From farm to fork, food production in America is a complex and interwoven system of technologies. This session explores a slice of that system and relies upon food production as an example of multifaceted penetration testing. With a combination of stories and lessons learned, we will discuss and learn from the challenges of scaling up penetration testing and adapting it to unique technologies. This provides us an opportunity to sharpen up on the basics while learning advanced techniques. Moreover, given food production’s reliance upon SCADA and ICS systems, the session will describe how these non-traditional systems can be assessed. All in all, for the defenders, what we learn from a good food fight can be directly applied to securing our own complex networks.
