In 2015, phishing related breaches dominated security news headlines, and will likely remain the leading initial point-of-entry method for 2016. Not surprisingly an upswing in security awareness spending has paralleled the rise in phishing. In this presentation we dive deep into the largest data pool of human phishing susceptibility and also new research about phishing awareness. We will also look at phishing from the attacker’s point of view and look for opportunities to be better defenders.
Let’s examine the evidence and decide if awareness is the problem. Why do users who are aware of phishing continue to fall for it? What are some of the most successful phishing themes? What are some common response rates? And finally, what can conditioned informants (your co-workers) reporting suspicious emails bring to the table?

Art Hathaway - Artificial Intelligence - Real Threat Preventioncentralohioissa
Throughout history we've seen opposing forces skillfully pit strengths against weaknesses until, ultimately, one side succumbs. Holding a position takes considerably more effort than does a single, offensive surge, and attackers are counting on it. The very nature of the cybersecurity attacks we face today are in direct response to the shortcomings of the available tools, knowledge and approaches. The only problem is that we must evolve our defenses as fast as (or faster) than their offenses, and the odds are greatly in their favor. Imagine a football game – with no time limits – determined by your opponent’s first undefended scoring play. Game over. Hmmm…I wonder how that one ends?
Facing next-generation challenges requires a next-generation approach – preferably one that requires no change to your current production environment, never tires, continually evolves, doesn't rely on humans and is 99%+ accurate regardless of Internet connectivity. We'll discuss a solution that shifts the balance in your favor by leveraging artificial intelligence to predict and prevent against malware-born threats so you don't have to.
Jake Williams - Navigating the FDA Recommendations on Medical Device Security...centralohioissa
In January, the FDA has draft recommendations for medical device security after the sale. Among other things, the recommendations tell manufacturers how to evaluate security risks, how to build a program for coordinated vulnerability disclosure program, and how to intake vulnerability reports from researchers. While the security of medical devices is especially important given the potential consequences, we can learn from the FDA recommendations regardless of our industry. Any recommendations adopted by the FDA for medical devices are likely to be implemented across other verticals for their IoT devices as well. Whether you manufacture, purchase, integrate, implement, or generally try to run away from IoT devices, there’s plenty to take away from this session while learning about the future of IoT device security.

This is a presentation introducing the SANS Institute's 20 Security Controls and the Australian Government's Top 35 Mitigation Strategies that I gave to The Small Business Technology Consulting Group in St Paul MN on November 13, 2012
Security threats are growing in volume, scale, and complexity. Not a day passes that we don’t hear about another data breach; and the average organization that’s hacked goes bankrupt within a year. From small and medium-size organizations to Fortune 500 companies, across every industry, no one is immune. It’s no longer enough to keep the bad stuff out (threat protection) or just keep the good stuff in (information protection). This session is a practical discussion on the ever evolving threat landscape, how you can keep up and protect yourself, your organization, and its reputation. It will help you build awareness about the types of resources and sensitive data that your nonprofit has, with tips on practical, accessible steps that you can take to ensure that information is safeguarded.

Phishing is a type of scam designed to steal personal information like usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Scammers do this by sending fraudulent emails or messages that appear to come from legitimate sources and direct users to enter details on fake websites that look like the real ones. They use technical tricks to make the links and websites look authentic. Some ways to avoid phishing include being wary of unsolicited requests for information, checking for security indicators on websites, and using anti-phishing software and spam filters.

