On August 4 and 5, SK Shielders conducted a hands-on training session at Black Hat USA titled "Chrome V8 Exploit Core Guide," focusing on vulnerabilities in V8, the core engine of the Chrome browser. This training was delivered through SK Shielders' proprietary security practice platform, EQST LMS (Learning Management System). EQST LMS allowed participants to access the practice environment directly via a web browser on their laptops, without the need to install any additional programs, offering a high level of convenience to attendees.


In addition, on August 8, SK Shielders hosted a three-hour workshop at DEF CON 33, covering essential analysis skills and hacking techniques required for Chrome V8 engine exploitation. The DEF CON session also combined theoretical lectures with hands-on exercises using representative practice problems, making it easy for beginners to understand the basic principles of browser hacking and learn effective countermeasures.



Kim Byungmoo, Head of Cybersecurity at SK Shielders (Vice President), stated, "Hosting educational sessions for hackers from around the world at two of the world's top conferences is a meaningful achievement that demonstrates SK Shielders' cybersecurity capabilities are recognized on the international stage." He added, "Moving forward, we will continue to proactively research and address global security challenges and establish ourselves as a leading company that proposes response strategies in the rapidly changing cybersecurity environment."
