As delusions of effective risk management for application environments continue to spread, companies continue to bleed large amounts of security spending without truly knowing if the amount is warranted, effective, or even elevating security at all. In parallel, hybrid, thought-provoking security strategies are moving beyond conceptual ideas to practical applications within ripe environments. Application Threat Modeling is one of those areas that, beyond the hype, provides practical and sensible security strategy that leverages already existing security efforts for an improved threat model of what is lurking in the shadows.

Threat Modeling Overview
This session will cover the basic elements of threat modeling, looking at what it does and why it is important. The goal is to provide a high level overview of the process and the use of things like data flow diagrams to look for trust boundaries attacks may come across. We will go through some common threats and hopefully a list of dangers to watch out for when carrying out threat modeling. The session will then work to interactively develop a flow diagram of Amazon.com and possibly another subject if we have time. This will all be based on looking at the system as a user, without any insider knowledge, though Threat Modeling is normally carried out by those who do know the system well.
The Security Vulnerability Assessment Process & Best PracticesKellep Charles
Conducting regular security assessments on the organizational network and computer systems has become a vital part of protecting information-computing assets. Security assessments are a proactive and offensive posture towards information security as compared to the traditional reactive and defensive stance normally implemented with the use of Access Control-Lists (ACLs) and firewalls.
Too effectively conduct a security assessment so it is beneficial to an organization, a proven methodology must be followed so the assessors and assesses are on the same page.
This presentation will evaluate the benefits of credential scanning, scanning in a virtual environment, distributed scanning as well as vulnerability management.
How to Detect a Cryptolocker Infection with AlienVault USMAlienVault
As an IT security pro, unless you've been hiding under a rock, you've heard about ransomware threats like Cryptolocker. These threats are typically delivered via an e-mail with a malicious attachment, or by directing a user to a malicious website. Once the Cryptolocker file executes and connects to the command and control server, it begins to encrypt files and demands payment to unlock them. As a result, detecting infection quickly is key to limiting the damage.
AlienVault USM uses several built-in security controls working in unison to detect ransomware like Cryptolocker, usually as soon as it attempts to connect to the command and control server. Join us for a live demo showing how AlienVault USM detects these threats quickly, saving you valuable time in limiting the damage from the attack.
You'll learn:
How AlienVault USM detects communications with the command and control server
How the behavior is correlated with other signs of trouble to alert you of the threat
Immediate steps you need to take to stop the threat and limit the damage

Evaluating DREAD – Applying D.R.E.A.D. to the results of STRIDE.
This session is a continuation of Parts 1 and 2 and will apply the DREAD model to the threats we found in the previous session. We will start by discussing the elements of the DREAD model that is often used to evaluate risks to systems that are identified in threat modeling. These are Damage, Reproducibility, Exploitability, Affected Users, Discoverability. We will then work through the threats found in the previous session. This will continue the focus on Amazon.com and go to other systems if time is available. This session will expect those present to be involved in finding and suggesting values for each of the DREAD elements as they apply to the covered risks.

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks

What makes blockchain secure: Key Characteristics & Security ArchitectureEC-Council
"Hacking" a blockchain is almost impossible — but what makes these decentralized ledgers so inherently "unhackable"?
A blockchain’s decentralized nature means that its network is distributed across multiple computers known as nodes. This eliminates a single point of failure. In other words, there is no way to “cut the head off the snake” — because there isn’t any head.
This content piece will help you understand on what makes blockchain so secure and in turn revolutionizing!
The CEH v11 program provides an in-depth understanding of ethical hacking phases, various attack vectors, and preventative countermeasures. It will teach you how hackers think and act maliciously so that you will be better positioned to set up your security infrastructure and defend against future attacks.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.