Eight Steps to an Effective Vulnerability AssessmentSirius
As we conduct more and more business online, the digital world has become a hacker’s paradise. To combat the growing threat of cyber attacks, many companies are hiring chief information security officers (CISOs) whose main responsibility is to make sure data is secure. Recent high-profile data breaches have demonstrated that it is not a role for the faint of heart.
“We’re like sheep waiting to be slaughtered,” said David Jordan, the CISO for Arlington County in Virginia. “We all know what our fate is when there’s a significant breach.”
IT research firm Gartner predicts that by 2020, 30 percent of Global 2000 companies will have been directly compromised by independent cyber activists or cyber criminals.
In order to protect information assets, CISOs and other security professionals are facing a difficult challenge: they have to keep up with cyber criminals, check off a growing list of compliance boxes, and keep close tabs on the security practices of their partners and employees.
Addressing the sheer volume and evolution of cyber attacks is daunting for even the most security-conscious IT teams. It requires an in-depth understanding of organizational risks and vulnerabilities, as well as current threats and the most effective policies and technologies for addressing them. Only by understanding their risks can organizations target limited security dollars to the technologies and strategies that matter most.
Getting maximum benefit from a vulnerability assessment requires an understanding of your organization’s mission-critical processes and underlying infrastructure, and applying that understanding to the results. To be truly effective, it should include the following steps:
Phishing involves attempting to acquire sensitive information like usernames, passwords, and credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity. Common phishing techniques include email spoofing and creating fake websites that look identical to legitimate ones. Phishing can be prevented by being wary of unsolicited requests for information, verifying website URLs, using security software, and reporting any suspicious activity.
The document discusses the origins and techniques of phishing. It began in 1996 as an alternative spelling of "fishing" to obtain information. Phishing aims to steal sensitive data like passwords and financial information through fraudulent emails or websites. Common tactics include using official logos or threats to elicit urgent responses from victims. The effects include identity theft, financial losses, and erosion of trust in the internet. The document provides examples and statistics on common phishing targets. It also outlines methods to identify and avoid phishing attempts such as checking URLs and being wary of unsolicited messages.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

This study examines data samples from more than 400 PhishMe customers who conducted over 4,000 training simulations during a period of 13 months. The simulation data illustrates the current state of phishing, highly successful attack vectors and prominent phishing themes as well as the factors that impact an employees’ susceptibility to falling victim to an attack, such as time of day and email subject lines.
Base Demographics
Includes Fortune 500 and public sector organizations
Across 23 industries
75% of organizations are training more than 1,000 employees
8 million emails over a 13-month span
Stats for point 4 listed above:
36% opened emails with the subject line “File from Scanner”
34% opened emails with the subject Unauthorized Activity/ Access
Note the highest themes in Figure 1 (Office Communications - 22%) aligns with the highest benchmarking average. Computer Updates, as the lowest response rate in Figure 1, also aligns with the lowest benchmark simulation average (Adobe Security Updates - 9%).
PhishMe further analyzed data from the “Package Delivery” benchmark simulation to understand and compare variances across industries.
As we can see, there is a wide variance in average response rates per industry, more than 40% (Agriculture, Education and Pharma/BioTech) to less than 15% (Travel).
The results highlight the need to carefully consider a company’s industry, as well as, individual culture and standard business processes when viewing phishing simulation results.
PhishMe classified each of its standard templates with a primary emotional motivator. From this we were able to determine, based on template results, which motivators had the highest average response rates.
The highest rates of connection were driven primarily by our e-card type, personal context scenarios.
Reward based phish came in a close second. On the next page, we will take a look at combining motivators and context to create a highly effective training scenario.

As technology advanced, manufacturers turned to optic verification sensors to prevent scams. These mechanisms use a beam of light to register payment as it's dropped in. Ironically, this technology was used against itself to perform a cheat very similar to the aforementioned yo-yo trick.
Intrepid ne'er–do–wells found that if a coin was slightly shaved around its edge, then a slot machine's optic sensor would register it as a normal coin. However, once it got to the machine's comparator mechanism—the piece of equipment that measures size and weight—it would be kicked out because of the minute size discrepancy.
In many machines, the optic sensor worked independently from the physical comparator mechanism. The former would be the sole judge of a coin's authenticity while the latter merely doled out change. Shaved coins were good for a play but would be returned in the change tray as bogus money—it's essentially the yo-yo trick sans string.

Newer machines used optical sensors to count how many coins they dispensed. The light wand would be inserted through the hopper and "blind" that optical sensor so the machine had no idea when to stop spitting out money. All you had to do was play enough until you hit a small payoff, switch on the light, and then wait for the machine to turn that modest return into a mountain of money.
