AppSec Labs will be offering two different courses, covering the two major mobile operating systems. Over two days, both Android Application Hacking - PenTesting Mobile Apps and iOS Application Hacking - PenTesting Mobile Apps will get you up to speed on penetration testing of apps for each platform in question. Both cover broad topics like traffic analysis and manipulation, insecure data storage, hacking application packages, and analyzing runtime analysis -- but the hows, if not the whys, will vary based on your OS of interest. (If you just can't choose, the Android course is running twice, so you could take both!)
The OWASP Mobile Security Project aims to help developers create secure mobile applications, with a focus on, not just end-user apps, but the server-side infrastructure apps communicate with, as well as cloud platform-specific features. Now the project's leads are spinning their mobile security expertise into a two-day pentesting Training called Advanced Mobile Penetration Testing with OWASP MobiSec. If you're down for some intense, lab-driven learning about techniques, tools, and methodologies for testing iOS, Android, and web-based applications, then there’s a seat for you in this training.

Everything You Need to Know About DNS AttacksIt's important to understand DNS, potential attacks against it, and the tools and techniques required to defend DNS infrastructure. This report answers all the questions you were afraid to ask.

Attackers are causing a great deal of damage with an array of attacks such as denial of service, DNS cache poisoning, DNS hijackin, DNS tunneling, and DNS dangling. They are using DNS infrastructure to take control of inbound and outbound communications and preventing users from accessing the applications they are looking for. To stop attacks on DNS, security teams need to shore up the organization's security hygiene around DNS infrastructure, implement controls such as DNSSEC, and monitor DNS traffic
