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:40,120 conversation threading where instead of 328 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,440 saying hey what do you do for work and 329 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,360 you say I'm a pentester you say hey I'm 330 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,480 a pentester in Oklahoma I mainly focus 331 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,360 on red teaming but when I'm not doing 332 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,040 that I want to be at home with my dog 333 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,240 that's where talking too much gets you 334 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,839 in trouble because that first answer was 335 00:11:53,839 --> 00:11:55,519 a simple okay there's not much to build 336 00:11:55,519 --> 00:11:59,600 on but when you give someone six things 337 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,079 then they can there's more scrutiny they 338 00:12:01,079 --> 00:12:02,680 can have so if you can just walk into an 339 00:12:02,680 --> 00:12:06,319 elevator and shut up you're going to do 340 00:12:06,639 --> 00:12:08,519 good all right so we're going to cover 341 00:12:08,519 --> 00:12:10,240 the the methodology of a physical pen 342 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,000 test so we do a high a medium and a low 343 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,320 skill attack so we want to do this 344 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,040 because it's a a spread it's not a a 345 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,480 oneandone and the customer fails it 346 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,079 gives them multiple levels to see where 347 00:12:22,079 --> 00:12:24,880 their weaknesses are so we start with 348 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,000 the high that's the guy on the left they 349 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,440 have the clipboard they've got the 350 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,720 outfit it uh we may have pulled 351 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,279 signatures and put calendar reminders on 352 00:12:33,279 --> 00:12:35,959 because we compromised the VPN they have 353 00:12:35,959 --> 00:12:37,560 everything that they need to be 354 00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:39,440 successful you would think that person 355 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,000 would actually be the most successful 356 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,480 but it turns out that they're caught the 357 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,399 most often because they have the most 358 00:12:45,399 --> 00:12:47,279 opportunity they have the most holes 359 00:12:47,279 --> 00:12:50,040 they have the most gotes uh people have 360 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,600 a process for dealing with the guy on 361 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:53,800 the left that has everything he's 362 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,720 supposed to the person in the middle 363 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,279 that's your medium skill attack it's 364 00:12:58,279 --> 00:13:00,720 your assumptions so they're going to be 365 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,360 your water guy the FedEx person it's not 366 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,279 the Postal Service don't imitate the 367 00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:07,639 Postal Service six months in jail 368 00:13:07,639 --> 00:13:11,680 $10,000 fine don't imitate the FCC same 369 00:13:11,680 --> 00:13:13,360 thing don't imitate the authority of the 370 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,480 FCC they will get really pissed just 371 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,199 throw that out there but the guy in the 372 00:13:17,199 --> 00:13:18,880 middle their job is to be the 373 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,600 assumptions so they're going to have 374 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,199 maybe the pretext they're going to look 375 00:13:22,199 --> 00:13:23,760 the part they're going to let you assume 376 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,360 they're supposed to be there but they're 377 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:26,440 not going to have anything once they 378 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,120 fall apart and then you have the low 379 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,199 skill attack it is the idiot off the 380 00:13:30,199 --> 00:13:32,199 street it's the I'm not supposed to be 381 00:13:32,199 --> 00:13:35,199 in here guy that's me and I absolutely 382 00:13:35,199 --> 00:13:37,800 love my 383 00:13:37,839 --> 00:13:40,800 job so as the low skill attacker my guy 384 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,800 my job is to get as deep into an 385 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,079 organization as possible and just look 386 00:13:45,079 --> 00:13:47,600 weird and if I'm not weird enough then 387 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,240 it's getting weirder and weirder until 388 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,759 someone finally says who are you what 389 00:13:51,759 --> 00:13:52,880 are you 390 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,079 doing uh it's a skill that you have to 391 00:13:55,079 --> 00:13:57,079 be comfortable lying to people's faces 392 00:13:57,079 --> 00:13:59,440 thinking on your feet um you know 393 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,519 talking under pressure and then also 394 00:14:01,519 --> 00:14:06,040 lockpicking and lock bypassing uh Under 395 00:14:07,399 --> 00:14:09,560 Pressure so we'll go ahead and jump into 396 00:14:09,560 --> 00:14:11,560 an engagement so this first story 397 00:14:11,560 --> 00:14:14,040 happens during the day uh the scope is 398 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,160 breaking into 399 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,399 organization given uh demonstrate the 400 00:14:17,399 --> 00:14:19,079 ability to interrupt critical business 401 00:14:19,079 --> 00:14:21,320 process they want to spend as much time 402 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:22,160 as 403 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,880 possible maximize the interactions 404 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,839 escalate till someone finally confronts 405 00:14:26,839 --> 00:14:28,720 you and take a picture with some 406 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:29,920 critical 407 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,839 infrastructure so a little bit about the 408 00:14:31,839 --> 00:14:33,440 facility it's a gated facility they've 409 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,279 got armed guards at the entry points I'm 410 00:14:35,279 --> 00:14:36,399 going to be a little vague about the 411 00:14:36,399 --> 00:14:38,639 industry for NDA reasons uh but 412 00:14:38,639 --> 00:14:41,240 essentially I scoped everything out 413 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,680 Google mapped it we did a ton of 414 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,279 pretexting and planning and we knew we 415 00:14:44,279 --> 00:14:45,480 couldn't get in the front door because 416 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,279 it's armed guard they vet everyone 417 00:14:47,279 --> 00:14:49,880 through it's not going to be great but 418 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,959 there's a parking garage so the day of 419 00:14:51,959

