🎤 Talk Title: Threat Actors Do the Funniest Things

👤 Speaker: Peter Mackenzie

📝 Abstract:
Digital Forensics and Incident Response isn’t always glamorous — but it’s rarely boring. This talk shares real-world stories from the incident response trenches that are strange, awkward, or just funny.

You’ll hear about:
A victim who got encrypted five times by three different groups — in just two weeks.
An attacker who left a helpful incident report… and a glowing review of our tech.
The surreal moment we declared a network clear, only to hear: “my mouse is moving.”
How an attack on a frozen food manufatur ended with the CEO using a fan to keep food cold.
Malware-infected hacker tools that made detection almost too easy.
The attacker who installed our product on their test box, allowing us to identify them (thank you!)

Expect a light-hearted, honest look at those moments you can't plan for — and couldn’t make up if you tried.

⚓ This talk was recorded live at BSides Bournemouth 2025 on 16th August 2025 — a community-driven cybersecurity conference bringing together researchers, practitioners, and enthusiasts to share knowledge, skills, and ideas.
