Workshop: Basic Attacks & Security Controls in IPv6 Networks

March 11, 2013 (at 11 a.m.)

This is an introductory workshop to attacks in IPv6 networks and associated protection strategies/approaches. We will cover all relevant available tools and play with them, including hands-on sessions for the participants.

For all attacks covered mitigation strategies will be discussed, together with an evaluation as for their actual security benefit and operational feasibility.
