HD has been focused on research related to network discovery and IT asset inventory for the past three years. This work has led to new techniques for device fingerprinting and topology mapping that show enterprise networks in an entirely new light. He will walk through some visualizations of public IP networks (all of Greece, Iceland, etc.) and highlight the weird and unexpected stuff you can find through clever unauthenticated scans.