A Brief Introduction to Penetration Testing
1. What is Penetration Testing
• Step by Step Process & Methods
What is Penetration Testing
Step by Step Process & Methods
EC-Council
2. Penetration Test Means...
• A penetration test is a simulated cyber-attack against your
system to check for exploitable vulnerabilities.
• Pen testing can involve the attempted breaching of any number
of application systems, (e.g., application protocol interfaces
(APIs), frontend/backend servers, etc.) to uncover vulnerabilities,
such as Un sanitized inputs that are susceptible to code injection
attacks.
• Insights provided by the penetration test can be used to fine-
tune your WAF security policies and patch detected
vulnerabilities.
EC-Council
3. Penetration Testing Stages
The pen testing process can be broken down into five stages.

PENETRATION
TESTING STAGES
Planning and reconnaissance
Test goals are defined and intelligence is
gathered.
Scanning
Scanning tools are used to understand
how a target responds to intrusions.
Gaining access
Web application attacks are staged to
uncover a target's vulnerabilities.
Maintaining access
APTS are imitated to see if a
vulnerabiliy can be used to maintain
access.
Analysis and WAF
configuration
Results are used to configure
WAF settings before testing is
run again.
4. 1. Planning and reconnaissance
The first stage involves:
• Defining the scope and goals of a test, including the
systems to be addressed and the testing methods to be
used.
• Gathering intelligence (e.g., network and domain
mail server) to better understand how a target works
and its potential vulnerabilities.
EC-Council
2. Scanning
Understand how the target application will respond to
intrusion attempts:
• Static analysis – Inspecting an application’s code to
estimate the way it behaves while running.
• Dynamic analysis – Inspecting an application’s code in a
running state.
3. Gaining Access
This stage uses web application attacks, such as cross-site
scripting, SQL injection and backdoors, to uncover a target’s
vulnerabilities. Testers then try and exploit these vulnerabilities,
typically by escalating privileges, stealing data, intercepting
traffic, etc., to understand the damage they can cause.
4. Maintaining access
The goal of this stage is to see if the vulnerability can be used to
achieve a persistent presence in the exploited system— long
enough for a bad actor to gain in-depth access. The idea is to
imitate advanced persistent threats, which often remain in a
system for months in order to steal an organization’s most
sensitive data.
5. EC-Council
5. Analysis
The results of the penetration test are then compiled into a report detailing:
• Specific vulnerabilities that were exploited
• Sensitive data that was accessed
• The amount of time the pen tester was able to remain in the system undetected
This information is then analyzed by security personnel to help configure an enterprise’s WAF settings and other
application security solutions to patch vulnerabilities and protect against future attacks.
6. EC-Council
Penetration Testing Methods
External testing:
External penetration tests target the
assets of a company that are visible
on the internet, e.g., the web
application itself, the company
website, and email and domain name
servers (DNS). The goal is to gain
access and extract valuable data.
Internal testing:
In an internal test, a tester with access
to an application behind its firewall
simulates an attack by a malicious
insider. This isn’t necessarily simulating
a rogue employee. A common
starting scenario can be an employee
whose credentials were stolen due to
a phising attack
7. Penetration Testing
Methods (contd.)
EC-Council
• Blind testing: In a blind test, a tester is only given the name of the
enterprise that’s being targeted. This gives security personnel a
real-time look into how an actual application assault would take
place.
• Double-blind testing: In a double-blind test, security personnel
have no prior knowledge of the simulated attack. As in the real
world, they won’t have any time to shore up their defenses before
an attempted breach.
• Targeted testing: In this scenario, both the tester and security
personnel work together and keep each other appraised of their
movements. This is a valuable training exercise that provides a
security team with real-time feedback from a hacker’s point of view.
8. Penetration Testing & Web
Application Firewalls
EC-Council
• Penetration testing and WAFs are exclusive, yet mutually beneficial
security measures.
• For many kinds of pen testing (except for blind and double-blind
tests), the tester is likely to use WAF data, such as logs, to locate
and exploit an application’s weak spots.
• In turn, WAF administrators can benefit from pen testing data. After
a test is completed, WAF configurations can be updated to secure
against the weak spots discovered in the test.
