This mini workshop is based on the successful 44Con talk this year and will introduce you to Industrial Ethernet Switches and their vulnerabilities. These switches are used in environments with industrial automation equipment, like substations, factories, refineries, and ports; in other words, SCADA and ICS switches. You will become familiar with how these switches are used and do some light traffic analysis and firmware reverse engineering, '''bring your laptop with Wireshark installed!!''' During this workshop, Eireann will discuss several vulnerabilities and share the methods used to discover them as well as techniques for exploitation.  
 
 
 
This is partially a hands-on workshop, with pcaps, network forensics, binary analysis, web application vulnerabilities, etc. It teaches about bad session entropy, sidejacking, CSRF, brute forcing MD5, DoS in the context of industrial processes, and carving default private keys from firmware images. Essentially, this is "how I found the bugs in my CVE list for 2013-2014", breaking industrial ethernet switches.
