Thinking Like a Hacker – Peter Stegeman (Achmea)

Think your SaaS contract and a vendor‑provided pentest keep you safe? Think again.

Vendors proudly present ISO‑certificates, audit reports, and neatly signed security agreements and on paper, everything looks secure.
Yet at Achmea, a situation where everything seemed covered nearly escalated into a serious incident.

In this eye‑opening workshop, Peter Stegeman (Pentester & Ethical Hacker at Achmea) exposes the hidden risks of external (cloud) services and the blind spots that contracts, certifications, and standard pentests simply don’t reveal.

He shares a real Achmea case where things almost went wrong — and explains why traditional assurances often provide a false sense of security.

And then: it’s your turn to think like a hacker.

During the hands‑on workshop, you’ll actively try to break into small websites and servers through real hacking challenges.
👉 No technical expertise required
👉 Bring your own laptop
👉 A standard web browser is all you need

After each challenge, Peter demonstrates how similar vulnerabilities have led to real security incidents within Achmea.

In this workshop, you will:
✅ Discover how hackers really think
✅ See what security paperwork doesn’t reveal
✅ Learn what it truly takes to stay safe in a cloud‑driven world
✅ Experience ethical hacking hands‑on — not just in theory

⚠️ Important: Don’t forget your laptop. Without it, you can’t participate.

Curious how secure your cloud services really are? Join this highly interactive and confronting session.
