DEF CON remains one of the most influential gatherings in the global cybersecurity community — bringing together researchers, practitioners, and attackers pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
Following of the main conference, DEF CON Training provides a focused opportunity to develop practical skills in a hands-on environment, delivered by industry experts.
This year, the SensePost team will be delivering a single, specialised course designed to reflect how wireless attacks are performed in modern environments.
Wireless networks have evolved — and so have the techniques required to attack them.
While many training courses still focus heavily on legacy WPA2 scenarios, real-world environments increasingly rely on enterprise authentication mechanisms and newer standards such as WPA3 and OWE.
0xCD: Wireless Attack Techniques is designed to bridge that gap.
The course focuses on modern offensive approaches against corporate Wi-Fi environments, including:
Rather than revisiting fundamentals, the emphasis is on understanding how attacks work in practice — and how to adapt techniques when faced with real-world complexity.
The training is built around practical application.
Delivered by active red teamers, the course combines theory with hands-on exercises designed to reflect realistic wireless environments.
Participants will work through simulated scenarios that mirror the types of networks encountered during assessments, gaining experience in:
The goal is not just to demonstrate techniques, but to develop the ability to apply them effectively in real engagements.
This course is aimed at professionals who already have a foundation in wireless networking and offensive security, and are looking to extend their capabilities into more advanced and modern attack scenarios.
It is particularly relevant for:
Course: 0xCD: Wireless Attack Techniques
Duration: 2 days
Dates: August 10–11, 2026
Location: Las Vegas
Venue: Las Vegas Convention Center
Format: Instructor-led, hands-on training
The course follows a practical-led approach, with a strong emphasis on applied learning and extended lab access beyond the classroom.
DEF CON continues to be a key event for the offensive security community — not just for sharing research, but for developing skills that translate directly into practice.
If you are attending DEF CON 34 and looking to deepen your understanding of modern wireless attack techniques, we look forward to seeing you there.