an organization at night um they 530 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:44,360 wanted me to go out of my way to avoid 531 00:18:44,360 --> 00:18:47,039 interaction so try not to confront 532 00:18:47,039 --> 00:18:49,440 anyone uh for a while try to maximize 533 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,039 your time on site and if you've been 534 00:18:51,039 --> 00:18:52,840 there for a while like an hour and no 535 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,240 one's confronted you because they said 536 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,400 it's super secure site but if you make 537 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,120 it an hour without anyone confronting 538 00:18:58,120 --> 00:18:59,720 you well then you need to start 539 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,360 escalating and get someone to talk to 540 00:19:01,360 --> 00:19:03,919 you and then of course take selfies with 541 00:19:03,919 --> 00:19:04,919 critical 542 00:19:04,919 --> 00:19:09,919 infrastructure so being at nighttime uh 543 00:19:09,919 --> 00:19:12,919 sorry so being nighttime uh there wasn't 544 00:19:12,919 --> 00:19:15,360 this option to you know like maybe 545 00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:17,200 tailgate behind someone I was going to 546 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,840 look out a place so I climbed The Back 547 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,000 Fence uh and I walked around all the 548 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,600 doors and I took a number two pencil and 549 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,520 I leaned it against the hinge uh thanks 550 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,440 FC if he's here I heard that on one of 551 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,159 his talks and it's been a godsend so the 552 00:19:30,159 --> 00:19:31,559 pencil leans against the hinge the next 553 00:19:31,559 --> 00:19:32,960 time someone opens the door pencil falls 554 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,720 in the hinge you got a nice little booby 555 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,640 trap so I set that and I go hide behind 556 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,840 an air conditioning unit for 30 minutes 557 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,840 uh 30 minutes later come back someone 558 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,159 sprung my trap and then you can guess 559 00:19:44,159 --> 00:19:45,600 the first thing I did when I got in I 560 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,600 went to the bathroom to calm my nerves 561 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,200 chill out and I started walking around I 562 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,840 put my headphones in my airpods and I 563 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:53,720 threw them in transparency mode so I 564 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,120 could pick up all those little noises uh 565 00:19:56,120 --> 00:19:57,520 one of the side notes from the after 566 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,480 action review that customer kept saying 567 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,360 it was like you had a sick sense like 568 00:20:01,360 --> 00:20:03,280 you knew where people were coming from 569 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,000 cuz everyone just missed you what they 570 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,559 didn't realiz that people walk like 571 00:20:07,559 --> 00:20:10,159 horses and that I could hear them coming 572 00:20:10,159 --> 00:20:11,760 and so anytime I heard someone I would 573 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,480 just duck around a corner or drop into a 574 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,080 room um but as far as that goes did all 575 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,039 the things I went to the 576 00:20:20,039 --> 00:20:22,640 places uh got all of my Flags dropped 577 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,480 all my business cards where I needed and 578 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,200 I'm like okay well let's maximize 579 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,240 interactions so I went to the break room 580 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:29,640 room and again it's night shift but 581 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,799 they've got a whole busy facility so I 582 00:20:31,799 --> 00:20:34,360 sit in the break room I talk to people 583 00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:35,880 uh a good way to get people's attention 584 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,400 is to start going through the fridge uh 585 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,880 so I did that no one confronted me uh I 586 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,480 walked to the main production plant and 587 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,240 started opening cabinets that I wasn't 588 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,480 supposed to and trying to touch things 589 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,640 and again no one bothered me uh it 590 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,080 wasn't until I finally tried to access 591 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:52,919 an area that had diesel generators and 592 00:20:52,919 --> 00:20:54,559 battery backups that one of the 593 00:20:54,559 --> 00:20:56,320 engineers stopped me because he's like 594 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,320 um what are you doing I said I'm here 595

figure to pull that off I got to just be 632 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,679 myself right so I got to use my 633 00:22:17,679 --> 00:22:20,279 unfriendly demeanor my resting uh jerk 634 00:22:20,279 --> 00:22:23,000 face um yeah being able to lockpick 635 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,679 Under Pressure being able to lie to 636 00:22:24,679 --> 00:22:25,679 people that was the great thing about 637 00:22:25,679 --> 00:22:28,640 being a magician was you learn to talk 638 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:29,919 to people and tell them you're doing one 639 00:22:29,919 --> 00:22:30,840 thing while you're
