Presented at GrrCON Cyber Security Summit and Hacker Conference 2023 by

Brian Halbach

This talk covers the methodology used for hunting previously unknown security risks and how to go on an adventure to read between the lines and uncover the juicy secrets the documentation won’t directly tell you. This talk will also help show a way to estimate if a research project will take 50 hours or 50 years as well as strategies on how to effectively learn a new technology and peel back the layers of complexity until you can find out what is really going on under the hood. There will also be examples and discussion from real world case studies. Audience members should be ready to participate and are welcome to share their own stories and thoughts(assuming they are legally allowed).
