Real-world banking fraud: challenge accepted !
Description
Most people still imagine financial fraud as something that requires 0-days, or “elite exploits”.
In reality, the most effective fraud scenarios often emerge when technical meets business logic and trust assumptions.
Infrastructure compromising and application architecture abuses require strong technical skills, but real impact comes from understanding how financial environments and systems actually work.
In this talk, we step away from the traditional security assessment mindset and adopt a true threat-actor perspective, combining technical expertise with banking and business knowledge.
Based on real-world engagements with a very explicit objective, “validate whether an end-to-end banking fraud is possible”, we will show how legitimate features, application design choices, and trust relationships can be chained into realistic, high-impact fraud scenarios.
No exotic exploits, no D.A and 0 theory: just TTPs that actually works to achieve the fraud objectives.
Challenge accepted!
