BHIS Webcasts

How do sideloading techniques work in today’s runtime environment? Join us for a free one-hour BHIS webcast with Matthew Eidelberg on proxy execution via Microsoft Edge WebView2. Matthew will break down techniques that blur the line between legitimate app behavior and malicious activity, showing how shared runtime components are changing execution and detection boundaries. You’ll learn how traditional sideloading concepts apply in modern environments, how WebView2 is increasingly embedded across the ecosystem, and how attackers can exploit it to bypass common detection methods. 🛝 Webcast Slides https://www.blackhillsinfosec.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Proxy-Execution-with-Microsoft-Edge-Webview2.pdf Chapters (00:00) - Intro - Proxy Execution with Microsoft Edge WebView2 - Matthew Eidelberg (00:49) - Agenda (01:31) - DLL Hijacking (04:48) - DLL Proxy Attacks (06:05) - Execution Flow (07:17) - Windows Apps (12:05) - What is WebView2?

How does PAM abuse fit into a real‑world attack chain? 🛝 Webcast Slides https://www.blackhillsinfosec.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/PAM_Tool_Slide_Deck.pdf Join us for a free one‑hour BHIS webinar with Ben Bowman as he introduces PAMSkeletonKey, a tool designed for red teamers and CTF players to explore persistence, lateral movement, and privilege escalation on Linux systems. Ben will teach why the tool was created, how to use it safely in lab environments, and what this technique means for defenders working to detect or prevent authentication abuse. You'll learn a practical understanding of Linux PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) authentication and how it can be abused to create a skeleton‑key backdoor for persistence.

What if you could safely harness AI agents to automate real work, without spending a dime? Join us for a free one-hour BHIS webcast with Ethan Robish and Derek Banks to cut through the hype and learn what coding agents really are, why they’re not just for developers, and how to start for free. You’ll learn how tools like Opencode work, how to overcome security and trust barriers, and how to give agents the context, skills, and guardrails they need to safely plan, execute, and iterate. 🛝 Webcast Slides https://www.blackhillsinfosec.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/SLIDES_Mar-26-Learning-to-Trust-AI-Agents-with-Automation-w-Ethan-Robish.pdf Chapters (00:00) - Intro - Learning to Trust AI Agents with Automation Ethan and Derek (01:37) - Background (05:26) - What is a coding agent?

What if an attacker lived inside your network for seven months and your tools never noticed? During a real breach assessment, Black Hills Information Security uncovered a stealthy intrusion using a COM-based persistence technique hidden in native Windows scheduled tasks. There were no obvious indicators of compromise. No suspicious process names. No malicious file hashes. Just a quiet foothold designed to stay invisible. 🛝 Webcast Slides https://www.blackhillsinfosec.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/SLIDES_CuriousCaseOfTheComburglar_BreachAssessment-2026-03-12.pdf Chapters (00:00) - Intro - Breach Assessment - The Curious Case of the Comburglar - Troy Wojewoda (02:15) - Agenda (03:02) - What Is a Breach Assessment?
