During the competition this year I served as a point of contact/expertise for our Windows team members and operated our Domain Controller. This year I upped my log-auditing and system hardening game to delay and detect & remediate system compromises. Even though Red Team always wins it's fun to be part of the carnage!
• Created a Windows Server admin procedure list focused on system hardening and disaster recovery
• Worked with the team to protect a corporate network in a Red Team vs. Blue Team exercise
• Collaborated on strategy development and trained team members

My role at Infoblox as a Technical Marketing Engineer is to create vApps in VMware's vCloud system to demonstrate Security Ecosystem integration between Infoblox and other vendors like Palo Alto, ForeScout and Aruba through RESTful API calls. I also create professional, step-by-step demo scripts to help Sales Engineers walk through the process.
Infoblox is a rapidly-expanding, global market leader in critical network infrastructure. DDI (DNS, DHCP, IPAM) is Infoblox's speciality and the data aggregated makes integration with other vendors' security products invaluable. Do you want to know where a device was on the network last month? Do you want to know when one of your machines tries to hit a malware CnC domain and pipe that information to your firewall for automatic remediation? Infoblox can do it all.
