For those of you who remember the glorious days of DEC and TEC, HIP is that but v2. Many of the same old faces and some fun new ones to boot.
I would love to be there myself but I was already booked from last year to be somewhere else the week of August 23rd/24th so I had to bail, HOWEVER, one of my engineers will be there presenting some cool stuff on Security Descriptors that you may find very interesting (I would love to hear back the feedback after the fact so I can tweak my mentoring/training as needed).
HIP is put together by Semperis which I have mentioned before is one of the ONLY vendors out there that I will evangelize/stump for because I know much/most of the high level folks in that company and likely so do you if you spent time back in the day going to DEC/TEC conferences. Extremely bright and helpful people, all of them. They also have a FREE bad ass powerful AD Indicator of Exposure tool called Purple Knight that is great. I have been using it for a couple of years now for testing things and for telling people to download and use to tighten up their security or after someone has been breached to see if they can sort out the AD specific persistence methods. I keep meaning to write up an extensive post on it because it is so good and cool but I keep getting tied up with other stuff. But trust me, it is damn cool and anyone running AD now a days DEFINITELY needs it to look over their environment. When I first ran it was surprised by how detailed it was, and then I did my joe thing and I spent a good amount of time going through the report line by line writing up input for Semperis to make it even better. Running this tool is like having some of the best people in the industry looking your Active Directory over for problems. Download it, run it. https://www.purple-knight.com/
And again, if you can get to NYC in August, go to HIP. You will not regret that time at all and if I ever have helped you with my tools or information I have freely shared for the last couple of decades, please go just to cheer on my engineer.

P.S. I am polishing up some final updates on AdFind and AdMod so should be releasing within a month or maybe two. That engineer I mentioned found a record 3 bugs in AdMod in one day that I had to deal with and 4 that one week. That is the level of intelligence in play.
