Summaries

Topics Discussed

• General Introductions

  • The session kicked off with a quick introduction to the Security Monkeys community, followed by participant introductions. We set the context for the session, outlining objectives and goals.
  • Introduced the Security Monkeys community, highlighting our mission to learn, collaborate, and share knowledge around cybersecurity and modern security tools like MCP.
• Team Collaboration & Idea Implementation

  • Participants then divided into 8 teams, each focusing on a different idea related to MCP and security. The teams worked hands-on, experimenting with various ideas and tools.
  • After a brief break, the teams continued refining their ideas, implementing solutions, and testing concepts in the second phase.
  • Each team then presented their findings and ideas, followed by an open discussion where everyone shared their experiences, challenges, and feedback.

Projects Showcased

• Kubernetes enumeration and OSINT for red teaming using dorks to identify vulnerabilities
• SSH recon and cloud breach expansion, focusing on host, container, and cloud configurations
• Integrating GitHub repositories and organizations to identify misconfigurations for OSINT and pentesting
• Scanning WordPress vulnerabilities, automating remediation with the WordPress API, and generating reports
• Building a web crawler using headless Chrome to detect vulnerabilities across websites
• Developing an Nmap-based solution to scan endpoints for vulnerabilities and understanding system setups
• Building an MCP server for subdomain enumeration and identifying subdomain takeover risks
• Creating a Secure Prompt Guard to detect and replace insecure code with safer alternatives

Topics Discussed

• MCP-powered Kubernetes Security

  • We explored how to leverage Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Kubernetes security assessments.
  • Discussed Auto-Pilot mode (LLM-driven security assessments), Semi-Auto Pilot mode (with tools and command references), and the associated dangers of using automation for security assessments.
  • We also discussed the importance of human oversight and the potential security risks when automating security processes.
• Backdoors and Breaches: IR War Room Simulation

  • We simulated a real-world security breach incident from start to finish.
  • The group brainstormed various steps in the Incident Response (IR) process, such as detection, containment, eradication, and recovery.
  • Each participant shared their knowledge from different security domains, enriching the group’s understanding of cross-domain knowledge.
  • By the end of the simulation, participants gained incident response skills and were exposed to different tools and techniques for handling real-world security incidents.
