Just attended the Microsoft Security Summit Portugal, online.
A very interesting event, touching on a several subjects:

It was with pride that today I received, alongside my colleagues from the IT teams at the National Security Cabinet of Portugal and the National Cybersecurity Centre of Portugal, a collective Commendation, from the General Director, the Rear Admiral António José Gameiro Marques, recognizing our dedication and team work, with helped us to keep the IT infrastrucute fully online and operational, during the recent full blackout in Portugal and Spain.
I’m happy to report I started working at the National Cybersecurity Centre of Portugal (Centro Nacional de Cibersegurança), part of the National Security Cabinet of Portugal (Gabinete Nacional de Segurança), in Lisbon, Portugal!
This has been one my my goals for several years, and it is something I finally achieved!
The C-Days 2024 Cybersecurity conference ended today, an event in which I had the honor of participating.
It was a very interesting 3 days, full of lectures and workshops, in Coimbra, a university city, marking 10 years of the existence of the National Cybersecurity Center!
Today, as part of the C-Days Conference, I attended a very interesting Workshop, related to reverse engineering of malware, presented by a member of CERT.PT (Computer Emergency Response Team), part of the Portuguese National Cybersecurity Centre.
This workshop offers a hands-on approach to reverse engineering malicious scripts on Windows systems, covering JavaScript, VBS, and Powershell. Aimed at cybersecurity technicians, this workshop ranges from static and behavioral analysis to manual deobfuscation techniques using Python. The objective is to enable participants to identify, analyze and collect IoCs of these threats, thus enabling them to mitigate what is one of the most common types of malware used as an entry vector to compromise organizations.
Its next week that C-Days 2024, the biggest Cybersecurity conference in Portugal, organized by the Portuguese National Cybersecurity Centre will happen in Coimbra, Portugal, on the 18th, 19th and 20th of June!
Under the theme of “More Prevention”, this event marks the 10 years of the Portuguese National Cybersecurity Centre, and there will be a talk “looking back” at the past and looking forward towards the future of the organization.
I’m also particularly interested in the “Reverse Engineering Malicious Scripts on Windows” Workshop, presented by Duarte Mortágua from CERT.PT!
I’m already registered for the conference, and looking forward to ti!
