Think your file shares are safe? Watch how attackers use them to escalate access.

Identity is the top attack surface.

From personal data to critical secrets—file shares often hold everything attackers want. In this live session, we’ll simulate how an attacker can move laterally through local SMB file shares, using exposed files and inherited permissions to compromise high-value accounts.

What to expect

In this session, you’ll discover:

How attackers identify and abuse SMB file shares to access credentials, documents, and config files

How file share exposures are often overlooked in AD environments

A live attack simulation showing how lateral movement unfolds in minutes

Real-world risks tied to misconfigured or overly open shares

How Saporo helps uncover and secure these hidden access paths before attackers do
