This year, all eyes will once again be on DEFCON (https://defcon.org/index.html). DEFCON is where the world’s elite Hackers come to play under the heat of the Las Vegas sun, and by night, well that’s Vegas!  Still, inside the cool dark ballrooms of the Convention Center and swanky Strip hotels, stakes are high. Crowds will be watching and waiting to see who will win the Big-Fight.  Anamo (https://anamo.io/), the  newcomer (The Challenger) has been given Vegas-Odds to challenge the Red Teams (The Reigning Champions) of DEFCON, in an all-out battle to determine who will dominate C2 of US-Based Critical Infrastructure assets.

DEFCON and US ProTech

DEFCON celebrates its 33rd year in Las Vegas.  US ProTech, a 25-Year-Old Cybersecurity MSSP and software development company, also based in Las Vegas, NV, created products like the GRC App and the Anamo CDM Cybersecurity platform. US ProTech security engineers were once Red-Team Pen-Testers which spurred the concept to reverse engineer Pen-testing techniques and Anamo was born. Now matured and currently deploying version 3, Anamo delivers it functionality from patent-pending technology that evaluates Comparative HashID Analytics against a deep collection of Cybersecurity forensics nested in a set of relational databases 

Anamo claims the ability to identify a Hacker, on any system (where the Anamo Agent has been deployed) in one-move.  Yes, the facts are out, Anamo has cracked the code to delivering near real-time dashboard updates that track IoA’s (Indicators or Attack) and IoC’s (Indicators of Compromise) using Never-Before-Seen functionality that has been described by a General of the U.S. Air Force, as “Phenomenal!” 

 

The Audience will be top-notch

Expected overseers include ranking members of CISA, the DHS, even the FBI will be in the room (no doubt wearing their refined costumes of dark suits). But it will be the Red Teams of Hackers who will be most present in The Hacker Village as they prepare and attack replications of some our Nation’s most important industrial systems, aka Critical Infrastructure. Who will capture the flag?  The cat and mouse games played at DEFCON have long been revered as the playground of the BlackHats.  But over the past 20 years, GrayHats and WhiteHats are now equally represented and equally dangerous behind those rather attractive back-lite keyboards. Can the Red Teams usurp the security measures of today’s critical infrastructure?  Will they be able to land, load, and maneuver at will in an effort to “Capture the Flag?  Or will Anamo “CDM,” in support of the Blue Teams, demonstrate that CDM (aka Continuous Diagnostics & Mitigation) is better, faster, and more effective at identifying the hackers and supporting the elimination of unauthorized privileged account escalation.  The action is on!  And this August 7th through the 10, the competition will take center stage.  Be there to witness the action, limited tickets to DEFCON are still available, get your tickets today!
