Stuxnet, Polymorphic Malware, Lock-picking, Pizza & Beer!!

The first DEFCON Toronto meetup, hosted at VM Farms. Dolev Farhi presented on Stuxnet, the state-grade malware discovered in 2010 and believed to be a joint Israeli and American build. Pooria Madani covered polymorphic and metamorphic malware, including his research on detecting the metamorphic kind. Nick Aleks ran an interactive lock-picking session. There were live demos and tools for anyone who wanted to try it.

Pooria was a PhD candidate at York University, working on applied machine learning and data mining in cybersecurity. Jobspring helped organize the night.
