Title
Your Cloud Got Breached and They Liked It
In this session, we’ll dive into a series of cloud attack stories inspired by real-world incidents. You’ll see recorded demos and proof-of-concepts that show how things go wrong when cloud setups aren’t locked down properly.
We’ll introduce a few fictional hacker personas based on actual tactics. Watch how they take advantage of misconfigurations, overly generous permissions, and forgotten secrets to compromise environments like AWS. We’ll walk through what they did, how they did it, and just how bad things can get when the wrong people get access.
