DESCRIPTION:Title: Phil Young - These Port Scans are Trash: Improving Nmap 
 by Writing New Scripts and Libraries\n\nScheduled Date and Time (Pacific S

 30\n\n\n\n\nAbstract:\n\nDoes anyone know how old Nmap is? If you guessed 
 20 years old\, you’d be wrong! It’s been around since 1997 when it was
  first released in Phrack magazine. Since the beginning\, it's been throug
 h multiple iterations and an entire community has developed around it. One
  of the most important additions to Nmap was the ability to add custom scr
 ipts. Changing Nmap from a simple port scanner to the swiss army knife of 
 network scanners. Oftentimes\, when zero days pop up\, someone will write 
 an nmap script to identify vulnerable servers within minutes. If you’ve 
 ever wondered how people write Nmap scripts\, what it would take to write 
 your own and how you can use them\, this workshop is for you.\n\nAttendees
  in this workshop will learn how to understand and update the Nmap probe f
 ile\, how to write Lua scripts (which Nmap scripting uses)\, how to write 
 Nmap scripts to supplement the probe file\, interact with custom services 
 and ultimately write multiple Nmap scripts to do fun stuff with ports. Onc
 e attendees have a firm grasp of the Nmap scripting engine they will be in
 troduced to writing Nmap libraries for use by their various scripts. This 
 workshop contains many instructor lead labs so that attendees can see thei
 r code in action. To make this workshop worthwhile\, a custom service runn
 ing on a port has been created which the labs will allow you to probe and 
 identify as the course goes on.\n\nNmap is the workhorse behind the scenes
  for so many pentesters\, but the resources for writing scripts are limite
 d. The hope is that by offering this workshop\, more people will be able t
 o write Nmap scripts for the betterment of all hackingkind.\n\n\n\n\nSkill
  Level: Beginner\n\nPrerequisites for students: Some basic understanding o
 f how to write code (python\, C\, Lua\, etc)\, how to use the Linux comman
 d line.\n\n\n\n\nMaterials or Equipment students will need to bring to par
 ticipate: A laptop capable of running a linux VM\n\n\n\n\nBio:\n\nPhilip Y
 oung\, aka Soldier of FORTRAN\, is a leading expert in all things mainfram
 e hacking. Having spoken and taught at conferences around the world\, incl
 uding DEFCON\, RSA\, BlackHat and keynoting at both SHARE and GSE Europe\,
  he has established himself as the thought leader in mainframe penetration
  testing. Since 2013 Philip has released tools to aid in the testing of ma
 inframe security and contributed to multiple opensource projects including
  Nmap\, allowing those with little mainframe capabilities the chance to te
 st their mainframes. He created the Nmap TN3270 library which enabled Nmap
  to scan and fingerprint z/OS mainframes and SNA networks. His hope is tha
 t through education others will create new libraries and scripts to force 
 corporations to fix their shit.\n​
