SCADA Security: The Five Stages of Cyber GriefLancope, Inc.
Every time a new information technology finds its way into production, it seems as though we end up repeating the same process – security vulnerabilities will be discovered and disclosed in that technology, and users and vendors will deny that the risks are significant. Only after major attacks occur do we really start to see efforts to address the inherent risks in a systematic way.
We’re falling into this exact same trap again with Industrial Control and SCADA systems, but in this case the problem is worse, because the inherent nature of control systems prevents us from applying many of the strategies that have been used to protect other kinds of computer networks.
Join Lancope’s Director of Security Research, Tom Cross, for a look at the five stages of grief that organizations seem to pass through as they come to terms with security risks, and how far we’ve come regarding Industrial Control Systems.

The unique, long-term challenges associated with protecting SCADA networks
How anomaly detection can play a key role in protecting SCADA systems now
IDS monitors systems and networks for malicious traffic and alerts analysts of events of interest like unauthorized connections or uploads. IDS uses techniques like signature-based and anomaly-based detection to examine packets and detect threats, but requires ongoing monitoring and balancing of false positives and negatives. IDS is deployed as a passive sensor to capture traffic but is not a replacement for other security controls and requires resources to operate effectively.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

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.

2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
AirDefense Enterprise™ is the most powerful Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) available. Having pioneered the field of
wireless IPS, AirDefense continues to lead in innovation with 27 patents pending or granted. The AirDefense Enterprise solution provides
complete protection against wireless threats, policy compliance monitoring, robust performance monitoring and troubleshooting, and
location tracking in an appliance that can scale to meet the largest global organizations’ needs. AirDefense uses collaborative intelligence
with secure sensors that work in tandem with a hardened purpose-built server appliance to monitor all 802.11 (a/b/g) wireless traffic in real
time for the highest level of security, rogue mitigation and policy enforcement.
COMPREHENSIVE INTRUSION DETECTION
AirDefense Enterprise provides the most comprehensive detection of wireless
intrusion attempts. By analyzing existing and day-zero threats in real-time
against historical data, AirDefense Enterprise is able to accurately detect
all wireless attacks and anomalous behavior. With context-aware detection,
correlation and multi-dimensional detection engines, AirDefense detects only
meaningful security events and maintains the lowest rate of false positive
alarms. This next-generation wireless protection platform offers the industry’s
most extensive event library, with more than 200 security and performance
events.
Wireless vulnerabilities detected include reconnaissance (ad hoc stations,
rogue APs, open/misconfigured APs), sniffing (dictionary attacks, leaky APs,
WEP/WPA/LEAP cracking), masquerade (MAC spoofing, evil twin attacks/Wi-
Phishing attacks), insertion (man-in-the-middle attack, multicast/broadcast
injection) and denial-of-service attacks (disassociation, duration field spoofing,
RF jamming).
AirDefense allows administrators to easily distribute and process alarms in enterprise deployments:
• Customized alarm views, notifications and priorities
• Flexible querying and filtering
• Third-party integration
AUTOMATED PROTECTION
AirDefense responds automatically to wireless threats by stopping the device
involved before it is able to cause damage to the network. By responding on
both the wireless and wired networks, AirDefense is the industry’s most secure
wireless intrusion prevention solution. AirDefense performs targeted terminations
ensuring that only the correct intruders and rogue devices are disconnected.
The system maintains a record of termination actions to allow for a reliable
audit trail. AirDefense also complies with FCC regulations and eliminates the
liability that could be associated with stopping a device wirelessly.
AirTermination™
AirDefense can mitigate wireless threats via the air by disabling wireless
connections between intruders and authorized devices. AirTermination is
extremely precise ensuring that only the offending device is prohibited from
operating.
Wired-side Termination
AirDefense identifies the switch port to which offending devices are connected and turns it off thus preventing the rogue device from
accessing the network.
3. ELIMINATE ROGUES CONNECTED TO THE NETWORK
Rogue devices are a serious threat to enterprise security. A single rogue
access point can allow an attacker to gain full access to the internal network.
AirDefense can identify any rogue device and disable it automatically. AirDefense
Enterprise identifies rogue devices and determines if they are connected to
the internal network. By analyzing wireless traffic, AirDefense can determine
the level of threat that a potential rogue poses to the organization. This allows
administrators to ignore neighboring devices and focus only on the rogues that
present a serious threat.
This advanced analysis also ensures that neighboring wireless devices are not
misclassified as a rogue. Accuracy is essential as less sophisticated Wireless
IPS systems can easily disable a neighboring access point by mistake opening
the organization to unwanted liability.

COMPLY WITH ENTERPRISE & REGULATORY POLICIES
AirDefense Enterprise allows administrators to define, monitor and enforce wireless LAN policies in the areas of security, performance,
usage and vendor types. Organizations can minimize vulnerability by ensuring that wireless devices are using the proper security
protocols. Mis-configuration is one of the most common causes for wireless security breaches. When a device is found to be non-
compliant, AirDefense notifies the administrator of the exact discrepancy.
AirDefense includes a variety of regulatory compliance reports for retail establishments, healthcare organizations, financial service
providers and government agencies. There are specific compliance reports for the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Standard, Sarbanes-
Oxley (SOX), HIPAA, GLBA, and the Department of Defense 8100.2 Directive. AirDefense administrators can simply print the applicable
report to demonstrate the wireless network’s compliance.
INVESTIGATE INCIDENTS WITH FORENSIC DATA
AirDefense Enterprise provides forensic data that allows administrators to
retrace any one device’s steps down to the minute. With forensic research,
investigating an event takes minutes instead of potentially hours. Cases that
normally would have required administrators to physically visit sites can now
be investigated remotely.
Administrators can rewind and review minute-by-minute records of connectivity
and communication with the network. By storing more than 325 data points
per wireless device, per connection, per minute, AirDefense Enterprise allows
organizations to view months of historical data on a wireless device that was
recently discovered to be suspicious. AirDefense stores important information
such as channel activity, signal characteristics, device activity and traffic flow.
AirDefense can display time of attack/breach, entry point used, length of
exposure, transfers of data and systems compromised.
