Talk 4: Cloud Metadata Attacks: How to detect this Rising Threat and it’s sneaky evasion tactics

I will be talking around cloud metadata attacks in AWS and how if IMDSV1 is used, this can give attackers an in to grab credentials for an full account takeover. I will be discussing big publicly known incidents where this attack has happened in the past, detection methods using various log sources such as AWS CloudTrail, AWS WAF and Cloudwatch logs and sneaky evasion tactics that attackers may use including VPC endpoints & URL shorteners.
