Aviv Mussinger
Aviv Mussinger, an alumnus of the elite 8200 unit with a B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Tel Aviv University, is a seasoned innovator in tech. His R&D prowess spans designing units for Mellanox's first 1Gb switch to building high-frequency trading infrastructures. Notably, Aviv led the research and development at NSO Group, investigating the application layer for security flaws and building a solution around them. Now at Kodem, he leverages this expertise to bring an attacker's perspective to application security and build the world's first AI native application security platform.
Session
Unveil how attackers exploit overlooked vulnerabilities with one of the creators of Pegasus. This talk dives into real-world attack chains, runtime analysis, and adversarial intelligence, arming you with advanced techniques to expose and mitigate threats in cloud-native and distributed systems.
This presentation explores Adversarial Intelligence - an approach that views application security from an attacker’s perspective. Drawing from vulnerability research experience at the NSO Group and building Pegasus, the speaker will highlight how overlooked low and medium vulnerabilities can be combined to execute successful attacks. By examining attack chains and application runtime behavior, attendees will see how gaps often missed by traditional methods are exposed. Attendees will learn about effective tools and techniques for detecting and mitigating these threats, especially in cloud-native and distributed systems. Designed for security practitioners and academics, this session provides a deeper understanding of defending against sophisticated attackers by adopting their mindset.
