- tptacek 13y agoHis bio said he spoke at Black Hat. I can't find anything listed by him except for an "Arsenal" talk, which is a lightning talk people can give about open-source tools they've written. Can someone find a real BH talk this guy has given?
- espeed 13y agoUnder his site's "Presentations" section (https://www.trustedsec.com/downloads/presentations/ https://www.trustedsec.com/downloads/presentations/), it lists this talk... "July 2010 – Blackhat and Defcon Presentation on PowerShell" (http://www.trustedsec.com/files/PowerShell_Defcon.pdf http://www.trustedsec.com/files/PowerShell_Defcon.pdf)
- tptacek 13y agoThanks. Yep, that counts.
- hellokitteh 13y agoThe guy co-authored Metasploit: The Penetration Testers Guide book. Doesn't the fact that you're unaware of this prominent person call into question your own credibility?
- borski 13y agoNo. 'tptacek is a VERY well respected individual within the infosec community. Moreover, if I knew every author or every infosec book, I would have very little time to do anything else.
- tptacek 13y agoExactly why would I be impressed by someone writing a trade press book about a tool someone else wrote? I know who HD Moore is. I know who Matt Miller is. They started the Metasploit project. Most people in my field know those people. They're famous. HD Moore has, last I checked, a special Metasploit Porsche. It says Metasploit on it, in neon or some shit. (No disrespect to the Metasploitmobile, whatever it is). Similarly: I know who Gordon Lyon is; he wrote nmap. Everyone knows him. Who the hell knows the authors of _Nmap In The Enterprise: Your Guide To Network Scanning_? Nobody. The author of "Metasploit: The Penetration Testers Guide" does not drive a special Metasploit: The Penetration Testers Guide Porsche.
