Topic: <\/strong> Modern Red Teaming & EDR Evasion Techniques<\/p>\n

Watch Now<\/a><\/p>\n

Abstract: <\/strong> The objective of this session is to explore HTML Smuggling\u2014an often overlooked but highly effective technique used by attackers to bypass modern security controls. While the concept has existed for years, it continues to evade traditional defenses such as Antivirus (AV), Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), and even some sandbox technologies. This persistence makes HTML Smuggling a powerful case study for anyone interested in offensive security or defense hardening. HTML Smuggling leverages the way browsers process HTML and JavaScript to deliver malicious payloads directly on the victim’s device, without requiring suspicious downloads that might be blocked. By dynamically constructing or decoding binary data within the browser, attackers can trigger the execution of malware while avoiding many common detection rules that focus on static signatures, file extensions, or network traffic inspection. In this talk, I will explain the core mechanics of HTML Smuggling, walk through different variations of the technique, and highlight how attackers adapt it to defeat security layers. Practical demonstrations will showcase how a benign-looking web<\/p>\n

page can turn into a delivery mechanism for malware implants or loaders\u2014completely under the radar of many defensive products. Attendees will leave with a red team perspective on how this technique is weaponized, along with blue team strategies for detection and mitigation. Whether you are a penetration tester, SOC analyst, or security architect, this session will provide actionable insights into why HTML Smuggling still matters\u2014and how to prepare your defenses against it.<\/p>\n
