Judging by their comments, participants appreciated the latest sessions of the celebrated Hacking by Numbers training courses quite a lot !
These trainings, organized by Navixia in collaboration with Sensepost, took place in Lausanne between September 20-29, 2006. They provided a complete and practical window, at different levels, into the methods and thinking of hackers. The courses were conducted by Roelof Temmingh, founder member and Technical Director of Sensepost, where his primary function is that of external penetration specialist. Roelof is internationally recognised for his skills in the assessment of web servers. He has written various pieces of PERL code as proof of concept for known vulnerabilities, and coded the world-first anti-IDS web proxy "Pudding". He has spoken at many International Conferences and in the past year alone has been a keynote speaker at SummerCon (Holland) and a speaker at the Black Hat Briefings. Here are some of the comments our participants were kind enough to make after attending : HBN Bootcamp Edition: an introduction to hacking.
