Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

AvengerCon VIII: Information Operations Tactics of "Pig Butchering" Scam Rings
780th Military Intelligence Brigade (Cyber)
Video by Steven Stover
Feb. 29, 2024 | 43:27
Presented by Sean Gallagher

Synopsis:

A multi-billion dollar business for Chinese organized cybercriminals, "pig butchering" scams use an increasingly complex web of hacked and repurposed or fraudulent social media profiles, detection and geolocation evasion tactics and well-scripted emotional appeals to swindle victims out of their life savings globally. This talk will detail the known tools, techniques and practices uncovered over 2 years of research into these scams' operations.

Boiler:

AvengerCon VIII is complete! We had over five hundred attendees, including hundreds remotely, as well as more than thirty presentations, and half a dozen villages.

Thank you everyone who attended, to our dedicated volunteers, and to our friends at the Georgia Cyber Center, CyberFIC, ArCTIC, and ACI! Without all of you this event wouldn't have been what it is, and we're looking forward to seeing you next time!

AvengerCon is a free security event organized by volunteers from the U.S. Army’s 780th Military Intelligence Brigade (Cyber) to benefit the hackers of the U.S. Department of Defense community. The event is open to all DoD service members and employees, and related partners supporting cyberspace missions. AvengerCon features presentations, hacker villages, training workshops, and much more.

The views expressed are those of the presenter, and do not reflect the official position of the 780th Military Intelligence Brigade (Cyber), the Department of the Army, or Department of Defense.
