Let's explore Go as a foundational language for security tools and walk through some typical examples. The content will be inspired by the recent book "Black Hat Go" from No Starch Press (nostarch.com/blackhatgo).
We'll cover the following topics:
* Why Go is a good fit for writing security tools
* Why other languages may be better for writing security tools
* Overview of the Penetration Testing Execution Standard
* Developing a DNS enumeration tool
* Developing a TCP scanning tool
Presenter: Michael Madden
