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?

This document summarizes an exploratory study on the interaction between Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification and the implementation of the EU Timber Regulation (EUTR) in Romania. It finds that FSC certification has helped companies in Romania prepare for and comply with EUTR requirements, particularly around implementing due diligence systems for assessing and mitigating timber legality risks. However, challenges remain regarding costs, lack of information, and establishing effective due diligence systems in the absence of monitoring organizations. The recent growth in FSC chain-of-custody certification in Romania has also likely been influenced by EUTR, but certification alone does not guarantee full compliance with EUTR or improved sustainable forest management.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

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.
- Taken from http://mentalfloss.com/article/56646/11-ways-people-have-cheated-slot-machines
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.
