Seccubus - Analyzing Vulnerability Assessment Data the Easy Way

Frank Breedijk

Frank Breedijk explores seccubus - analyzing vulnerability assessment data the easy way at DEF CON 18, examining penetration-testing and practical defenses.

Summary

Architecture and Background

Frank Breedijk - Seccubus - Analyzing Vulnerability Assessment Data the Easy Way As part of his job as Security Engineer at Schuberg Philis, Frank Breedijk performs regular security scans. The repetitive nature of scanning the same customer infrastructure over and over again made him decide to look for a more automated approach. After building his first scanning scheduler he realized that it actually does not make sense to look at all findings every time they are reported.

Vulnerability Analysis

It would be much better to only investigate the deltas between the scans. The philosophy behind Seccubus was born. In his presentation Frank will demonstrate Seccubus by performing scans of a live demo environment and explain its inner working and the philosophy behind it.
