We'll examine the major technological shifts that shaped modern threats—including polymorphism, fileless malware, ransomware, and living-off-the-land techniques—before taking a deep dive into real-world malware currently targeting the web hosting industry. Drawing on current threat hunting and incident response experience, the session will demonstrate how attackers operate today, how defenders detect them, and what lessons history still teaches us about protecting modern infrastructure. **Speaker:** Robbie Abraham Robbie Abraham is the Cyber Threat Operations Lead at Newfold Digital, the parent company of brands including Crazy Domains, Digital Pacific, and Network Solutions. With more than 20 years of experience in the web hosting industry, Robbie leads threat hunting and cyber threat intelligence initiatives focused on protecting Newfold's global infrastructure while contributing intelligence that helps strengthen the security of the broader internet community. **How to find us on the day?** An organiser will be on the bottom floor until 6:15 to help attendees access the lifts. # **Speed hiring** There is an opportunity for potential employers to do an impromptu 30-second description of their open role.

Unhurried Conversations at the Pub

In an unhurried conversation, there is time to think differently and connect with people in a refreshing way. Unhurried isn't always slow. It offers a pace where people find it easy to join in and not feel crowded out. And listening can be as satisfying as talking. We use a simple meeting format to make this happen. https://www.unhurried.org/ This newly created event is at a new venue, the Keg & Bew Hotel at Surry Hills. We meet on the 2nd floor around 6:15pm. Food and drinks are available, before and after, on the ground floor and roof top.
