From Hooks to Shields: The Evolution of Phishing and the Art of Defense by John Dilgen

Description
In this presentation, I will explore some of the most notable phishing methods identified by RQ over the past year, focusing on real-world examples and practical defense strategies. The session will cover 3 key phishing techniques, including Black Basta Teams impersonation, CAPTCHA-based attacks that lead to user execution, and Scatter Spider VIP impersonation. For each method, I will provide tangible examples, along with insights into investigation and detection approaches that can help mitigate these threats.

Designed with students in mind, this talk will be delivered at a high level, avoiding overly technical jargon, and fostering a learning mindset. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how these phishing tactics operate and actionable steps to defend against them. The ultimate goal is to equip participants with foundational knowledge and awareness to navigate today’s evolving phishing landscape.
