2026-10-03 –, WORKSHOP 1 (Neon Genesis Exploitation) Language: English
Delivered through Fortra's Zero-Point Security training platform, this hands-on workshop provides an introduction to Cobalt Strike, its core components, and the product philosophy behind modern adversary simulation and red team operations.
Attendees will begin by exploring the Cobalt Strike ecosystem, including key concepts such as Team Servers, Beacons, listeners, and communication channels. Through interactive labs, participants will learn how to deploy and manage Beacons, work with HTTP, SMB,
and TCP listeners, and understand how Beacon communication topologies can be modified in real time.
The workshop also covers code execution fundamentals using Cobalt Strike's Resource Kit, where attendees will customize payload resources, generate and host payloads, and execute them within a controlled lab environment.
By the end of the session, participants will have a foundational understanding of Cobalt Strike's architecture, Beacon communications, listener types, payload delivery, and customization techniques commonly used in adversary emulation and red team engagements.
