SoCal HTCIA 2013!
The 2013 year will be a great year for SoCal HTCIA. Coming off some great training and a fantastic turnout at International, the SoCal HTCIA Board looks forward to bringing exciting new and even better trainings in 2013. Understanding that many of our involved agencies and companies are experiencing very difficult budgets, we on the HTCIA board look to offer some great low cost and free training. This year we hope to see you at these fantastic events.

Upcoming Events
Southern California HTCIA and ISSA Inland Empire May Chapter Meeting
Date: May 28, 2013 from 10:00AM to 12:00PM
Speaker: Chris Sanft
Location:
California State Polytechnic University, Pomona
Summary:
Your organization has been infected with some sort of Malware. Where do you begin your initial investigation? What level of risk does this Malware infection pose to my organization? Is it time to hit the shiny-red button?
We will be investigating and analyzing Malware with AccessData's advanced automated reverse engineering tool Cerberus. As first responders we will be attempting to understand the behavior, the intent of suspected binaries and properties of binaries, (high entropy (obfuscation), IRC, Shellcode, Cryptography), etc.) while gaining valuable, immediate, actionable intelligence to shape our response decisions.
